Overall Satisfaction with Spotfire

By using Spotfire, I could collaborate with people from another department to analyze the same set of clinical data, and often times, that helped us to look at the same data with different angles and thus providing fresh insights. Definitely more interactive and real-time compared to email for example. When data is updated, it is also updated real-time, so it helps with version control.
  • Interactive
  • Provides a trail for others to follow how a particular analysis was done
  • Version control
  • Some limitations on customization of the graphics but not an issue
  • Did not quantify in financial terms, but it allowed for ease of visualization and more productive discussions
Haven't tried. It's already pretty powerful as it is!
Great for visualization of complex datasets without having to learn scripting. Not so good if the data itself needs to be cleaned, adjusted, merged, etc., before visualization.

Spotfire Training

  • Online training
  • Self-taught
Basics can be picked up easily but at times, trial and error works too! Learning the more in-depth functionalities will take more time, but is dependent on the need. And the fact that my colleagues use the same software too, means that I could approach them for discussions on how to present the data in a particular way or another.
