Empowering organizations to gain continuous intelligence from complex, real-time data through market-leading interactive visualization, native data science integration, and superior geospatial capabilities.
High licensing cost, especially for the enterprise/server versions (perpetual licenses are particularly expensive). Some users report performance degradation and slow response times when dealing with very large datasets or complex visualizations (though generally considered scalable). Steep learning curve for advanced features like IronPython scripting and complex data wrangling. The aesthetics and user interface of the desktop client (**Analyst**) are sometimes considered less modern than competitors (e.g., Tableau).
