MELBOURNE, Australia, Feb. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

--For the seventh consecutive year, Yellowfin is acknowledged for Ability to 
Execute and Completeness of Vision

Yellowfin, the only analytics vendor that combines industry-leading 
action-based dashboards, automated discovery and data storytelling, today 
announced it has been recognized as a Visionary in Gartner, Inc.'s 2020 Magic 
Quadrant for Analytics and Business Intelligence Platforms[1].

According to Gartner, "Modern analytics and business intelligence (ABI) 
platforms are characterized by easy-to-use functionality that supports a full 
analytic workflow -- from data preparation to visual exploration and insight 
generation -- with an emphasis on self-service and augmentation."[2]

"Over 8 years of business with Yellowfin, we have provided Yellowfin to many 
customers as Yellowfin continues to deliver industry-leading innovations, such 
as automated analysis, while supporting a wide range of security and governance 
functions required by our large enterprise customers," said Kazuhiko Kushima, 
CEO of NTT Technocross. "In addition to Yellowfin's commitment to customer 
success and supporting our joint projects, their understanding of our business 
and our emphasis on value ensures a trusted and successful partnership."

"We are thrilled that Yellowfin has been recognized as a Visionary by Gartner 
in their 2020 Magic Quadrant for Analytics and Business Intelligence 
Platforms," said Glen Rabie, CEO of Yellowfin. "We believe that our ongoing 
commitment to product innovation to deliver an exceptional analytical 
experience for our customers and our partners has been recognized. Not only do 
we have the broadest analytic platform capabilities in the market but our 
approach to solving the data challenges our customers have is unique. 
Action-based dashboards, data storytelling, and AI-driven alerts help our 
customers to create transformational value from their data, and that's what 
motivates us to keep on innovating. We are tremendously proud to be recognized 
seven consecutive years, and this year we are positioned in the Visionaries 
Quadrant."

In the company's view, this acknowledgement from Gartner follows another 
breakthrough year for Yellowfin around product innovation and customer 
satisfaction. Yellowfin recently launched Yellowfin 9 which introduces an 
incredibly flexible, action-based dashboard builder and progressive data 
storytelling capabilities that advance the capability of the dashboard 
experience. This ground-breaking release also powers enhancements to the 
reimagined Yellowfin Mobile App, and rolls out Yellowfin Present, an advanced 
secure presentation tool. This follows other industry-changing innovations 
including Yellowfin Signals, an automated insights discovery product, and 
Yellowfin Stories, a data storytelling product.
