Make different styles of charts
Beam makes it simple to create the 4 most commonly used types of charts.
Make Pie Charts
Despite its detractors, the pie chart (as well as its cousin, the donut chart) is one of the most recognizable charts today and can be easily interpreted by most people. It’s an excellent choice if you are trying to portray a percentage or composition.
Make Bar Charts and Column Charts
The majority of data visualization deals with comparing sets of data points. Anything that can be counted and categorized can be easily visualized using a bar or column chart. Most multiple choice survey answers can be visualized this way.
Make Line Charts
The most common chart to display time series data is the line chart. If you have many data points, the line chart is the most effective one to depict trends over time.
Choose from a range of color schemes
Beam allows you to select from a range of different preset color themes, so you don’t need to worry about customizing your charts manually every time you make one.
Customize your chart with different fonts and sizes
Because not everyone wants their charts to look exactly the same, you can change your font type, size and style to suit your own tastes.
Copy and paste your data
Beam makes it easy to visualize your data. Simply copy and paste your statistics directly from an Excel document or a Google Spreadsheet.
