Zing now supports heatmap formatting on data tables – letting you see at a glance outlier values, and the the distribution of values. A heatmap represents data values in a table format, using varying colors to signify differences in intensity, frequency, or magnitude.
Whether you’re tracking sales performance across regions, customer funnels , or equipment reliability in industrial settings, heat maps make trends and anomalies easy to see at a glance.
