Redash is great. We've tried several alternatives, including Metabase, and ended up with extensive Redash use. We use the self-hosted version for sharing data between the tech and business sides, for day-to-day monitoring and for ad-hoc visualizations, and are generally very happy with it.
It's not perfect - there are some areas, like fine-control over chart customization, query auto-updates (especially queries with parameters) and the ability to queue parallel queries to the same data source which would be nice improvements, but these are nitpicks - highly recommended.
- arikfr 10y ago> queue parallel queries to the same data source That's definitely possible. You might need to tune the number of workers you have to run queries (and maybe adjust your database settings, if it has limits on concurrency). If you need help with this, you're welcome to the forum[1], Gitter[2] or Slack[3].

- marrone12 10y agoI've been looking at metabase myself. What were your main issues with it?
- etatkomoona 10y agoThe main issue for us was support of JOINs (note that this was a while ago, not sure what's the status now; I did find this relatively recent discussion, though [1]) [1] http://www.metabase.com/blog/Joins http://www.metabase.com/blog/Joins
