Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""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.""It is fine for basic reporting.""The most valuable feature of this solution is the user interface.""The most valuable feature I have found is the low-level securities are very easy to use.""The query and dashboard capabilities are entirely good.""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."

"The product is responsive, sleek and has a beautiful interface that is pleasant to use. It helps users to easily share code.""Voice Configuration and Environmental Management Capabilities are the most valuable features.""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.""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.""It has a lot of functionality available, supports many libraries, and the developers are continually improving it.""The virtual environment is very good.""It helped us find find the optimal area for where our warehouse should be located."

Cons
"The solution must be more user-friendly.""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.""It's not ideal for reports that are more complex.""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.""It should support integration with Python or R.""I just want a few more features to be added.""Compared to Power BI, I felt QuickSight lacks some features, like delayed drill-downs. Drill-downs were the main area where we found QuickSight lacking.""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."

More Amazon QuickSight Cons →

"One feature that I would like to see is being able to use a different language in a different cell, which would allow me to mix R and Python together.""I think that the framework can be improved to make it easier for people to discover and use things on their own.""It also takes up a lot of space.""The solution would benefit from offering more automation.""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.""When you install Anaconda for the first time, it's really difficult to update it.""A lot of people and companies are investing in creating automated data cleaning and processing environments. Anaconda is a bit behind in that area."
