We performed a comparison between Amazon QuickSight and SAS Visual Analytics 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."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 most valuable feature of this solution is the user interface."
"The most valuable feature of Amazon QuickSight is its connectivity with other Amazon services."
"It is notably fast in handling large data set refreshes, making it efficient for data analysis."
"The graph charts, pie charts, and box plots are valuable."
"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."
"The product is easy to learn."
"From an analytics perspective, it's really good for self-service analytics."
"It's quite easy to learn and to progress with SAS from an end-user perspective."
"The most solution's notable aspect, in my view, is the ability to integrate various data sources and harness advanced technologies such as machine learning and artificial intelligence. This helps with quality assurance processes."
"It's relatively simple to create basic dashboards and reports."
"Visual Analytics is very easy to use. I use Visual Analytics for all the typical use cases except text mining. I used it to analyze data and monitor statistics, not text mining. I also use it for data visualization as well as creating interactive dashboards and infographics."
"The flexibility of the configuration is valuable to me."
"It integrates well with SAS, making it simple and quick for developers."
"The technical support services are good."
"It's a stable, reliable product."
"There is room for improvement in terms of the number of visualizations and dashboards that are available."
"I would like to see a feature that allows us to save a draft version before making it public and publishing it."
"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 can be made more user-friendly as some users might find this solution hard to implement. Qlik Sense, for example, is very user-friendly."
"You can't tell a data story as well in QuickSight as you can on others, especially in TIBCO Spotfire."
"The product is quite expensive because the price is too close to QlikView's prices but it does not ring as well as QlikView."
"There should be better connectors for different data sets."
"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."
"I haven't come across any missing features."
"SAS Visual Analytics could improve by making it more accessible for users outside the organization."
"A bit more flexibility in the temperatization will be helpful."
"The visualization should be better in SAS Visual Analytics. It is easy to use but when compared to other solutions it is lacking and the support is not very good."
"The solution should improve its graphics."
"The reason we haven't rolled it out across the board is due to the fact that the licensing is so expensive."
"The charts and tables could use better sorting, primarily using other variables than the ones on the figure. If they could implement views like in the older version (previous to Viya), it would be very nice."
"Colours used on report objects"
