Yellowfin and Extol Making BI Easier

Yellowfin today announced a new partnership with Extol, one of Malaysia’s largest ICT security solutions providers, in which Extol will integrate their predictive analytics application into Yellowfin.

As part of their risk management business, Extol have developed a neural network predictive analysis engine, and are now working with Yellowfin to develop a usable front end that is integrated with reporting and can be delivered to their clients; the largest insurance companies and banks in Malaysia.

“We really appreciated the approach that Justin Tan and his R&D team have taken to solving some of the predictive modelling issues, and are looking forward to a great partnership in the future.” Said Glen Rabie, CEO of Yellowfin.

For Yellowfin, this partnership means that they can offer their clients a highly intuitive predictive modelling module, one which has generally been at the rocket science end of the BI spectrum. Now Yellowfin is going to make it available for the average business users.
