If you're looking for a Power BI alternative, you might want something that's easier for non-technical people to self-serve. This video compares Metabase and Power BI directly, covering ease of use, SQL requirements, and self-serve capability.
A lot of it will come down to how much you want people to use it (and be able to get answers on their own with or without knowing SQL), your budget, your preferred data stack, and how fast you need to get started.
Power BI has a steeper learning curve than Metabase. People (even non-technical or data-savvy folks) actually like using Metabase, because it’s easier to learn, meaning they’re more likely to run reports and get data on their own.
Metabase gets up and running in 5 minutes, and suits all budgets (and you can try it for free).
