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

"Interactive dashboards do help with data analysis."
"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."
"The query and dashboard capabilities are entirely good."
"The graph charts, pie charts, and box plots are valuable."
"One of the most valuable features of Amazon QuickSight has been the speed at which visualizations can be created."
"There is no REVIEW content provided to evaluate."
"The solution is very quick to turn around and integrate."
"From an analytics perspective, it's really good for self-service analytics."
"The solution can scale."
"The technical support services are good."
"Data preparation is fantastic and fast. We were able to use multiple data sources and prepare the data quickly."
"The product is easily customized."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"The scalability is acknowledged as pretty good, although my evaluation is limited because I used the tool for a short period."
"I've discovered that the new layout of this product makes Docker sharing, machine learning support, and data backups more efficient. Unlike the older method of linking physical, pre-logical, and presentation layers separately, the new interface simplifies this process. Additionally, the integration of databases and machine learning is seamless, with the new visualization approach being particularly beautiful and highly beneficial."
"Mobility is the most valuable feature for us. All employees can access it from anywhere. It is a big advantage for us."
 

Cons

"There should be better connectors for different data sets."
"QuickSight needs to add more visuals similar to what Power BI offers."
"They could provide more options for graphics and other features."
"I just want a few more features to be added."
"AWS services greatly benefit well-established companies, while startups struggle with costs as they transition data out of AWS."
"The number of features in the product is limited in comparison with the other tools in the market, like Power BI."
"There could be an end-to-end pipeline for data cleaning as well as presenting it using different visualizations."
"Amazon QuickSight's visualization could be improved."
"Oracle Analytics Cloud is lacking in charts. They should add more charts to it."
"One area of improvement is associated with more connectors needing to be added such as Microsoft OneDrive, Teradata and a few others. I think the list is limited to the top ones now."
"Sharing dataflows is not possible at this time, and the custom chart functionality is not available."
"The migration of older dash tools from the classic interface of Oracle BI prior to OAS launch to the newer Data Visualization and Oracle Analytics Cloud interfaces, including dashboards and metadata, is currently a cumbersome process. Improvements in this area would be highly beneficial. Additionally, the administration of the cloud, particularly the startup of services and linking of the WebLogic server and integrated components, takes longer than desired. In today's enterprise landscape, waiting forty minutes for the server to be operational is quite lengthy; ideally, this process should take a maximum of four minutes. It would be excellent to incorporate metadata management as an integral part of the Oracle Analytics Cloud. When dealing with integrated data from various sources, tracking data lineage and the entire data life cycle, from sources to report development and the mapping of reports to specific dashboards, should be seamlessly managed within the Oracle Analytics Cloud. This would eliminate the need for additional tools. Drawing a comparison, tools like Tableau have a feature enabling metadata management, making it easier to trace the complete data lineage of reports. Managing over seven hundred and thirty-six business dashboards, the metadata management capability within Tableau simplified the process of understanding how reports were developed, including details like associated tables, users, linked views, materialized views, data segmentations, ETL jobs, and the data warehouse stages. Enhancing metadata tracking within the Oracle Analytics Cloud layout would facilitate easy and practical management of the complete data life cycle, encompassing user accessibility and report permissions."
"It is expensive."
"The product should be improved in terms of connectors; right now the top twenty connectors are available, but OneDrive and Teradata are missing."
"One of the major issues is that Oracle Analytics Cloud is not user-friendly, requiring skilled people with proper certifications to work with it successfully."
"At this time, dataflows cannot be shared, but I think that this should be enhanced."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Amazon QuickSight you subscribe and you use the service."
"The Amazon QuickSight licensing model my company's on is pay-as-you-go, but I wouldn't be able to give the figures because that's handled by the finance department."
"The solution's pricing is cheaper than the other products in the market."
"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."
"It's affordable compared to other long-term contractor business tools available in the market."
"The product pricing is better than other vendors."
"It is simpler and cheaper than other solutions."
"I wouldn't say that it is an expensive product, but to stay competitive they would need to bring down the prices."
"The product’s pricing is expensive. However, feature-wise, it fits the requirements of enterprise customers."
"Bottom line, the cost is really, really cheap compared to other solutions. Oracle has made a huge effort on the pricing."
"The tool's pricing is not unreasonable or non-competitive."
"We pay on a monthly basis and it is $10 per user each month."
"I rate the product's pricing a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"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."
"It is an expensive platform."
