In my experience, InetSoft has been very useful in consolidating, visualizing, and democratizing data. It has helped me in many projects, especially given my role as a growth analytics and market insights specialist. Can't really think of scenarios where it is less appropriate.

Cons
  • I would like to see a more robust version of their online help
  • The speed of their business support is adequate, but I kind of expect more from such a powerhouse.
  • Problems with duration of cluster life

  • I think the user interface is in need of an upgrade, as its starting to show it's age a little. It looks like it needs a rehaul in the department.
  • Hopefully, the company can grow and then have more frequent interactions with their customers.
  • I am slightly wary that support may not have the same proficiency at the very highest level, as my company reaches the expert user level.

We found that InetSoft Style Intelligence was easier to use and provided more enhanced functionality and more visibility in terms of visualizing information and data. During the proof of concept trials, we found that the dashboards were easier to create and the overall usage and the GUI were simpler, cleaner, more user friendly. Our product license costs were also cheaper.

Return on Investment
  • It has saved us quite a bit of time managing our catalog of clusters and keeping things organized.
  • Since we had a division we acquired running IBM Cloud, it was easy to get it running and try it out, but we found we prefer our Azure configuration better simply to keep our technology in alignment across corporate functions.
  • I definitely see some cost savings by separating out the storage and compute. It helps you start to put an appropriate price tag on certain instances of big data.
