Overall Satisfaction with Spotfire
Across the organization by maybe ~10-20% of the overall staff (~1/3 of the engineers/geologists). Mainly being used as a visualization tool, though personally I am still getting better acquainted to it. My key thing is that a lot of what I see as its value I can also do in Excel which I am much more adept at. One key thing with Spotfire is the ability to tie to live data sources. I'm hoping to figure out ways to use Spotfire for more advanced analytics.
- Tie to live data sources
- customization with formulas
- sharing work books
- more user friendly interface
- better customization of the asthetics of the charts etc
- I haven't used it enough to see the value. So far most things I've done can also be done with Excel.
I've used Verdazo/Visage extensively at my last job. I find it to be a more user friendly software. Though the thing that makes Spotfire potentially far superior is its customization ability, and ability to work on the back end by the user. For example being able to tie data sources, put in formulas for analytics.
