Key learnings from peers

Valuable Features

Key aspects praised are automated email group setups sending daily reports, allowing efficient information dissemination. The ability to drill down into reports provides detailed data analysis at various levels, including indirect costs and resources. Users appreciate the ease of setting up visualizations, which enhances data comprehension. Performance is also highlighted as a significant advantage.
  • "The most valuable feature is the performance."
  • "The most valuable feature is the ease of setting up visualizations."
  • "We like the way we can drill down into each report to get back data on each project. From the portfolio level, I can see what is happening on it. That is a really important feature. I can look at indirect costs, for example, which are hitting each CIO portfolio. It's good to be able to see actual resources in terms of time as well as cost."

Room for Improvement

TIBCO Data Science's installation process could be streamlined by consolidating multiple components into a single file. Enhanced templates, particularly for sectors like mining, are needed to expedite report creation. The interface should be more intuitive, especially for filtering, and support easier database connections. Latency issues arise with big data from Data Lake, and scripting options require refinement. Users face challenges with table crossing on Spotfire, indicating a need for greater user-friendliness.
  • "The scripting for customization could be improved."
  • "I would like the visualization for the map of countries to be more easily configurable."
  • "In terms of performance, I can see there are some issues when you are working with big data. When we are taking it from the Data Lake, we have a lot of issues."

Service and Support

Technical support for TIBCO Data Science is generally satisfactory. Users typically attempt to solve issues independently before reaching out. When needed, they log tickets through the support site, often receiving links to existing resolutions. In cases requiring more assistance, WebEx sessions are arranged for remote support. Coordination can be challenging due to time zone differences. Although technical support is praised, community support is noted to be less robust compared to Tableau, with older issues remaining unresolved.

Deployment

Users found TIBCO Data Science's initial setup to be both complex and straightforward. Some achieved easier implementation, while others faced challenges connecting data to Spotfire, needing to join tables and deal with performance issues that required caching solutions. Deployment took about 15 days for some, due to the necessity of additional scripting to display specific columns properly. Despite these challenges, some found the basic setup manageable.

Scalability

TIBCO Data Science offers easy scalability across different versions, allowing for smooth transitions. Clients find setup on different nodes manageable. While the platform can expand, it requires effort, and scalability might not match competitors like Tableau. Clients considering increased usage weigh options between TIBCO Data Science and more user-friendly platforms. User numbers vary by organization, and scalability experiences depend on organizational size. Some clients are more comfortable with other platforms for expansion needs.

Stability

TIBCO Data Science is considered stable by users, though some experience inconsistencies. Bugs are typically unrelated to Spotfire itself. Database credential changes can cause issues if not communicated effectively. Comparatively, its stability is seen as inferior to Tableau. Data refresh from a database has been slow in the past, but performance with Excel sheets is fast. On a general note, users find it to be stable.
