Pros
"Technical support has always been very good.""The initial setup process is easy.""In general, it is helpful because it allows administrators to see where the Wi-Fi and network services are being most used.""I like Location Analytics' geofencing features for devices.

"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.""From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic.""Live Query data on demand, R and Python integration, and the ability to write HTML and JavaScript text areas are all valuable features.""It allows users to quickly analyze data from a variety of sources and visualize it with powerful, interactive graphs, and charts.""This solution allows us to integrate data from across all client departments, for effective reporting via a single dashboard.""The ability to create a real-time data mark, using just one piece of software, is the best feature of this product.""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 two features that I have found most valuable are its ability to customize the dashboards when it comes to the evaluation. The second feature is its ability to handle a large amount of data, which is also something very unique about it."

Cons

That's the most complicated part, but the product is worth it.""The pricing is a pain point for us. It's a bit expensive."

"The initial setup is complicated and needs experience and knowledge.""When you do the data loading, it is slow.""Compared to competitors, the UI is quite dated.""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.""Print capability and trigger-based events.""The data compression has room for improvement.""The design of the UI could be improved.""We encountered difficulties connecting the special data sets, as the post data set did not contain any shared columns, making it difficult to establish a connection between the data sets."
