The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Baserow the free tier is capped at 3,000 rows and 2GB of storage per workspace; WeWeb there is no database, authentication provider or server-side logic layer, so a WeWeb project is always at least two subscriptions and the total cost is never the price on the pricing page.
  • They diverge on capability: Baserow covers Database tables, WeWeb covers Backend agnostic.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 30 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Baserow

  • The free tier is capped at 3,000 rows and 2GB of storage per workspace
  • Kanban, calendar and survey views need Premium at $10 per user per month billed yearly
  • Role-based permissions, audit logs and SSO require Premium or higher
  • Row limits are per workspace rather than per table, so splitting data across bases does not raise the ceiling
  • Automation runs are metered as credits, 2,000 a month on free

WeWeb

  • There is no database, authentication provider or server-side logic layer, so a WeWeb project is always at least two subscriptions and the total cost is never the price on the pricing page.
  • Self-hosting and the more useful delivery options sit on higher tiers, so on entry plans you are hosting with WeWeb and depending on its uptime for a production application.
  • The learning curve is closer to a front-end framework than to a drag and drop builder; collections, bindings and state assume you understand how data flows through an interface, which defeats non-technical buyers.
  • Output is web only. There is no native mobile build, so anything that must appear in the App Store needs a wrapper or a different tool entirely.
  • It is a small European vendor competing against far larger platforms, so procurement teams that assess supplier viability, support depth and long-term roadmap will need convincing before signing.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Baserow's Free plan includes 3000 rows per workspace, 2 GB storage, 2000 automation credits monthly, and access to Grid, Form, and Gallery views. It supports up to 500 external app users and includes 65+ templates with no credit card required.

WeWeb: Do I need another product to use WeWeb?

Yes. It builds the front end only. You need a backend such as Supabase, an existing database or an API before the application does anything useful.

Baserow: What row and storage limits does Baserow provide by plan?

Free plan: 3000 rows and 2 GB storage; Premium plan: 50000 rows and 20 GB; Advanced plan: 250000 rows and 100 GB; Enterprise plan: 1000000 rows and 1 TB. All limits are per workspace.

Source
WeWeb: Can I host the app myself?

On the higher tiers, yes. That is one of the main reasons agencies choose it, because the delivered application can run without the vendor in the path.

Baserow: How much does Baserow Premium cost?

Baserow Premium costs $10 per user per month when billed annually, or $12 per month when billing monthly. Yearly billing provides better rates than monthly. Advanced plan costs $18/user/month annually or $22/month monthly.

Source
WeWeb: Is it suitable for someone who cannot code?

Less so than most no-code builders. You do not have to write code, but you do have to think like a front-end developer about state, collections and bindings.

Baserow: What are automation credit limits in Baserow?

Free plan provides 2000 monthly automation credits, Premium provides 100000 monthly credits, Advanced provides 500000 monthly credits, and Enterprise provides 2000000 monthly credits for workflow automation.
