Our customers' operations are made easier by having up-to-date messaging
We mainly use the PDF rendering facility. The combination of the MS Word template and the passing of a JSON data object into a single simple REST API call that returns a PDF document is exactly what we required. The ability to embed, and dynamically repeat, templates within each other is a very simple yet extremely powerful tool. The HTML rendering, in combination with our own AWS SES service, allows a very simple method of producing bespoke emails. The storage of templates within the product in a folder structure makes the rendering call simple and also allows for multiple environments to be catered for.

The integration of TIBCO Jaspersoft with some data sources has limitations that I encountered, and it was not very straightforward. This was one of the concerns with TIBCO Jaspersoft. The limitations include compatibility with some drivers where we do not have adequate JDBC drivers, and because of that, I am not able to make the connection pool. I do see a negative side in terms of support. I am a little disappointed because when we report any defect, it takes time to get a resolution. There are also limitations on some connectors where we do not have connectivity established. These are the few issues I faced while using TIBCO Jaspersoft.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Globally, the ability to create document templates in several formats by using a rich syntax is simple and clear to understand."
"To generate these same tabular formatted reports with a code-only solution would have taken a lot longer to implement than the Docmosis template-based approach. Docmosis templates were easier to design as we were able to use Microsoft Word to create them. The templates made it easy to make any changes to reports and provided flexibility in our design approach."
"A new report’s template creation is very often manipulation of a user’s layout of a report. A report can be ready in a day or less, once stored procedures are created as per sections in the report."
"There is flexibility in laying out tables that is akin to UI front-end design."
"Since our initial development, this feature has required very little maintenance. And when changes are requested, it is rather easy to change a Word document template and new staff can be quickly trained to modify a report."
"The ability to embed, and dynamically repeat, templates within each other is a very simple yet extremely powerful tool."
"We can set any property dynamically."
"It's easy to use and maintain."
"The solution is standalone with the flexibility to use visualize.js to embed within the application."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...The deployment process of TIBCO Jaspersoft is easy."
"The designer is the most valuable feature."
"You can do quite a lot with it in terms of automated reports and dashboards."
"The feature that I like most is the drag and drop capability."
"With the online view, it's easier to create Ad Hoc reports. It has inbuilt reports so we can easily get data from the system and customize the fields."
 

Cons

"The challenge in usage when we developed the reports four years ago was the limited logic that can be applied to manipulate and display data. That functionality was largely transferred over to the database layer in creating the data output that was to be displayed."
"Version control and restricted access to some users for template editing could be a useful addition."
"We are facing new challenges such as internationalization. The next big challenge will be to offer even more date formats and numbers that cover the majority of countries. It will be to also think about features, such as number to text conversion, or the reverse which is currently only available in English but is in great demand by our international customers."
"It would be great to have improved diagnostic and debugging tools. When report templates are complex, sometimes any minor modification needs to be thoroughly tested to ensure that it does not disrupt a previously designed template."
"Currently, JSON format is the main format we use, however, in TIBCO Jaspersoft, XML format is the default and JSON did not work because TIBCO did not fix it."
"There might be some compatibility issues with the dashboard if we're using the latest version and some clients are using the older version. Some features might not be supported."
"A better focus should be put on self-service reporting."
"TIBCO Jaspersoft would benefit from enabling you to run multiple reports in one file and incorporating more options related to multiple reports."
"Customization is an area with certain shortcomings in the solution that needs improvement."
"The reporting templates have room for improvement."
"Jaspersoft should focus on user interaction features, and one should not expect it to suit every niche."
"I would like to see some analysis done prior to data extraction. The data extraction itself could also be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price bands are based on pages so ensure you have a good understanding of this if documents are of variable length."
"Cloud and REST API models keep the setup costs low."
"Since I checked last time, only one annual license costs about $25,000."
"I give the cost of the solution a five out of ten."
"The pricing is cost effective because it is based on servers rather than users."
"I find the price to be reliable and not overly costly."
"I would rate the pricing as four out of five because it's expensive."
"The solution is a little bit expensive."

Jaspersoft vs. Pentaho – Which one to use & is there any need to purchase the commercial edition
Any company (be it technology, manfucaturing, human resource, ecommerce, SME etc) always has the need for Business Intelligence to some or the other extent. If cost is one of the consideration factor, then the 2 BI tools which are at the forefront are Pentaho and Jaspersoft. But, often the same…
