Luzmo versus Metabase
Compare	Luzmo	Metabase
Verdict	Depends	Depends
Best for	SaaS teams embedding customer-facing dashboards	Startups wanting free BI on existing databases
Who it's not for	Internal-only BI . use Metabase or spreadsheets	Teams with nobody to own hosting and patching
Privacy	No known public vulnerabilities found in the sources reviewed.^⁸	Active 2026 vulnerability stream . four critical CVEs including an unauthenticated SQL injection; prompt patching is non-optional.¹³
Support quality	Users cite great support (vendor-cited)	No support-quality evidence in sources
Public sentiment	Users across G2, Capterra, AWS Marketplace, and Reddit praise ease of use, flexibility, and responsive support.^¹	Users like the query builder and SQL access; recurring gripes are exports, dashboard customization, and slow queries on big datasets.
Biggest gotcha	Three pricing editions exist; viewer and usage limits aren't public . expect a sales call	Self-hosting means you own patching; 2026 fixes spanned 55.13, 56.3, 57.1 and later
