EtherCalc – web spreadsheet

Last Updated on July 10, 2021

EtherCalc is a web spreadsheet that’s designed to let you work remotely and collaborate with others. It’s the spreadsheet equivalent of a wiki document, without logins and without editing locks. People can collaborate on a spreadsheet-like page simultaneously. It’s sort of a Google Sheets alternative, open source style.

Your data is saved on the web, and people can edit the same document at the same time. Everybody’s changes are instantly reflected on all screens.

Work together on inventories, survey forms, list management, brainstorming sessions and more!

EtherCalc is free and open source software.

Features include:

• Many standard desktop spreadsheet features are support including formatting cells, functions, and more.
• Comment tab – which lets you ask questions to others involved in the spreadsheet.
• Create forms.
• Export your calc in CSV or XLSX format.
• Uses randomly generated URLs.
• Cross-platform support – runs on Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Windows.
