Can always access reports through intuitive dashboards that support diverse data connections
I can't specifically say how Amazon QuickSight could be improved since I focus more on using it and leveraging its functionalities. However, I could invest additional time to explore possible feedback from customers regarding their challenges. As cloud engineers, our capacity to improve is limited since AWS manages the services, but I would be open to feedback. I'm aware there are minor details that AWS could enhance, such as optimizing costs for beginners or small startups, which can be steep when trying to take Amazon QuickSight into production. Many have noticed that AWS services greatly benefit well-established companies, while startups struggle with costs as they transition data out of AWS. Understanding how AWS charges for Amazon QuickSight usage is critical for all users wanting to visualize their data effectively.

Custom cohort dashboards have transformed customer tracking but still need richer built‑in visuals
From my perspective, adding more custom visualizations as inbuilt features would be greatly beneficial for developers and other teams. For specific visualizations, we currently need to use Python and JavaScript combinations to create great visualizations such as cohort analysis. If these visualizations were added by default to Mode Enterprise, it would be beneficial for all of us. There are common visualizations that are not currently in Mode Enterprise but should be added. There are advantages and disadvantages to the current state. The advantages mainly include the ability to combine all datasets, which definitely reduces time. Because Python and JavaScript are supported, we can develop cohort dashboards, which many other BI tools do not support. Mode Enterprise supports cohort dashboards, which is a significant advantage.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Easily able to connect with our other services and easy to manage."
"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."
"The graph charts, pie charts, and box plots are valuable."
"The query and dashboard capabilities are entirely good."
"It is notably fast in handling large data set refreshes, making it efficient for data analysis."
"Amazon QuickSight is a data visualization tool that is a major component in business intelligence to extract insights from the data warehouse, enabling senior managers to have a clear vision about the data, clients, and organization to make major business decisions or strategic decisions about improving the business."
"The integration is very seamless. We stored our result CSV files in S3 and connected directly from there."
"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 tool helps to catch results and review them."
"The most valuable feature I would say is the flexibility in editing."
"I have used many other BI tools, but when I compare other BI tools with Mode Enterprise, I find it more interesting because it supports Amazon Redshift and cloud-related technology as well as some static-related technology, and it also supports customization through coding with JavaScript and Python."
"Mode Enterprise positively impacted my organization with its clean visualization and slightly faster response times."
"The solution is simple for people from a viewing perspective, not a coding perspective."
"The most important feature of the solution is the ability to run Python-based scripts."
 

Cons

"It's not ideal for reports that are more complex."
"One area for improvement is the cost, as it's a bit expensive."
"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."
"There could be an end-to-end pipeline for data cleaning as well as presenting it using different visualizations."
"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."
"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."
"An area for improvement in Amazon QuickSight is storage. Data cleanup also needs improvement because I'm experiencing errors when cleaning the data. Amazon QuickSight needs video tutorials showing its different functions and purposes."
"It should support integration with Python or R."
"From my perspective, adding more custom visualizations as inbuilt features would be greatly beneficial for developers and other teams."
"I think in terms of User Interface, I would say it can be better."
"Mode Analytics needs to improve the overall user experience."
"The data visualization is cumbersome in Mode Analytics. I want the solution to add a map that has an easy interface. The UI is slow sometimes."
"Mode Enterprise can be improved by reducing the cost, as I think the enterprise version is much costlier."
"The solution could run faster."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The Amazon QuickSight licensing model my company's on is pay-as-you-go, but I wouldn't be able to give the figures because that's handled by the finance department."
"I wouldn't say that it is an expensive product, but to stay competitive they would need to bring down the prices."
"Amazon QuickSight charges $250 per user, which becomes expensive when managing multiple departments."
"The pricing is cost-effective with a good plan."
"I'm using a paid version of Amazon QuickSight, paying about $22 monthly. As I have yet to learn about the pricing for other tools, such as Power BI, I won't be able to compare."
"The solution is not affordable."
"The product pricing is better than other vendors."
"It is simpler and cheaper than other solutions."
"My decision-maker found the pricing expensive, but it is okay for me."
"The pricing is per user."
"Mode Analytics is cheap compared to other tools."
