Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I like that with Amazon QuickSight, you don't need to install an app to use its services. With other BI tools, you need to install the app, so Amazon QuickSight is better for me in this area.""The most valuable feature of Amazon QuickSight is its connectivity with other Amazon services.""Easily able to connect with our other services and easy to manage.""The solution's most valuable feature is its flexibility to visualize certain logs.""The ease with which it integrates with different data sources is most valuable. Especially when everything is on AWS, it is easy to connect to the data source and organize different dashboards.""It has a lot of valuable features, but the most important aspect is the affordable cost. This solution costs much less in comparison to the competitors like Qlik Sense, Power BI, and Tableau.""The solution is very quick to turn around and integrate.""One of the most valuable features of Amazon QuickSight has been the speed at which visualizations can be created."

"The initial setup process is easy.""Technical support has always been very good.""In general, it is helpful because it allows administrators to see where the Wi-Fi and network services are being most used.""I like Location Analytics' geofencing features for devices. You can manage thousands of devices with just a push of a button and deploy applications in seconds. For example, in schools, you can deploy an app update for thousands of iPads in just two clicks."

Cons
"There is room for improvement in terms of the number of visualizations and dashboards that are available.""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.""You can't tell a data story as well in QuickSight as you can on others, especially in TIBCO Spotfire.""It is a simple tool with limited features. Its visualization set is very limited, and it also has limited functionality. An intelligence tool should not be only for creating reports. Currently, we have to do all computational and mathematical operations outside. We should be able to do such operations in an intelligence tool like this. As an intelligence tool, it should support dynamic refresh. QuickSight currently supports the refresh at a minimum of one hour, and it is not suitable for dynamic dashboards that require frequent refreshes.""It's not ideal for reports that are more complex.""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.""Amazon QuickSight's visualization could be improved.""The number of features in the product is limited in comparison with the other tools in the market, like Power BI."

More Amazon QuickSight Cons →

"I would like to see all of the features included in a single package.""The pricing is a pain point for us. It's a bit expensive.""The biggest issue is negotiating the price with a client. That's the most complicated part, but the product is worth it.""The technical support before implementation could be better for premium partners."
