"The most valuable feature of AWS Glue is its ease of use and good documentation. Additionally, we can do all the transformations that we need."
"Glue is a NoSQL-based data ETL tool that has some advantages over IIS and ISAs."
"AWS Glue is a stable and easy-to-use solution."
"The facility to integrate with S3 and the possibility to use Jupyter Notebook inside the pipeline are the most valuable features."
"It's fairly straightforward as a product; it's not very complicated."
"The product has a valuable feature for data catalog."
"I like that it's flexible, powerful, and allows you to write your own queries and scripts to get the needed transformations."
"From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic."
"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."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"The ability to connect to many different data sources is one of the key features. The other would then be the different ways in which that data can be visualized."
"It allows users to quickly analyze data from a variety of sources and visualize it with powerful, interactive graphs, and charts."
"R and automation services."
"Spotfire is excellent for scientific applications, especially because of its integration with RNG."
"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."
"It is not clear how the partition discovery would have been affected by more data coming in."
"It fails to handle massive databases acquired from various sources."
"I would like to see a more robust interface on the no-code side. This would be nice to be able to split cells."
"The crucial problem with AWS Glue is that it only works with AWS. It is not an agnostic tool like Pentaho. In PowerCenter, we can install the forms from Google and other vendors, but in the case of AWS Glue, we can only use AWS."
"I have encountered challenges with multi-region support."
"The interface for AWS Glue could improve, they do not put a lot of details. You can write the code, in PySpark or in Scala, which is a big advantage, it is only easy to use for a developer. It will be difficult for new users to enter the cloud environment."
"I would like to see stable libraries at the moment they are not there."
"We face performance issues when using AWS Glue for data transformation and integration."
"When you do the data loading, it is slow."
"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."
"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."
"The design of the UI could be improved."
"The data compression has room for improvement."
"Personalising Spotfire, as a whole, is painful and is something that could be made easier."
"The initial setup of TIBCO Spotfire is in the middle range of difficulty. The initial setup of Power BI is easier."
"We would like to see some improvement in the default properties of the solution, so that there is less need for us to spend our time coding."
