Will Data Analysis Helper process historical records in my org?
Yes! In addition to real-time updates, Data Analysis Helper has built-in batch processes that run when you first install the app.
If I use the Default Configuration when I install an analytics package, can I still customize it later?
Yes! From the Data Analysis Helper home page, select the package and click the ‘Edit’ button to make desired changes.
Is Data Analysis Helper native to Salesforce?
Yes! Data Analysis Helper and the analytics packages are 100% native to Salesforce. Your data is not stored or processed anywhere else but in the Salesforce cloud/your org. We do not have access to your data unless you explicitly grant us login for troubleshooting purposes.
Can I use the information displayed in standard Salesforce reports?
Yes! Since all data is stored on a record in your Salesforce environment you may create additional reports and dashboards that leverage the data created by Data Analysis Helper.

Does Data Analysis Helper work in Professional Edition Orgs?
Yes, Data Analysis Helper can be installed in the following Salesforce Editions: Group, Essentials, Professional, Enterprise, Unlimited, Force.com, Developer and Performance. For Professional Edition Salesforce orgs and lower, some features of the app rely on API and may be limited due to Salesforce restrictions on the type of Org. Please contact us for full information on features/functionality that are affected and what workarounds can be used.
Do the analytics packages come with pre-built charts?
Yes!
I deploy Apex code into production. Will Data Analysis Helper interfere with this process?
No, Data Analysis Helper code runs in it own namespace like other managed applications. Managed apps have their own code coverage requirement and all unit tests within a package must successfully pass in a development org before the package may be created. We recommend that you run all your unit tests with the "RunAllTests = false" attribute if you are using Data Analysis Helper as this is the Salesforce default. This default setting will prevent any local discrepancies (e.g. custom required fields, validation rules) from impacting your code deployments as our unit tests will fail if you have custom required fields, validation rules, etc. As long as you have the "RunAllTests = false" attribute set, you can deploy your apex code as normal. Changing to "RunAllTests = true" will not cause Data Analysis Helper install or performance issues. Here is an official statement from Salesforce on this topic:
Managed package code is not included in the required code coverage calculation for deployment. The 75% requirement is on all Apex code in your org's namespace. Managed code has its own namespace, so it is not included.
When deploying to production, all tests in your org's namespace will be run. Managed tests will not be run by default.
If the deployment package explicitly marks runAllTests to true, managed tests will also run. These will need to execute without any failures should the flag be set. Despite this, the 75% requirement for code coverage is still only on unmanaged code.
If for some reason you are concerned with setting "RunAllTests = false", we guarantee that Data Analysis Helper will still function correctly.
