Overall Satisfaction with Spotfire Data Science

We regularly use Spotfire Data Science as a means to share and develop code that we make and use for our geologic informational systems programs. We are usually working in VBS script or in Python, so Spotfire Data Science is a great tool for multiple people in the lab to work on Python codes.
  • Collaborative interface that allows multiple people to work on the same project
  • Very user friendly
  • Minimum coding
  • Some basic tutorials on coding, such as introduction to Python would be great
  • It would be nice to have a direct output to ArcGIS files
  • An online database of code would be helpful for open sourced products
  • Greater collaboration from all members of the project team
  • More transparency on goals, methods, and the project in general
  • Better integration of tools and codes among the group
I personally like the collaborative and team-centered aspects of Spotfire Data Science better than most other programs. In this way I think it stands out among competitors with both its ease of use and fluid userface. Some of the other programs, such as MATLAB, seem to do a generally better job in the more simple, straightforward, or small projects
It is great for working in groups on large projects. I like how you can further organize users into ranks and groupings, which is much more powerful than most other programs. I also like that the userface is very collaborative, which allows greater success in data management. It is a little clunky for small projects or where only a few people are concerned.
