Overall Satisfaction with TIBCO Jaspersoft

  • Pixel perfect reports
  • Highly customized reports using open source technology
  • Easy to use dashboard and ad hoc report builder
  • Repository interface is a flat structure. Folder or other structure would be best for numerous reports for several different departments.
  • Should come fully equipped with all available properties for High Charts
  • Better user guides that includes more information about configurations for styles, conditions, etc. that aren't covered in the guide.
Pentaho and Cognos have been used and evaluated. Jaspersoft is similar to Pentaho, but has better support forums to answer questions. Cognos is slightly more intuitive, but at a higher licensing cost.
Well suited for most applications. TIBCO offers other applications that can expand the functionality.
