Case Study: Alto cuts data platform costs by nearly 90% with Metabase

Alto uses Metabase for easy and effective company-wide data analysis

Alto, an investment platform in the financial services industry, needed a better business intelligence solution to replace a costly, slow, and unstable data stack. After using Tableau and finding it hard to deploy, less web-friendly, and difficult for employees to adopt, Alto looked for an open-source, Docker-compatible, web-based tool that would be easier to implement and use.

Metabase provided Alto with a lightweight, open-source, web-based analytics platform that fit smoothly into its existing infrastructure and let teams build dashboards with minimal technical expertise. With Metabase, Alto cut monthly data platform costs by nearly 90%, improved performance, and reduced ad-hoc requests to the data team by nearly 90%, while increasing data usage and engagement across the company.
