Case Study: 66Controls achieves reduced IT risk and self-service analytics with Hitachi Vantara's Pentaho

66Controls Takes Control Of Their Data

66Controls, a Dutch Application Management firm, needed to add more services and self‑service analytics to its KPI Performance Management platform to help customers reduce compliance and audit risk worth millions. After their previous analytics provider was acquired, 66Controls selected Hitachi Vantara’s Pentaho solution—specifically Pentaho Business Analytics and Pentaho Data Integration—to deliver enterprise‑grade analytics while preserving a competitive pricing model via an OEM partnership.

Hitachi Vantara embedded Pentaho Business Analytics and Pentaho Data Integration into 66Controls’ SaaS suite, building connectors to systems like TOPdesk, Salesforce, SAP and Oracle to extract, transform and blend data. The result was a quick implementation by a small IT team, removal of time‑consuming manual data processing, empowered non‑technical users for self‑service monitoring, stronger governance and compliance, and reduced IT risk (hedging millions in potential audit exposure); the flexible Hitachi Vantara OEM licensing also enabled faster market expansion and improved customer satisfaction.
