This open source BI tool isn’t (yet) included in our study because vendors have to cooperate, and SpagoBI didn’t respond to our questionnaire. As a basic report writer, the product is adequate, but if you are looking for something more it is not (yet) available in Jaspersoft. Good BI tools help us predict the future and this (advanced analytics) is something that is currently not included in the product. Jaspersoft has improved considerably in the usability category, but still has some work to do to compete with the top products. As a strength, Pentaho have a complete product offering (their data integration product is evaluated in our ETL & Data Integration Guide), as a weakness we don’t yet see much predictive analysis and no performance management facilities. Currently they don’t have many large implementations. They score relatively well in the categories of usability, performance and security, which is essential for expanding their market share. More information about the maturity and implementation of open source BI can be found in the BI & Analytics Guide, an in-depth comparison tool including the following open source BI tools: If you combine the “good enough” factor with an attractive price point and the support delivered by the vendors, some open source BI tools are certainly worth considering.
