Amazon QuickSight
Amazon QuickSight is well suited in any organization that is making business decisions based on performance data whether it be Marketing, Sales, Call Center, etc. It is a great tool especially for mature organizations that have a lot of data to work with. Amazon QuickSight may be not as well suited for newer organizations that are just beginning to drive data/performance metrics. The data available becomes more and more valuable to more that you have.

D3.js
D3.js is great for visualizing with medium and small size datasets. It's also great for prototyping visualizations quickly and sharing on the web so others can view it without having to install any software on their machines

Pros
- Amazon QuickSight is a really easy program to learn how to use.
- Amazon QuickSight allows our team to customize the data using the various data sets, which makes the available reports incredibly powerful to our organization.
- Our organization has the ability continually adjust our reports and build new reports as business needs change.
- Even though our organization has different reports built for different departments, each department can still access and understand reports from across the company.

- It provides multiple ways of visualizing data easily.
- It is fast and light on system resources. It is built with JavaScript and visualizations can be easily hosted on the web across browsers.
- It has a huge community backing it so it is easy to find people to help with whatever you're doing.

Cons
- One of the primary challenges I've had with Amazon QuickSight so far is that some of the reports I want to build use data from different data sets. Instead of being able to put all of the information I want to see into one report.
- Some of our Amazon QuickSight reports only update every 24 hours. It would be great to see that data in real-time.
- I would remove the various time zones from Amazon QuickSight and only use the time zone we are in.

- Has a steep initial learning curve.
- It is slow when dealing with really large datasets.
- Not great for making maps.

Alternatives Considered
All of the other reporting platforms my organization has used previously were within our CRM and not a standalone program. In that we were very limited in being able to slice and dice the data the way that we wanted to

Protoviz does not require as much knowledge of programming to build visualizations as with D3.js or Google Charts. Highcharts or AnyChart are other alternatives that are more specific to building charts only
