"It's saved time using visualization descriptions."
"This solution is easy to implement, has a wide variety of connectors, has support for Visual Basic, and supports the C language."
"With this solution, there is the potential to expand, so that you can immediately write code onto the SQL server."
"The most valuables features are the relatively short learning curve, and the automation capabilities provided through the BIML add-in for SSDT."
"Data Flows are the main component we use. These can range from a simple source to sink ETL, to many source to many sink dataflows."
"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."
"The solution is an affordable one."
"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 most valuable feature is the map visuals that help us connect to the geo-specialized data which is more advanced than other solutions."

"SSIS should be made a little bit more intuitive and user-friendly because it needs an expert-level person to work on it."
"Sometimes, there are compatibility issues with some features. From time to time, I also face issues when trying to migrate. If I misconfigure things when I use Snapshot, the migration will fail.It can take a long time to migrate huge amounts of data, so it would be nice if that could be faster."
"SSIS can improve by the minimum code requirements in stored procedures and exporting data is difficult. They could make it easier, it should be as easy as it is to import data."
"The high prices attached to the product can be an area of concern where improvements are required."
"We would like the solution to be expanded so that it is available for other platforms than just Microsoft."
"I would like to see more features in terms of the integration with Azure Data Factory."
"We In upgrading SSIS, we encountered challenges fixing SQL Server and performance issues, including problems during a failover in our data warehouse."
"Personalising Spotfire, as a whole, is painful and is something that could be made easier."
"The handling and consumption of realtime data could be improved."
"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."
"The solution might be generic."
"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."
"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 initial setup can be difficult."
"I would like to see the visualization library in this solution expanded, so that I can increase what I can offer to our clients."
