  ### 6. Not great

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Hans E. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2023

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

It's pretty easy to use, visually it looks good.

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

There's absolutely no improvements to the core functionality, there are requests that have been up for over 10 years and have been requested dozens if not hundreds of times and they ignore it, instead they add bells and whistles nobody uses or cares about and that barely work. The support is a nightmare, the job of the tech support seems to be for people to leave them alone, they ask for 10 zoom meetings and for the logs over and over for something that doesn't warrant it, when it's broken in whatever system or configuration you run it, after you go through the hoops of the multiple zoom meetings and submitting logs over and over again it doesn't get any better, because then they just never get back to you or they get back to you several months later asking everything from scratch. The worst is that the application goes progressively slower the longer you use it, going from milliseconds of opening a view or just the browse page to 10+ seconds, and although we've complained about it and have asked for solutions for years, from various different contacts, there has been 0 help. Something is rotten with the configurational database of Yellowfin, there are a lot of inefficient nested queries and missing indexes and as soon as it gets under a heavier load (multiple people creating, updating, deleting, copying reports, editing views etc) the performance goes out of the window. You can't rely on something if the browse page takes 10 seconds to open alone, and there's absolutely no solutions/suggestions provided, we were ready to try anything, switching OS, db engine, whatever, but nothing.

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Reporting and dashboards.

  ### 7. Best Optimized Software

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dileep C. | Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 13, 2023

The process Intelligence integration helps user to analyze the data in ease

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

This sometimes provides the wrong output or the incorrect output, that is far away from the desired.

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

**Official Response from Jacqueline King:**

  ### 8. Powerful Tool with Room to Grow

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Richard S. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2023

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

The expansive ways one can create dashboards, run reports, dive into all types of disparate data, and create graphs and charts on the fly.

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

The dropdown menus are great until they become rabbit holes. It would be nicer to have more finite ways to have less generalized filters. That said, this that may be a feature addressable at launch and/ or the way your organization is set up, but nonetheless, my world. The other improvement I see is with the graphing and charting. It would be nice to have more options around the infographics and charts, but this may be something to address during implementation.

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The ability to see the raw and finite data across our client base is amazing. The breadth of the info available is also incredible.

**Reviewed Date:** August 24, 2022

Yellowfin BI stays a pioneer in the rival industry. All the time they have competing and ingenious ideas, which makes them the top in the market. In addition to that, they have a very helpful, knowledgeable, and fast support team.

Maybe the only point that needs to be improved is to enhance the API so that it's simpler for developers to implement it in their solutions.

  ### 12. Yellowfin BI is a very powerful and easy to use analytics engine.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Trevor T. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2020

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

The back-end set up of the data warehouse is powerful and flexible.  Report generation is simple with plenty of user-friendly features.  Yellowfin is an innovative and responsive organisation.  It is a pleasure partnering with them.

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

Dashboards and other visualisation tools are not as user-friendly or flexible as some other BI systems.  Row level security is still not supported.

**Recommendations to others considering Yellowfin BI:**

Don't be swayed by just the front-end of a BI system.  Look at how easy the system is to set up and distribute and flexibility.  Yellowfin BI's strength is in these areas.

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The customers we work with (mostly libraries) use Yellowfin BI to gain in-depth understandings of their collections, how they are being used and how they can be improved.

  ### 13. User friendly and easy to learn and adopt.

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 26, 2022

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

User Interface, dashboards, report design.
New Enhancements

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

It's taking a long time to implement new ideas/suggestions.
Limited knowledge base.
User community is small.

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using Yellowfin BI as in house reporting tools to fulfill the management reporting needs - in terms of reports and dashboards

  ### 14. YF representatives needs better knowledge about the whole aspect of the application.

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Banking | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

The interface, the experience, and the drag and drop is great, the visualization is awesome.

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

View builder is old with loads of issues, Reference codes area is hidden and not always being promoted by representatives, and when having huge views there are lots of bugs and slowdowns.
There is a need in better knowledge about the whole aspect of the application by their representatives, and there's a need in revamping the whole application from the ground up to avoid current bugs.

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Visualizations at best, calculations that need to be done above the SQL code, having the self-service for the company users which are not advanced in SQL by a simple drag and drop. this is great!

**Official Response from Regan Brown:**

> Thanks for your feedback, and apologies for our delayed response. 

We are glad that you are getting value from Yellowfin. The view builder is currently undergoing a redesign. The process of connecting to and modeling data will be streamlined and simplified in a future release.

Please reach out to our Customer Experience team at CXTeam@yellowfin.bi to ensure you are getting the support you need around utilizing your large views.

  ### 15. High Hopes, Still a Long Way to Go

**Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 06, 2022

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

Yellowfin appears to be the platform that is most comparable to Google Data Studio in the sense that it is open canvas and has way more design capability than other major BI tools like Looker, Tableau, and Sisense, which are all locked to the grid.  The vision for Yellowfin is great (open canvas, signals, NLQ).

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

Yellowfin editing and dashboard building is extremely cumbersom. You need to be extrememly well versed in their platform to get started and bring anything to life. There's virtually no in between from getting started to power user. If you want anything production ready you need to be an expert, or leverage an outside firm to support you from start to finish. The team that can support you is also a single agency located in Australia. They are helpful, but have limited resources to support all Yellowfin customers.

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Yellowfin is working to build a no code solution to empower anyone to create and share data storys without the need for complex SQL, Data Scientists, and engineers...bringing this to life is still in progress though.

  ### 16. Valuable speed for development, with downsides

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 25, 2022

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

Speed to develop new features and dashboards users can actually find valuable. Learning curve is a bit harsh specially if you don't have technical background, but if you do, you can achieve results quickly.

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

The learning curve is a bit too hard for non-technical people. Documentation is good but falls short of what I'm used to seeing in top-notch projects (even open-source projects).

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Allowed me and my team to build dashboards for our users quickly. This allowed us to get feedback quickly and go to market quickly. Gathering this feedback fast was very important for us.

  ### 17. Lots of Potential with this tool with some maturity/growth still left to do.

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

The tool is user-friendly - and produces consistent analytics based on base layers and views of data. A novice user can product a decent report without training if the underlying data views are correct.

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

The user development interfaces have functionality scattered which create a sharp learning curve for where certain features and functionality are stored. Additionally, there is no way to create blank "canvas" reports for text and headers that should be basic functionality. Lastly - there is not a consistent and standard best practice way to conduct release management from environment to environment.

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Yellowfin BI is helping to present disorganized and disjointed data more cleanly to help us review and analyze system data and metrics across our application which will provide insights to help our product grow and mature.

  ### 18. A BI alternative that deserves a chance, just one will do

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Carter K. | Creative Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 05, 2022

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

In my organization we are using Yellowfin to create dashboards and reports where we can capture data collected from different sources and its performance has been great. We have integrated it with other predictive analytics tools and the process has been amazingly fast. Yellowfin's user interface is very attractive, I like it a lot and it has features that are good for the whole company such as predictive analytics, advanced data analysis, dashboard customization, queries and reporting, just to mention a few or at least the ones that are important for us.

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

I wish it had good tutorials to make it easier to train new users. I would also like its cost to be a little more accessible.

**Recommendations to others considering Yellowfin BI:**

It saves a lot of time and effort for users who need to process any amount of data, automate analytical processes and find the best ways to present data. Highly recommended.

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Yellowfin is the data visualization tool of choice in my organization because of all the time it saves us when we need to load large data sets, analyze them, make presentations or simply create dashboards and reports. Data analysis automation has helped us a lot in terms of saving time and energy while allowing us to take advantage of all the information we have at our fingertips to make decisions.

  ### 19. Easy to use, highly customizable reporting

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 25, 2022

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

The report builder gives users many options when creating a report. Once you get your bearings there are plenty of features that let you do cool tricks.

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

More helper tools for building custom free-hand SQL would be great. It's very powerful, but it's kind of a guessing game if you don't know the internals of your view and/or are not very familiar with SQL.

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It gets information in front of our stakeholders without a lot of effort. Also, the data in Yellowfin is really useful, but I'm not a YF admin. Broadcasts and SFTP features are amazing because I can also get data into a tool I control, like Power BI.

The thing I like most about Yellowfin BI is that it contains the resources I need in one spot. I can search through the site to find answers to my questions pretty easily.

Sometimes, I cannot find the answer I need, but this is to be expected, otherwise the site would be too large.

I'm not sure of ALL of them because we haven't upgraded yet, but I know that they fixed the column width issue.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kevin F. | Offer Manager, Global Solutions Architect, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 02, 2021

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

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 Yellowfin BI?**

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 Yellowfin BI 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.

  ### 33. Business Intelligent Reporting

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** William S. | Head: Consulting and Innovation, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 09, 2021

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

An exceptionally capable reporting  tool

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

Graph rendering can be more robust and smoothing may be improved

**Recommendations to others considering Yellowfin BI:**

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).

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Deep analytics and ability to present complex embedded reports with easy integration into HOOZin platform

  ### 34. Overall Experience of working on Yellowfin is Good but can do better

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 05, 2021

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

1. Canvas Part of the Dashboards
2. Simple UI
3. Linking and connectivity

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

1. Views get corrupted if it made by Freehand SQL and goes for editing 
2. lower Version to higher version Export / import creates an issue of breaking

**Recommendations to others considering Yellowfin BI:**

Good, but it can be done better
There are certain limitations while dealing with User setups like LDAP users, Dashboard level access; User Groups get broken very often, Views made with freehand SQL get broken. Everything is not possible with single and multiple table selections

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using Yellowfin For our client's Data representation which helps them to visualize their data in a different format.  Decisions are made on those cumulative data

  ### 35. Powerful tool but it's difficult to diagnose issues

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Entertainment | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 18, 2021

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

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 Yellowfin BI?**

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.

**Recommendations to others considering Yellowfin BI:**

No recommendations for others

**What problems is Yellowfin BI 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.

  ### 36. Excellent

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mitchell C. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 30, 2020

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

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 Yellowfin BI?**

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.

**Recommendations to others considering Yellowfin BI:**

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 problems is Yellowfin BI 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.

  ### 37. Excellent BI Software

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sudeep S. | Software Engineer - Telematics Solutions, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 18, 2020

**What do you like best about Yellowfin BI?**

Yellowfin is an amazing software to present analytics data reports and dashboards with tons of customization and flexible options. 

I like the way Yellowfin comes with an inbuilt user profile management with support for standard and custom roles, permissions features. These features are very much valuable when working in a multitenant environment.

The support for dynamic filters, content loading and refreshing and Geographical map based reports some of the specific features, which adds a lot of value to our Analytics platform!

The overall administration part is very intuitive and simple to manage.

Almost all admin tasks can be done from a single top menu based screen and collection of links.

Apart from the software, Yellowfin support is always easy to reach out and deal with. The support team has always been helpful in getting engaged  for troubleshooting, questions etc. Their overall response time is excellent and team members are highly knowledgeable to resolve problems!

**What do you dislike about Yellowfin BI?**

There are only few main areas for dislike

The user interface can be made a bit more interactive and catchy to eyes!

Lack of having support of multiple themes, more skin colors etc makes reports look a bit dull on user interface. 
A bit  of performance improvement may further help in a better user experience.

The user interface looks a bit thick.. quite similar to VB forms. A lift of user interface to look more like modern and rich web portal may add significant value to user experience.

**What problems is Yellowfin BI solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using Yellowfin for Logistics based telemetry data analytics to showcase how effectively the assets are being utilized along with various interesting reports showing trends using several business factors.
