"It offers integration with several Microsoft products, including SharePoint and Outlook, in my opinion, is a huge plus."
"The visualization of the data pages could be improved. You have to a lot of tweaking to make the visualization stand out. It's basic, but there are a lot of options.

It would be helpful if you could start with something that's already built rather than working on standard templates from scratch."

"The notion people have is that no code equals no knowledge, and that's simply not true. Even though you don't have to write codes, you still have to know what you're doing."

"When we talk of integrating with external applications, that's one area where, even today, I had to loop in my code developers. If this area can be streamlined so that my techno-functional consultants, who are on-site, can immediately start working on something without the assistance of developers, that would be ideal."
"It has to improve the threshold limit where it can handle data beyond 5000 items."
