A low-performing integration tool
We use it as an in-house back-type integration tool. It allows us to have different integrations between different systems It does not perform well. It needs more reusable components that are unlimited in time. Furthermore, it relies on the files systems and does not create components, so it is…

Interactive dashboards have transformed reporting and now support real-time data-driven decisions
One area that could improve in TIBCO Spotfire is performance with very large data sets. I use the advanced scripting feature less often, but the visualization and dashboard features are very useful in my daily work with TIBCO Spotfire. TIBCO Spotfire can be improved in handling very large data, faster dashboard loading, simpler advanced scripting, and better customization options for visualizations. Integration with some external tools in TIBCO Spotfire can be smoother, and the user interface for advanced features could be more beginner-friendly. A more intuitive navigation system, a cleaner interface, and an easier drag-and-drop option for report building would also make it more useful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The stability of the solution is OK."
"Data visualization: Spotfire is an incredible, powerful tool capable of creating data analysis "templates" or "dashboards", which can be shared globally and can be used to visualize data to make business decisions."
"TIBCO Spotfire is a strong and reliable analytic platform that delivers good value for organizations that need advanced reporting, dashboards, and data-driven decision-making."
"R and automation services."
"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."
"It makes it possible to give us factual insights, helps us to take right decisions transforming our business."
"TIBCO Spotfire integrates with R and Python, offering a differentiator from the competition."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"It's quite stable and reliable."
 

Cons

"It does not perform well. It needs more reusable components that are unlimited in time."
"It is not performing well."
"Technical support is average; however, the user conferences that are held regionally and nationally provide a lot of value."
"There were problems with the initial setup. There is not a lot of documentation for implementation."
"Print capability and trigger-based events."
"However, not all the runtime components are multiplatform. To be exact, the component whose purpose is to render the data in a web browser can be installed only on Microsoft machines."
"I have run into issues with large datasets (>2M records), and attempting to build relationships between tables for use in a single visualization."
"I would like to see a few more charts and properties, easy integration with HTML design, d3 charts, and custom charts."
"TIBCO Spotfire and ClickView need improvement in scheduling, which is critical yet lacking in quality."
"Administration functionality can be improved more by moving the rest of the command-line effort to a web-based UI."
