The short version

  • Only Rows has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Beautiful.ai enterprise pricing requires contacting sales; Rows refresh frequency is the metered resource, so the free plan refreshes manually only and daily automation begins on the paid tier, which means the automatic reporting that justifies the tool is exactly what the free plan withholds.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 30 August 2026.

What people use each for

Rows

  • A weekly marketing report that pulls analytics, advertising and CRM figures into one refreshing sheet instead of three manual exports.not Beautiful.ai
  • Agency client dashboards shared as a page, without handing over access to the underlying accounts.not Beautiful.ai
  • Enriching a list of companies or contacts from inside the sheet rather than through a separate tool and a re-import.not Beautiful.ai
  • A small team that needs live numbers in a familiar grid and has nobody available to build a proper reporting stack.not Beautiful.ai

Where each one falls short

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

Beautiful.ai

  • Enterprise pricing requires contacting sales
  • Annual commitment for Pro plan; annual subscriptions non-refundable after 24 hours
  • Monthly subscriptions are non-refundable

Rows

  • Refresh frequency is the metered resource, so the free plan refreshes manually only and daily automation begins on the paid tier, which means the automatic reporting that justifies the tool is exactly what the free plan withholds.
  • Exports carry values rather than connections, so a downloaded file from Rows is a dead snapshot and anything you built has to be reconstructed from scratch elsewhere, which makes recurring reports quietly expensive to move.
  • Guests are capped by tier at three on free and ten on the entry plan, so sharing a report with a client's team or a group of stakeholders pushes you up a tier for people who only ever look at a page.
  • It is not Excel or Google Sheets, so the function library, add-ins, pivot behaviour, scripting and offline files people rely on are not all present, and it works as a reporting surface rather than as an organisation's general spreadsheet.
  • The Pro tier adds a fixed monthly platform charge on top of the per-user price, so moving from daily to intra-day refresh, or from ten guests to a real audience, is a step change in cost rather than an increment.
