Redash Metabase

Introduction to the course

Dear learner,

Welcome to this course about data visualization. I wanted this course as most of digital analysts are mostly swearing about Google Data Studio, an attractive platform which allows to create nice graphs, tables and charts... write analysis by gathering data from many third party platforms... and of course... giving even more power to Google by giving straight away your brain work to it. Google is not the only one making such solutions Tableau (hosted on Amazon Web Services) and Microsoft BI are also very common used platforms.

Metabase - local install -because it's free, and because it is possible to stand up client type versions, and because it is easier to roll out to a team with less coding skills. It may be possible we could get metabase to do everything redash does, but for now, the convenience and lack of time to figure out how, both it is.
With Redash, you can write queries and display the results on sharable dashboards and visualizations. In its built-in SQL editor, you can create reusable code snippets and schedule alerts and data refreshes. This BI tool designed for developers has an easy clickable or drop-and-drag user interface.
