Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"One of the main features is integrated statistical analysis."
"Spotfire is excellent for scientific applications, especially because of its integration with RNG."
"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."
"Live Query data on demand, R and Python integration, and the ability to write HTML and JavaScript text areas are all valuable features."
"It’s stable and straightforward."
"R and automation services."
"The out-of-the-box features are simple and easy to use across the board."
"What I found most valuable in webMethods Integration Server is that it's a strong ESB. It also has strong API modules and portals."
"It is a bundled product stack for A2A and B2B usage. It is one of the best products which I have used during my integration career."
"The tool is very powerful and user-friendly."
"The comprehensiveness and depth of Integration Servers' connectors to packaged apps and custom apps is unlimited. They have a connector for everything. If they don't, you can build it yourself. Or oftentimes, if there is value for other customers as well, you can talk with webMethods about creating a new adapter for you."
"We have a reusable code that we can replicate for any new interfaces."
"The main assets are its flow language, debugging, and Broker. Flow language is far better and more flexible for debugging."
"The most valuable feature of the webMethods Integration Server is the built-in monitoring, auditing, RETS, and SOAP services."
"I would say the core Web-based integrations work the best. They are the most efficient and robust implementations one can do with webMethods."

"Print capability and trigger-based events."
"The initial setup is complicated and needs experience and knowledge."
"I would like to see the visualization library in this solution expanded, so that I can increase what I can offer to our clients."
"The number of charts available out of the box in Spotfire can be enhanced."
"One aspect where Spotfire could improve is its global recognition, especially in terms of support."
"The initial setup of TIBCO Spotfire is in the middle range of difficulty. The initial setup of Power BI is easier."
"webMethods Integration Server could improve on the version control. I'm not sure if Web Method has some kind of inbuilt integration with Bitbucket or GitHub or some kind of version control system. However, that's one area where they can improve."
"Technical support is an area where they can improve."
"wM SAP Adapter User Guide - Example, like Message Broker setup was unclear, leading to issues during Testing and we had refer the internet forums to understand that there is a Message Broker Cleanup utility and that needs to be setup as well."
"For code version control, you need to use some external software."
"The UI for the admin console is very old. It hasn't been updated for years and is pretty much the same one that we started with. This is something that could be refreshed and made more modern."
"The product must add more compatible connectors."
"One area that needs improvement is the version upgrade process. Many customers I've worked with encounter challenges when transitioning from their current version, such as x or 9, to a newer version. The process is not smooth, and they must shift their entire website."
"Rapid application development has to be considered, especially for UI, where user interference is crucial."
