Intuitive and highly functional solution. We've liked that non-technical users can ask 'questions' and filter data in an Excel-like way and that it's easy to write SQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have been using Metabase for about months now and we do not currently have any dislikes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Better understanding of product usage via dashboards, internal metrics sharing throughout organization, pre-empting any customer-facing issues
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Metabase was simple to implement (a few hours of time) and has provided us with immense business value. We continue to find more uses for it on a daily basis. If looking for BI tool that is quick to setup and approachable to users who are familiar with SQL and/or Excel - highly recommend Metabase.

Metabas was easy to set up and configure and even easier to utilize and build Questions and Queries as it pertained to immediate data needs.

Not many negative things to say about the platform - it solved an immediate need for data analytics for our business users without any technical resources allocated to achieving the solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Business users, and users who have familiarity with SQL, can query company data to understand product performance, etc., in a much more accessible manner, without any or too much reliance on data/engineering teams' involvement.

Excellent BI solution, with great UX and awesome community
What do you like best about the product?
It has a great UX and is very straightforward to use, and advanced users can easily drop into SQL if needed.

That not many people know about it, so whenever I bring it to a new company there is some resistance from folks that prefer other brands that invest more in marketing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating plots, tables and dashboards with SQL to share data visualizations with my team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out, as the onboarding setup is a breeze. It even runs on Heroku, which is great for a small company/department.
Here we run it on a more elaborate setup with App Engine Flex, as over 100 people are using it.

Open source, super powerful data visualisation tool
What do you like best about the product?
It is free. Functionality is very powerful, supports almost all data sources you would like to connect to it. Bugs are getting fixed quickly, a lot of updates with new functionality. Really love their answers section.
What do you dislike about the product?
Canvas for dashboards is limited. Can't blend data coming from different data sources. In case if data is stored in a different database you first need to pre-process it in some sort of DWH before getting connected to Metabase.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The "Answers" feature is super nice allowing users to create and store data queries "answering" some specific questions. You can also re-use saved answers in dashboards later.
Alert to Slack is also very helpful. Allowing you immediately (once an hour) to get an update once there is a potential problem with data.

What do you dislike about the product?
1. The GUI tool is very basic/ minimal. This restricts its use to only technically sound users i.e. those with SQL coding knowledge.
2. Implementing newer versions is difficult :( It breaks a few of the existing functionalities.
3. The drag-drop experience of elements in dashboard view can be better.

Goto tool for dashboard and analysis
What do you like best about the product?
It's one of the easy to use tool for making a dashboard. Writing SQL queries in it is very easy and also it's very fast which makes the analysis fast.
The dashboard can be modified in to various forms like table or any chart. It has multiple options to modify the chart and thus serves the purpose of visualisation tool as well. It's easy to connect with different databases and query to get the output. It also tracks the edition history which really helps in keeping the track of the creator of dashboards and the details of modification done. Also it serves the purpose of visualisation tool for easy tracking of various KPIs.

What do you dislike about the product?
Servers are sometimes not very responsive and lacks some chart visualisation tools. If these Things are modified and implemented this would really make it the best tool for dashboards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With the help of metabase we've really solved the day to day problems of ecommerce and it has helped us in tracking the daily numbers of the business. This has helped a alot in making various business decisions and also serves the purpose of communicating with various teammates by sharing the dashboard with them. It has helped in improving the skills and made analysis easier and with it's intuitive user interface anyone can make a dashboard of their requirements very easily and in less time.
Easily create dashboards for your teams
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best is that Metabase is a free yet powerful solution to build dashboards that the teams within a company can get insights from. And if you have a team that is curious about data and want to create their own dashboards and learn about the business asking their own questions you can allow them to do that in and simple way.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I don't like is that sometimes it takes more time than I expected to show or refresh the data. It might be because of the amount of data we have but this is something that bothers me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed something to empower the teams with data and Metabase helped us with that. The main benefit for the company was that all teams could easily access information about the business without needing to ask the data team all the time.
