Cordango vs Airtable

Airtable is a brilliant way for a team to structure its lists. Companies outgrow it the day permissions get serious and base number twelve appears. Cordango turns those bases into real apps on one secure core.

FIG.01

The short version.

Where Airtable wins

For one team organising flexible data, Airtable is hard to beat.

  • FAST From idea to structured table in minutes
  • VIEW Grids, kanbans, calendars and interfaces on the same records
  • TPL A huge template gallery for team workflows
  • EASY Nobody needs training to add a row
Where Cordango wins

Cordango is what base twelve wishes it was: a real app, governed and connected.

  • RBAC Real roles and permissions, not base-level share links
  • CORE One company data model instead of a silo per team
  • LOG An audit trail over every change in every app
  • EU EU hosting for everyone, not an enterprise-tier add-on
