Great way to pull queries for teams of all sizes

  • May 09, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Nothing is hidden in Metabase. Simple organization with worksheets and even easier ways to house architecture. Love that I can pull up a fresh sheet and start plugging away with SQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the large number of databases make it confusing. This could be improved by giving an option to see extra details about any given database upon mouse hover in the case of complex organizations with many databases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've been able to democratize pulling data across teams instead of relying on a single department to do this for everyone else.

Metabase Review

  • April 01, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Metabase is a wonderful tool because it is really easy to use. If you don't have any relationship with data and SQL queries, it is still really easy to understand the user interface of Metabase and search for your data. You can easily deal with Big Data without complex queries.
What do you dislike about the product?
Actually, I don't have any negative thoughts about Metabase it is really good for us and our job. But sometimes the support team is a bit slow, I mean they reply to your questions but not at the current time. But in general, it is a great tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Metabase for data access and availability of data. We connect it to the different sources and in that way, we can use it from google sheets, tableau or from it's own interface. It makes our job really great.

Great data visualization tool for those with SQL knowledge

  • October 14, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
1. Very customizable and powerful for dealing with large data sets.
2. Variety of visualization methods (charts, graphs, tables etc)
3. Especially useful for product managers and technical leader
4. Able to provide dynamically updated data, schedule alerts when particular metrics are breached
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.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. Tracking key product metrics
2. Slicing and dicing data to find useful product usage insights.
3. Keep an eye on company level metrics
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its a very powerful tool. You only need to overcome the initial hassle of setting it up according to your organizational needs.

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.

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.
