Tibco is never Real Time
What do you like best about the product?
Although it is a pretty outdated platform, Tibco is very responsive to query and script writing. While this requires a lot of back end work and can be very very temperamental, it provides the opportunity to customize your data outputs.
What do you dislike about the product?
We dont like how updates are not life. Currently the system updates every 24 hours. This doesnt allow us to get real time date and instead leaves us estimating and projecting far more than we would ever want to. Furthermore, the filters and outputs are not full proof, and the percentage of data that is able to fall through is too much.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving issues that can be answered through data outputs. By using spitfire we can export data into excel and scv files in order to further evaluate performance, standing, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to take full advantage of data export features, they will be a life saver.
Really good but needs a better support
What do you like best about the product?
It really does what is supposed to do, and its quite fast!
What do you dislike about the product?
The costumer support is really a turn down when you need it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps a lot to gather data, something that you would do in hours you can do in minutes..
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider having a better local support. We have quite a hard time getting the support here in Brazil..
Way to expensive to get a little bit more ram/T3.medium and M3.medium don't work
It's incomprehensible who in their right mind would pay 200 an hour for this. The smallest instances also don't work. With only 1 vcpu, the operating system takes all the resources and you can only view/work with the smallest instances.
On the other side though the c3/c4 medium work fine. At least if you are not using too much ram. Kind of price gauging to be able to get 8 gb of ram for 6 an hour. Sort of rediculous. If I want to integrate this into my workflow and leave it on, I don't want to spend 50 a day just to leave this software on. I can handle 10-15. But come on, let me have 8 gb of ram!!!!
I don't think they thought this one through.
