Debating this right now along with some other tools. Leaning more towards Metabase because with the use case of our very non-technical business side, it is probably easier for them to pick it up. They really just want to drill down in the end and not play around with too many types of visualizations. Lightweight install also ends up being lighter maintenance. I can't even get Superset to work consistently on my local machine let alone what will happen when it's in production 😱

Apache Superset supports scheduled reporting, even has alerts based on a query

You nailed it. Metabase is easy to install, get up and running, and start using quickly. It's good for beginners who already knows SQL and need to make fast visualizations, but has a lot of limits, presentation-wise.

Used Metabase for various kinds of visualisations and I can say that it can be very helpful and offers great features.

Cool, can we do customization? 1) conditional graphs (graphs based on dropdown) 2) Additional text about datapoint shown on or below the graph 3) Can we do additions customization like html overlay? 4) How scalable are these? appreciate it!
