  • 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.

Usability
Vertafore
Because I have the feeling that some improvements should be done to the software itself but the overall experience is quite good for the paid price and the information and analysis you can received from the system

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.

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.

Alternatives Considered
Vertafore
Vertafore had a cleaner platform all around. The user interface was far superior and the functionality seemed to be leaps and bounds ahead of the competition. Everyone was pleased with the sales team and the responsiveness. We felt the tool integrated very well with our existing internal tools and software.

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.
