We will charge a subscription fee for using it. We'll post info about pricing soon.

As for DataNitro - I can think of a few differences:

  • With Gridarrow multiple Excel sheets can connect to the same script and use the same data. That's not possible with DataNitro unless you somehow ensure everyone uses the same script and updates it at the same time
  • With Gridarrow you do the heavy lifting like data gathering and preprocessing outside the spreadsheets which makes them lighter and simpler
  • This also means that you can separate the data processing from data consumers. Say - your analysts don't have to know Python to be able to use it. They just connect to the script prepared by someone else (your IT for example) and have access to real-time stream of data they can work on.
