We performed a comparison between TIBCO BusinessWorks and TIBCO Spotfire based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Integration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."BusinessWorks reduces development time, helping developers to focus on business logic."
"One of the most valuable features is data transformation. We have some legacy systems which are in old technology, like SOAP, whereas the new ones are in REST. So we use BusinessWorks to transform data from one format to another, from SOAP to REST."
"The most important thing is that it is easy for developers to work with."
"Customer support is very efficient."
"Good performance and reliability."
"The most valuable feature is the low-code platform."
"I work in operations, so I value BusinessWorks' performance the most."
"The ability to link to different technologies is valuable to us."
"One of the main features is integrated statistical analysis."
"I appreciate Spotfire's range of visualization options, advanced analytics features, and seamless integration with other TIBCO products."
"We used it pretty heavily in gathering data, which goes to our VPs. They are able to base their next revenue planning based on this metric. So, it has been invaluable."
"This solution allows us to integrate data from across all client departments, for effective reporting via a single dashboard."
"The most valuable features of TIBCO Spotfire are visualization. It's very nice, clear, and, flexible. You can analyze many data types and the user interface is very good."
"The two features that I have found most valuable are its ability to customize the dashboards when it comes to the evaluation. The second feature is its ability to handle a large amount of data, which is also something very unique about it."
"From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic."
"Spotfire is excellent for scientific applications, especially because of its integration with RNG."
"I'd like to see a new cloud approach in the next release. They need to work on integrations, stability and management issues on their cloud platform."
"Improve Business Studio's stability to further minimize development time."
"A possible improvement could be to give the capability to use different profiles for each AppNode when an application is deployed on an AppSpace."
"TIBCO BusinessWorks could be improved with cloud support."
"There are not many plugins available to integrate the databases. We have to write it in Java and integrate it. The developers should have more knowledge. These are the three main aspects that they could improve."
"This solution's cloud could be improved. I don't know whether it was because we didn't have the internal expertise or if it was the product itself, but since they came later—I think only two or three years into the cloud—after many other iPaaS that had been in the cloud for longer, I feel that maybe they haven't matured in terms of the cloud."
"The container-based image is too large and this makes auto-scaling difficult."
"Could be more user friendly in the development area."
"The initial setup can be difficult."
"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."
"The handling and consumption of realtime data could be improved."
"One aspect where Spotfire could improve is its global recognition, especially in terms of support."
"The initial setup is complicated and needs experience and knowledge."
"We would like an easier way to get the product to the cloud. Right now, we have the on-premise version, and we would like to find a way to make it easier to migrate it over to the cloud."
"The data compression has room for improvement."
"The design of the UI could be improved."
