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

"From an analytics perspective, it's really good for self-service analytics."
"The product is easy to learn."
"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."
"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 graph charts, pie charts, and box plots are valuable."
"The solution is simple to implement."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of Amazon QuickSight is its connectivity with other Amazon services."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"The advanced calculations by the tool are highly effective"
"The ability to quickly search for and access relevant data is crucial."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is not very user-friendly, however, it is robust and capable of performing a wide range of tasks."
"It's really an enterprise solution. It has a dashboard, like standard dashboarding functionality. It also has reporting capabilities for producing pixel-perfect reports, bursting large volumes of a document if you need to. It has interactive data discovery functionality, which you would use to explore your data, bring your own data, and merge it with maybe the data from an enterprise data warehouse to get new insights from the pre-existing data. It has machine learning embedded in the solution. If you're new to machine learning, it's a really good way to get into it, because it's all within this platform, and it's really easy to use."
"The product is able to compare with other tools on the market; it has everything you need, everything you can find in other tools such as Tableau and Power BI, and additionally, it has history, so you get a robust solution with support."
"It's robust. It has the ability to handle massive amounts. After reporting has been developed, there is an ease of use or a user-friendly interface for a trained workforce."
"The technical support is excellent, and they respond quickly."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in terms of the number of visualizations and dashboards that are available."
"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."
"The cost of queries is very high."
"I would like to see a feature that allows us to save a draft version before making it public and publishing it."
"It's not ideal for reports that are more complex."
"The solution must be more user-friendly."
"There could be an end-to-end pipeline for data cleaning as well as presenting it using different visualizations."
"This solution could be more adaptable in its application."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."
"Its FAW feature has limitations in terms of usage."
"As with most BI tools, the visualizations can be made much nicer. Currently, it has standard visualizations. They've been adding new visualizations, but we see animated visualizations from other vendors. It would be nice to have similar visualizations, such as the swarming visualizations, which are fairly new and very popular at the moment. I haven't seen that with Oracle. That would be nice."
"It should simplify data connectivity and modeling, making data extraction more streamlined and adaptable for diverse use cases."
"The solution could be more flexible."
"The product could benefit from increased flexibility compared to other vendors."
"The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"It's affordable compared to other long-term contractor business tools available in the market."
"A highly affordable cost structure with fixed membership and timeframe basis options."
"The pricing is cost-effective with a good plan."
"The solution is not affordable."
"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."
"The solution's pricing is cheaper than the other products in the market."
"The product pricing is better than other vendors."
"A highly cost-effective solution"
"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."

"It is an expensive platform."
"I would rate it a five out of five in terms of the value received for the price charge."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud's pricing is generally higher than that of other vendors."
"I don't know the exact cost, but its pricing was good. Its pricing was competitive. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing."
