Coda Reviews & Product Details

It is really good how it combines document editing, website design and database. Really useful for our NGO! Thank you very much for the Non-profit discount too!

There are some minor features which are not built in YET! But looking at the community it is really growing fast and developers are really understanding the needs of the users!

Internal platform for the staff to pull in tables, simpler internal forms, and interconnect different data within the organisation.

It's super easy to create a document with structure and purpose that is easy for the entire team to navigate and interact with.

I'm not great at creating formulas, so creating documents with more complex formula needs can be challenging. However, the Coda team is super responsible and helpful when I need support.

We have our team's "hub" in Coda. It provides us with a space for async updates, tracking our OKRs, project pages, and more.

The customization of tables, formulas and the integration with another tools, like Slack, Google Mail, Calendar, Drive, Spotify.

Heavy documents get some lag, but nothing critical to the workflow.

Tracking of multiple tasks, mostly repetitive. Follow up on coworkers' progress and visualization of status with Gantt. Performance has not increased, but it is a more organized workflow.

The Coda templates are incredibly useful.

Coda is most useful when the company replaces other docs with Coda. Makes collaboration more seamless.

Much much better docs and spreadsheets, and can quickly spin up doc templates from proven successful use cases

Coda has been instrumental in keeping our team organized and aligned towards our goals. At my company, we use coda as our global knowledge management space, career development hub, and team project planning. It's interactive and user-friendly!

We have not been able to integrate coda with slack and google packs due to privacy & security issues.

Organization, project planning, individual development

Its absolute and endless ability to customize and meet any need. Seriously - you can really meet any need.

Not as much functionality on Mobile App version and docs can grow slow without detailed work on optimizing formulas and doc schema

Collecting data and meeting legal timelines for students with disabilities in public schools. The benefits have been mainly around never missing timelines thanks to automatic reminders and notifications, and automatic emailing to large amounts of people to collect data for student cases. Does much of my jobs redundant work automatically and gives me time to actually be with students.

Flexibility to create our own applications that we can use and share within the team

Would help to have more flexibility with design layout of apps when using Mobile

Built an in-house ERP system that is 100% catered to our needs

Coda makes it easy to record data and display it in a friendly way. Automation of common tasks is greatly simplified compared to spreadsheets and other tools.

Coda has a learning curve, due to its re-imagining of the spreadsheet interface. Some of the collaboration features require a more expensive plan.

We've replaced Google Sheets spreadsheets with something much more dedicated to working with data of many types. We have better insight into and automation of our data.

The feasibility, price, and templates that they offer

The logic when building tables can sometimes be a bit confusing/hard to figure out

It is a very easy way for our team to document processes across teams and within teams

Buttons. Using them together with tables opens up a ton of possibilities. With Coda's formula language, you can customize the actions they do, and you can turn pages of your doc into an interactive user interface. Among minor stuff, I implemented a Getting Things Done workflow, a budgeting app, a time tracker, and a Zettelkasten note collection in Coda, and they all heavily rely on buttons. From a personal user perspective, this feature sets Coda apart from its competitors.

More flexible reminder functionality. I'd love to be able to just create a date anywhere in my doc and set a reminder for that at the same time in the same place. Have to mention that you can work around the lack of such feature using Coda awesome Automation feature.

I use Coda for my entire GTD workflow, for time tracking, budgeting (using YNAB's methodology), note taking. I also collect links in a Coda table (and link them to GTD Projects, Ideas, or notes), and I have an interactive shopping list. I use Coda's API with IOS Shortcuts to send Inbox items to my GTD workspace, log transactions for my budgeting, and update my shopping list. So Coda helps me stay focused and on top of my things.
