Capterra’s researchers use a mix of verified reviews, independent research and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or speak to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.
Capterra carefully verified over 2 million reviews to bring you authentic software and services experiences from real users. Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI. Learn more.
Capterra lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Capterra is free for users. Software and service providers pay us for sponsored profiles to receive web traffic and sales opportunities. Sponsored profiles include a link-out icon that takes users to the provider’s website.

Yellowfin is ideal for software vendors/OEMs who are looking to embed analytics into their applications, as well as for management and operational reporting for enterprise organizations.
SplashBI helps organizations make the very best business decisions by providing instant access to DATA from disparate systems in the form of reports, visualizations, & trends. See your DATA in Action!
Having more than 40 of our customers using Yellowifn, mostly embedded we have had great feedback from these customers and a great working relationship with Yellowfin.
While the lack of cloud services and coding to customize are minor issues, we do not have much to complain about. It’s very user-friendly and we have easily been able to teach others how to use it.
Easy to setup (<4 hours), very cost effective for multiple users, easy to connect to any database, great online training and tools to get up to speed, and easy to create reports/tabs/dashboards.
I really liked Yellowfin BI, no big problems using it so far.
It is also excellent that clients do not require in-depth training. The integration capacity of Yellowfin with Big Data is excellent.
We found the communication and ability to share comments, dashboards, reports very useful. That functionality really helped our distributed team make forward progress within our data sets.
The team we have worked with is very professional and willing to help in any way necessary. When we have opened help desk tickets they have been reviewed and resolved in a timely manner.
Joining tables is still something I struggle with. Mostly it is because I have not taken the time to learn it.
The reporting tool is very nice to use and a real progress compared to what we had before (possibility to schedule, distribute, share reports, compatibility with Excel 365).
The report creation and modification is a little difficult for the mere user with little to no technical knowledge.
The ability to schedule and distribute reports with attachments of various formats is probably the feature I appreciate the most. The ability to view the underlying SQL is also very handy.
We didn't use the Dashboard function so far (out of scope). One problem we had is that the datawarehouse model needs to have been setup correctly (especially the joints) to avoid later issues.
Interestingly the growth in use of the product has been somewhat self propagating. As an example I had people in Fleet request a report from Finance which they loved and asked how they got it.
Still no connector to allow you to access data in Essbase which they have said has been on their list for development.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
