Our team is spoiling you for this 2024 back-to-school season. Here's a preview of the new features arriving this Monday, September 30th

As part of our ongoing commitment to improving your experience, we've given our online home a fresh look and feel. We understand that change can sometimes be a bit disorienting, so we wanted to take a moment to guide you through what's new and reassure you about what hasn't changed.

At RowShare, we understand that data security and granular access control are paramount for our users. As part of our commitment to providing robust and flexible data management solutions, we are excited to introduce a new feature that allows for precise control over who can access specific columns in your tables.

As users of online tables, moreover collaborative, we constantly look for ways to optimize our working time and visualize our data most efficiently. We’re delighted to inform you that a Calendar View is now available on RowShare, regardless of your subscription level. This new feature allows you to view your data in a calendar form, making planning, tracking your tasks, and making your time more manageable. In this article, you’ll learn all the benefits of this feature and how it can help you improve your productivity.

Reliable data is crucial. Saving time while gathering it is important too. But what truly makes an impact is how well you organize and visually present that data. When sharing dashboards and reports with internal or external audiences, it’s essential that your data is not only accurate but also well-structured and easy to interpret. That’s where we come in. So, how do we make it visual?We've added several features to help you and your users better understand and manage your data.

Your data can come from many sources. This can quickly become overwhelming and lead to entering data multiple ways in many systems. That’s why we made sure you can integrate RowShare with your favorite applications! Allowing you to automatically collect all your data whatever they are, no matter its sources.

Since our launch five years ago, we have focused mostly on making our tables more useful and more secure. Today, we are very pleased to introduce new features designed to simplify the management of your RowShare subscription.For RowShare subscription administrators, we’ve added new features that aim to make your job easier. Whether it’s inviting users as easily as possible, checking whom has been access to what, or reviewing the history of board changes to understand any potential human errors, everything is done to give you full control over your organization data.

At Rowshare, we aim to offer a solution both simple to use and that adapts to our customers needs. Why? Because RowShare is not here to make your processes more burdensome. On the contrary: it is here to help you save time every day.To make sure that RowShare matches its ambitions, we have decided a few months ago to revamp our collaborative tables. And the new version of RowShare is now up and running!

RowShare just launched its Microsoft Teams application: you can now access and modify your collaborative tables straight from your channels or your chats.As you know, RowShare is perfect to collect and centralize information in a secure way. Every day, is it used by teams to work collaboratively on projects, processes, tasks. And it all starts with a shared table. As a collaborative communication platform, Microsoft Teams help team members to connect and engage.

As you were visiting our website or your tables, you might have noticed : something is different.Sure, the graphic charter is new (yes, RowShare is blue !) and the browsing changed in order to facilitate access to the table templates : more than 75 table templates ready-to-use for your business needs ( human resources, IT, sales, project management, etc.).

RowShare is updated on average every three weeks, with a mix of new features, enhancements and fixes. Sometimes there is nothing really noticeable, sometimes much more.

You asked, we listened. We are proud to announce that we made it!One of the most requested features: RowShare-Zapier integration.RowShare now connects to 5,000+ apps through Zapier, a platform that connect apps together to help you create workflow automation. As an online Collaborative Table who lets each user see and edit relevant rows, and also include pictures and attachments easily, RowShare integrations with other apps will increase your productivity.

RowShare tables can be created from our catalog, from a blank page or by importing Excel spreadsheets.If you import an Excel file, you will get a RowShare table for each tab of your Excel file. Your Excel tabs should only contain well formatted tables, no additional information around your table. Merged cells are not supported either.

Ever wondered how to insert dates in Excel, specifically to track the last modification date in your cells? Keeping track of the last modified date in Excel can simplify your work and help you stay organized. Imagine you maintain an employee directory—people get hired, transfer to different branches, and so on. You use Excel to centralize all this information, including hiring dates, positions, office locations, and more.

Do you ever need to insert files into Excel to share more detailed information with your co-workers? Whether it's inserting PDFs or Word documents, it seems simple enough: just click on Insert, Text, Object, choose your file, and voilà! But then what? Your file ends up floating around your spreadsheet, not anchored to a specific cell. To sort or move it along with the rest of your data, what you really need is to place it within a single cell. So, how can you do this? Not to mention the exponentional size of your spreadsheet.

Do you sometimes wonder how to share a Microsoft Excel file with different people without letting everyone see all the data? Maybe each row in your Excel file contains sensitive information, and you want each person to see only the rows that concern them.Imagine you're a teacher recording student grades in Excel, with the students' grades listed in a column. You don’t want each student to see the grades of others, so you need to share your Excel file in a way that allows each student to view only their own grade (their own row). In this scenario, each row must correspond to a single student.

When working with in Microsoft Excel multiple people, do you ever find the need to hide certain columns to prevent others from viewing sensitive information? For instance, you might want to conceal salary details in a list of employees. But what if you don't just want to hide the information visually? What if you need to completely restrict access to it? Or share it just to some users?

Our team never stops improving RowShare, thanks to the valuable suggestions of RowShare users! Here are some awesome new features put together by our team this September. Enjoy!

Whether you own an income property, manage a sales team, or work as a contractor, your job might involve regularly generating contracts. The classic approach is time-consuming and error prone: exchanging emails until you have all the correct information, then finding all of those details and manually inputing it into a Word document template, ideally with the latest version of the template.

We have a habit of saying that RowShare is a collaborative table and not a spreadsheet. But… what do we mean by “collaborative table”?A table is the most natural interface for managing information. It’s just a set of rows and columns that everyone is familiar with. But you might say that this is also the case for Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets.

As many of you know, RowShare column types are organized using categories (Numbers, Text, Lists of choice…). Today let’s focus on the Row category. You might ask yourself, “What does Row mean here?”. The answer is simple. These column types display additional information about your rows. Such information is automatically set, and you can’t change it manually.
