Steep learning curve, high licensing fees
Your standard business users struggle with Tableau's steep learning curve, yet you're paying enterprise licensing fees for tools they rarely touch.
Overkill for basic analytics needs
Heavy BI infrastructure eats budget for simple embedded dashboards and self-service analytics.
Fear of breaking historical reporting
Your team wants lightweight, open-source cloud analytics but can't risk losing historical reporting during the move.
Tableau Server → Metabase migration — your questions answered
Will I lose access to my historical dashboards during the migration?+
We maintain your Tableau Server under vendor support while the contract is active, so historical dashboards stay accessible. If the vendor renewal lapses, our third-party support covers most operational issues on the legacy platform. There's no forced big-bang cutover—you migrate on your timeline.
How long does a Tableau Server to Metabase migration take, and what does it cost?+
Most projects take 1–3 months with 1–2 of our senior engineers. Budget typically ranges from $20,000 to $110,000, based on workbook complexity and number of data sources. We scope everything upfront so there are no surprises.
What makes a Tableau-to-Metabase migration difficult?+
Complex, multi-layered dashboards, proprietary Tableau LODs and window functions, and Excel files loaded directly on local machines. We identify these in the feasibility assessment and handle them with custom mapping and validation testing.
Can you replicate every complex Tableau dashboard exactly in Metabase?+
Yes. For simple, pixel-perfect reports we rebuild them in Metabase. For deeply complex dashboards with many layers or proprietary calculations, we recommend a functional equivalent that delivers the same insights without replicating exact pixel positions. This keeps the project fixed-scope and on budget.

Your Tableau Server stays supported under your vendor contract during the entire migration. If that contract lapses, our independent third-party support covers most operational issues on Tableau Server while you finish the move. Once you're live on Metabase, we also maintain your cloud Server, tune query indexes, and optimize database models to keep user insights fast.
