"What I really love about the software is that I have never struggled in implementing it for complex business requirements. It is good for highly sophisticated and specialized statistics in the areas that some people tend to call artificial intelligence. It is used for everything that involves visual presentation and analysis of highly sophisticated statistics for forecasting and other purposes."

"One area where Amazon QuickSight could improve is its formatting features for dashboards."
"They could provide more options for graphics and other features."

"Lacked connectivity with other third-party tools and data sources."
"There is room for improvement in anti-money laundering prevention and operation monitoring, as well as operation monitoring surveillance."

"The licensing ends up being more expensive than other options."

"There are scalability issues. It depends on the data volume and number of end-users. VA requires a lot of hardware resources to move volumes of data."

Small and mid-sized companies would struggle with it because they prefer something standard that has been predefined by somebody else."
