A company or organization that is in contact with the customer and wants to examine customer behavior in the purchase and selection of products and services should use this platform. It does not matter how many advertising tools and referral links or social media campaigns you use to attract customers. In any case, Magento BI integrates all the information and DB as a single platform and provides you with the best reports. Potential customers can be positioned according to location, city, country. Now we know exactly which product is most popular and where to put our advertising costs on which site or social network has the most audience.

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.

Pros
Adobe
  • It is relatively easy to manipulate the time period in which you want to see your report. This is important for our business because we are constantly analyzing sales month over month, quarter over quarter, and year over year. RJ makes it easy to toggle between these time ranges on the same report.
  • The visualizers available for reports are what you would expect out of a product like this. You have the ability to view your results in tables and a multitude of charts.
  • The ability to customize dashboards and rearrange reports quickly is great and intuitive!

Cons
Adobe
  • Educational videos and tutorials must be more simpler and more understandable language with subtitles
  • There should be the ability to select graphic diagrams with different shapes and graphs
  • The basic features of the Essential Paln can be increased with the current price so that startup companies can better use the features of this platform.

In addition to its features, it has made the Magento Commerce platform much better, more functional, and smarter, and through Magento BI dashboard they know very well what reports have been sent and all our business tools are summarized in one business platform. The ability to share report results is very popular and useful, and you can share content with anyone anywhere in the world.

The advantage of Magento BI is easier compatibility and adaptation with Adobe platforms and easier installation, configuration and customization with Mojto Store Builder and its various caskets, and I am very satisfied with it now and in every way I think it is a very good platform for integration in reporting.

Metabase
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.
