"Spreadsheet-Like Database That Supercharges My Workflow"

5/5

What do you like best about Grist?

Spreadsheet, but also a database—and a database that still feels spreadsheet-like. It’s very useful and makes it easy to connect data, which has improved my workflow a lot compared with using a traditional spreadsheet. At the same time, it remains intuitive for non-programmers who want to work with a database that looks and behaves like a spreadsheet.

I’ve tried several no-code database tools like Budibase, NocoDB, and NocoBase, as well as full ERP systems like ERPNext and Dolibarr. For my needs, I think Grist hits the sweet spot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Grist?

Sharing a document or a workspace feels a bit awkward. I can’t share a workspace, and when I share documents there isn’t a list of users who already use my Grist, so I have to type each email address every documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Grist solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am using Grist for my company’s operations. Before, I was using spreadsheets, and it was quite difficult to build a logical relationship between the data and map everything into a timeline. After I found Grist, I think it’s much better for creating relationships between data and organizing it more clearly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
