SHARE

It's time again for some new improvements and additions to our charting platform. We invested in our web app to facilitate online collaboration and made this available as a free plan so charts can be easily shared with more people. An icon chart was added to the chart library and the styling options were improved. 

Online collaboration

With more and more people working from home, remote teams need to stay productive no matter where they’re working from. By stepping up our investments in our web app, Datylon now also helps you automate your workflow and collaborate online:

  • You can share chart templates with other people who can then view, edit and update your templates with new data — without losing your styling efforts;
  • Charts and reports can be published online, shared via email, social, embedded on your blog or website, or exported in different formats.

Datylon Chart Maker web app supports online collaboration

Learn more about the differences between our web app and Datylon for Illustrator in this article.

 

Free plan

Because your charts matter even more when they are being shared, we created a Free Plan that includes all functionalities in our web app. Cancel anytime. No credit card required.

View our pricing plans or contact sales for more info.

 

New chart: icon chart

Icon charts are great for showing your audience an overall comparison between usually smaller sets of data. You can scale and color icons for this chart type: two properties that are very popular in business communication or media.

  • Negative text tracking enabled for labels
  • Palettes can be filtered down to 2 colors
