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."Data Factory's best features are simplicity and flexibility."
"Azure Data Factory became more user-friendly when data-flows were introduced."
"In terms of my personal experience, it works fine."
"This solution has provided us with an easier, and more efficient way to carry out data migration tasks."
"It makes it easy to collect data from different sources."
"For me, it was that there are dedicated connectors for different targets or sources, different data sources. For example, there is direct connector to Salesforce, Oracle Service Cloud, etcetera, and that was really helpful."
"The most important feature is that it can help you do the multi-threading concepts."
"It is a complete ETL Solution."
"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 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."
"The ability to create a real-time data mark, using just one piece of software, is the best feature of this product."
"We particularly like the data angling feature of this solution. This gives us the ability to work on data transformations, join files, and carry out other data preparation tasks all in a single tool."
"Live Query data on demand, R and Python integration, and the ability to write HTML and JavaScript text areas are all valuable features."
"The most valuable feature is the map visuals that help us connect to the geo-specialized data which is more advanced than other solutions."
"This solution allows us to integrate data from across all client departments, for effective reporting via a single dashboard."
"The solution is an affordable one."
"The pricing model should be more transparent and available online."
"I rate Azure Data Factory six out of 10 for stability. ADF is stable now, but we had problems recently with indexing on an SQL database. It's slow when dealing with a huge volume of data. It depends on whether the database is configured as general purpose or hyperscale."
"Azure Data Factory uses many resources and has issues with parallel workflows."
"This solution is currently only useful for basic data movement and file extractions, which we would like to see developed to handle more complex data transformations."
"There is no built-in pipeline exit activity when encountering an error."
"There aren't many third-party extensions or plugins available in the solution."
"Data Factory's cost is too high."
"If the user interface was more user friendly and there was better error feedback, it would be helpful."
"The solution might be generic."
"The design of the UI could be improved."
"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."
"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."
"Personalising Spotfire, as a whole, is painful and is something that could be made easier."
"The number of charts available out of the box in Spotfire can be enhanced."
"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 initial setup is complicated and needs experience and knowledge."
