I am just trying to understand how Metabase works.
I can see on the home screen that it makes up all kinds of charts and graphs.
We need to be able to distribute reports to several people. Does Metabase allow us to do this?

Metabase connects to your application's database.
You then create 'Questions' by using the data from the applications.
The Questions are then added to 'Dashboards'.
For your scenario, you can subscribe to both dashboards and questions on a schedule. Alternatively you could create an alert which only sends the question when there is something to report.
I come from a Business Intelligence background. The bit that Metabase doesn't have is paginated reporting (think SSRS/Crystal/Jasper). It's very good at the interactive dashboard bit.
