We performed a comparison between SSIS and TIBCO Spotfire based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."The most valuable thing is that it is easy to connect with Microsoft tools. In Europe, particularly in France, a lot of companies use Excel, SQL Server, and other Microsoft tools, and it is easier to connect SSIS with Microsoft tools than other products."
"The data reader is the most valuable feature."
"The main value of any Microsoft product is the ease of use. You can achieve more with less time. That's what's beneficial for me. With many competitors, you might need to spend more time coming up with a solution because you have to focus on taking care of the product."
"SSIS' best feature is SFTP connectivity."
"It's saved time using visualization descriptions."
"It is easily scheduled and integrates well with SQL Server and SQL Server Agent jobs."
"The setup is straightforward. It's very easy to install."
"The script component is very powerful, things that you cannot normally do, is feasible through C#."
"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."
"From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic."
"R and automation services."
"The ability to create a real-time data mark, using just one piece of software, is the best feature of this product."
"This solution allows us to integrate data from across all client departments, for effective reporting via a single dashboard."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"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."
"One of the main features is integrated statistical analysis."
"I would like to see more features in terms of the integration with Azure Data Factory."
"SSIS is stable, but extensive ETL data processing can have some performance issues."
"A change in the metadata source cripples the whole ETL process, requiring each module to be manually reopened."
"There were some issues when we tried to connect it to data storage. It was a connection issue."
"We've had issues in terms of the amount of data that is transferred when we are scheduling."
"The performance of this solution is not as good as other tools in the market."
"It hangs a lot of the time."
"The performance of SSIS could improve when comparing it to Oracle Database."
"When you do the data loading, it is slow."
"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."
"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 is complicated and needs experience and knowledge."
"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 number of charts available out of the box in Spotfire can be enhanced."
"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 handling and consumption of realtime data could be improved."
