TIBCO Cloud Spotfire

Overall Satisfaction with Spotfire

Spotfire is used in my organization for efficient analysis of various market data. It is used to represent a large volume of data in a visual way that enables us to spot new and emerging trends that can impact the bottom line of businesses in the long run. We often use advanced data visualization of Spotfire for efficient trend or pattern analysis.
  • Data visualizations.
  • Allows data sharing more easily with team members and colleagues.
  • I use the visualized data in PowerPoint for client reference. Using graphics is much easier than words.
  • The navigation within Spotfire is pretty confusing. The icons within Spotfire do not seem to be user-friendly.
  • Not very convenient for smaller size data.
  • The analyst version of Spotfire is quite expensive but since we are utilizing the platform almost fully, the paid is justified.
  • ROI is reasonably positive as we are utilising Tibco Spotfire in consulting deliverables.
n/a
Spotfire is convenient for a research analyst or data analyst. Spotfire works more on quantitative data analysis rather than qualitative. The insights gathered through this software are more on the behavior of data itself hence, Spotfire is more suitable for pattern and trend analysis.
