After one month of struggle, I lost confidence on Spotfire, it's totally
not user-friendly. Yes it is very good for certain data presentation, but
you still need do heavy lifting on data processing by other software. For
me, R is the perfect tool and has best user supporting group. I send this

Thanks for your note Uwe. Yes I think a lot of the needed work was related
to implementing R functions that many of us use that are not available in
S-Plus, plus what to do about plotmath. It wasn't enough to just be able to
load the R package. I don't think implementation of the needed R
John,
Spotfire is a menu driven data exploration tool, very popular here
with biologists who found that their previous Excel based approach
doesn't cut it for large data sets. When TIBCO wanted to expand the
tool with further quantitative features they made (I think) a bright
decision to

Dear R users,
I have been using R for 10 years, and I love it very much. But in my daily
job for drug discovery, some people use Spotfire. I tried Spotfire on
couple of data sets. It sounds I still need do some data manipulation
before plot figures. For example, I can not plot figure with data

I am struggling whether I should learn Spotfire or not. I just want some
statisticians inputs.

1. I agree with Duncan: wrong list.
2. AFAIK, Spotfire **already** can interface with R.

Roughly 5 years ago, a Spotfire rep at the Joint Statistical Meetings
told me they routinely interfaced with both R and S-Plus. I'm not 100%
certain, but I believe they have many customers who use that facility
