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.

Data projects have grown rapidly and support complex analytics and quick dashboard delivery
Some things that could be improved in Oracle Analytics Cloud is definitely the way it works. In some cases, for example, if you want to create analytic functions such as the percentage of a measure over another, which is a straightforward question you might ask, it appears simple to do, but the result is not what you expect. I would make it more user-friendly in terms of creating new measures. The measure creation feature could be improved. In terms of functionality, there are not many functions that are completely missing. There is one aspect that if you compare it with Power BI from Microsoft, which works completely in memory and therefore puts everything in memory to allow many calculations on the fly on what is in memory, that is missing, but it is architecturally different and would not be possible to ask for something like that. Some time features and time series analysis functions could be improved. Calculating a year ago and previous period functions could definitely work with some improvement.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. 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 product is easy to learn."
"The query and dashboard capabilities are entirely good."
"It is notably fast in handling large data set refreshes, making it efficient for data analysis."
"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."
"Efficiency has definitely improved, and the speed of developing analytics and insights has increased by at least twenty percent."
"The graph charts, pie charts, and box plots are valuable."
"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."
"Analytics Cloud allows you to merge various data types and structure data from multiple sources."
"The solution is user-friendly."
"A valuable feature is the speed of the solution."
"The scalability is acknowledged as pretty good, although my evaluation is limited because I used the tool for a short period."
"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."
"The AI/ML enablement is useful, as many reporting tools do not offer machine learning models as of now, without writing customized code."
"The technical support services are good."
"It has the best feature for data augmentation."
 

Cons

"There could be an end-to-end pipeline for data cleaning as well as presenting it using different visualizations."
"There should be better connectors for different data sets."
"One area where Amazon QuickSight could improve is its formatting features for dashboards."
"There is room for improvement in terms of the number of visualizations and dashboards that are available."
"One area for improvement is the cost, as it's a bit expensive."
"Lacked connectivity with other third-party tools and data sources."
"I would like to see a feature that allows us to save a draft version before making it public and publishing it."
"The product is quite expensive because the price is too close to QlikView's prices but it does not ring as well as QlikView."
"This solution could be more adaptable in its application."
"When you implement the product on a small scale, it doesn't generate any ROI."
"The product should improve its user interface. It should be welcoming and modern. Developers should also find it easier to build data models. Oracle Analytics Cloud needs to have better visualizations and more options in the marketplace."
"When we have, for example, a table with low performance, we have several issues with drawing some graphics in the Oracle cloud."
"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."
"The price of the solution could be lower."
"Its FAW feature has limitations in terms of usage."
"The scalability has room for improvement."
