Earlier I did a review on some new websites and I told you I would do a larger review on this website, Zoho: DB & Reports. We'll my dad, who spends hours on the computer making charts, graphs, and spreadsheets, looked at the site and gave it his once over. This is what he thought of it.
Pros :
Easy to learn if you've used spreadsheets/databases before
Easy import from Excel to Zoho, and it gives you some choices
Easy creation of new database from scratch
Free
Cons :
Not very sophisticated. Excel and Access have way more functionality
Imported data was done with bogus warnings, and totals dropped
Looks untidy eg. dollars show on the left rather than right
You have to enter a character every cell before getting the drop down options
No auto complete
Your data could perhaps be hacked more easily than Excel

Apart from that I came up with a couple of stuff too. It has a nice looking interface that isn't too wild but not too simple making it more pleasing on your eyes and letting you get work done more. A neat option is you can make databases public for other people to see. Also, all the information is neatly organized with Recent Items on a sidebar to the left and a list of your databases right below your options. Overall, it won't replace your Excel software but if you're working on a foreign computer or you need to transfer over databases without the need of a USB, then this is the perfect site.
