At Budibase, we give away SSO for free. Putting a price on security felt wrong.

Wonderful illustrations and writing. Real interesting read.

How does this differ to Budibase?

Exportable?

I believe they'll settle on splitting out Youtube - which I believe makes perfect sense and from a rev/valuation perspective, would be a top 20 company.

I found the post interestingly personable, something that I don't often find with Google. I've used Google Scholar for many years, before I used Elsevier and it was a gamechanger.

What were your thoughts on Budibase?

Why is this different from tools like

Budibase Baserow NocodeDB

Consider using a low code platform to test your thesis first. Use a platform like Budibase or something, that's open source, you can self-host and use your own database for security reasons.

I find it hard to believe Google will let go of their golden goose. It's too risky for them.

I'm sorry to hear about your years of torment.

I think I was pretty open in my comment (cofounder).

They copied Attio's SVG image and everything. My issue was not the aesthetics but the fact they copied another organization's work. Surely, you don't think that's right?

The others are open source

Annoying but I felt exactly the same. I'd advise you to rename the project - it's still early days and the longer it goes on the harder it will be to change - I've felt this pain.

Wow - did you just completely rip off Attio's website:

Your website: https://teable.io/

Attios website: https://attio.com/

Also, what makes this different from:

Budibase (cofounder) https://budibase.com

Baserow https://baserow.com

Nocodb https://nocodb.com

Or... An open-source alternative

https://budibase.com/forms

It's particularly focused on CRUD apps, SQL and Rest.

Budibase is great at generating CRUD apps based on a model.

Give Budibase a whirl - it's open source and sits between Airtable and Airplane from a UX perspective.

Congratulations to the Airplane team.

Is this Airtable moving in the direction of low-code rather than no code? Puts them up against tools like:

Budibase [https://github.com/Budibase/budibase]

Retool [Https://retool.com]

How would you compare this to tools like Budibase?

Why did Budibase not suffice?

The term low code is horrible. It's overused, misused and probably created by a marketing team to sell ads.

There are a wide variety of platforms. Some are very open and honest about their core use cases (forms, Crud apps, automations). I work for an open source platform, Budibase, and they're pretty open in re to their use cases.

Others promise the world (SaaS apps, social networks) which are outside of their capabilities and probably not a great investment imo.

Spreadsheets are still dominant, but they're also the reason why many users turn to a low code platform.

This is a great example. Low-code is not the solution to everything, like spreadsheets were not the solution to everything.

With low-code, it really does help if the platform is easily extendible and open source. Also, it's important the IT team owns the low-code platform.

For anything complex, for example a SaaS platform, your best bet is to build from scratch with code. The flexibility, ownership and technical viability are essential in these scenarios.

For simple CRUD apps, internal tools, reports, spreadsheet replacement - low-code platforms - particularly OSS options (Budibase, Appsmith, and others)

Emacs were pretty productive but sometimes overcomplicated imo. Remember TRAMP mode?

For an open source alternative try something like Budibase or Baserow.

Budibase has its own database and can connect to other data databases.

On top of that: It's open source/supports self hosting Supports JS Design/interfaces are much more flexible

I'm the co-founder of Budibase and we've spent the last 5 years building what we believe is a better, faster, open source replacement for VB.

Budibase is open-source, including the workflow platform which has helped accelerate thousands of workflows already:
