⚠️ Single landing page, uniting all aspects of Anaplan: On May 23rd we will be making Home the default landing page for all Anaplan users. This unites the modelling experience with the New UX, bringing everything together for ease of use.
KPI Sparklines: We are planning on enhancing the capabilities of KPI cards further introducing the ability to add a simple trend line so you can see the performance trend of your KPI.
Scatter / Bubble plot: Exciting New visualization for the Anaplan platform. The scatter plot allows you to show a relationship between two variables. It is the best visual for showing non-linear relations and correlations. Such as advertising spend Vs sales. We are extending the scatter plot further to enable you to size the marker so you can create a bubble plot. This enables you to add a third dimension to you data. You can then plot the points and size according to their values such as risk Vs effort for opportunities with the size of the bubble representing the value of the opportunity. This new visual will be available in the New UX only.
KPI sparklines: KPI cards can be accompanied by a ‘sparkline’ to reflect the change in value over time.
KPI scaling: You’ll see KPI scaling settings reflected in the mobile app, for a seamless web to mobile transition.
