Yellowfin 7 BI software to balance needs of self-service Data Discovery and Enterprise IT

Global Business Intelligence (BI) and analytics software vendor, Yellowfin, will introduce new administrative and management functionality in the latest version of its BI platform, Yellowfin 7. Yellowfin 7 will be unveiled in a series of live Webinars throughout Monday 25 and Tuesday 26 November 2013.

Yellowfin’s Administration Console has been completely re-written for Yellowfin 7, delivering an analytics platform that simultaneously supports the self-service needs of end-users while ensuring ease-of-management for IT personnel – even for enterprise-wide deployments.

“Those who attend the launch of Yellowfin 7 will discover a fine balance between the needs of Enterprise IT and self-service Data Discovery users,” said Yellowfin CEO, Glen Rabie.

Rabie said that international analyst firm, Gartner, had predicted that the most successful business analytics products would find a balance between data exploration and enterprise administrative requirements, and that Yellowfin had risen to the challenge.

“We know that business users are demanding the ability to independently explore their data – whenever and wherever they want,” said Rabie. “But, we also know that the most successful analytic implementations are pervasive. To effectively and efficiently manage an enterprise-wide BI deployment, you’ve got to streamline the entire administration process.

“For Yellowfin 7, we’ve worked hard to produce an administration function that’s pleasurable to use – every component is quicker and easier to manage. BI management and administration is a perpetual task – so why should it be tiresome and thankless?"

Yellowfin 7’s new Administration Console consolidates a range of management functions, delivering Yellowfin administrators a single comprehensive overview of their Yellowfin instance. Key metrics such as usage statistics – including number of users, logins as well as dashboard and report views – enable administrators to easily optimize the management and usage of their Yellowfin environment.

Yellowfin will host three Yellowfin 7 release Webinars throughout Monday 25 and Tuesday 26 November 2013.
