Dealing with time series?
dataZoa has a radically different approach.
Here's what you need to know...
- When you work with open data from Web sources (like the UN, EIA, BLS, Kids Count, etc.):
- All series are completely harmonized, no matter the source
- You get your data with one click
- Your series update automatically - no more exporting and importing
- When you work with your own data series:
- Your series are fully harmonized as well - they work together, along with Web data
- As you add or update values, your calculations and displays update automatically.
- More generally:
- Save many, many, many, many, many, many hours of data drudgery
- You never forget a thing - your table and charts are already updated
- Your work goes right where you want it - phone, Web, email, blogs, open or restricted
- No programming - if you can use a spreadsheet you can use dataZoa
