Pros
"The product is easy to learn.""It is fine for basic reporting.""Amazon QuickSight has introduced a new functionality called Q bar, which allows the user to do natural language queries and get additional insights using some built-in generative capabilities.""The most valuable feature of this solution is the user interface.""The solution is simple to implement.""The solution is very quick to turn around and integrate.""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.""It helped the managers to visualize the data activities."

More Amazon QuickSight Pros →

"Technical support has always been very good.""The initial setup process is easy.""I like Location Analytics' geofencing features for devices. You can manage thousands of devices with just a push of a button and deploy applications in seconds. For example, in schools, you can deploy an app update for thousands of iPads in just two clicks.""In general, it is helpful because it allows administrators to see where the Wi-Fi and network services are being most used."

Cons
"Amazon QuickSight's visualization could be improved.""I just want a few more features to be added.""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 should support integration with Python or R.""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.""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."

More Amazon QuickSight Cons →

"I would like to see all of the features included in a single package.""The biggest issue is negotiating the price with a client. That's the most complicated part, but the product is worth it.""The technical support before implementation could be better for premium partners.""The pricing is a pain point for us. It's a bit expensive."
