Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Our clients have improved a lot in terms of coordination and communication. This has improved their internal performance."
"Our data is now more structured. Between our data warehouse and BOARD, which are both brand new, we now have a more structured data view with more accurate, timely data."
"The ability to do write back and visualization, with minimal IT development orientation."
"It has a good set of visual elements that you can use and can explain quite well."
"The support from the BOARD team and their consultants is great. Whenever I use technical support, they are good."
"The ease of being able to get the data into BOARD is what makes it nice for people with a semi-IT background."
"BOARD technical support is knowledgeable and helpful."
"A lot of flexibility from the data modeling standpoint. It can add specific line items into our budget, for example, or if we want to make changes to the data model itself, we have that flexibility."
"From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic."
"We used it pretty heavily in gathering data, which goes to our VPs. They are able to base their next revenue planning based on this metric. So, it has been invaluable."
"The solution is an affordable one."
"The most valuable feature is the map visuals that help us connect to the geo-specialized data which is more advanced than other solutions."
"I appreciate Spotfire's range of visualization options, advanced analytics features, and seamless integration with other TIBCO products."
"Spotfire is excellent for scientific applications, especially because of its integration with RNG."
"We particularly like the data angling feature of this solution. This gives us the ability to work on data transformations, join files, and carry out other data preparation tasks all in a single tool."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"My analysts have used the technical support. Sometimes they have felt like they did not receive the answer that they needed, or you have to go and upgrade in order to address a problem. "
"The product can be improved by making it possible to know where cubes are used."
"One thing that I personally would like to see is additional visualization tools for visuals."
"If we could upload other data, e.g., pivot tables which can be done in BOARD already, that we have pre-existing and have that data distribute to more complex spreadsheets, I would like that going forward."
"I'd like to see a more passive report user for enterprise report writers that aren't particularly technical."
"We can't delete entities and cubes in Boards because it interrupts our whole data model."
"It would be nice to see truly transferable processes from model to model, as well as a method of building repetitive processes."
"We are looking at ways to improve how we deal with security in BOARD and other similar things. "
"I would like more easy-to-implement analytical algorithms. At the moment they include things like forecasts and regressions. They need to add a lot more of these types of things to the product because not everyone is a data scientist."
"One aspect where Spotfire could improve is its global recognition, especially in terms of support."
"The way TIBCO Spotfire is designed, in my opinion, is the reason why it lags a bit, especially compared to other BI tools like Qlik."
"The number of charts available out of the box in Spotfire can be enhanced."
"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 design of the UI could be improved."
"Personalising Spotfire, as a whole, is painful and is something that could be made easier."
"The initial setup of TIBCO Spotfire is in the middle range of difficulty. The initial setup of Power BI is easier."
