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 product is easy to learn."
"The most valuable feature of Amazon QuickSight is its connectivity with other Amazon services."
"Easily able to connect with our other services and easy to manage."
"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."
"From an analytics perspective, it's really good for self-service analytics."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its flexibility to visualize certain logs."
"It helped the managers to visualize the data activities."
"It is notably fast in handling large data set refreshes, making it efficient for data analysis."
"Has a great semantic layer."
"It drives us away from Excel. For what it is for, it is good. You can't run a business on Excel."
"The solution is ideal for enterprise-level companies or corporations."
"The most valuable features are ad hoc reporting and the ability to create dashboards."
"With all the APIs it's very scalable."
"This solution is the most scalable BI platform in the world."
"It is definitely customizable. We have been able to put in key metrics and performance indicators, thus it is customizable."
"MicroStrategy has what they call the Semantic Graph — an enterprise-grade semantic graph — and I think the technology is fantastic."
"Amazon QuickSight's visualization could be improved."
"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."
"You can't tell a data story as well in QuickSight as you can on others, especially in TIBCO Spotfire."
"There is room for improvement in terms of the number of visualizations and dashboards that are available."
"One area is that integrating data from different sources into QuickSight can be a bit tricky, especially with Amazon Connect. To get data flowing, you need to use two additional services and configure them correctly."
"The product has some storage and SPICE data issues."
"There could be an end-to-end pipeline for data cleaning as well as presenting it using different visualizations."
"I would like to see a single standalone application to control everything from the administration perspective, and also to develop new applications."
"We haven't invested in the mobile platform. We want to invest, but the problem is the security. We are in the health domain, so we have PHI data."
"There are some challenges in our organization on how we store the data."
"They should provide more tutorials and include some project files."
"In the developer, there are things that you able to do in a document or a report that you are not able to do in the Dossier."
"Data writeback, and on-the-fly predictive analysis results from R and Python could be improved."
"One of the things that I want to see MicroStrategy do is become more cloud native. Right now, the deployment on cloud is very easy to ruin, it is very much like spinning up separate VMs."
"The implementation itself was pretty straightforward. The tricky part was understanding MicroStrategy's licensing model, which was a bit convoluted back then."
