Overall Satisfaction with TIBCO Spotfire Platform

Spotfire Platform is being used to find relationships between seemingly unrelated data. Currently, Spotfire is only being used by a specific department. Spotfire allows my team to provide our clients with great visuals that make the data mean something.

Pros

  • Simplicity. Spotfire is very user friendly and easy to navigate.
  • Create Details Visualization. This button is used tremendously. It allows for controlling one graph from another.
  • Manipulation. The charts and tables can be filtered and manipulated to get at the exact information you're looking for.

Cons

  • A filter ability where the date will stay current and update another filter date to always be X amount of days before.
  • The coding language isn't the easiest. I don't know if using a more well known computer language is possible.
  • The modeling features could have more notes about them.
Spotfire was chosen over Tableau originally because Spotfire is a lot less expensive. I prefer Spotfire over Power BI because of the create details visualization button and the entire Spotfire interface is easy to navigate.
The create details visualization button makes Spotfire well suited. It may be less suited when having to perform a lot of equations - in this case Excel may be preferred.
