Metabase provides an easy to use Business Intelligence and Analysis
What do you like best about the product?
I like how I can spin up new, relatively good-looking dashboards in minutes if I know what queries would be required to retrieve the metrics that I want in my Dashboard. Sharing, duplicating, and editing these dashboards is easy as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
For some users, even me sometimes, I struggle with how I should structure my queries. Metabase does not provide any help with that, there is no drag-n-drop or GUI interface to allow novices to interact with the data and generate insights.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As someone who would work on analysing data according to the needs of the other teams in the company, Metabase allows me to quickly generate graphs for important metrics from real-time data. Within the team, whenever anyone needs quick justification for something through data, I use Metabase for that. Beyond that we also use Metabase to generate permanent dashboards that we use monitor import platform-level metrics in the long term.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
More suited for experienced professionals who know how to extract information from data and know the syntax.
Easy to use and manage
What do you like best about the product?
It has helped me to work and manage my data efficiently
What do you dislike about the product?
At the moment, I cannot think of anything that I dislike about it. Maybe Could have better theme but I like the simplicity it has as well
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As mentioned with what I like best
Great free tool if you are a dev or know what to do
What do you like best about the product?
The best part of metabase is that you can do everything yourself and for free, it still requires you to have some technical knowledge (SQL, python) depending on how you store your data
What do you dislike about the product?
You are all alone in it so better know what you need to do before you use this tool, if you are not a dev or don't know how to dev with the data you have, you won't be able to do much as you have to prepare the data to use it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Best free tool to make some good dataviz, it's within reach to everyone with some level of learning curve
Good tool to visualize and keep track of your SQL database - some SQL skills required though!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can integrate Metabase with my SQL database and track, filter, and visualize my own data. This helps me to create dashboards and always keep track! Furthermore, Metabase from a user perspective is fairly easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are two things I particularily do not like about metabase.
1. If you work with a large amount of data, filter views and dashboards tend to load very slowly.
2. If you have no SQL skills at all, it will be hard for you to create custom dashboards and filter views. SQL definitely required!

Metabase helps me to visualize and filter my own data. It is the first tool I open in the morning to check on some major KPIs!

What do you dislike about the product?
Some types of graphics and reports are limited, compared with paid tools from the competition.
Does not work and scale very well with NO SQL databases (like MongoDB), but is very good with SQL databases.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is our primary internal BI platform.
As it is free and very user-friendly we had a fast ROI and didn't need to train the business team on how to use it.
It took some load from our Dev team, as they don't have to build most queries and reports anymore.

Best Tool for Data Analysis and working in Teams
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that Metabase can be downloaded for free as open-source software makes it one of the databases that can be accessed with the least amount of effort, and this feature of Metabase is the one that is the most important. In addition to this, I enjoy that it is compatible with a number of other programming languages, such as SQL and others. This is something else that I find quite useful. Creating SQL scripts and incorporating them into projects is a procedure that may be described as being rather simple. It is always the application that I turn to first since it provides a wide range of different customization options that may be adapted to satisfy a wide variety of work-related requirements.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no possibility to filter the data, and there are severe issues with scalability; whenever I input a massive dataset, the program lags behind much too much. On the other hand, considering that it is a utility that runs on open-source software, this behavior is permissible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was able to make full use of the data visualisation features that it provided, and overall, this application is quite astounding because of how easy it was to use. It proved to be extremely useful for me when I was working in my firm on a wide variety of student data, and I used it.
Great tool to quickly query and analysis
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of setting up. Ease of writing queries and seeing results for quick analysis
What do you dislike about the product?
Unable to join database and add columns for separate analysis.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting actionable insights from database. Different users can view and create their views and dashboards
Great way to pull queries for teams of all sizes
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.
Best platform to visualise, analyse data
What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to use, understand and communicate complicated data.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the dashboard subscription don't give the visuals on the mail
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Analysing data
Metabase Review
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.
