Spotfire
yes it was easy to learn, but the advantage of working with a different BI tool, you can get hold of this too fast, over a period of time there were hurdles but we used to have intermediate sessions from the company (which stopped now) on the new features and releases, there is also a lot of webinar series organized by the company, joining them once a month solves many technical problems(but nothing specific for our organization). Ofcourse there is the TIBCO forum, where most of your encountered problems are already discussed. If its a new problem we need to get creative and read the documentation which is good.

Excellent way to slice and dice your data and answer your questions!
I believe it is easy to use without training for IT professionals who are acclimated to reporting software. For business users, it is a different story. They generally need some basic training on how to get started.

I began using this product with zero training whatsoever. I found this to be an effective approach as I was able to dive in head first.

Awesome
Yes, totally!!
Intuitive, easy to use, the manual is well done and organize, so it gives you the possibility to consult specific points!
A very nice product! Easy to learn how to use! Gives us the possibility to get data from different databases (which is a key point when working with different departments, because each has it's own system).

Spotfire is Great For Data Visuals!
I would not recommend this approach. The online training got me a lot further, faster. You can certainly figure it out but the immediate impact after taking just a few weeks of training was a lot higher than trying to hack my way through the tool. The help section, though, is very good but just takes more time to piece together the topics.

Spotfire Review
I would recommend others get training.

Awesome data visualization tool
Yes, it was fairly easy to learn once you get passed the nuisances of the tool. I learned more by "playing" around in the tool.

Tibco Interview
It was easy to learn without training but all the functionalities weren't easy to find a the first sight. I had a fast and very useful presentation of the tool before using it.
October 31, 2017
On-line Training experience
Learning Spotfire is ok as long as you have installed Spotfire on your machine and with proper material. However, I strongly suggest taking in-person training with Spotfire so that you can understand numerous tool options.

Why Tibco Spotfire
I started working on Spotfire from version 5. It was pretty difficult to learn it back then but now with version v7.6, the tool doesn't seem that difficult to be adopted by the new resources and getting onboarded for this tool.

An online or in class training might be needed to appreciate every part of the software

Visual smorgasbord - feel like you're a savvy tech startup without the Seattle prices.
It was fairly straight forward to learn basic data connection and report creating. Luckily there is a healthy online community of Spotfire users where you can trouble shoot issues as they arise. I would recommend the self taught angle to anyone who is savvy enough to find help when they encounter hurdles.

Besides SF we need also to know the database, this make is complex
October 27, 2017
Great product with more great potential!
I would not recommend this to others unless they have the time to use Google for discussion boards and YouTube. There are a lot of moving parts in different areas that I think would be difficult and slow going if they had no training. I do believe though that if someone had a basic knowledge of the functionality, then they could then go to self taught to fill in gaps here and there as they expand their skills.

Opinion about TIBCO Spotfire
It was learn-able if you take the time, have the patience, and don't need to do anything else or get anything else done for a couple of weeks.
October 27, 2017
Spotfire Desktop Review
As long as you are passionate about learning and have in depth knowledge of software and connecting to a database and have previously created dashboards or other reporting through another product then you should be able to progress just fine. There are some helpful Blogs when you google as well and some you tube videos that can help as well.

Amazing tool to discover hidden stories in your data
Yes. If you are computationally inclined

Spotfire-- freedom to "play" with data and visualizations
Someone else had to show me the basics of how to bring information and set up the data, but once I understood how to do this, most of my learning was on my own trying to click through the program. This worked well for me, Spotfire makes it easy to "play" with visualizations, filters, etc. and once you know that anything you do in the program won't change the underlying data, it gives you a lot of freedom to learn by trying. I would absolutely recommend this to others (after getting help with the basic data import).
October 26, 2017
Handly Tool for Data Visualization and Analysis
Yes. The best part of self taught learning was that TIBCO has a very live and vibrant online community. You can always go to the portal / forum and clear your doubts. You get to learn on each day. This feature has has helped a lot, not only me as beneficiary but multiple people across my organisation.
October 26, 2017
Spotfire - complex and customized
It was not easy. I learned from more experienced colleagues' materials.
October 26, 2017
TIBCO Spotfire - Practical Outlook
The product is not easy to learn and unless you have a relational database background, it may be quite counterintuitive. The best way to learn this product is to start building visualizations and have someone around who can answer your questions. Online help is not very useful but [you] may get lucky and find some examples online.
October 26, 2017
1st Year of Spotfire
It's easy for simple visualization and analysis; it's difficult to learn customizations (Dials instead of KPIs, linking multiple tables, custom expressions).

TIBCO Spotfire - Data Analysis for Data Users
Yes, it is easy to use without training. There are many no-cost options available for learning on your own, and there are many examples of using Spotfire to analyze data available. Spotfire is a product that rewards experimentation. That said, it helps to develop a good set of "best practices" for your work...
