Advantages of SeaTable over Microsoft Lists

If you know Microsoft Lists, you will love SeaTable. SeaTable offers more features and, as the only alternative, the option to run SeaTable on your own server, in your data center, with your domain, and with your corporate identity.

On-Premise

Company data does not belong in foreign hands but in a self-hosted SeaTable system.

Microsoft Lists is only available as part of Office 365 from the Microsoft Cloud. With SeaTable, you decide where to install your system and who has access to your data.

SeaTable runs on both Linux and Windows servers, dedicated or virtualized. Even cluster operation is possible.

More features and views

SeaTable offers more column types, views, and input options.

With over 20 column types, SeaTable provides significantly more data collection options than Microsoft Lists.

Only SeaTable allows linking of sheets, data entry via web forms, and displays data as Kanban or as charts.

You define the appearance of your solution

Use your own URL, logo, and colors to provide SeaTable to your employees.

You cannot adapt Microsoft Lists to your corporate design, just like other Office 365 products. You have to take what you get.

SeaTable is exactly the opposite. You determine under which URL the system is accessible, which colors and logo are used, and you can even customize the templates in SeaTable individually.

Free trial, affordable business packages

SeaTable is not tied to any Office package. You can easily test SeaTable in the cloud.

SeaTable is available in various versions. The SeaTable Cloud offers all user functions, so you can try out SeaTable conveniently. The SeaTable Server can also be installed and tested free of charge and without obligation with up to three users.

Individual extensions and plugins

SeaTable’s plugin system sets no limits to your imagination.

Need a special display of geo-data? No problem!

SeaTable offers its own plugin system, allowing you to expand and adapt SeaTable’s functions to your needs as you wish.

More and more flexible input options

Don’t let Microsoft Lists restrict you to manual data entry and Excel import.

Microsoft Lists offers fewer data entry functions than SeaTable. Use web forms, sharing links, and “Data Collection Sheets” to let your employees or business partners collect data. Only this way can you consolidate all information and data in one system.

Complete and flexible API

Manage your entire system, users, and bases with the API.

Microsoft Lists does not offer an API interface, making it difficult to integrate Microsoft Lists with your own solutions.

The SeaTable API makes this very easy. You have access to all API functions for modifying data within a base, and many other API calls are available for regular users, team leaders, and system administrators. Check out our API Reference .

Absolute data security and EU GDPR

Only with SeaTable do you have full control and determine where your data is stored.

Microsoft is an American company and stores its data in American data centers. If that’s not a problem for you, we congratulate you. But if you want full control over data flows and storage locations, you should use your own SeaTable server. This way, you can also use SeaTable for sensitive, personal data or in areas where increased protection is required. Only an on-premise system can do that.
