Very Flexible Analytics Tool

  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The combined abilities of Spotfire's own in-memory engine, R data functions, iron pyton and javascript scripts allow for creating a very unique user experience that provides more than just visualizations.
What do you dislike about the product?
The server-side upgrade process is better than it used to be, but still has room for improvement in making it simpler to upgrade from one version of Spotfire to the next.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using Spotfire in primarily two ways: 1) To provide in-depth visual analysis to both internal and external clients based on our data science team's various projects. 2) Creating interactive tools for our in-house users that allow for two-way data flow. Users get analysis data and interact with it, ultimately submitting results back to our datalake...all in near real time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Investing more time in training not just in using and administering Spotfire, but also R, ironpython, and javascript will greatly enhance your ability to maximize the functionality and user experience.

Extensive user review for Energy professional

  • October 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Spotfire handles disparate data sources very well. It is also very easy to turn around a quick analysis.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the collaborative features in spotfire are lacking, namely team bookmarking capabilities. My team and I use bookmarks extensively, however, there are only two types of bookmarking features (public & private). I can create a public bookmark for collaboration, however, my team members must create an additional unique bookmark in order to expand upon work/analysis. (This becomes problematic after several team iterations, as several bookmarks have to be created in order to expand a team analysis). Spotfire needs an additional bookmark type ("team" or "global", this additional bookmark type would allow public publishing, but also allow group editing/saving/etc for non administrative roles.)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Horizontal well spacing, well production characterization, and cost benefit analysis. Spotfire's ability to improve workflows, work efficiency, and data analysis efficiency is unmatched in my opinion. The more I use the software, the more I find additional ways to improve business processes and business decisions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Spotfire visualizations are easy to create with this software. Lean in; the more you use the program, the more value you will realize from using it.


    Transportation/Trucking/Railroad

A fully-contained, powerful analytics solution

  • October 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Spotfire gives businesses the capability to quickly deploy enterprise-scale analytics from numerous data sources and empower users to drill down all the way to the row-level data if needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no way to mirror a visualization between pages. If I have an analysis of numerous pages, and I want one visualization to appear on every page, I must duplicate the visualization over and over. If I need to make a change, there is not a master version, I must make the change to each individual page. Same goes for duplicating visualizations across analyses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have used Spotfire to improve our service variability and consistency. Using spotfire, we were able to plot millions of shipments on a scatter plot and identify how late or early each shipment was. From here, we were able to make actual changes and improvements to our operations to double our on-time percentage and cut standard deviation in half!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Not only is Spotfire a best-in-class product now, but the features they have in the pipeline will improve the usefulness and take this product to the next level.

Best visual tool and aggregator

  • October 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the bright visuals and the immense aggregation capabilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
The more recent versions have hidden some of the more useful features behind panels, and made them harder to get to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving many ad hoc analysis problems with Spotfire as well as some everyday tasks. I use it on a regular basis for visualizing drill schedules, and for pivoting data into cross tables.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend using Spotfire for many reasons. The visualization capabilities give an almost instant view into data quality. The ability to quickly work with massive amounts of data are impressive. And the aggregation of those massive numbers of records is so intuitive!
