“Metabase continues to be the most effective way for us to build reporting efficiently — a 90/10 solution to data analytics at a cost effective price.” Source

“We love official collections — between those and models, it tells people, 'This is where you start. And this is only where you start!” Source

“I discovered Metabase while wrestling with analytics complexity, and you didn’t just solve the problem — you changed how I think about business intelligence. That’s rare.” Source
