Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, November 21, 2014 -- Under the agreement, GCS Agile will be able to offer Yellowfin’s BI solution, and its associated suite of professional services, to its current and future clients throughout Australia.

The decision to partner with Yellowfin arose from GCS Agile’s desire to find an innovative solution to support the analytical requirements of its Machine Learning (BigML) and Customer Engagement Optimization product offerings.

“We partnered with Yellowfin because it’s a locally developed, easy to deploy BI solution that provides rich data visualization, Collaborative BI and Mobile BI functionality,” said GCS Agile Southern Region Director, Arnie Tuchtan. “No other browser-based BI platform offered the same level of functionality and ease of use in a single easy to deploy product.”

GCS Agile CEO, Gerry Carcour, said he was confident the partnership would be mutually beneficial because Yellowfin and GCS Agile shared similar views on the reporting and analytics market.

“Yellowfin is an innovative organization, providing a solution that’s aligned with the GCS Agile data-driven vision,” said Carcour. “I know we can do great things together.”

Yellowfin CEO, Glen Rabie, said that GCS Agile’s strong BI skillsets and industry knowledge would ensure the partnership delivered value to the Australian market.

“GCS Agile’s understanding of the modern data challenges facing Australian organizations is impressive,” said Rabie. “We view GCS Agile as a long-term strategic partner that will assist Yellowfin to expand its presence in the Australian marketplace.”
