Zoho Tables
Zoho Tables is a no-code spreadsheet-database hybrid platform designed to help teams structure data, manage workflows, and automate business processes. Combining the familiar grid layout of a spreadsheet with the relational data integrity of a database, it allows users to build custom applications without writing code. Teams can visualize data through Grid, Kanban, Gallery, and Calendar views while creating automated actions via triggers and integrations. As part of the Zoho suite, it connects natively with enterprise applications to streamline cross-departmental operations.
What it does
• Links records across multiple tables using relational fields to eliminate data duplication. • Visualizes structured project data through custom views including Grid, Kanban, Gallery, and Calendar layouts. • Triggers automated actions, status notifications, and multi-step approval workflows across connected applications. • Controls team permissions at base, table, field, and record levels for safe collaborative editing.
Why it works
Native integration with the broader Zoho ecosystem allows seamless workflow automation across business tools. Relational database capabilities provide real data architecture stability while maintaining an accessible spreadsheet interface. Granular field and record-level permissions protect sensitive enterprise information during cross-team collaboration. Affordable pricing and inclusive free tier lower adoption barriers compared to alternative proprietary relational database SaaS.

Founder story
Zoho Tables was developed by Zoho Corporation, founded in 1996 by Sridhar Vembu and Tony Thomas in Chennai, India. Recognizing that modern teams were struggling with flat, unlinked traditional spreadsheets that quickly became messy and disorganized, Zoho built Zoho Tables as a modern spreadsheet-database hybrid. It gives non-technical users relational database power within a simple, collaborative visual interface.
