Simce the start ive been excited about that #### Cons Baserow still does not allow copying bases #### Reasons for switching to Baserow Cost and self hosted version. As well as the simple interface #### Vendor response Hi Jader, thanks for your recommendation and review! It's possible to copy databases—simply click on the ellipses next to the database and then click 'Duplicate.' That'll do it. - Hiram Replied January 2025 --- ### Baserow Review - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Jamie S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Entertainment - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: April 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Categories are flexible, the interface is easy to read, easy to collaborate with other in the company, less expensive than competitors #### Cons We need a mobile version, capability to create more Views, and an easier Search function. #### Reasons for switching to Baserow I moved jobs, and my previous company used AirTable. #### Vendor response Hi Jamie, thanks for your review! Baserow is mobile friendly on the web, so you can use it on any browser. With that said, if our community feels that that a native mobile app would be helpful, it's something we can dive further into. More views are coming (see the roadmap), and it'd be great to hear how we can improve search. Drop us a line in the Baserow Community and let's discuss! -Hiram Replied May 2024 --- ### Baserow is excellent - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Cyrill H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: November 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Overall the experience is very positive and there are people behind committed to making Baserow better. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Baserow is simply excellent and we use it to manage all our marketing in one central place. It offers us an easy way to create a database, collect data and trigger automations via Make.com. Its a great and better alternative than Airtable. Also the fact that there is a self-hosted option, make this really attractive. We keep discovering new ways of using Baserow as we go, and we plan to use it as our central database to manage all kinds of activities. #### Cons At some times it might be a bit cumbersome to understand how it works or to find the exact solution to your problem. However, we kept trying and thanks to the Baserow Community and their Support we always could figure it out. #### Reasons for choosing Baserow Open Source Solution, it was cheaper and the team seem great. #### Vendor response Hey Cyrill, thanks for your glowing review. It's awesome to hear that Baserow is allowing you to manage all your marketing in a single location. Appreciate you taking the time to review us—means a lot. Cheers! Replied November 2024 --- ### Good, and improving - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Ambroise D. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Accounting - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: April 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I believe a lot in Baserow, it's clearly not perfect yet, but it's far more reliable than Airtable for many use-cases (anything that is "backend-powered"). The product team is doing a good job, the tech team has mostly made great design decisions. Stuff could be better, but they're listening to their customers. I like to compare Baserow to Airtable, because they're very much alike UI-wise, and are meant for the same people, those who aren't necessarily deeply technical but who know how to design a DB. It's much more simpler than Supabase/Xano, and with the recent addition of the App Builder (Beta), it will become even better and usable by many more people. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros - I love the fact it's open-source - Easy to deploy on self-hosted server - API is great and well designed - UI is good, although not as good as Airtable - Writing Formulas is a pain (UX can be improved) - Lookup/Rollup behave strangely with relationships - App Builder is the future #### Cons - Airtable UI is better/faster - Airtable provide more features (sync tables) #### Reasons for choosing Baserow I use both, but for different use-cases. Although, if I had to start today, I'd pick Baserow for most of it. #### Vendor response Hey Ambroise, thanks for your feedback and review! I'll be sure to pass this on to the rest of the team so we can address some of these proposed improvements. If you have any specifics, feel free to reach out directly, or pop them into community.baserow.io where we can drill down further. Thanks again! Replied April 2024 --- ### Highly recommended visual database for long-term use - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Mana K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Online Media - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: April 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I enjoy using Baserow and am happy to be part of the community. Open-sourcing your own product is not always easy in terms of intellectual property and old-school business mindset. I've migrated from Airtable/SmartSuite to Baserow and use Baserow for summary and visual data management that works well with other databases like Cloudflare D1 and MongoDB (integrated with Make.com). When it comes to Application Builder that the Baserow team is currently working on, according to their webinar, they plan to integrate other data sources and to develop a chart/graph feature, so I'm looking forward to using it. (Competitors/alternatives could be not only Airtable, but also Retool and Softr) Overall, Baserow is a cost-effective and strategic solution for your digital transformation. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros - Cost effective from free to 5 USD per month - Simple and clean interface - Simple but useful API endpoints - Nice and supportive community - Application builder is evolving now - Open-source mindset and movement #### Cons - Application builder could have more feature (expectation for the future) - Filters should be sent as POST request rather than a GET parameter #### Reasons for choosing Baserow Open-source mindset and they might think that Baserow is a rich user interface (view/boundary) of other micro services in system integration. #### Reasons for switching to Baserow Cost, simplicity, API-oriented feature, open-source #### Vendor response Hi Mana, thanks for sharing your feedback! Glad to see you're excited about the Application Builder too. We're planning on having it out of public beta later this year, so if you have specific functionality recommendations, we're all ears. Great to see you're maximizing Baserow's open source nature as well. Replied May 2024 --- ### Best Open Source Self-Hosted Airtable Alternative - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Daniel R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Human Resources - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: May 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Perfect solution for a small business that needs a database, wants an inexpensive and scalable solution and that wants to control its data. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros If you want the ease of use of solutions like Airtable but at the same time control over your data and no vendor lock-in, look no further than Baserow! #### Cons The product is stable but not fully mature yet. Do not expect perfect UI/UX that other solutions like Rows or Airtable might offer. #### Reasons for choosing Baserow Open Source, scalable, real Postgres DB under the hood #### Reasons for switching to Baserow Costs, data control, scalability #### Vendor response Hey Daniel, Thanks for your awesome review! We've got tons of exciting new updates every month, so keep an eye on the roadmap and feel free to jump into the community with your feature suggestions. :) - Hiram Replied May 2023 --- ### Baserow: The Low Code Base we all wanted - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jacob B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: May 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Very good. I'm rooting for this platform to succeed in the long run. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I like that it is using a FOSS model, and features self-hosting. The UI is much more laid back compared to competitors like SmartSuite and Airtable. Which can be a bit much with the UI colors. Baserow has the cleanness of a tool like Notion which I prefer.Also, the templates are really good. Would love to be able to help expand them.Love how the forms work as well as public sharing, it's just better than Airtable's setup here. Something nice about the cloud-based version. #### Cons The user access is really bad. There should be a way to share a single base without everything in the workspace without having to go to the highest plan. Even then going through teams only for that kind of access is archaic and harder for users to manage. I have files I'd like only certain people to access, and sometimes on an individual basis. I would love it if Baserow had a feature to let guests edit public files without an account. Similar to a form.Wish it had more "extension" features, maybe a click-up or notion direct integration. Zapier helps here, though, I want to use this as a database inside of other tools directly. There are a lot of systems that do project management very well and it would be better to use this inside of those than lock it as a competitor of those systems to "compete". The pricing model is what it is, but I don't like it. A huge reason of why I've switched out of Airtable was cost. It seemed like you kept upgrading and upgrading and still were missing key features behind a payroll. For a team that got expensive. Baserow is much cheaper, but I'd feel more inclined to pay for the premium if I got more for it. Not just one user, not all of these scope limitations, a real value add for an org. This software is competing against google sheets which works just as well for 90+% of people with the same use cases for absolutely no cost. Figuring out how much you're going to pay for a team with most of these base software's is going to require thi #### Reasons for switching to Baserow Cost, convenience, and the opensource title. Stuff is moving to self-hosted. Value adds. Etc. Software has never been this good, and this diverse. So the best players are going to get the attention over time. #### Vendor response Hey Jacob, Really appreciate your input and in-depth review! Glad that the templates are helpful—we have new ones (and updates to existing ones) with every release, so keep an eye out on those. We're going to take some notes regarding your suggestions around user access control. Security is a huge point of focus for us, which includes RBAC and granular permissions for both internal and external collaborators. Would also love to hear more about how you're using Baserow in conjunction with Notion and ClickUp, and learn how you'd envision an integration or "use [Baserow] inside of those" as you mentioned. I'd encourage you to jump into the Baserow Community (community.baserow.io) so that we can discuss with the broader team and better understand to see if we can hopefully make something happen. - Hiram Replied May 2023 --- ### Superb open source project management tools - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: FX Bayu A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer & Network Security - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: April 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I love using Baserow, it helped my team to manage the task. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Baserow provides open source version, which helped a lot for nonprofit companies to manage their team and projects. #### Cons - There is no desktop version of baserow. - Cannot add WYSIWYG page on an item/task #### Reasons for choosing Baserow Baserow provides open source version, that can be deployed on our server. #### Reasons for switching to Baserow Notion have more flexible feature like creating layout (table, kanban, calendar, board, etc) based on the same table. Notion also has desktop version that robust the performance. #### Vendor response Hi FX Bayu, thanks for taking the time to review! We don't get a lot of requests for a desktop version of Baserow, but if our community members are interested, it's something we can look into. In the meantime, there are some solutions that turn web apps into "native" apps using wrappers. Suggest looking into that if it's of interest. Regarding views: Baserow has Grid (table) Kanban (board), and Calendar views available. Lastly: Be sure to enable rich text formatting when creating a Long Text field. That should help! –Hiram Replied May 2024 --- ### It's easy to create databases and project management systems - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: João J. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Internet - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: April 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall I'm very happy with Baserow, and it allows me to deal with the information I need for a fair price. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros The huge ammount of field types, which allows the creation of very complete and complex information systems easily. #### Cons On the premium plan (the middle plan) the number of rows per workspace (10.000) is very low. This number should be higher. #### Reasons for switching to Baserow The price of Airtable increased and it became too expensive. #### Vendor response Hi João, thanks for reviewing Baserow! We've taken note of your request regarding Premium's row limit. I'll pass this on to the product team to discuss. Sounds like you're making great use of Baserow's field types to get a grip on your complex data sets.

Would be good to learn a little more about the "writing rate" that you're referring to, so if you're open to it, create a post on the Baserow Community forum and let's figure out if there's something we can do to improve your process! -Hiram Replied May 2024 --- ### Great option for quickly turning ideas into reality - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Brandon A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: May 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. For most of what I've tried in Baserow it just works the way I'd expect it to work. Also, there have been multiple times where I've wished for a feature in my head and then shortly after it's been implemented. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I love the flexibility and the ease of implementing basic relationships between tables, calculated fields, and different field types. #### Cons When using the API, the field names are very cryptic and I haven't figured out a way to make them more readable. #### Reasons for choosing Baserow Baserow is a great middle option between the alternatives that is easy to set up #### Vendor response Hey Brandon, thanks for your review! Mind reading is something we implemented recently, which is how we've been able to ship features shortly after you think of them. (Kidding.) On a more serious note, we have some API docs which should be helpful, but if you still need some help, I'd recommend jumping into the Baserow Community (community.baserow.io) so that a fellow Baserower can help you out. -Hiram Replied June 2023 --- ### Great open source alternative to AirTable - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Paul P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used monthly for less than 6 months - Reviewed: May 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Good product to use for project management if you're going to get the paid tier but it's also just a solid AirTable alternative if you need a quick database for small integrations. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The free tier is super generous, making it an easy recommendation for many clients to just test the waters first before committing to the product full on. It has support for many types of fields but we're waiting on a few more to be released! #### Cons Kanban isn't available on the free tier, making it difficult to use it on small unpaid projects for planning. #### Reasons for choosing Baserow It's open source and self-hostable with a very generous free plan. #### Vendor response Hey Paul, Thanks for using Baserow! Glad you're enjoying the generous hosted storage limits. Take a glance at our roadmap and/or GitLab repo—we'd be interested to hear what other field types you're looking for so we can make it happen. - Hiram Replied May 2023 --- ### High potential database - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Samuel V. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Arts and Crafts - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: May 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Very nice and easy to understand. I created a lot of functions and it will be usefull for the project management. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros - the number of type of fields- view of each parameter of other tables- Easy computation of data- Possibility to use data with other apps (retool, appsmith, etc...) #### Cons - not able to find easily identical data on big data import from csv for example- the filtering with only "and" or "or" is very boring and timewasting when we want to filter on a multiple value parameter with a lot of values- Computed link to data from other tables not available- agenda should be improved and a way to link to personnal agenda (gmail or other) #### Reasons for choosing Baserow open source ! #### Vendor response Hey Samuel, appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with Baserow! Awesome to hear that you've got a lot of functions working together to manage your projects and data. Interested to hear more about your issue identifying identical data on import. Would you mind popping this (and your other questions) into the Baserow Community (community.baserow.io)?

No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros In olden times, one would build integration around spreadsheets with technologies like Visual Basic and such. Filemaker is another piece of software that comes to mind. These projects often grow to form the backbone of small-medium sized companies. While the use case is completely legitimate, it can be frustrating to see the vendor lock-in and potential tech debt this causes. Baserow is open source, really nice and accessible from a user perspective and yields the more modern integration landscape of a web application / REST API. #### Cons Functionality is sometimes a little too basic, having page-sized print layouts would enable many more use cases. #### Vendor response Hi Frank, Thanks for sharing your experience and input. We'd love to know what functionality you think Baserow is missing—check out our roadmap and/or GitLab repo to see if something catches your eye. Also curious about the page-sized print layouts you're mentioning—not sure I fully understand the use case, but feel free to pop this into the Baserow Community (community.baserow.io) so we can understand and evaluate your suggestion (and make it happen). - Hiram Replied May 2023 --- ### Best database - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Felipe Nunes S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Accounting - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: April 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

No incentive was offered Overall, I had a solid experience using Baserow and I would recommend it to anyone coming from a background of using Notion or Airtable. I had connection issues with Notion and Airtable where I am from. However, I could easily fix that problem by hosting an instance of Baserow in my own server. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros I think the most I liked about Baserow was that it offered a lot of the features I was expecting coming from using Notion. I also worked with Airtable before and I think that Baserow can substitute both those platforms. But it exceeds them because Baserow is open source. That's what I like about this app. You can host it wherever you want and you get a solid user experience. I certainly see myself using this app for my day to day needs and for my clients as well. Also preparing templates with this app is easy and I would definitely pursue that angle as well. #### Cons I feel like a rich text field like HTML or Markdown is missing in Baserow. I saw it in their development roadmap and I can't wait to also see that field in the list of fields Baserow offers. This is important to me because with this field, I won't have to rely on google docs, or uploading markdown files to the attachment field for writing longer form content. #### Reasons for switching to Baserow Connection Issues with Notion and vendor lock-in. I feared that I might lose my data if I continued to use Notion. #### Vendor response Hey Zachary, Really appreciate your evaluation and recommendation of Baserow! Rich text field is indeed on the roadmap, and a feature I'm personally really excited for as well. We'll take into consideration the possible implementation of Markdown too, which I'm a _big_ fan of. With this, Baserow could be an extremely powerful CMS and handle tons of long-form content with more versatility. - Hiram Replied May 2023 --- ### Aplicaciones Personalizadas Sin Codificación - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Bernabe A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for free trial - Reviewed: April 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.
