What you give up either way
- Polished multi-view UX (Kanban, Gallery, Calendar, Map) and polish
- Built-in automations, scripting engine and enterprise workflows
- SSO, SAML/SCIM and enterprise audit/row-level security features
- High-throughput hosted infra and scaling guarantees
- Prebuilt integrations and extensions ecosystem (templates, sync connectors, AI fields routing)
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches NocoDB Cloud, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
