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."The integration is very seamless. We stored our result CSV files in S3 and connected directly from there."
"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 I have found is the low-level securities are very easy to use."
"The graph charts, pie charts, and box plots are valuable."
"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."
"The solution is simple to implement."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its flexibility to visualize certain logs."
"It is fine for basic reporting."
"I would say the return on investment is good. Whatever we invested, we got results. We have been finding it easy to use and onboard new use cases."
"It's easy to drill down or expand data to get more details right out of the box."
"The scalability is good."
"ThoughtSpot takes the modifying of existing reports out of our hands."
"It is easy to set up the solution."
"I like ThoughtSpot's search capabilities. You can also create custom analytics even if you aren't an experienced data analyst. We have users with no data analytics experience making some of the dashboards we've created, copying components, and customizing them to their specific use cases."
"The initial setup was very straightforward."
"The ability to do ad hoc explorations of data has been most valuable."
"It's not ideal for reports that are more complex."
"It should support integration with Python or R."
"The solution must be more user-friendly."
"I just want a few more features to be added."
"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."
"One area where Amazon QuickSight could improve is its formatting features for dashboards."
"Lacked connectivity with other third-party tools and data sources."
"Right now, you can't use Amazon QuickSight on other cloud providers, so I'd like it to have availability on other cloud providers. This is an area for improvement in the product. What I'd like to see in Amazon QuickSight in the future is a distributed centralized system where I can manage all reports in one place, and for Amazon QuickSight to become reporting as a service."
"A customized visualization is lacking in this product."
"I would like to see more flexibility in adding the pins. Currently, we have four different sizes in which I can add pins, but I would like to be able to resize my pins."
"The dashboards could give you more ability to fine tune the appearance. You get a great deal more control over how something looks in Power BI than you do in ThoughtSpot."
"The most difficult thing I found is that it only deals with the files and does not have direct connectivity to databases."
"In terms of features, I'd like to be able to pivot data - for example, going from rows to columns. It's not easy to do."
"If I want to order columns, this feature is not there."
"The one area of the solution that I do hear needs improvement is on the visualization front."
"ThoughtSpot is a fairly new product, so some usability aspects aren't as mature as we'd like them to be. One example is their organizational methodology, like how objects are organized in their dashboards inside the product. They're all on a flat list, which works if you've got five or 10 dashboards. However, it's insufficient when you're a large enterprise with multiple groups looking at the same dashboards. It isn't organized well."
