Interestingly, we (Fieldbook) used handsontable for a long time, but eventually found it wasn't performant enough for the size of data we had (also we just needed to be able to do more customization than we could wrangle out of it)

Thanks! We actually have a few user success stories, and most of our templates are directly from use cases we've seen people use. Here is a story of Data Analysis tracking sales leads: https://medium.com/@fieldbook&#x2

Definitely hear you! We are working on some performance improvements right now, if you contact us in app, we might be able to figure out what is happening with your data. 2500 rows and 20 columns should still be snappy!

We definitely intend to be in this for the long haul! We will always let your data out of Fieldbook, we already support CSV downloads of any sheet or view, and we are thinking about a wide variety of export and sync options to other servic

Yep! Definitely. We don't (yet) show cursors and who is connected like google docs does, but you do see changes replicated to all windows / users in real time. You can even see your own real-time changes from API calls in realti

We want you to use Fieldbook as your database, so we don't limit the number of api calls or books you can have in Fieldbook! (we hate when you run up against an artificial limit and have to scramble to get your product back online). :)

The paid tier right now offers a couple of things, mainly focused on business administration. In particular, the ability to manage accounts in your organization (remove access once someone has left the company for instance) and priority su

We love using Fieldbook for CMS use cases. We think the public API coupled with public posts is a great fit for the API, too. We don't handle image uploads yet. Definitely something we want to support in the future. Of course, you c

Unfortunately we don't yet have that particular feature... But we definitely want to do something like that in the future. What are you thinking you'd use it for (we love to collect information like that for when we do implement

Hey Folks! I'm the CTO of Fieldbook, we're really proud of what we've built here. In particular, I really like our API explorer that allows you to run real node code right in the browser to explore our API. (And see our real

Sorry it didn't make sense. Definitely something we need to iterate more on. If you want some specific help, we are definitely happy to provide us. We have an intercom/message us chat system that we love to help users with.

Thanks! We've tried to do a bunch of iteration on user experience, obviously more to do. Fast iteration and unit/automated tests have been key to being able to build this product.

Greetings fellow devs! I'm the CTO of Fieldbook, happy to talk about anything. We use a node backend stack, with mongodb, and a backbone based front end. We use socketio for realtime and rabbit for some back end messaging. I'm a

I just wanted to say thanks to the author of this article (I hope they are reading this section). This post really made me think hard about reddit, and about my own personal values. I've decided, personally, to stay away from reddit
