You've transitioned to the cloud but your spreadsheets haven't

Your data is in the cloud, but most work still happens in Excel, disconnected from the data warehouse. Teams export CSVs of data out of cloud tools and immediately lose the scale, security, and live connectivity of the cloud.

Cloud connected spreadsheet

Row Zero spreadsheets securely connect to the data warehouse, scale to a billion rows, and auto-update with the latest data. Users securely work with governed cloud data in a familiar spreadsheet - same formulas, features, and shortcuts. Data never leaves the cloud.

Compare Row Zero vs Excel vs BI tools

Excel & Google Sheets
BI Tools

Usability

Universal. Anyone with spreadsheet skills.
Universal. Anyone with spreadsheet skills.
Rigid UIs. Most users export data to work in spreadsheets.

Scalability

1 billion+ rows (1000x Excel's limits)
Excel – 1,048,576 row limit. Google Sheets – 10M cell limit.
Unlimited — compute and processing is pushed down to the data warehouse.

Speed

Real-time interactivity. Fast with big data.
Real-time interactivity. Slow with big data.
Slow due to compute and processing delegated to the data warehouse.

Security & Governance

Modern cloud security. Governed data access and export controls.
Potential risks with files, data exports, emailing, sharing, etc.
Secure in dashboards, but users export CSVs to open in Excel.

Connectivity

Easily connects via OAuth and secure endpoints.
Difficult to securely connect to warehouse - credentials are tied to a computer + data leaves the cloud
Easily connects via OAuth and secure endpoints.

Cost

Business plans start at $20/seat
Included with productivity suite. Total cost of ownership rises with add-ins and support resources.
Double cost driver — expensive seat licenses plus data warehouse compute.
