"Lightdash: Lightning-Fast dbt-Powered BI with Rapid Feature Releases"
5/5
What do you like best about Lightdash?

It is built on top of dbt and combines the best of all worlds:

- it is 10x faster to compute visualizations than Tableau

- it is much easier to built data models than in Tableau or Looker

- data models are directly "verified"/they break if they are not compatible within dbt (in Tableau/Looker, similar tools -- these are two separate worlds)

- the Lightdash team releases new features (also upon request) at lightning speed

- I can build new dashboards/charts via prompting in Cursor Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lightdash?

Honestly I don't see any so far: If at all, it requires relatively high technical skill. It cannot be used effectively by a "plug-n-play" BI Analyst.

If the price is an issue, one can consider self-hosting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
