Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""A valuable feature of Amazon QuickSight is that it's a cloud-native service provided by AWS. As all platforms within my company run on AWS, that's the leverage of Amazon QuickSight. Amazon QuickSight is also easy to use, and I find the native connectors from AWS valuable as well.""Easily able to connect with our other services and easy to manage.""The most valuable feature of this solution is the user interface.""From an analytics perspective, it's really good for self-service analytics.""Amazon QuickSight can provide insights from the available data. It supports various rule types. We get the options of machine learning and insights, which are not available in other intelligence tools. It is easier to use, more stable, and cheaper than other solutions.""It is fine for basic reporting.""The integration is very seamless. We stored our result CSV files in S3 and connected directly from there."

"The tool's most valuable feature is its cloud-based nature, allowing accessibility from anywhere. Additionally, using Jupyter Notebook makes it easy to handle bugs and errors.""I can use Anaconda for non-heavy tasks.""The most valuable feature is the set of libraries that are used to support the functionality that we require.""It's interesting. It's user friendly. That's what makes it outstanding among the others. It has a collection of R, Python, and others. Their platform strategy has a collection of many other visualization tools, apart from Spyder and RStudio, which is really helpful for data science. For any data science professional, Anaconda is really handy. It has almost all the tools for data science.""With Anaconda Navigator, we have been able to use multiple IDEs such as JupyterLab, Jupyter Notebook, Spyder, Visual Studio Code, and RStudio in one place. The platform-agnostic package manager, "Conda", makes life easy when it comes to managing and installing packages.""The best part of Anaconda is the media distribution that comes as part of it. It gets us started very quickly.""The notebook feature is an improvement over RStudio.""The most valuable feature is the Jupyter notebook that allows us to write the Python code, compile it on the fly, and then look at the results."

Cons
"I just want a few more features to be added.""I would like to see a feature that allows us to save a draft version before making it public and publishing it.""Amazon QuickSight has minimal features. The feature set can be improved to allow you to create good production-ready dashboards. This does not happen with QuickSite, it needs to mature to be used in production.""Amazon QuickSight's visualization could be improved.""There should be better connectors for different data sets.""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 is a simple tool with limited features. Its visualization set is very limited, and it also has limited functionality. An intelligence tool should not be only for creating reports. Currently, we have to do all computational and mathematical operations outside. We should be able to do such operations in an intelligence tool like this. As an intelligence tool, it should support dynamic refresh. QuickSight currently supports the refresh at a minimum of one hour, and it is not suitable for dynamic dashboards that require frequent refreshes.""There is room for improvement in terms of the number of visualizations and dashboards that are available."

More Amazon QuickSight Cons →

"Anaconda can't handle heavy workloads.""A lot of people and companies are investing in creating automated data cleaning and processing environments. Anaconda is a bit behind in that area.""When you install Anaconda for the first time, it's really difficult to update it.""It crashes once in a while. In case of a reboot or something unexpected, the unseen code part will get diminished, and it relatively takes longer than other applications when a reboot is happening. They can improve in these areas. They can also bring some database software. They have software for analytics and virtualization. However, they don't have any software for the database.""I think better documentation or a step-by-step guide for installation would help, especially for on-premise users.""Anaconda could benefit from improvement in its user interface to make it more attractive and user-friendly. Currently, it's boring.""One thing that hurts the product is that the company is not doing more to advertise it as a solution and make it more well known.""The solution would benefit from offering more automation."
