Amazon QuickSight

It's a completely cloud based solution.

No need to work on maintenance.

Create beautiful meaning dashboards from structured data.

Provide Flexibility with on premises data sources.

Connection reliability.

Extension in features like other competitors.

Easily to set up for data sources, already supports quite a few of AWS and non-AWS data sources

Cost friendly since users are charged only for basis of usage

Still limited options for different type of graphs/charts. If possible with extension or API to customize the visualization would be better

Mainly supports the rendering for large screen device/PC/laptop, not auto layout properly in small mobile device

Lightweight and serverless BI tool that can be used for niche dashboards.

Its integration into other AWS Services is one of its most appealing features.

The low monthly cost is another benefit.

It is still immature as a cloud-based BI tool.

Its functionality is about 40-50% of its competitor's products.

Application is still a little buggy and non-intuitive at times.

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.

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.

Good for creating basic reporting by the business user.

Integration with other data storage services of AWS

You can start getting your business insights immediately no need think of license or setting up infrastructure.

You need to pay as you use so its economical.

Spice space can be shared across all users in the account. SPICE is QuickSight storage where data is stored in an optimized way for fast reporting.

You can not use it as a primary reporting tool as many of the features are missing.

For complex reports for business, users need to get help from an IT person.

Business users time will waste in developing reports, it should have a version where we can promote the report from one environment to other.

Sharing report with the user who is not added in IAM is complex.
