Yellowfin Identified as Leading Agile BI Vendor in Gleanster Report
Press release from: Yellowfin
Global Business Intelligence (BI) vendor, Yellowfin, has been identified as a leading vendor of Agile BI solutions in a new benchmark report by analyst and research firm, Gleanster.
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, October 25, 2012 -- The Agile Business Intelligence report compared 37 of the globe’s leading Agile BI solutions, identifying Yellowfin as leader across all four of the study’s key comparative criteria:
Ease of Deployment;
Ease of Use;
Features and Functionality; and
Overall Value.
The report, based on survey responses from 367 organizations, can be downloaded for free from the Gleanster website: www.gleanster.com/reports/reports/agile-business-intellig...UIdpCxhX9yA
“Today, businesses of all sizes are turning to self-service BI tools, particularly those that incorporate visualization and other advanced user interface techniques to achieve greater ease of use and faster and better access to information and insights,” said Gleanster in a statement. “This is partly a response to stretched IT staffs that cannot keep up with the constant demand for new reports and analysis.”
Yellowfin CEO, Glen Rabie, said that Yellowfin’s recognition as a top-performing vendor in the October 2012 study was reflective of its sustained development strategy.
“At Yellowfin, our number one goal is to continue making Business Intelligence as easy to use and consume as possible. The key to successful BI deployments, and a strong return on investment, is to empower as many decision-makers as possible with the ability to understand and act on fact-based information in shorter timeframes – that’s what Yellowfin and Agile BI are all about.”
Gleanster Research Director and report co-author, Jeff Zabin, echoed Rabie’s sentiments regarding Agile BI, stating that “Agility speaks to the acceleration of decision-making cycles and the need to put the right data and tools in the hands of business users.”
The report “offers a comprehensive look at how Top Performers are using Agile BI to enable continuous, on-demand reporting, empower non-IT professionals with data access and drive faster, smarter business decisions.”
