What you give up vs Google Sheets
- Younger project; some automation and integration features are still maturing.
- Smaller template and extension ecosystem than Airtable.
- Enterprise features (advanced auth, audit) are reserved for paid editions.
- Fewer third-party sync connectors than the commercial original.
What you gain
- • Full data ownership — self-host Teable on your own infrastructure.
- • No per-seat SaaS bill (Google Sheets: data living on Google’s servers).
- • Open-source code you can audit and extend (AGPL-3.0).
