Pros
"The most valuable feature is real-time streaming.""The product is very user-friendly.""The most valuable features of Spring Cloud Data Flow are the simple programming model, integration, dependency Injection, and ability to do any injection. Additionally, auto-configuration is another important feature because we don't have to configure the database and or set up the boilerplate in the database in every project. The composability is good, we can create small workloads and compose them in any way we like.""There are a lot of options in Spring Cloud. It's flexible in terms of how we can use it. It's a full infrastructure."

Cons
"On the tool's online discussion forums, you may get stuck with an issue, making it an area where improvements are required.""Spring Cloud Data Flow could improve the user interface. We can drag and drop in the application for the configuration and settings, and deploy it right from the UI, without having to run a CI/CD pipeline. However, that does not work with Kubernetes, it only works when we are working with jars as the Spring Cloud Data Flow applications.""The configurations could be better. Some configurations are a little bit time-consuming in terms of trying to understand using the Spring Cloud documentation.""Some of the features, like the monitoring tools, are not very mature and are still evolving."

More Spring Cloud Data Flow Cons →

"The initial setup of TIBCO Spotfire is in the middle range of difficulty. The initial setup of Power BI is easier.""The handling and consumption of realtime data could be improved.""We would like to see some development in the visualization aspect of this solution, as they can currently only be configured in the cloud, which limits us to one endpoint. It would be helpful if this could be integrated with other tools.""The way TIBCO Spotfire is designed, in my opinion, is the reason why it lags a bit, especially compared to other BI tools like Qlik.""Personalising Spotfire, as a whole, is painful and is something that could be made easier.""The number of charts available out of the box in Spotfire can be enhanced.""Print capability and trigger-based events.""The Text Area feature needs to be more user-friendly. It is a little clunky to use, and it is difficult to consistently format text."
