Easily create dashboards for your teams

  • July 06, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

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.

Powerful Usability but LOW computing power

  • June 29, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is super easy to share with team members both on queries and also findings in real-time. It came super handy to check live stats with the whole organization and empower non-data folks. It also offers cool visualizations options to show results, which can serve as a nice reporting function. The Dashboard organization functionality is also helpful to keep things organized.
What do you dislike about the product?
The LOW computing power. For large/complicated queries, sometimes it will never come back. The most annoying part is that the message on screen is 'Doing Science', while that screen could run in HOURS and then popped up an error message. This part is a huge limitation to its usage.
Also, the query writing/drafting isn't good - it can't fold subquery or highlight indexing like other tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
BI reporting, Data Enablement.
Team collaborations, Visualizations

The DIY Free BI tool for teams.

  • April 21, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Metabase is free to use BI tool which is easy to setup. It has a drag and drop interface as well as a SQl writer where queries can be written for advanced users. Access can be given across teams along with specific permissions. The tools is highly recommended for startups since it is free to use and self deployable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although we are using a free to use self deployed version, There is less of data visualization thus it makes users to use separate tools to create visualization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Metabase allows us to decentralize reporting by creating relevant questions and giving access to various teams based on their needs.
The key benefits is teams can see and download relevant data for reviews by their own without depending on engineering or business analysts.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Metabase is a free and easy to use self deployable BI software specially recommended for startup to give ease of data access to their team. It allows both tech and non-tech users to access data and report through a SQL editor and drag and drop interface. Recommended for startups looking to build a data driven culture.

great data visualization tools

  • November 22, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
* easy to visualize data and view in different formats (ie. graphs, pie charts, tables, etc.)
* heavily customizable
* good UI, easy to navigate
* affordable/cheaper than salesforce, SAP Tableau, etc.
* easy one step log-in (using work gmail account)
What do you dislike about the product?
* dashboard suggestions are not helpful
* need to have certain graphics/analytics bookmarked individually instead of customizing by user interest
* tutorial for non-data personnel would be helpful
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
* tracking company key metrics and growth
* visual information
* able to look at real time statistics/#s for WoW, MoM
* tracking annualized projections
* variety of ways to analyze/view data
Recommendations to others considering the product:
it's a great, bare-bones, affordable tool. gives you what you need if it's just looking at company metrics, but you need to be able to ask the right questions/define the issue. our data analyst does a lot to make the information easily digestible across the company - had heaps of info in the past and it wasn't that well organized. visualization helps a lot across the organization.

Great to make queues and workflows

Updates to stats are delayed and even slow to load.

It allows us an external tool for easier outreach and tracking

Not a fan of the UX

  • August 15, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that it's more secure for my company and deployable from the cloud.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not intuitive at all, there's not a simple button where you can just run a query it takes multiple clicks. The output is definitely not as nice as Navicat, even figuring out how to download the csv file isn't intuitive. I also don't like that the process to save/edit queries is so tedious. I also really really dislike that to reference the different tables in our database is in a whole different iteration. In our Navicat tool queries/tables were in different tabs so it was easy to cross-reference the data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data security for our database.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I guess if you're not used to another product it's fine, but I prefer our old tool much more.

Falls short, pretty frustrating

  • March 28, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The queries are all online, so I can access them from anywhere without having to have a specific software on my computer. I can run queries from basically anywhere as long as I have my log-in info. I also like the auto-fill feature when typing queries since our data is quite large and we have a LOT of tables and columns.
What do you dislike about the product?
A lot of things. The fact that it's in the browser means I can't easily switch between queries like I could in a desktop program. It's also kind of pain to make edits and save changes, and because it's in the browser I don't have all the keyboard shortcuts I'd have with a desktop program. What's more, you're unable to have more than one table in one query, so I had to split all of my queries up and now I have to switch between them frequently, meaning I generally have a dozen Metabase tabs open. We were also hoping that having everything online would mean that we could share queries easily between team members, but that also doesn't seem to be the case.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SQL queries and data mining. We have access to all of our tables in one place, and we're able to run queries in an online setting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Save all your queries remotely so they're easy to access. I also recommend making a bookmark for each query you use frequently since trying to access them back and forth on the platform is annoying. Also CTRL-ENTER replaces CRTL-R as run query.
