Amazon QuickSight vs Zoho Analytics

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.

Zoho Analytics

Good for analyzing data within the Zoho ecosystem, I use it for Zoho Projects however this can be used for the CRM system from Zoho as well. Not perfectly suited for a BI/reporting software that is taking imports from multiple data streams. Reports are not for offline use, which can be problematic based on the physical internet presence

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.

Building relational databases quickly
Drilling down! It's fantastic to be drilling down into data with very little setup.
Custom reports. It's so easy to create custom reports.
The dashboard is the easiest dashboard I've ever used, and the ability to print reports on the dashboard gives me capabilities I've always wanted.

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.

It is very usable for me, but I have had to help others who were less computer savvy figure it out.

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

I'm a certified Access Developer. I prefer Zoho Reports for this kind of work (sales reporting) because it is cloud-based. I can work on a report at my desk, and then when I get into the boardroom present it on the big screen, drill down, etc. The ability to work on it from anywhere is crucial. I prefer Access for more traditional database duties, but that's okay, that's why it's called Zoho Reports and not Zoho Database.

Based on 2 answers

There are many members across my organization that use the QuickSight reports throughout each business day. There are various reports built for various departments as well as reports that cross over to all departments. There have not been any issues across the various departments with viewing the reports and using unique filters to look at the reports differently. Our IT department is the only department within the organization that has the necessary permissions to create new reports and/or make changes to existing reports

Data Integration

Amazon QuickSight7.6

Based on 2 answers

All of the data that feeds into Amazon QuickSight comes from our CRM, Clarity. We do not have data coming in from any other sources. Some of the data that comes in is in real-time and some of the data only updates every 24 hours. Overall, the API feed of data seems to be very seamless and there have not been any hiccups in the feed.

Reports allows for the merging of data from several sources which is really great. However, we have encountered some issues in the functionality of these merges and how the data is further organized. Accessibility is great and it allows us to analyze data from a wide range of sources and functions well as a central hub of information.
