Switch from Yellowfin to Luzmo
Yellowfin is a BI platform that mixes dashboards with data storytelling. It offers decent embedding and white-labeling, but it’s still built with internal reporting in mind. The setup can feel heavy, multi-tenancy requires extra configuration, and customization only goes so far.
Luzmo strips away the complexity and focuses squarely on embedded analytics. You get full CSS control, built-in tenant management, and an SDK designed for product teams. Instead of forcing customers into a BI portal, you deliver dashboards that feel truly native inside your product.
Don’t embed another analytics platform. Embed analytics that look like part of your own product from day one.
