Things you probably wonder

Baserow works with companies of all sizes, across every industry — even ones with strict data governance rules as we offer self-hosting solutions. Whatever work you do, you can capture, organize, visualize and maintain all your data efficiently using Baserow.

Baserow is an open-source no-code database. Our database platform enables both non-technical and technical teams to capture, organize and build logical relationships between data to trigger decisions and automate processes. We focus on openness, scalability, performance, and data security.

Almost all of the Baserow code is MIT licensed, and it is the most permissive license out there. As a permissive license, it puts only very limited restrictions on reuse and has, therefore, high license compatibility.

Baserow is a to-go solution to keep everything in sync across any organization. Use Baserow to: - Align everyone on tasks and objectives. - Collaborate more effectively between team members. - Visualize progress on your projects. - Keep your data updated and visible to everyone. If you use Excel to capture and organize data, using Baserow gives you more: collaboration, more data types, different views, relationships between tables and much more. Baserow is a real database without technical developer skills required.

Baserow is available in 6 languages: English, Français, Nederlands, Deutsch, Italiano, Español — and it’s only the beginning! We’ll continue making our product feel native to more and more people. To set up your language: go to Settings → Interface Language in your account.

We prioritize data protection through several measures. Firstly, user data is regularly backed up with point-in-time recovery, ensuring data integrity and availability. Additionally, all data stores and S3 buckets housing customer data are encrypted at rest, enhancing data security. For data transmission, TLS 1.2 or higher is utilized, bolstering security when data is transmitted over potentially insecure networks. In terms of compliance, we are SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, and HIPAA compliant, reflecting our commitment to meeting industry standards. Transparency is a priority, with almost all of our code being source available, allowing for scrutiny and verification. Access control is enforced through role-based security measures, providing robust authentication and ensuring only authorized personnel have access to sensitive data. Our team members play an essential role in maintaining security, as they undergo regular internal training to stay vigilant and respond effectively to potential threats. Data location is a critical aspect of our security strategy, and all user data is securely stored in Amsterdam, Netherlands, Europe, ensuring data safety and compliance with regional regulations. To proactively address security risks, we employ automated vulnerability scanning and utilize frameworks like Django and Vue.js in our development processes to avoid common security mistakes, safeguarding our systems and user data.

Safeguarding data is fundamental to Baserow. Baserow is GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2 compliant. We prioritize privacy and security across every part of our platform and infrastructure. Building and maintaining user trust is paramount, and we consistently seek opportunities to enhance Baserow's privacy and security.

However, if you want to activate the Premium features, you need to pay for it on a per-user per-month basis.

Baserow Self-Hosted will never place limits on rows, records, webhooks, or API requests—they will always be unlimited. In Baserow Cloud, there's a limit of 10 concurrent API requests. This limit is subject to a fair use policy, and we reserve the right to lower it if it affects overall performance. For webhooks in Baserow Cloud, there is a maximum capacity of 5,000 pending calls per webhook. Any additional calls beyond this limit will be dropped. Please note that webhook calls are handled one at a time.

Baserow has an active web socket connection to receive real-time updates. The "Connection to the server failed" pop-up on Baserow.io is related to real-time collaboration. It indicates that there is a temporary issue with your connection to the Baserow server. This could be due to a variety of reasons, such as network instability, server maintenance, or an interruption in your internet connection. If you lose your internet connection, put your device in sleep mode, or similar, you could lose connection. Baserow will attempt to reconnect many times, but it will display a warning if that fails. In many cases, the connection problem is usually temporary. You can restore the connection to the Baserow server by refreshing the page. If the issue persists or you suspect it’s specific to your Baserow account, contact the Baserow support team for further assistance.
