Why Jaspersoft
Jaspersoft's business intelligence tool provides self-service access to an embeddable reporting and analytics platform that vastly speeds up the time to insights, and allows more users to more easily utilize BI functions.
Product Details
TIBCO Jaspersoft business intelligence software provides organizations with fast, easy insights across a host of platforms, applications, and infrastructure environments. Jaspersoft has a scalable, modular, standards-based design that allows the flexibility needed for a wide variety of deployments.
Reporting and analytics can be accessed within an on-premise or cloud app. Dashboards, visualizations, rich analytics including a web-scale platform, and self-service reports are just a few of the capabilities supported by Jaspersoft, which can be easily embedded in both internal and commerical applications.
The web-scale platform allows users to share interactive dashboards and reports from a single page, and with people across the company. Insights can also be shared externally with a single click.
Jaspersoft utilizes big data to its fullest potential. The tool can connect with and present information for Cassandra Analytics, MongoDB Analytics, Hadoop Analytics, and many others. Reports and dashboards can be constructed directly from such warehouses wihtout moving the data to another database.
Big data can also be easily blended with other sources utilizing either normal ETL capabilities, or the interactive, intuitive Data Virtualization tool. Dashboards can then be embedded with your company’s app, or can be used to improve business efficiency.
Features
One of Jaspersoft's most notable features is its reporting ability, which helps end-users stay swiftly informed and make better business decisions. Their reporting tools draw data from multiple places and display it in a simple, straightforward, interactive way for users to analyze and draw insights from.
Jaspersoft's data analysis software allows users to discover trends in their data and find any existing issues within the business. The tool can be used to model and to present in a visual format all types of data. It utilizes both OLAP and in-memory analysis to make fast, accurate decisions.
Dashboards allow business users to understand the status of their company the way that the dashboard of a car allows a driver to understand the status of their vehicle. Jaspersoft combines data with graphical indicators to provide a holistic view of a company's status with just a single glance at a single screen.
Finally, Jaspersoft's data integration capabilities are certianly of note. They allow users the ability to build their own data mart of warehouse, and provide software extract, transform, and load (ETL) abilities, so that users can move data of different types and from different sources into a single place, under a single heading.

Customer Service & Support
Users of Jaspersoft can login to an online account on their website where they can create and track requests and investigate support resources to help them in their use of the product.
There are three types of paid support options available. They include Self-Service Express Support, Professional Standard Support, and Professional Premium Support. Each is slightly more expensive than the one before it, and accordingly offers more services.
They also feature a unique section called "Self-Service Support" which is a compilation of documents, resource guides, instruction manuels, and intuitive search technologies which allow non-expert users to navigate their issues on their own. There is an advanced version of this service called Self-Service Express, available at a price.
Shortcomings
Jaspersoft offers comparatively minimal technical support, which many users do not find an issue due to the user-friendly, interactive interface, and the ability for users to have self-service access.
Many users experienced frustration with the lack of Impala connectivity. This would have allowed the bypassing of the map reduce face in Hive. As it stands, the speed of reporting and dashboarding is not what it could be.
