Do you want to do ad-hoc analytics, perform in-depth exploration of data, or create informative, up-to-date dashboards? Then TIBCO Spotfire® is the tool. In this user's guide, you learn what Spotfire is, and how to get the most out of it. You will find what you can do to gain insights about your data, and how to do it in detail, all supplemented with examples that serve as a source of inspiration.
You get informed of how to get the data into the analysis, and how to visualize and interact with it to answer the questions you might have.

The Spotfire user interface assists you in analyzing the data by providing recommendations on visualizations that fit the data you want to display. You can also get assistance in discovering relationships in the data, or how to add new data in good ways. Recommendations and tips are indicated using a light bulb icon.
Your findings can be shared with others in different ways, and you have a lot of options to customize the visual appearance of an analysis.
