Field Parameters or Personalize Visuals – Choosing the Right Aircraft for Your Self-Service Journey

In the world of self-service reporting, there are different aircraft to take you to your data destination. Field Parameters, much like a robust and versatile aircraft, provide a structured framework for dynamic data analysis. On the other hand, Personalize Visuals behave like a customized aircraft that offers a more personalized and flexible approach to dynamic data analysis. Join us as we embark on a journey toward successful self-service reporting, regardless of the 'aircraft' you choose to board.
