2018 was a brilliant year dominated by the release of automated analytics and governed data storytelling products. This is how the year went for Yellowfin…
Data infrastructure, AI and Big Data have dominated the discussion but this year, there was a shift in the kinds of conversations we were having - the focus was increasingly on the end user experience.
We know that people learn in different ways - whether it’s visually or through language. People also like to create a narrative and share a story. The best way to do both of these things is in long-form documents, not dashboards. That’s why you’ll see a big focus on long-form stories in Yellowfin release 8.
As automation does more mechanical tasks, the role of the analytics department will change quickly. In the future, analysts will spend more time interpreting results and telling stories.
We’re in the early stages of a dramatic transition for the analytics industry. More and more of the jobs that were previously done by analysts are being automated. Technology is changing the way organizations receive information. People are being alerted to both good and bad news as it happens and this has profound behavioral consequences for organizations.
The BI industry has become synonymous with the dashboard, but dashboards aren’t great at most use cases, like helping users to find new insights or investigate data. It’s time for the industry to find new ways to deliver information to users.
Increase user adoption for your analytics tools — create stories that give your data a voice while generating common, consistent understanding across your organization.
There are three phases in the way the BI industry has approached automated analytics: 1) helping the user build a better dashboard, 2) assisted insights, 3) outlier and trend detection
Our dashboards are easy to create, highly-customizable, and personalized. Awesome visualizations and interactivity engage users and increases usage and adoption. Build the data-driven culture your business needs.
Unlike your dashboards, Yellowfin discovers and sends automatic alerts about critical changes in the business, as they occur. Get early warning signs for Spikes and Drops, Step Changes, Changes in Trend Direction and Volatility, Period Comparisons, New and Lost Attributes.
