Airtable is a great tool for organizing and managing structured data, but when it comes to handling massive datasets, it quickly hits limitations. With row caps, performance slowdowns, and limited scalability, Airtable struggles with big data analysis.
Gigasheet is built for scale, allowing business users to explore, filter, pivot, and analyze datasets with millions or even billions of rows—without writing code or setting up infrastructure. If you need a no-code, spreadsheet-like interface that can handle large-scale data, Gigasheet is the perfect Airtable alternative.

Gigasheet provides unmatched big data capabilities, including:
- Massive Scale Support – Work with millions to billions of rows without performance issues.
