Can always access reports through intuitive dashboards that support diverse data connections
I can't specifically say how Amazon QuickSight could be improved since I focus more on using it and leveraging its functionalities. However, I could invest additional time to explore possible feedback from customers regarding their challenges. As cloud engineers, our capacity to improve is limited since AWS manages the services, but I would be open to feedback. I'm aware there are minor details that AWS could enhance, such as optimizing costs for beginners or small startups, which can be steep when trying to take Amazon QuickSight into production. Many have noticed that AWS services greatly benefit well-established companies, while startups struggle with costs as they transition data out of AWS. Understanding how AWS charges for Amazon QuickSight usage is critical for all users wanting to visualize their data effectively.

Enhanced analytics through metadata-driven reporting with enterprise-level visualizations enables competitive advantage
In my opinion, what can be better in Oracle Analytics Cloud these days is primarily about pricing. I am from the Czech Republic, which is our main market. The situation here in the Czech Republic is that Power BI rules the world. There are two main reasons for this. First, speaking about the Czech Republic specifically, and second, the Power BI pricing model appears cheaper compared to Oracle Analytics Cloud. The pricing model in Microsoft is more straightforward. With Oracle, you have the data visualization and enterprise lines, and to put it simply, both appear as more expensive options for customers trying to get oriented in the segment.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The integration is very seamless. We stored our result CSV files in S3 and connected directly from there."
"The most valuable feature of Amazon QuickSight is its connectivity with other Amazon services."
"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."
"Amazon QuickSight is a data visualization tool that is a major component in business intelligence to extract insights from the data warehouse, enabling senior managers to have a clear vision about the data, clients, and organization to make major business decisions or strategic decisions about improving the business."
"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 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."
"Amazon QuickSight has an interactive dashboard that is beautiful and user-friendly, with beautiful colors and good icons that are easy to identify, allowing users to click, drag and drop, and extract data without facing complexity or a terminal-based interface."
"It works well with the AWS ecosystem."
"The AI/ML enablement is useful, as many reporting tools do not offer machine learning models as of now, without writing customized code."
"It has the best feature for data augmentation."
"The technical support is excellent, and they respond quickly."
"The specific capability I find important in Oracle Analytics Cloud is that it allows the basic user to easily drag and drop data. I also like that the solution allows the user to decide what to measure and what to see in the reports."
"The product is easily customized."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us. All employees can access it from anywhere. It is a big advantage for us."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"The scalability is acknowledged as pretty good, although my evaluation is limited because I used the tool for a short period."
 

Cons

"The cost of queries is very high."
"The product is quite expensive because the price is too close to QlikView's prices but it does not ring as well as QlikView."
"There should be better connectors for different data sets."
"The setup process falls somewhere in the middle. It is not straightforward, nor is it complex, but there is a significant amount of work needed on the back end to make it function."
"The solution must be more user-friendly."
"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 don't want to say very positive at the moment about the pricing of Amazon QuickSight because my initial understanding is that it's not an easy one to adapt, but the choices are there."
"You can't tell a data story as well in QuickSight as you can on others, especially in TIBCO Spotfire."
"Its machine learning and visualization capabilities can be improved. There should be more visualization options."
"The product could benefit from increased flexibility compared to other vendors."
"They could improve the ease of developing the dashboard and interacting with it."
"This solution could be more adaptable in its application."
"It is less scalable than Snowflake."
"The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"When we have, for example, a table with low performance, we have several issues with drawing some graphics in the Oracle cloud."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product pricing is better than other vendors."
"I rate the price of Amazon QuickSight a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."
"I'm using a paid version of Amazon QuickSight, paying about $22 monthly. As I have yet to learn about the pricing for other tools, such as Power BI, I won't be able to compare."
"The standard edition is free to use for exploration purposes while the enterprise edition needs to be paid for. The pricing for this solution is very reasonable."
"Amazon QuickSight you subscribe and you use the service."
"The solution is not affordable."
"It is simpler and cheaper than other solutions."

"Bottom line, the cost is really, really cheap compared to other solutions. Oracle has made a huge effort on the pricing."
"I would rate it a five out of five in terms of the value received for the price charge."
"We pay on a monthly basis and it is $10 per user each month."
