What does the data history mean?
We load all the tasks and all the history for each data source. You can create charts with all of your tasks in all plans. For example, you can create a Task list that contains all the tasks in the selected data sources.
When you create a chart that shows a historical trend, the length of the history is limited according to the plan. For example, 12 months of data history means that the trend can extend a maximum of 12 months into the history.
You can see the plans and their limits on the pricing page.
