Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is very quick to turn around and integrate."
"Amazon QuickSight can provide insights from the available data. It supports various rule types. We get the options of machine learning and insights, which are not available in other intelligence tools. It is easier to use, more stable, and cheaper than other solutions."
"Compared to other reporting tools, it is very effective but does require an understanding of certain concepts in QuickSight. This understanding is crucial for creating dimensions, changing metrics, and visualizing reports."
"The integration is very seamless. We stored our result CSV files in S3 and connected directly from there."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the user interface."
"A valuable feature of Amazon QuickSight is that it's a cloud-native service provided by AWS. As all platforms within my company run on AWS, that's the leverage of Amazon QuickSight. Amazon QuickSight is also easy to use, and I find the native connectors from AWS valuable as well."
"Amazon QuickSight has introduced a new functionality called Q bar, which allows the user to do natural language queries and get additional insights using some built-in generative capabilities."
"The solution is simple to implement."
"The convenience of it. Having it on the mobile, so someone has it right there in their pocket most of the time."
"It plays a vital role in establishing a connection with predictive continuous improvement."
"With all the APIs it's very scalable."
"It has had a direct impact on bottomline improvements."
"I really like the visualizations. I like how you can put large data sets in there, then the user can quickly go through the data and drill down at various levels to understand things."
"The solution has excellent features available on mobile."
"Getting more data to people more quickly. Providing more flexibility for how they use the data."
"We have been using it mostly for grid reports and its exporting features."
"The number of features in the product is limited in comparison with the other tools in the market, like Power BI."
"It should support integration with Python or R."
"The product is quite expensive because the price is too close to QlikView's prices but it does not ring as well as QlikView."
"Right now, you can't use Amazon QuickSight on other cloud providers, so I'd like it to have availability on other cloud providers. This is an area for improvement in the product. What I'd like to see in Amazon QuickSight in the future is a distributed centralized system where I can manage all reports in one place, and for Amazon QuickSight to become reporting as a service."
"Amazon QuickSight has minimal features. The feature set can be improved to allow you to create good production-ready dashboards. This does not happen with QuickSite, it needs to mature to be used in production."
"One area where Amazon QuickSight could improve is its formatting features for dashboards."
"An area for improvement in Amazon QuickSight is storage. Data cleanup also needs improvement because I'm experiencing errors when cleaning the data. Amazon QuickSight needs video tutorials showing its different functions and purposes."
"I just want a few more features to be added."
"Data writeback, and on-the-fly predictive analysis results from R and Python could be improved."
"We have seen some stability issues with MicroStrategy on cloud. We have a few unhappy customers."
"I would try to make it a little more basic, user-friendly. In terms of the UX, it's a bit sluggish there."
"It would be good if it had greater analytics so we could build these visualizations by ourselves with scripts."
"Data preparation-wise, it was not so straightforward with respect to getting different sources. Preparing or transforming the data inside and then bringing it onto the dashboard was a bit difficult, and the experience could have been better."
"The problem is the way that their metrics are designed. It can be difficult to understand what you're actually looking at. Then when you're comparing a document against the VI, you can't actually do that properly. So there are components, and there is a huge learning curve in the Enterprise Manager space. I think it would benefit them greatly if they were to exercise a significant amount of research and development in that space."
"When we come to them with a problem, they might know more of a generalized solution, but not one targeted to our industry."
"I would like to see more integration."
