Spreadsheet on Steroids

  • January 30, 2024

What do you like best about the product?
Versatility. If you want to use code. You can. If you want no code but still make a complex spreadsheet, no problem. I can't think of anything I canbuild for my bsuiness. Internal and external apps. The API allows for simple integration into other processes and to set up automation. With the introduction of an Ai helper, you can use natural language to build pretty complex calculations. If you have teams or clients that need access, there is role level access to your sheets. Grist is perfect for the beginner and the expert. Open source and you can self-host. No need to sell your data for a top notch spreadsheet.
What do you dislike about the product?
A few of the help pages were a little outdated for the templates. That's it. They are super responsive. Great comminuty, and the platform itself has a number of helpful pop-ups when needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Grist handles my raw form data. With triggers, calculations and automations, it runs my backend. Emais can be sent. Invoices filled, CRM updated. Dashboard can be created easily to have your business overview at a glance. Grist is my administrative team.

One Powerful Spreadsheet to Rule Them All

  • October 21, 2021

What do you like best about the product?
Grist is a revolutionary spreadsheet that allows you to crossbreed between - internal app + spreadsheet + Airtable.
Imagine Excel, but it's not a web app that allows you to create a full-blown mini CRM for your company. With this spreadsheet-database hybrid, I can organize, analyze, and share my data in a way that works for me.
What does for me is that its open-source software that allow self-hosted solution for those who wants to keep the data private. The company also supports Grist for both types of users, and a quick video chat with them, I know I'm in good hands, especially I'd like to tinker around a bit. I see Grist as is a coding-optional database/spreadsheet processor that lets you code if you want to. You can use Python to review your document's logic in one place or use spreadsheet functions.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think it's growing at the moment they are taking lots of feedbacks such as form implementation, and they're exploring the use of Grist as a backend solution that can interact with your front-end. I'd love to see where it goes in few months to come.

Documentation is there, detail and consice, and also helpful forum, but I hope more tutorial videos + templates willl come for us to play around.

Speaking of templates, yes please more starter templates. :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For those who use Excel a lot, they know how it handles relational databases, it can be a nightmare when its huge/ lots of data. With Grist its easy to set it up, and your workflow is much faster & optimized. Less prone to error.
With API access, I can take it for manipulating documents by connecting to n8n or Zapier. It's just efficient.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try their free account, test and play around abit.

Grist is really unique tool!

  • September 30, 2021

What do you like best about the product?
Grist is super powerful at creating fairly simple 3-5 table databases, It's fast and easy to build relationships between tables and built sa simple dashboard to handle data as you need it.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface needs improvement. There are some basic usability issues, such as no automatic line width height adjustment, better search, and other stuff like that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The last time I used it, I transferred a site from Prestashop to Wordpress and quickly created tables I need to transfer all the data with the original Prestashop DB structure.
