Good BI/Data VIsualization Software
What do you like best about the product?
Spotfire allows for data-visualization of large databases -- whether they be in-house or via a third party (AWS, etc). With the wide variety of options, we are able to customize dashboards and meet clients needs. The cloud services allows remote work from anyplace -- not requiring an application installed on the machine.
What do you dislike about the product?
Dashboard/controls can be daunting to a first time user. It definitely requires a lot of training for development or advanced analytics -- just from navigation to getting a functional template. Customer support can be difficult to deal with -- they are often outsourced and the language barrier/clarity is frustrating when trouble-shooting why something is not working correctly or how to improve your interface.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Able to visualize millions upon millions of rows of data within a single dashboard -- plus constantly adding weekly data every month. Business managers are now able to pull a lot of data themselves versus coming to marketing (Saving time).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Have dedicated and trained developers or admins available in-house to assist employees. Expect a learning curve when trying to implement the transition.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My business uses TIBCO Spotfire to gather data from our systems, measure the health of our organization against predefined metrics, and making decisions to take action where there are areas for us to improve. Before using Spotfire, we had individuals across several functional areas run metrics manually using Excel on a monthly basis. These individuals often did this in addition to their expected job responsibilities. We now have the ability with Spotfire to view our data consistently -- spending less time analyzing the data and spending more time taking a look and what the data is telling us.
A useful tool for the less technically inclined
What do you like best about the product?
TIBCO Spotfire does a great job helping its users build advanced visualizations with little to no programming involved. It offers a large variety of visualizations and does a good job of letting its users tweak the visualizations to their specific needs. It also offers powerful data transformation tools that improve the usefulness of a user's data without having to modify the source data.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's very strength can sometimes be a weakness. Although it is easy to develop visualizations with this platform, it is often difficult to customize when needed. This is symptomatic of all such dashboarding applications, though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used TIBCO Spotfire to develop dashboards for audit-related projects. We also used the product to perform exploratory data analyses on a variety of internal investigations in connection with malicious insider activities.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Seek out independent tutorials on the product. The Spotfire forum can be useful but it can be difficult to find what you are looking for.
Excellent and powerful data visualization tool.

What do you dislike about the product?
Spotfire is not so good for more complex statistical analysis.

What do you dislike about the product?
Not an application builder, insanely hard to create a layout that is appealing or to create user controls - possible with some python but far too hard to create say a button to change the data plotted on an axis etc - not designed to create end user applications - the web player for example takes precisely whats on your desktop and places it in a web page - no ability to use additional Realestate etc
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating dashboards for people to get uptodate information on the oil market, saving people time as they do not need to create and maintain their own visuals
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Determine if you require an application builder (building a product others will consume, say through a web browser) or a desktop tool to explore data. If the former stay away unless you are a python guru, even then be cautious. If the latter go for it if you can't afford Tablou
Not for large data sets
What do you like best about the product?
Nice visuals
Some easy config available
Allow users to quickly see data

Spotfire - Great tool for data visualization and data analysis
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.
