Rows offers 50+ native integrations. Ajelix currently provides 5+ data connectors but excels at working with your existing files, which likely already connect to your business systems. Ajelix prioritizes depth of analysis over quantity of connectors.
Ajelix supports files up to 1GB with unified asset management. Rows limits uploads to 100MB per file. For professionals working with large datasets, Ajelix offers significantly more capacity.
No. Ajelix works within your existing Excel workflow. Rows requires migrating to their spreadsheet interface, which involves a learning curve and process changes.
Ajelix’s AI chat is fine-tuned for business analysis, automatically generating insights, narratives, and key takeaways. Rows’ AI Analyst helps inside the spreadsheet with formulas and charts, but leaves interpretation to you.
Ajelix lets you deploy interactive web apps that anyone can use without a license. Rows requires stakeholders to access the spreadsheet platform, limiting external sharing.
