Find out in this report how the two Reporting solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
The biggest return on investment is the time saving for the customer.
I have seen a return on investment with TIBCO Spotfire; it has significantly reduced our manual report creation time and increased data-driven decision-making efficiency, so our ROI is good in that aspect.

I am totally satisfied with technical support from Qlik.
Having a local partner was crucial for us while they were there.
I would rate the customer support for TIBCO Spotfire nine out of ten.
TIBCO's support, especially for integration products, is swift.
If you want better performance with a larger volume of data, you can simply add an additional server.
There are no significant stability issues as long as the product's capabilities are understood and not overly pushed.
Overall, TIBCO Spotfire is a good product and has been a stable platform.
AI features are already available in Qlik Sense, so you would need to migrate to that platform.
In QlikView, I believe the improvement that should be made is to bring the costs down, as you'll have to be competitive with Power BI, aiming for at least a 30% reduction to stop the hemorrhaging to Power BI.
TIBCO Spotfire and ClickView need improvement in scheduling, which is critical yet lacking in quality.
It could be very useful if the coding part of using the platform could be more user-friendly in terms of visual capability.
The usage and flexibility need to be better compared to other analytical tools.
The license cost per user or per year for QlikView is about 500 Euros annually.
I would rate the pricing for QlikView as not cheap, but it is reasonable.
TIBCO Spotfire's pricing is high, particularly in traditional markets like Turkey, impacting market penetration.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for TIBCO Spotfire appears fair.
Building metrics using simple language, similar to what you have in Excel, is what I have found most valuable in QlikView.
The best features in QlikView are rapid development, the fact that I can do what I want in QlikView, and full control along with ease of use.
TIBCO Spotfire integrates with R and Python, offering a differentiator from the competition.
The best features TIBCO Spotfire offers, in my opinion, are its built-in advanced analytics and automation services, which make it really powerful compared to typical reporting tools such as Power BI or Tableau.
The flexibility of TIBCO Spotfire comes from how it lets you customize dashboards, connect different data sources, and the connectivity to heterogeneous data sources with ease of use makes it feel flexible to me.
