About
NocoDB helps teams turn structured information into a shared working system without building a custom application first. Records can be explored through grid, Kanban, gallery, form and calendar views, making the same data useful for different jobs. A team might manage an operational register in a grid while collecting new entries through a form. The platform supports its own hosted databases and, on eligible plans, connections to PostgreSQL or MySQL. That makes it useful when business users need a friendlier interface to structured data. It is not simply a dashboard product: the emphasis is on organizing and working with records. Cloud limits, external database access and permissions vary by tier, while self-hosted licensing is a separate choice.
Editor's note
NocoDB is a practical option for teams whose spreadsheets have become shared operational databases. The important pricing detail is that cloud Plus does not include external database connections. Buyers with existing SQL data should start their comparison at Business and check permissions as carefully as record limits.

Frequently asked

- Can the Plus cloud plan connect an existing SQL database?
- No. The current cloud pricing page excludes external database connections from Plus. Business includes ten connections. Self-hosted options have separate terms and should be evaluated independently.
