TIBCO has a lot of Analytics and Data products. One of their acquisitions, called Spotfire, is actually a really good product.

Over the last few years they've also acquired a lot of Data Science companies, but it always felt like they were bargain shopping and acquiring companies nobody else wanted to buy.

Honestly, I pity Spotfire. IME it's the best out of all the products in that space (e.g. Tableau, PowerBI, etc) and is much better for actually Analyzing data in comparison to other products it competes with. But they got acquired by TIBCO, who basically did a great job of losing the mindshare race against Tableau. I feel like some other company would have done a better job with Spotfire.
