The variety of data and the depth stood out for me. Furthermore, it was easy to use the data or the ready-to-use charts.

Fantastic tool for quick analysis

  • October 21, 2016

What do you like best about the product?
The free edition for students has been a fantastic boon, I'll definitely be carrying this through my university life and *hopefully* a future employer.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing is quite high all things considered - there are a wealth of free tools out there that while they require a little more effort on your behalf have a much better cost benefit proposition
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Analytics on user actions garnered from an online application - has been useful in finding areas wherein users drop off out of the application
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definitely give this product a look in, while it might be higher priced than many of the free alternatives the learning curve is much smaller.

Spotfire - Great tool for data visualization and data analysis

  • September 07, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy using this tool. I can easily put in graphics all the information I gather with Excel. This tool is very easy to setup and use. I consider that Spotfire is one of the best analytics software. My organization had the Spotfire platform service.

Other item that is very valuable is the processing time it takes to generate the report considering the amount of data. Maybe if I run a macro in excel with the multiple files the PC could collapse or crash, but with Spotfire the server makes it really fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support does not support and sometimes they don't have replies to our questions.

and Drill down in the same chart is not available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Implemented for Supply chain management project. It helps customer to remove the manual work of maintaining excel sheet and had automated the process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great visualization tool. Should be tried by everyone.

Useful tool

  • September 05, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is an excelent tool. I used is as a complement of excel. It has very nice and complete chart options and alouds the user to run complex pivot tables of long and heavy data tables. I work a lot with pivots and excel crashes if you use pivots of more than 70 columns and 250 mb.
The web option es also great. You can send the attendees of a meeging a link with the report and they access to a "read-only " version of the report. It is not necesarry to attach a file to an email, with the link itself is enough.
What do you dislike about the product?
it is very difficult to write and understand the spotfire coding. If you want to add calculated columns you have to set new coding of dependencies between existing columns and the available codes are not the same as excel. It takes some time to upload heavy data bases (40 min for 250 mb).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
From my opinion, I have solved the issue of running pivot tables of heavy (more than 200 mg) data bases. It is also important to mention that is not necesary to attach the report files, you can just add the web link and with a user and password they can see (read only) a web version of the same report.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think it is very important to pay for the "TIBCO" servers to work using an stablished library. Excel has the same functionalities but Spotfire is better in graphical options and it does not crash with pivots of heavy and long data bases

Very useful

What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy using this tool. I can easily put in graphics all the information I gather with Excel. This tool is very easy to setup and use. I consider that Spotfire is one of the best analytics software. My organization had the Spotfire platform service. There is also other option that is Spotfire Cloud. Don't know how that one works, but looks like another good option.
Other item that is very valuable is the processing time it takes to generate the report considering the amount of data. Maybe if I run a macro in excel with the multiple files the PC could collapse or crash, but with Spotfire the server makes it really fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like that this tool has to use local users to connect to the server to check the reports. I would prefer other authentication method. That is the only item I can consider as "room for improvement".
Other topic that could be considered for improvement is the way it codes the queries that it runs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Risk Management Reporting. I can consolidate information from multiple sources very fast. I use it to show Risk Management KPIs and indicators and to monitor weekly the health of the Organization's risks. I usually lead a weekly presentation where we share the spotfire report and after any amber or red numbers are shown, I just double click over the number and it takes me to the data in other sheet.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Please consider that the tool uses local users.
