Hashboard
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
Very well-suited in growing organizations, at a company of the size I work at it is the perfect solution in terms of functionality and cost. Compared to other solutions like PowerBI etc, which can run into the hundreds of thousands just to implement, Metabase is fantastic. In terms of scalability, as we grow, there will be inevitable questions over how well we can grow with Metabase.

Alternatives Considered
Hashboard
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.

I used Looker in a previous role and found it clunky, difficult to navigate, hard to collaborate on, and ultimately massively expensive. I evaluated Looker to see if it would be right to implement it as a solution in my current role, but Metabase was the clear winner - the ease of use, cost, functionality, and simple report exploration made it an easy decision.
