Metabase

Ask questions of your database without writing SQL.

Visit Metabase Freemium

Metabase connects to a database and lets non-technical people build charts and dashboards through a point-and-click query builder, while still allowing SQL for anyone who wants it. It is open source and self-hostable, which makes it the default choice for small teams needing internal reporting without a BI contract.

Where it falls short

It is a query and visualisation layer, not a data warehouse, so performance depends entirely on how your data is modelled.
