If you are currently using Metabase, you might face following problems

Unable to join data across multiple data sources

Metabase builds the report by executing query on a single datasource at a time, so you cannot join data from multiple sources to build a coherent report

Inflexible for business users

Metabase interface is simple to use by business users, but very limited in capability. Business users have to work with SQL queries saved by data team. Any different ask leads to dependency on data team to create a different query.

Limited Datasources

Metabase provides datasource connectors to primarily SQL databases. If you want to connect and integrate with other kind of datasources, you have to write custom scripts.

Slow reports and difficult to maintain SQL queries

The time taken to manage the SQL queries and tune them keeps increasing.

No data preparation layer in python or SQL

Metabase does not have a data preparation and transformation layer. You have to rely and integrate with several other tools.

If you face the problems above, then Sprinkle might be a suitable alternative for your organisation.

Metabase provides you only the visual layer. Sprinkle offers additional data preparation and ELT capabilities. The core technology of Sprinkle is a semantic layer that includes Ingestion, transformation, and data modelling, that runs on top of your own infrastructure. This allows data teams to collaborate and work across the entire lifecycle of data, without writing any code. The data modelling layer allows you to create rich OLAP on your data warehouse, enabling non-technical users to do drag-and-drop analysis on their own.

David Zakkam By Swiggy

Sprinkle help us run thousands of analyses without any analysts

"Swiggy’s hyperlocal time-critical business model requires quick and accurate insights.Therefore, most business and product teams need to do analyses by themselves. To make this happen, we needed a no-code analysis platform that was feature-rich and easy to use at the same time. Sprinkle has served that purpose very well for us. Today, we have hundreds of business and product users running thousands of analyses every month without the need for any analysts."

Sprinkle helped us reduce the data dependency on engineering team

"The data team has been able to reduce the data dependency on them. Through the self-serve analytics on Sprinkle, the business & product users are able to get the required data & visualisations with ease themselves. Once the models are set up, it is very easy for users to build on new dashboards, which is very helpful in catering to ad-hoc requests."

Building of data pipeline can be done in no time with Sprinkle

"The tasks like building the data pipeline, which could have easily taken up to 2 weeks, can now be achieved with Sprinkle in a day or so. The reporting tasks that could have easily taken 4 to 8 hours can be done through automation on Sprinkle in half an hour, which is a game-changer for sales."

Really flexible,supportive in their client support

"A great data integration tool which helped our company bring together different data sources like MySQL, Mongodb, Segment and S3. It had all we wanted from a data integration and management platform at one place. Moreover the Sprinkle team is really supportive and flexible in their client support and always available even for smaller questions."
