I use Spotfire Data Science for all of my data analysis and data management needs. Ordinarily, I receive data or get access to my client's database. I import it into Spotfire Data Science and ordinarily repair fundamental problems with the data. Next, I get the data into an analyzable form. This may require writing macros to transform the data. Spotfire Data Science macros are powerful. E.g., in analyzing employee data, I aligned events from eight different datasets relative to hiring date. I perform easier or iterative transformations in a workspace. Many of my problems require prediction so I leverage Spotfire Data Science's different modeling nodes and always end up with a powerful ensemble model. The final model can be exported into whatever code my client prefers. Another common area is need is performing exploratory data analysis. Spotfire Data Science is provides quick results for same day responses to clients.
  • Spotfire Data Science provide reliable results.
  • Spotfire Data Science is 'complete' meaning it provides nearly all the tools I will ever need. If it is not in Spotfire Data Science, then it is probably not worth the effort.
  • Spotfire Data Science saves time on figuring out how to do new things; maintenance; and execution time.
  • Spotfire Data Science can handle large datasets.
  • Spotfire Data Science works more like a quant thinks, so I do not have to trick it to solve the problem in a natural way.
  • I think all statistical software could be better organized by problem rather than tool type. All of the academic books are organized this way so that is how we all think.
Spotfire Data Science is excellent for EDA (Exploratory Data Analysis); handling new data or ongoing data streams; mapping out a complex stream of data processing (using a workspace); and providing fast reliable results.

Spotfire Data Science is used by our organization to build advanced analytical forecasting and other predictive models and for simple to understand visualizations. The software is used by the professional analysts exclusively, no other group of professionals employs the software. Spotfire Data Science does data science in an easy-to-use, visually appealing style.
  • Spotfire Data Science does the point-and-click setup of data science better than anyone.
  • Spotfire Data Science does a good job at making suggestions on modeling framework.
  • Spotfire Data Science is for the advanced user. A beginning analyst may find the capabilities of the software overwhelming.
  • Spotfire Data Science's default analytics models are not always the best.
Spotfire Data Science is world-class at building exploratory analyses and for creative analytical tasks. The software does these two things quite well. On the other hand, Spotfire Data Science is not well suited for creating real-time advanced analytical models that are used in a production environment. Other open-source models work better for such productions.

Data Science is used to figure out the fraud happening in our retail stores. It is used across our department and some other departments too. We usually use another UI application called Eagle to raise alerts for such doubtful transactions, and with Data Science, we can show the alerts and help business people prevent fraud.
  • It can handle huge data sets.
  • It can handle different data sources.
  • It is very quick in calculating things, as compared to almost any other tool.
  • Sometimes it crashes while developing the reports.
  • It should add some more charts like a donut, performance chart, etc.
  • It should be more consumer friendly in connecting to R.
It is well suited if you have large data sets to work on. It helps reports by caching the data so the consumers won't face any delay in opening the report. It also has the ability to use regression models to do predictive analysis, which makes Data Science unique from all other reporting tools.

Spotfire Data Science is being used across the whole organization. We have a little over 500 active clients who use Data Science on a daily basis to solve numerous business problems. Data Science offers a variety of data analysis and statistical methods that can be put into production with just a few clicks; the competitive advantage and practicality it supports really speeds up the whole process.
  • Machine learning
  • Deployment
  • Security and governance
  • It could also be available in the cloud
  • It could have NLP features like Spotfire
  • Greater built-in node customization options
Well suited for:
  • Research
  • Pharmaceutical
  • Banking and Credit & Risk
  • Logistics, Oil & Gas
  • Pulp & Paper
  • Government
  • Manufacturing
  • Health
  • Chemical and Metal industries

Not so much for the auto-parts industry.

Spotfire Data Science is used across the analytics department to develop data visualizations and perform advanced data analytics. The software offers well-structured ways to scrape data from the web, perform machine learning, implement neural networks, create publication-quality graphics, and other simpler analyses. The advantage of Data Science is that it walks analysts through the analysis process rather than needing to write custom code.
  • Data Science does an awesome job with web scraping. It's the easiest tool out there to scrape web data.
  • The point-and-click process for performing neural networks is awesome.
  • The graphics produced by Data Science are as good or better than most other software tools.
  • Because the software takes a point-and-click approach upfront, creating customization requires more effort than software that starts with coding. It's somewhat like Excel. Excel is great for the things it does, but when it requires VBA coding, another software tool is usually a better fit.
  • If you're looking to create custom graphics outside of what is built in to Data Science, good luck, not easy.
  • Data Science has a moderately sized user base, but nowhere near some of the free software tools. This can be challenging when looking for answers to questions.
If you have an analytics department, Data Science is perfect for making analyses quicker. Data Science works well for web querying, automating analyses, sharing advanced analyses with others, and performing lots of other advanced analytical processes. Data Science is not a good fit if the analytics you do is stuff that Excel can do. The software is powerful, with lots of features, and unless you actually plan on using those features, it's not worth paying for.

We use it to manage data collected during field work for environmental and geophysical purposes. We collect a lot of data with many aspects to it that is easy to mismanage. Spotfire Data Science has been incredibly helpful in organization, analysis, and management of collected data, as well as collaborating with coworkers on the data management and presentation for clients.
  • It has a great user interface, easy to navigate and learn on the fly.
  • There are lots of great options for data organization and analysis! Makes it a handy tool for presentations as well.
  • A collaborative ability is highly valued for my company where we often work from home or on site. Being able to share the data with those in the office so multiple people can look at it is a great tool!
  • The visualization aspect of the program can be a little tricky to figure out. It's great to have options but it will take a bit of practice before your figures start looking the way you want (or that's how it was for me).
  • While younger employees like myself may quickly grasp on to the program, the modern interface is difficult for older employees to navigate and get comfortable with. This isn't a problem until you are trying to collaborate with them and things go awry. Perhaps they just need in-depth tutorials to help expedite their learning process.
  • It can be difficult to connect to other databases to import existing data. It's just not an obvious pathway and required some researching before I got the hang of it.
It's well suited for companies who are working long-distance and who have lots of data to organize and present. My company does extensive field work collecting thousands of data points at a time, in many cases, so this is an excellent way to share data collected in the field with those still in the office so that reports can begin before our travels are really finished. It makes the office much more productive! Spotfire Data Science is less suited for companies with older employees or companies that are generally in one office and not doing distance work. It can be a little tricky for older people to grasp the interface and really utilize the program to its full potential so of course spending more time learning the software than using it effectively isn't a great use of time or money.

We regularly use Spotfire Data Science as a means to share and develop code that we make and use for our geologic informational systems programs. We are usually working in VBS script or in Python, so Spotfire Data Science is a great tool for multiple people in the lab to work on Python codes.
  • Collaborative interface that allows multiple people to work on the same project
  • Very user friendly
  • Minimum coding
  • Some basic tutorials on coding, such as introduction to Python would be great
  • It would be nice to have a direct output to ArcGIS files
  • An online database of code would be helpful for open sourced products
It is great for working in groups on large projects. I like how you can further organize users into ranks and groupings, which is much more powerful than most other programs. I also like that the userface is very collaborative, which allows greater success in data management. It is a little clunky for small projects or where only a few people are concerned.

Data Science is being used for the more complicated optimization and control improvements. It allows the use of advanced mathematical methods and I don't have to teach graph theory instead.
  • The processing of data and providing flexibility in changing the processing throughout the process.
  • Providing several advanced computational methods in one package.
  • The integration with Spotfire makes the output easier to communicate.
  • The user interface has a strong learning curve.
  • The neutral network and random tree/forest setup uses terminology associated with some specific branches, not always the most broadly used paramtere term.
If you want to try machine learning methods with flexibility of what-if data prep this works well.

As a student, I utilize Data Science within a learning environment to better my predictive analytic skills.
  • Data Science is very convenient and easy to use. The drag and drop feature makes it a go to software program because of ease of use.
  • Data Science provides a power engine to complete a wide range of computations.
  • Data Science should come with a statistical analysis explanation feature that helps to interpret your results.
  • Data Science should come with a T9-type feature that makes suggestions//recommendations for your next move.
Data Science is a versatile software program that is well suited for many applications. It is easy to use, and can process simple algorithms like linear regression models, to more powerful computations.

Whole lab, for quick and dirty stats and where researchers are too lazy to use R.
  • Newbies handly for stats : click and go learning curve.
  • Quick and fast cut and past data in spreadsheets over laptops windows.
  • Good documentation and tutorials for fast and autonomous learning.
  • Student friendly.
  • License cost : Data Science fights again R/RStudio, which are both opensource with strong support.
+ : Desktop fast & friendly tool
- : No 'last implementation' of new stats tests recently peer reviewed : Not really the first tool to use in our research context.

Our organization uses TIBCO Data Science mainly in our water quality and biological departments. We use this program to help with the massive data sets we produce. This software allows for us to create different ways to present that data.
  • Saves time by calculating things such as median value.
  • Easy to generate diagrams.
  • Easy to import data sets.
  • Saves time because you are able to choose what data you want to use and how you want to display it.
  • I’m still learning everything TIBCO has to offer.
  • My main focus has been mostly on box and our organization uses TIBCO Data Science mainly in our water quality and biological departments. We use this program to help with the massive data sets we produce. This software allows for us to create different ways to present that data.
  • I would like to get into more of the other options available.
If you are dealing with large datasets this product will be helpful. It will save you time and produce quicker results.

Used by the Supply Chain engineering team, mostly with regression and other methods to show relationships between cost and service parameters within Schneider Electric's (SE) supply chain. Frequently used to create rate formulas based on mileage, load type, region to fill in gaps for missing transportation lane data. Also frequently use 3-D graphs and other sophisticated graphics not available in Excel.
  • The interface is screen based and much easier for teams of non-experts to use. Can, however, directly utilize in scripts and/or programming languages, so best of both worlds.
  • Has an extensive range of statistical methods, as well as extensive statistics around those methods.
  • The interface consistent across all modules.
  • Unfortunately, some functionality is hidden per upgrade to other versions. Feel data mining functionality would be useful, but not budget for software. At the current price point, would have expected more (such as Mathematica breadth of functionality for one price).
  • It is light on optimization capability.
  • Slow when considering very large datasets, performing things such as distribution identification
Well suited for regression & related analyses, but lacking on general analytical & simulation functionality. Need to utilize multiple tools.

At my current company, TIBCO Data Science is being used by at least two senior scientists that are located in different departments. Those senior scientists (including myself) use the software to answer analytical questions about issues related to water quality, toxicology, conservation biology, and other areas in support of our public and private sector clients. At my previous company, I managed several junior staff who were also TIBCO Data Science users for the same types of questions, but the cost of the software is a handicap toward getting more junior users at my current company.
  • It can run batch statistics for multiple parameters and stations with one button click, as long as the data are set up correctly. It is a major time saver.
  • Its graphics are usually much more editable than other statistical software, except for those that need programming.
  • It has a very good "textbook" that gives the ins and outs of each analysis. Other software may use a generic test name without giving the specific references for the formulas that it is based on.
  • Although the graphics can be copied into Word or Excel, the copying and pasting process is buggy. Sometimes I basically have to do a Capture Rectangle of a graphic and paste it as a jpg, rather than having an embedded and editable graphic in my Word document.
  • The dialog boxes for some of the common tests, like multiple regression and ANOVA, use quirky terminology that is not intuitive to new users coming out of grad school with a more updated education. I have been using it for over ten years, and the dialogs have not updated in all of that time.
  • The tests like NMDS and PCA are clunky and difficult to use and get the appropriate outputs, especially compared to specialized software like PRIMER.
It is good for exploring data and producing a large number of similar analyses for groups of stations and parameters. It is also helpful for projects that produce similar graphics each year with just minor data updates because the graphs can be rerun with minimal clicking. It does not work as well for specialized analyses and transparency of certain choices in the parameters that are being chosen in the background.

Data Science has allowed us to rapidly deploy advanced analytics to support a growing organization, using a team of non-programmers to meet critical business goals and requirements. We have significantly expanded the usage both in breadth and depth, expanding it to new products as well as utilizing other capabilities that were not in the initial scope. The vendor has been excellent in supporting us over this timeframe, both for technical support issues as well as enhancing functionality.
  • Great tool with unique features such as Weight of Evidence (WoE)
  • Analysis of stats
  • Performance features
  • Deeper learning algorithms will be preferable
  • User interface
Drag and drop almost everything. The recommendations feature is awesome and actually builds the visualizations for you, unlike some of the competitors.
