NocoDB pricing
NocoDB publishes 6 tiers. Below is each one, what it adds over the tier beneath it, and where the ladder stops being worth climbing for most people.
As of 30 August 2026, NocoDB pricing is free across 6 published tiers. Figures are the vendor's list prices as recorded on this page's last check; the vendor's site is the final word.

NocoDB plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.

| Community (Self-Hosted) | Free | 3 | +$0/month, 3 more features |
| Plus | $12/month | 6 | +$12/month, 6 more features |
| Business | $24/month | 6 | +$12/month, 5 more features |
| Scale | $45/month | 6 | +$21/month, 6 more features |
| Enterprise | On request | 6 | Priced on request |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

People bring NocoDB in for self-hosting an open source alternative to a spreadsheet database, putting a spreadsheet interface over an existing postgres or mysql database, building internal tools on structured data with an api, team bases with per-field and per-table permissions on the paid tiers. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to NocoDB are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Spreadsheets
Too few spreadsheets tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.
| Tool | Entry price | Model | Rated | Head to head |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NocoDB (this page) | Free | freemium | - | |
| Google Sheets | Free | Free personally, bundled into paid Google Workspace for organisations | - | vs NocoDB |
| Numbers | Free | Free with Apple hardware, optional Apple Creator Studio subscription for AI features | - | vs NocoDB |
| Zoho Sheet | Free | Free standalone, bundled into paid Zoho Workplace for organisations | - | vs NocoDB |
| SeaTable | Free, then €7/month | Per user per month | - | vs NocoDB |
| Quadratic | Free, then $18/month | Per user per month | - | vs NocoDB |
| Sigma Computing | On request | quote | - | vs NocoDB |
Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the NocoDB badges page.
Before you pay for NocoDB
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 6 tiers between Free and On request, with the jump itemised above. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
NocoDB runs on cloud, self-hosted, docker, and is published by NocoDB of Global. The full record is on the NocoDB review, and the rest of the category is under best spreadsheets tools.
