TIBCO Jaspersoft to ease tailored reporting needs for end users

  • TIBCO Jaspersoft is able to integrate perfectly with our custom business application.
  • TIBCO Jaspersoft has a valuable designer to let the end users design their own tailored reports based on a selection of data provided in application design phase.
  • TIBCO Jaspersoft is able to manage multi-tenancy for our end users, allowing for the segregation of duties and data isolation.
Cons
  • It requires a lot of resources to provide a good end user experience, especially in terms of memory.
  • The management of custom domains to define the users and properties is hard to manage, causing a tree-structure with too many leaves.
  • The integration between TIBCO and SQL Server should be improved since its installation and maintenance is currently not as easy as the integrated database solution.
The scenario where TIBCO Jaspersoft is perfectly fitting is the integration with a custom business application, where end users are required to use a custom designer to define their personal reports, tailored to their needs, based on a specific set of data information, which can be identified in the application design phase. This allows the designers to limit the scope of the data, but allows the user the freedom to design the look and feel of their reports.

Top heavy but worth it in the end!

  • Pixel perfect reports
  • Multi-tenancy
  • Jaspersoft Studio - a powerful tool for designing reports and publishing them seamlessly to the server
  • SSO (Single Sign-On)
  • Affordable BI stack
Cons
  • Dated UI. Definitely not Web 2.0!
  • Multi-tenant row level security and data domains are not easily implemented without consultants.
  • Learning curve. Training and documentation drives success, even for technical folks.
  • Lack of sample reports/templates for the education vertical.
  • Server config/license management should be web accessible for the superuser.
Well Suited:
  1. Organizations with technical staff (db,web,Java,Linux,etc.).
  2. Multi-tenant SaaS vendors
  3. Broader strategy support as in Basic Analytics to Enterprise BI level scaling.
Less Appropriate:
  1. Basic Analytics
  2. Lack of dedicated technical resources. Impacts on deployment models. E.g. Data Warehouse.Y/N?
  3. Jaspersoft Studio needs in enterprise multi-tenant environments

Profitability for Non-Profits!

  • Easy to use tool for report creation for end users with layout control, look and feel, and output options.
  • End users like the ability to run and distribute reports at predetermined times.
  • Drill down capabilities from dashboards to source data is very useful.
Cons
  • New release updates from Jaspersoft disconnects existing reports so they have to be recreated continuously. Our end users have to maintain countless domains from older versions as to not break the links to their reports with the latest version updates.
  • Jaspersoft Studio is very complex for an end user tool and requires someone with extensive SQL knowledge. Studio is a better tool for the creation of dashboards for our applications, so our end users have to rely on us.
  • Version updates from Jaspersoft break our Java interfaces to our application such as single sign on and security events.
Jaspersoft is well suited for our end users from a price perspective, with ease of use at the top of the list. As mentioned before, Studio is challenging for our end user community.

JasperServer - A good reporting solution.

  • Interactive reporting tool. We can create a tabular format, cross tab, and charts. Studio support to create more colorful reports.
  • Domain support. End users can create their own reports by using domains.
  • User-friendly UI.
  • Features like scheduling, dashboards topics and more.
Cons
  • Scalability issues.
  • Performance is comparatively slow in large scale DBs.
  • Can do better in domain designer. Even domain designer gets slow if domain becomes large in scale.
  • Support cases could be addressed more faster with appropriate solutions.
JasperServer is a good fit for enterprise applications where end users are required to use a custom designer to define their own reports to their needs(multi-tenancy features, multi-user support, role and user-based security model).

  • Embedding within the applications
  • Ease of use of API interaction
  • Robust security features to enable access control
Cons
  • Better charting and dashboarding capabilities
  • More flexible report designer, specially around being able to merge data from different domains
  • Faster performance
Jaspersoft is well suited for applications that want to expose a reporting framework as an embedded feature. It allows a very seamless experience for the end users.

It is still not at par with the likes of Tableau or MicroStrategy in terms of visuals and the speed and ease with which the other platforms allow users to view data
