Streamlit vs. Tungsten Power PDF

- Don't want to pay Tableau $1,000 / seat? Use Streamlit - Want fully custom views and navigation? Use Streamlit - Want access to Machine Learning and not just your dev team? Use Streamlit - Want to keep things internal and secure? Use Streamlit - Want your Data Science team to be able to crank out projects quickly? Use Streamlit - Sick of Jupyter Notebooks and Business Leaders not understanding them? Use Streamlit Our D.S. strategy has moved completely to delivering pages in Streamlit. I can hand an executive a Jupyter notebook and it'll get lost in translation. I can give them sign-in access to a page and they can answer all of their own "What-If?" questions! We've used Streamlit to productize our Data Science and Machine Learning capabilities.

GREAT for combining documents into a single PDF. Great for working with a PDF. Not so great converting PDF to Word format. Would like to see more effort put into that development. Would like to see more effective testing of updates prior to pushing them out as well. Otherwise it is awesome.

• Incredibly Easy
• Customizable
• Quick and powerful

• Typewriter functionality is great, although can take some time to load. This allows you to fill in text wherever applicable without turning the rest of the pdf into editable text.
• Fast load times
• Has autogenerated text feature so anything in the pdf can become editable

Incentivized

• Recent Security issues (they quickly released an update to combat this though...)
• Requires a bit of HTML knowledge to really customize. If you're going quick, you don't need HTML though. Streamlit commands will pump your page out fast.

• I find that quickly editing text within a document or adding a line of text is clunky and can snowball into things popping out of place. I prefer to export text, and then work on it elsewhere.
• Sometimes it seems that text recognition is trying too hard and throws me paper punches as "O"s and wrinkles as shapes, so I have to get rid of those artifacts.
• The "Update Available" popup which is usually not an actual update announcement but rather an offer to sell me something is annoying.

Tungsten Power PDF is easy to use, the staff all like it, and there are no issues with it on any level. It is a more cost-effective solution to our PDF needs than other products currently available on the market. This product works as intended and it fits our business needs perfectly.

It is fast and easy to get the hang of. It really didn't take a lot of effort to learn how to use this program and I appreciated that it was pretty "plug and play" and there wasn't a long learning curve.

Other that a PDF partially disappearing if left up for a long period of time - no issues. (If you close it and reopen it, it is all there. We have some PDFs that are 400-600 pages long.)

Pages nearly always load at the expected rapid speed. Some documents that print quickly from Adobe Reader print much more slowly from Power PDF. I have never generated a report - that's a feature I didn't know existed until now and do not know what it's for

I have used it for 15 years and have only needed support once: a simple update that allowed me to use the software as intended. The support team was attentive and responsive, and I was on my way very quickly.

I got an overview of the product from my predecessor who was about to retire from the job I now hold. He did not go into very many of the features and probably only knew about the ones he used most frequently.

We watched the training videos and tested out the features and functionality side by side. Some features are not used on a regular basis is it is convenient to go back and review training on that particular functionality when needed.

Incentivized

Easy and quick, with no problems or support needed. Worked as intended right out of the box. E-signing was the only area that implementation was dificult and required support

I started using Streamlit when it first came out and thought it was really useful and powerful. A few years later and they've really hit their stride! The features / widgets / materials they provide have been well researched, well designed, and well implemented. I will take Streamlit to any future companies I go to as well as be a strong promoter wherever I'm currently at. It's free. It's easy to use. It is really powerful. Sure? You could go pay for a larger system but your Data Science team should be able to handle Streamlit easily. I'd argue a non-technical person spending a few weeks in python could pick up Streamlit really quickly.

There is nothing to compare it to. Tungsten Power PDF is by far an easier and more efficient option. The one advantage of CutePDF is the functionality of overlay and underlay with headers and footers. The other functions in Tungsten Power PDF are much easier to use. Pricing is also an attractive option.

Incentivized

Not really familiar since I'm the only person who uses it. But in the past it has been my understanding that Power PDF was offered only on a single-license basis, so it's been expensive for me to use it at home and at work because I had to pay for it on my own. In my current position management supports it so I at least only have to pay for it once.

• I've scaled my team 2x since using Streamlit. We show off actual results that users can play with
• We're building a customer facing page that we're going to monetize.
• Incredible amounts of visibility into my team and what we're accomplishing.

• Although it was expensive to get the program (just under $200), I found that it was nice that there was only that one time charge. If there were updating or annual fees, I think that would be a deal breaker. Thankfully there isn't, though!
