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."
"Spotfire is an easy-to-use yet powerful tool."
"Spotfire is a wonderful product with vast reporting and analytical capability."
"Technical support is exceptional."
"From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic."
"Compared to Tableau, it is much more powerful in terms of statistics and analytics, but Tableau is more popular, so there is more support for it online."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"It has increased our sales by 10 to 15 percent by having that raw data turned into visuals that we can understand in real time."
"It's quite stable and reliable."
 

Cons

"It is not performing well."
"It does not perform well. It needs more reusable components that are unlimited in time."
"TIBCO Spotfire and ClickView need improvement in scheduling, which is critical yet lacking in quality."
"The design of the UI could be improved."
"We would like to see some development in the visualization aspect of this solution, as they can currently only be configured in the cloud, which limits us to one endpoint. It would be helpful if this could be integrated with other tools."
"The stability is pretty good. However, if you have a decent-sized data set (maybe 100 columns by a few hundred thousand rows) and you create a lot of complex visualizations, sometimes the program will crash on you."
"Room for improvement is in comparison with other tools. I need to see more options that do not require scripting in the tool, and I need more enhancements on the statistical server side."
"Technical support and customer service is 5/10. For technical questions, their support team is responsive and thorough, but their account managers tend to be nonresponsive, and have high turnover."
"I have run into issues with large datasets (>2M records), and attempting to build relationships between tables for use in a single visualization."
"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."
