We performed a comparison between Amazon QuickSight and MicroStrategy based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two BI (Business Intelligence) Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."From an analytics perspective, it's really good for self-service analytics."
"Easily able to connect with our other services and easy to manage."
"The most valuable feature I have found is the low-level securities are very easy to use."
"It has a lot of valuable features, but the most important aspect is the affordable cost. This solution costs much less in comparison to the competitors like Qlik Sense, Power BI, and Tableau."
"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."
"It helped the managers to visualize the data activities."
"The ease with which it integrates with different data sources is most valuable. Especially when everything is on AWS, it is easy to connect to the data source and organize different dashboards."
"The integration is very seamless. We stored our result CSV files in S3 and connected directly from there."
"It helps all the store managers and supply chain people to obtain a view of the data and plan the next week, the next month, quarters, and so on."
"The technical support is quite good."
"It is a reliable solution for our needs."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to build reports, then customize for different groups instead of having to build multiple reports. Therefore, the ability to build customization in the reports for different groups."
"Dependency on development teams, as well as managing the platform, has reduced a lot with Visual Insight."
"It has landing pages, and that makes life easy for exhibiting things."
"The most important feature is the way it handles ad hoc queries and provides formatted reports."
"Visual Insight gives you the capability of doing self-service analytics. This has been the most powerful and valuable feature."
"I just want a few more features to be added."
"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."
"They could provide more options for graphics and other features."
"You can't tell a data story as well in QuickSight as you can on others, especially in TIBCO Spotfire."
"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."
"It's not ideal for reports that are more complex."
"There could be an end-to-end pipeline for data cleaning as well as presenting it using different visualizations."
"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."
"Native VI on mobile apps and better android support are lacking."
"The pricing could be lower because it is costly."
"The UI seems klutzy with its manual entry."
"They need to improve on distribution services. There are lack of features which were there earlier with Narrowcast, but they are not there in the distribution services."
"When we come to them with a problem, they might know more of a generalized solution, but not one targeted to our industry."
"If there are some advanced visualization features - maybe I'm not aware of them - but if there were a Vitara which could work on top of MicroStrategy, it would make sense for MicroStrategy to have that within their own library. So they should add more visualizations to the library."
"We have the mobile server. We have not used it. That is because the people on our team have not been trained on it yet, but that is something that we want to do."
"There might be opportunities for reporting or data analysis, perhaps even in the realm of simulation."
