BI and customer analytics
Great tool for business analytics & reporting
What do you like best about the product?
I used the free app to connect to our SQL database and produce some reports that were a real insight into certain aspects of the business. It was intuitive for a user with minor technical ability to produce some basic queries and present the data in visually pleasing charts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the data would not present in the manner I wanted, e.g. inverted axis, or trying to build more complex queries and join database tables took a bit of trial and error. This is probably more user error than app capability.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our business lacked comprehensive data analytics that gave real insight into the business and trends. Metabase allowed us to begin the journey and see what more powerful BI tools can deliver to help understand the business at a deeper level.
As the name suggests Easiest way to share data and analytics

Easy to use, free access and no limits regarding the number of tables/data models/dashboards. There is an opportunity to provide public access to the reports
What do you dislike about the product?
Does nop applicable for users without SQL knowledge. To build more complex data models/charts, Excel is still the best tool

Speed when creating indicators and metrics

Pass parameters or associate variables to a Metabase user to be able to use them in SQL queries. For example, users from state X only see the invoices from their state and not from all states.

Development, implementation, and training time. Ease of creating questions with different types of charts, ease of creating tables with dynamic filters.
REVIEW Metabase

Accessing market data as I engage prospects in real time, This helps me drive value.
Metabase - Less robust BI tool but Self-serve quick analytics for your analytics team
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Metabase is relatively quick and easy to use if the reporting layer is set up correctly to use the self-serve options available. If reporting layer isn't set up correctly with views that accomplish both fact and dimensional qualities, then it won't be easy to scale as you will be stuck using the custom SQL queries for every card you make.
What do you dislike about the product?
Filtering and dates can sometimes be confusing if you are doing custom SQL queries due to the custom queries' variable attributes. Visualization customization is also minimal; with only nine colors to choose from, it has that open-source feel. Very basic dashboards with snap to the grid that gives a very boxy appeal.
If you are wanting a more robust BI tool, this might not be for you.
If you are wanting a more robust BI tool, this might not be for you.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To streamline across the analysts in making the self-serve option available so anyone can go in and analyze without writing large queries.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Metabase is great if you want a self-serve option for quick and dirty analytics across the board. However, it falls short when you are looking for more robust insights. Again, the self-serve option really only works if the reporting layer is set-up properly so that the need for custom sql queries becomes lower. Metabase is also very limited in visualization customization and designing dashboards.
