    In Amazon company we use Quicksight for almost everything. I really love the features quicksight provides. When we download the data, it provides 2 options like CSV and Excel. We choose the type of file we would like to download. Choosing CSV saves space. I really like this feature. Its really easy to implement and the cutomer support is also helpful. It also is easy to integrate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    From implementation standpoint, using the aws quicksight template commands, we can move the same template from a lower environment to a higher one without redoing the whole datasets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    Tableau's better. It's been established for longer, it's more feature-rich, and it's more platform-agnostic. Also, I don't think Amazon is a good company to support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    Unfortunately, QuickSight offers the barest minimum of features compared to industry leaders like Power BI and Tableau. Ability to integrate other data sources is very limited, visualizations are overly simplistic, and interactive usage is very hampered by lack of features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

    Very young and not easy to configure. We spent a lot of time playing with it to get a result that is useful for our data.

    The graphical resources are limited, poor integration (even with Amazon), difficulty to create intelligent reports, the data is not integrated in a fluid way (if you filter in one page, the filter is not applied to other pages), there are few guides and good learning documents to understand how the product works.

    Lots of capabilities so it could get confusing unless you watch like a tutorial online to learn more about it.

    We used Quicksight as part of the reporting tool with other Amazon services like redshift as DWH. It was used in the Analytics team to provide BI solutions to different clients in different industries like insurance, Healthcare, Digital Marketing, etc.
    It's a completely cloud based solution. No need to work on maintenance. Create beautiful meaning dashboards from structured data.

    Amazon QuickSight is used as the sole reporting program for our Call Center, Marketing and Sales teams. It provides performance data for our organization (including Daily/Monthly Sales metrics, Marketing metrics, Call Center stats, etc.). Amazon QuickSight allows for daily real-time monitoring which allows our team to make any necessary adjustments if we see that our numbers are not where we want them to be. Each department has different reports built specifically for them. For example in Marketing I designed reports using the various available data sets that help me effectively lead our Marketing team.
    Amazon QuickSight is a really easy program to learn how to use. Amazon QuickSight allows our team to customize the data using the various data sets, which makes the available reports incredibly powerful to our organization. Our organization has the ability continually adjust our reports and build new reports as business needs change. Even though our organization has different reports built for different departments, each department can still access and understand reports from across the company.

    It is being used as a dashboard to visualize telemetry data from IoT assets as well as threshold crossing for some of the business rules and ML model.
    Easily to set up for data sources, already supports quite a few of AWS and non-AWS data sources Cost friendly since users are charged only for basis of usage

    We are a company which checks the quality of health care provided by a payer. We have top payers as our clients. Right now we are using QuickSight on an experimental basis and only a few of our clients are using it. It has a few pros and cons like for a few basic reports clients don't need to come to us they can generate it by themselves. However, it is not so easy that the average business user does not need developer assistance. In short, we can say it is good but only for the very basic requirements.
    You can not use it as a primary reporting tool as many of the features are missing. For complex reports for business, users need to get help from an IT person. Business users time will waste in developing reports, it should have a version where we can promote the report from one environment to other. Sharing report with the user who is not added in IAM is complex.

    QuickSight is being used as a niche BI tool for several reporting dashboards that we have built. It is currently being used primarily by the central IT organization and we continue to monitor this cloud-based BI tool for it to mature. In the past 3 years, the number of connectors and visualizations has increased and improved and is slowly becoming a better product.
    It is still immature as a cloud-based BI tool. Its functionality is about 40-50% of its competitor's products. Application is still a little buggy and non-intuitive at times.

    It is being used as a dashboard to visualize telemetry data from IoT assets as well as threshold crossing for some of the business rules and ML model.
    Still limited options for different type of graphs/charts. If possible with extension or API to customize the visualization would be better Mainly supports the rendering for large screen device/PC/laptop, not auto layout properly in small mobile device

    We used quicksight to display insights from over 300 million points of data from IoT devices. Overall, it does perform really well with creating attractive dashboards. You are limited with options in terms of visualizations compared to other solutions, however, it does have some out of the box ML options. I wish there was an option to display real time data, but you can only refresh and consume data every 30 minutes which in some cases can be a little late to display info. Value for money is definitely the highest but there is plenty of room for improvement.

    Overall, our team has been very please with what we get with Amazon QuickSight. The support team and our account reps have assisted us every step of the way. Their unique (from our previous solution) pricing structure took a bit of time to quote out, but once the math was done it was clear which solution was best. While we didn't keep as many dashboard author seats as first expected, the time and workload associated with onboarding and implementing was not something that overly taxed our engineers or analysts.

    Ultimately, I'm not enamoured with QuickSight at all. Yes, it is an easy-to-use, highly accessible, AWS-compatible BI product but it feels half-baked with the rest of AWS, and it has some curious approaches, some complexities that are unintuitive, and some other things that make it just that bit more frustrating than it needs to be.
