"TIBCO Spotfire is easy to use. We initiated Spotfire as POC, with support from a tech team based in South Africa. While they assisted with the setup, we conducted the POC ourselves.""One of the main features is integrated statistical analysis.""Live Query data on demand, R and Python integration, and the ability to write HTML and JavaScript text areas are all valuable features.""The product's initial setup phase was simple.""It’s stable and straightforward.""R and automation services.""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.""From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic."

Cons
"The need to work more on developing out-of-the-box connectors for other products like Oracle, AWS, and others.""The number of standard adaptors could be extended further.""It can improve from the perspective of active logging. It can provide active logging information.""There's no Oracle connector if you want to do transformation using data flow activity, so Azure Data Factory needs more connectors for data flow transformation.""The solution can be improved by decreasing the warmup time which currently can take up to five minutes.""Currently, our company requires a monitoring tool, and that isn't available in Azure Data Factory.""A room for improvement in Azure Data Factory is its speed. Parallelization also needs improvement.""The performance could be better. It would be better if Azure Data Factory could handle a higher load. I have heard that it can get overloaded, and it can't handle it."

More Azure Data Factory Cons →

"The initial setup is complicated and needs experience and knowledge.""When it comes to data manipulation, there are features which are good, but one of the features which has really been missing in Spotfire is an offline ability for data manipulation.""We encountered difficulties connecting the special data sets, as the post data set did not contain any shared columns, making it difficult to establish a connection between the data sets.""I would like more easy-to-implement analytical algorithms. At the moment they include things like forecasts and regressions. They need to add a lot more of these types of things to the product because not everyone is a data scientist.""Compared to competitors, the UI is quite dated.""The design of the UI 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.""When you do the data loading, it is slow."
