We have to calculate most all Lab / Pilot / Proposals sizing and results. The automated calculations in [Excel4apps] is awesome, as once you are familiar with them, it is easy to quickly implement them when needed.Incentivized

Easy to install and maintain. After the initial installation, there is little involvement by the technical administrators.Cloning production to a test environment does not require any additional setups unlike Oracle EBS which does.Loading data and reporting on this data is handled via EXCEL spreadsheets which is the "language" of our financial users.Incentivized

It is possible but difficult to retrieve data or set criteria from different module into a single report or retrieve. If it is more user friendly instead of having to create a complex formula to retrieve the data, this function will be utilized more often.It will be nice to have visual (graphs, etc.) report template availableIt is helpful if we can retrieve data for a range of date, instead of just YTD, PTD etc. and multi-year data all at once for comparison too.Incentivized
The ability to predefine a colour for a specific graph as a selection option dynamically.The ability to customise the label of a chart, especially with respect to performance related reporting graphs we need an increase in dynamic charting options to meet our more specialised requirements.
I am not a power user of Excel. So I find Exel4apps a friendlier version of the things that I could do on Excel and making it easier with a magic wand.Incentivized
As mentioned previously, if a newer company is looking for a strong, polished BI tool, Yellowfin would be a great software vendor to consider. Unfortunately, the high cost might be a barrier to these newer companies who dont have any legacy software/agreements such as an EA agreement with Microsoft.Incentivized

I have not needed support yetIncentivized
They have good support in what they provide. But what they provide is not what is promised. I would stay with them if I can. Be very careful before signing up with them. They are not what they seem in the sales pitches. Be very careful and make sure you test and test before you sign up.
Yellowfin provides 3 levels of training to support consumers, business analytics, developers and Administrations :Yellowfin BI Training - Level 1 (Exploration) Yellowfin BI Training - Level 2 (Advanced) Yellowfin BI Training - Level 3(Expert)
Web-based training for large audiences for Level 1 and Level 2 I would suggest
Design the data model and views for each dashboard is very important and it is the success factor Configuration of cluster for large implementation
Excel4apps is more user friendly and can retrieve data much easier and in a nicer format than Jaspersoft. Qlik Sense is useful and have more visual reporting and dashboard. However, it is usually used for higher level of analyses and review. Yardi is used for specific purpose, which is different than Excel4apps. Excel4apps can pull all the financial data from Oracle, including billing and collections.Incentivized
Yellow Fin platform is browser agnostic and is accessible from desktops as well as mobile devices. It is very simple and fast, it is integrated with Big Data, clients do not require a great training. It just works. But it’s easier to have things on the cloud, especially if you need to use different computers. Yellow Fin lacks the cloud feature.Incentivized
