Overall Satisfaction with TIBCO Jaspersoft Community Edition
My company is migrating reports from SSRS to Jasper now. After migration it will be used across the company. It will be used as a reporting tool to demonstrate the sales, bookings, etc. info from underlying datawarehouse.
- It has better performance. The first page of a report will be displayed as soon as the data comes, and users can read the first page while waiting for the other pages to load.
- The structure of the reports are in XML format, which makes it easily readable and editable.
- It is Java based, experienced Java developer can tailor the report with their own needs.
- Vague error message. Usually something like "Some error happened, please contact your administrator". It's impossible to locate the root cause quickly.
- Exporting. When exporting report to xlsx, docs, pptx format, the layouts are not perfect.
- Report width cannot be increased automatically.
My company has some cooperation with TIBCO, so they want to push Jaspersoft.
