They continue to listen to analyst on how to improve the platform and turn out new versions frequently. I would pick Spotfire over any BI platform on the market. Pros Flexibility, Data prep and data wrangling abilities within the platform. Spotfire will allow any end user to enhance their data discovery which will allow for faster decision making. Cons More customers should be using Spotfire. More capabilities than the two leading BI platforms on the market but they unfortunately own the market share. I've never met anyone that has used Spotfire that hasn't agreed Spotfire is a better tool. Spotfire's marketing strategy could use some work. Switched from [Tableau](https://www.capterra.com/p/208764/Tableau/) Tableau wasn't an all in one tool like Spotfire is. I've found that Spotfire is easier to work with over Tableau.
