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

Good, and improving

4,0 9 maanden geleden

Opmerkingen: 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.

Pluspunten:

- 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

Minpunten:

- Airtable UI is better/faster - Airtable provide more features (sync tables)

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

Baserow is excellent

5,0 2 maanden geleden

Opmerkingen: Overall the experience is very positive and there are people behind committed to making Baserow better.

Pluspunten:

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.

Minpunten:

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.

Highly recommended visual database for long-term use

5,0 9 maanden geleden

Opmerkingen: 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.

Pluspunten:

- 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

Minpunten:

- Application builder could have more feature (expectation for the future) - Filters should be sent as POST request rather than a GET parameter

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.

Pluspunten:

Opmerkingen: Overall I'm very happy with Baserow, and it allows me to deal with the information I need for a fair price.

Pluspunten:

The huge ammount of field types, which allows the creation of very complete and complex information systems easily.

Minpunten:

On the premium plan (the middle plan) the number of rows per workspace (10.000) is very low. This number should be higher.

Why did I ever use Airtable?

4,0 9 maanden geleden

Opmerkingen: Great for managing all the data in dev and organize it before putting it in our primary database.

Pluspunten:

Infinite rows. Needed in products like these.

Minpunten:

The load time, the lack of Google cloud setup support, every so often it'll be buggy and I'm not sure what resources to upgrade - does it need more memory? A larger machine? Another instance? That feedback would be remarkable.

Great tool for Recruitment business

5,0 9 maanden geleden

Opmerkingen: Our main business tool that does not limit us.

Pluspunten:

What I like most about Baserow is the ease of usage and ease of receiving updates (Docker). The cool thing also is that the core development team is really not lazy folks, but constantly roll out useful features (like recently the App builder). Self-hosting option is also something I feel safer with.

Minpunten:

The slow community support and the fact that premium payers don't get premium support. Can't create sort filters with Lookup columns :/ Sometimes issues with file uploads that it does not work always.

Reactie Baserow

8 maanden geleden

Hi Andris, thanks for your in-depth review. Always nice to see people break free from row and storage limits with Baserow Self-Hosted. And yes, big things coming on the Application Builder side! With regards to applying filters on Lookup fields: You're right that the Lookup field is greyed out when creating a filter. However, there's an easy workaround for this. Create a new Formula field with the lookup() function. Then, wrap the join() function around it. For example, try this formula in the `Key results` table within the Business Goal Tracker template: join(lookup('Objective ID', 'Department'),''). This turns the departments into strings, which you can then apply filters to. Nevertheless, our product team is aware that we need to make this a little more intuitive so you can filter directly from a Lookup field, without the need to create a separate Formula field. Feel free to drop us a line if we can help with anything else! -Hiram

Build a database without programming skills

5,0 9 maanden geleden

Opmerkingen: Great, we are so thankful that this is available free of charge.

Pluspunten:

My [sensitive content hidden] and I were in need of a low-cost solution for managing thousands of data points to track seed accessions for ecological restoration. We were losing data with Google sheets and unable to cross-reference collection data, seed farming and overall lifecycle of seed lots. We tried a costly database used by large-scale seed farmers and it didn't meet our needs; it was slow, the interface was ancient and the workflow was not intuitive. Baserow is elegant, super fast and intuitive to use.

Minpunten:

There is a learning curve; however compared to the time we would have invested in learning Python or another programming language to custom-build a database, this is much faster.
