Average Reporting solution
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Our software application uses TIBCO Jaspersoft as reporting partner for our products. This provides reporting capabilities to enterprise customers using our products. Our developers build and develop our products based on TIBCO Jaspersoft's reporting capabilities. The idea is to design and deploy inbuilt reports for our customers and also provide capabilities for end-users to build custom reports. We liked the integration capabilities for added functionality.
