Overall Satisfaction with TIBCO Jaspersoft
- Jaspersoft provides flexibility to create new domains dynamically instead of enforcing the need pre-defining them prior to launch of the product.
- Easy to integrate with any application
- Enhanced mobile app will make it handy to use jaspersoft even when we are not at home.
- We have a default RowLimit of 200K set in the application at server level. We do not have an option to make it tenant specific.
- Few customers on a shared machine will want it to increase it to 500K but with this limitation it'll be applied for all other customers sharing the same server and that might affect performance.
- Error screens
- Jaspersoft shows the complete 200+ lines of stack trace in an error screen in the UI. We can have better error handling applied while displaying in UI..
- In the application logs, it is better to include the tenant info as well. Otherwise, it is confusing to debug issue of one tenant while other tenants are being used.
- Tenant level auditing.
- As per jaspersoft, enabling auditing will have performance hit on the server. As we do not have option to enable tenant level auditing, it is enabling auditing on all tenants and causing performance issues.
- SSRS
We earlier used SSRS for few years and we used to define a fixed set of domains in the product and build a UI to drag & drop the columns from those domains to create a report. If a customer needs a report on a tables/column that is not part of any of these domains, they had to wait till the next release for us to add that domain in the product.
With the domain designer capabilities of Jaspersoft, this has become fully dynamic for an end user to create the domain that they want & build reports on top of them instead of waiting for next releases.
