TIBCO Jaspersoft is a cost-effective solution and it works well for not so complex, large reporting needs. It comes with good deployment and integration capabilities. It requires a higher level of learning and understanding if your report-building requirements are from large and complex datasets. We have our own challenges with getting our issues fixed in a timely manner.

It is well suited for the fact of scalability itself and the breadth of features this application has in order to make the migration from legacy systems to the newer different versions more seamless and effective. Data integrity and security are the main aspects of this tool which does not lose their value when doing day-to-day operations for data mapping.

TIBCO Jaspersoft is suitable for environments where reports need to be generated from a database and related entitiees in the language (e.g. JAVA) in different formats like Word, Excel, pdf etc. And later on can be used for different purposes like analysis or circulations. It is suitable for the average data set which does not have a huge amount of data that needs to be processed. Applicable for miscroservices rest applications as well.

Situations where TIBCO Jasper report is not suitable:
  1. Where data volume is quite dense.
  2. A complex insightful reports need to be generated which includes charts, graphs and such representations for analysis.

Jaspersoft is very well suited for generating reports with small and medium data. It can't handle huge data efficiently. UI needs to be optimized and modernized to look more elegant. It generates both static and dynamic reports. It doesn't have dashboard capabilities in reporting edition. Overall it's a great report generating tool with minimal design and a good feature set.

Used for monthly S&OP process. We are able to display various different metrics on a single dashboard and can toggle seamlessly to different views at yeh request of the meeting attendees. Once set up it is very easy to change views to suit the audience.

Embedded reporting, dashboards, and enabling self-service reporting capabilities into existing applications are scenarios where the product is very well suited. In order to connect to a higher variety of data sources, an enterprise license will be required.

Startups with fewer clients or smaller data sets would be well served to adopt Jaspersoft Enterprise Edition as their report tool to embed in their solution. Its ability to provide a strong customer experience, flexible report filters and configurations, and easily deployable are strong benefits. However, as your customer base and data demands grow, it is possible that you will need to evaluate and select another vendor in the future as performance can slow to unacceptable levels.

It is suited for transactional reports to run a large number of reports with fewer pages.

It is not suited for reports with thousands of pages, but they'll still work with more memory and CPU.

We did a lot of research when selecting Jaspersoft because we have unique needs. In our case we needed to replace Oracle Discoverer so we need to give our customers an Adhoc experience. This does it well whereas other similar products are only focused on Analytics.

Fast development with wide sets of data sources and good support. It is easy to create dashboards and multiple levels of reporting. The only problem is we need to create a report for each drill down separately.

Well suited for very simple reports with only a few data elements. Not well suited for large reports. For large reports with a large number of data elements, it's very difficult to design the report or especially update the designed report. For example, once a data element has to be inserted in the middle of a report, a tedious pixel renumbering has to be done for the entire report.

It suited well for TABLE format reports and lightweight dashboards. It is very easy for the deployment team to plug and play with the product. Easy to integrate with client applications with hand ready REST APIs.

Jaspersoft is most well-suited in an enterprise environment where a common reporting and BI framework is needed complete with end-user support. It's also well-suited for integration with other applications using the API and Java libraries. It would be way too complicated and overkill for a small business that just wants to generate and run a few reports, with only one person developing and managing those reports (quite common).

Well suited for businesses who need enterprise-level reporting, dashboards, exports with scheduling capabilities, or for creating "pixel-perfect" reports. Also, for embedding reports and dashboards into your own application. This is not for things you can do easily in Microsoft Word or Excel, this is an intuitive scalable application.

TIBCO Jaspersoft is well suited for users who are not too technical. These users are able to easily drag and drop domain fields from their database to create friendly table reports. Users can easily add filters to their reports which allows for reusability. On the other hand, if a user is looking to add information that has many-to-many relationships, duplicates will appear. Having duplicates in an ad-hoc view and not being able to easily remove them is a big issue for many of our clients.

Well suited for formatting needs and specific export types.
Great for creating static scheduled reports because they are easily editable by non-developers.

Less suited for non-developer level users if looking for an ad hoc tool as I believe they still need to do more work in making the ease-of-use of their ad hoc tool so that it is more accessible to entry-level users to reporting software.

TIBCO Jaspersoft is an excellent reporting tool that makes creating live interactive reports and dashboards very easy. These graphically rich reports can be embedded in our application, emails or simply printed out without any additional hassle.

I think that Jaspersoft lends itself very well to scenarios in which a company has a set of static reports that are going to be generated frequently. Whether it is internal reports, or external customer facing reports, Jasper does the job and does it well. In scenarios where reports need to be more dynamic, such as changing columns, it is less appropriate.

Well Suited: Jaspersoft is the optimum solution for embedded reports. It allows this to be done seamlessly where a user would assume you wrote the reporting directly into the web page rather than embedding a tool.

Less Appropriate: I would not recommend native Jaspersoft as an ad-hoc reporting tool for the end-user. Because it provides so much flexibility, it is probably a bit too complex for the end-user.

A good BI visualization solution where you need a balance between powerful functionality and detailed customization. Good breadth of functionality (canned reports, self-service etc).
