Get Exactly What You Want with Customized Yurbi Apps

Yurbi Apps are the essential ingredient to your organization connecting to any data source and displaying your data in an easy and understandable manner. How do they work? Yurbi Apps pull information from data sources and then translates this data into usable reports.  Users benefit from a single, repeatable reporting process regardless of the data source.  The result is a reduction in the learning curve and decision-makers getting to the analysis and reports faster.

Building a Yurbi App is a simple 3-step process:

  • Design Your Report Types – Typically, this will be a business term, that users will immediately understand when they see it
  • Model the Database Tables – Associate the database tables related to this business term and go through the Yurbi Join Wizard to link the tables together
  • Create The Reporting Tree – Build the checklist of fields that you want users to have access to from those tables for the report type


Overall, Yurbi Apps are simple to build and designed for the non-technical business user.  Yurbi Apps can connect just about any data source to your dashboards allowing you to view your data quickly and easily to make data-informed business decisions.  Examples of Yurbi Apps include the following data sources:

  • Microsoft® SQL or Oracle® Databases
  • Cloud Applications
  • API Interfaces
  • Flat Files (including MS Excel)
  • Customer Support Systems
  • Financial Systems
  • Data Warehouses
  • HR system information
  • Sales databases
  • Any Open Database Connectivity (ODBC)-based database platform

Leverage Our Yurbi App Building Service

For organizations that prefer to leverage our App Building service, our Yurbi developers can build your Apps so your organization can hit the ground running.  If you have a very complex or difficult to access database or databases that have special requirements, our App Building service is ideal.

Service packages tailored to your organization’s needs

We know that every organization has different needs and we can build apps to suit your budget.  From linking basic files to a database to complex workflows, our Yurbi team can help you choose the right App Builder from the following packages:

Basic-30 hours:  The basic package is ideal for single point-to-point connections of data. The hours are optimized for connecting easy to access databases to your dashboards and quickly reporting the data in real time. The Basic package is geared toward building apps for simple relational databases.

Intermediate–60 Hours:  The Intermediate package is the better choice for medium complexity data connections. Reporting on data that includes multiple table joins, formula fields and complex databases would be best utilized through the Intermediate package.

Advanced-120 Hours:  For apps requiring access to highly complex or very large database schema the Advanced package is the right choice. The Advanced package can be used for linking reports, configuring App Shield policies for enhanced security, and some fully custom development work.
