Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration vs TIBCO Spotfire comparison

"Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration is very easy to use."

"Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration is quite a stable solution."

"The product is robust."

"The most valuable feature is that API Gateway is extremely flexible for any feature, such as connecting to Active Directory to pull the users and their authentication information. There are three ways to connect to Active Directory, and the reason for this is that the computing environments of our customers are very different. Every feature in API Gateway has got multiple methodologies for accomplishing those tasks, which is important because customers are constantly changing their security models, IT models, networks, etc. API Gateway is very flexible. It is not a one size fits all sort of situation where it is very rigid, and you can only use these pull-down menus, and that's all it ever does. It is much more open than that. It can give you fabulous reports on your users, usage, security issues, and the data sets that are going through there. You'll suddenly have visibility on the movement of data within or between your organization and other organizations. The other thing is that you're connecting API to API, which is machine to machine. The things that were done manually in an Excel spreadsheet before exchanging data through email are now done machine to machine and server to server. It speeds up the velocity of your business."

"One of the main features is integrated statistical analysis."

"The solution is an affordable one."

"Live Query data on demand, R and Python integration, and the ability to write HTML and JavaScript text areas are all valuable features."

"From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic."

"The most valuable features of TIBCO Spotfire are visualization. It's very nice, clear, and, flexible. You can analyze many data types and the user interface is very good."

"The flexibility, data preparation, and data wrangling abilities of the platform are exceptional."

"The product's initial setup phase was simple."

"The ability to connect to many different data sources is one of the key features. The other would then be the different ways in which that data can be visualized."

"The most important point to improve is the capability to deploy in large enterprises."

"Because it is so flexible, you really need someone who knows Axway Gateway or has been through the training and is certified. Just because you know APIs doesn't mean you're going to walk into that API Gateway and understand what to click on. If you're going to get something done quickly, you need to find an engineer from a company who has some experience with it. It is easy to learn, but if you're doing on-the-job training, it is going to take you longer to get your project accomplished."

"Axway AMPLIFY Application Integration is an expensive solution."

"The product must improve its visibility and scalability."

"The initial setup can be difficult."

"We would like an easier way to get the product to the cloud. Right now, we have the on-premise version, and we would like to find a way to make it easier to migrate it over to the cloud."

"Personalising Spotfire, as a whole, is painful and is something that could be made easier."

"When it comes to data manipulation, there are features which are good, but one of the features which has really been missing in Spotfire is an offline ability for data manipulation."

"The handling and consumption of realtime data could be improved."

"One aspect where Spotfire could improve is its global recognition, especially in terms of support."

"Compared to competitors, the UI is quite dated."

"The initial setup is complicated and needs experience and knowledge."

"API Gateway is priced on the number of transactions you run through it. API Gateway is free, and you can install as many API Gateways as you like or are necessary for your network. For example, if all of the data is inside your network or firewall, you may just need one API Gateway. If you have external customers trying to come into your organization through your firewall, you're going to need one API Gateway outside the firewall and one inside the firewall. If you have a lot of remote offices, you may want to put API Gateway in some of those offices as well. They only charge you for your usage of it. In other words, the number of transactions going through it. That's a good benefit."

"The product is not expensive."

"Users need to pay an annual licensing fee for the solution."

"This product carries a monthly licensing charge, with the amount depending on the features that are to be included. This costs also covers the use of technical support."

"The Tibco sales teams have been very difficult to work with - ignoring requests, misrepresenting level of demand, etc."

"I would describe TIBCO Spotfire as an averagely-priced product."

"The ROI is nearly impossible to calculate."

"In comparison to other solutions such as IBM Cognos, TIBCO Spotfire is more affordable."

"The cost is a few hundred dollars per user per year."

"The price-point for this solution is negotiable depending on usage levels."

"The solution is affordable one."
