Glean.io is exceptionally well for creating automation data visualisation dashboards. Exploring the data is again highly effective. Visualisations are easily customisable to best suit the requirements of the team. Collaborating and commenting around the dashboards is very smooth. If there are any changes in the system or any feature requests, the support team takes some time to respond

Metabase
Metabase is an easy tool to use if you are interested in collecting and aggregating data from multiple platforms. It is also easy to set up and start receiving the data results as a report. It is also easy to integrate with other tools that generate visual reports and take the necessary actions based on the data details.

Alternatives Considered
Discontinued Products
For simple use cases, Glean.io is a lightweight alternative to SAP Analytics Cloud. Provisioning, testing, and documentation are easier and less intimidating in the Glean.io case. Thus, it is easy to explore without firing up the sales machinery of the big corporates. Thus, the process of looking into and testing it out was way more convenient. Further, the data ops features were new to use and seem to be unique with Glean.io.

Metabase
  • It is serving us whatever we're looking for, and we've recommended many organizations to implement it if they want better data analytics as it provides better functionality than we will build.
  • As a negative it gets difficult to get control over data to be fetch initially.
