We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is fine for basic reporting.""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.""The integration is very seamless. We stored our result CSV files in S3 and connected directly from there.""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.""The solution is very quick to turn around and integrate.""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 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 is notably fast in handling large data set refreshes, making it efficient for data analysis."

"We have found the scalability to be very good.""The fact that the solution is visually appealing because of its lightning interfaces can be considered one of its most valuable features""The most valuable feature of Salesforce Einstein Analytics is the reporting tools.""The most valuable features of Salesforce Einstein Analytics are the flexibility around the deployment, overall capabilities, user-friendliness, and interactiveness with the tools that came built with it.""The solution scales extremely well.""The out-of-the-box features are good for companies that want to try analytics and data science interventions.""It is a comprehensive solution. It has everything in it. I can easily find what I need.""The tool is valuable. It's one of the greatest programs I'm currently working with, and I believe it will continue to be crucial in the next four to five years. It's the future of our operations. Integrating other systems and conducting campaigns is easy. The solution relies heavily on AI."

Cons
"I would like to see a feature that allows us to save a draft version before making it public and publishing it.""There should be better connectors for different data sets.""I just want a few more features to be added.""You can't tell a data story as well in QuickSight as you can on others, especially in TIBCO Spotfire.""Amazon QuickSight's visualization could be improved.""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.""It can be made more user-friendly as some users might find this solution hard to implement. Qlik Sense, for example, is very user-friendly.""One area where Amazon QuickSight could improve is its formatting features for dashboards."

More Amazon QuickSight Cons →

"They have a lot of opportunity to improve BI tools. With Einstein Analytics, we have a very minimal scope.""The product is natively integrated into the Salesforce ecosystem. You also need a CRM license. It should be more flexible with other platforms.""When it comes to generating reports, it appears that many users rely on experts to handle technical aspects. For instance, if you require a weekly report displaying accounts transitioning in and out of your modules, it seems challenging to accomplish without consulting experts for assistance. Such tasks should be user-friendly and easily achievable without external assistance.""The price of Salesforce Einstein Analytics is quite a bit expensive for the region of Mexico. I think the price of the product could be better.""I would advise others not to customize because they rolled out the newer versions, which are every six months. There had to be some significant testing and verification that happened. It is important to have a strong third-party provider that is very experienced. We used Deloitte, but we evaluated Accenture, KPMG, and IBM, but we decided on Deloitte and that was a good decision for us. Having a partner who has a center of excellence or experts that could give you a lot of the tips that they've learned could jumpstart your deployment and stick to the standards.""If I could improve Tableau CRM I would make it as powerful as Tableau. Tableau CRM is more integrated and it's on the web, but it has less functionality. It is lacking functionality at this time.""The product is expensive.""The product must be more transparent."
