Meteorite Consulting to host UK Open Source BI User Group

See the latest solutions for delivering Enterprise Wide Business Intelligence.
Reading, Berkshire, United Kingdom (prbd.net) 06/09/2011
On 8 September 2011, Meteorite Consulting are hosting the inaugural UK Open Source BI User Group Event. The UK OSBI User Group aims to provide information to help organisations select and implement innovative commercial and open source business intelligence, data warehousing and data integration solutions.

These solutions allow organisations to analyse the vast quantities of data they capture every day and turn it into usable information to inform decision making, improve performance and gain competitive advantage.

The event is free to attend and is being held in London from 6pm on Thursday 8 September. It will provide an opportunity to see the latest offerings from emerging technologies that provide a cost effective and technically innovative alternative to the traditional BI, DW and ETL vendors.

The theme of our first event is "BI Servers" and there will be presentations from a number of leading vendors including Jaspersoft, Yellowfin and SpagoBI.

About Yellowfin
At Yellowfin we are passionate about making Business Intelligence easy. In fact Yellowfin was founded to tackle the problems its founders had experienced with more traditional players in this market. What we saw was a significant market gap: the tools were highly complex, expensive and designed for technical resources - not business people - regardless of the marketing hype! Why only roll out BI tools to a chosen few, if all business people need access to their data.
The majority of feedback we receive is on the usability of our interface. Our design philosophy is to design and build highly intuitive software. This philosophy has driven us to develop products that are easy to install and even easier to use. Customers are able to use our Yellowfin within days and weeks rather than traditional software installations which can take months or years. www.yellowfinbi.com
