Business Intelligent Reporting

What do you like best about the product?
An exceptionally capable reporting tool
What do you dislike about the product?
Graph rendering can be more robust and smoothing may be improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Deep analytics and ability to present complex embedded reports with easy integration into HOOZin platform
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do not be deterred from learning the layout of the tool and getting to mastery - it is well worth the effort. Plug-in formatting for reports (libraries) are available to augment the look and feel of reporting and the integration into report presentations (live data updates) is an excellent time saver ... use this to improve your efficiency. Integration into the HOOZin plaform creates a powerful way to share role relevant content within user communities which should definitely be investigated to simplify access to role relevant infomration and exchange between connected communities to maintain information security and confidentiality considerations. Training is essential to ensure that optimum value is derived from the tool - make sure that the users are aware of and use the predictive capability and data analyser functions which is considered best of breed. Definitely a cut above the rest and the support locally in SA and abroad is phenominal. Make sure that your plug-in minimum version requirements are considered before choosing a plug-in to ensure it works first time (the support team is great to assist with difficulties and turn-around is quick and responsive).

Powerful tool but it's difficult to diagnose issues

  • May 18, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Yellowfin's report builder is easy to use and is user friendly, especially for people like myself with limited BI experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
Diagnostics are difficult to come by. Oftentimes queries will be expensive and reports will either load slowly or not load at all, but there's no way for me to tell if that's because the query itself is expensive/not optimized, if the connection to the datasource is lacking, or if Yellowfin is running slowly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to visualize our data on behalf of clients and give them a real-time window into sales. The main benefit is being able to report on a complex data schema in a way that is digestible for our clients.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
No recommendations for others

YellowFin Product Review

  • January 30, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The richness of its features and functionality plus its simplicity of installation and use.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a bit too open out of the box security wise so we had to implement some mitigations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to get a BI reporting tool out to our clients' end users. YellowFin ticked all of the boxes and enabled us to get a solution to our clients where their users are empowered to create and change reports as well as produce them.

Yellow Fin for Plant Advisor

  • January 03, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Extensibility and customization to meet corporate needs from a UI perspective. BI Functionality is good and is believed to address the needs for quick changes and enhancements based on actual client needs. Future use of signals and connection to other databases other than the plant advisor is of real interest and value.
What do you dislike about the product?
Training is weak and needs improvement. Web based tutorials are a must vs, going through a pdf file. Training team is on the other side of the world which is a challenge. Also the need to acquire and build-up an environment that allows one to learn the data modeling capabilities of data views is also an impediment. Can the AWS environment be extended?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Consistent data presentation and summarization to our industrial process customers. There is a great deal of interest and we are looking to sales release in early 2021. First customers are also planned for this time period.

Excellent

  • November 30, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Yellowfin is incredibly easy to work with. Everything is super intuitive and well designed. The support they provide through training, documentation, YouTube, community forums, and tickets is nothing short of amazing. As a new user, it has been a delightful experience working on getting our app up and running!
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice if there were an easier way of changing the colors of images used for buttons, etc without having to change images completely. It inhibits some of the branding changes we'd like to be making for our client organizations, but is far from a problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are giving our clients the tools to perform their own reporting. This will give them the ability to quickly make new reports and reduce time spent with our team working on requirements and design. The broadcasting functionality will allow our clients to open up reporting without having to increase their user access.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Have a well thought plan for implementing your client organizations. If using a master/template report or view in your primary organization, make sure you've reviewed everything prior to exporting/importing into the organizations. While the import process is excellent, it will save you time on the back-end to not have to re-import for new changes, or update individually in each organization after the fact.

What do you like best about the product?
The customization and the ability to create your own reports. The broadcast functionality.
What do you dislike about the product?
The upgrade process is super painful and a lot of manual manipulation has to be done in order for reports built in previous versions to work correctly in newer ones.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Yellowfin helps to automate data collection for our clients where previously manual data entry was required. Saves them time and effort.
