Nobody should pay to edit a thousand rows.

Conga Grid, the incumbent, publishes a list price of $18 per user per month, and its own documentation limits a view to 1,000 rows and a paste to 100 rows. Rowhouse has no license fee at any size, so its line stays at $0.

Free and deep: one product, of 15 compared

Each product’s list price against how many of the 30 compared capabilities it documents. The six paid grids list at $10 to $27.50 per user per month and document 23 to 27. The eight free and open-source products document 19 or fewer. Rowhouse is free and documents 26; Mashmatrix Sheet, at $18, documents 27.

Competitor values are each vendor’s own published documentation and price list, read 2026-10-06, 2026-10-07; nothing was installed or tested. Rowhouse’s are what is built and tested, and it is not installable yet. Free products with the same count sit a dot apart.

02 · Backed

And nobody should have to bet their list views on a side project.

The free grids for Salesforce are side projects, one-person projects and free tiers of something else. Rowhouse is given away by a company with a support organization, whose business is RevOps rather than grids — so there is no paid tier to hold back and no commercial reason to stop maintaining it.

03 · What it does

Edit Salesforce records like a spreadsheet

One component you place on an App, Record or Home page, configured on a tab in Salesforce, with no code.

Figure 3. The finished grid: grouped by stage in the picklist's order, a sum of amounts per stage and in total, overdue close dates in red, big deals in green, deals in negotiation tinted purple, with a purple bar at the left edge. Collapsed stages still count in the Total.
Figure 4. Related records under each row: open a row and its contacts and opportunities appear as tabs, each a full grid with its own Save bar.
Figure 5. Display rules: overdue close dates in red, this week’s in amber, big deals in green — each with a meaning in the Display Key.

The two things the rest of the product stands on

The cell editors

The field types Salesforce’s own data table cannot edit

Lookup, owner (user or queue), dependent picklist, multi-select picklist, time and long text all edit in the cell, in a box the width of the cell. Rich text stays read-only.

Configuration as metadata

Your grids deploy like the rest of your org

Every grid is Custom Metadata, authored on the Grid Admin tab or in Setup: built in a sandbox, moved in a change set, kept in source control, never overwritten by an upgrade.

How a Rowhouse grid is put together Six kinds of Custom Metadata record (Grid Configuration, Grid Columns, Grid Display Rules, Grid Filters, Grid Child Tables and Grid Actions) feed the Rowhouse Grid component on a Lightning page. The component serves your users, and reads and saves Salesforce records as each user, so object, field and sharing rules apply.

06 · Accessible to work with

Built for the keyboard and the screen reader

One Tab into the grid, one out; arrow keys move; type to edit, Enter or F2 to open a cell. Every cell is announced with its column, and every paste, undo and save is announced in words. A display rule’s meaning is read aloud, so no color carries meaning on its own. We could find no grid-first competitor that publishes an accessibility conformance report, a VPAT or evidence of screen-reader testing.

Free. Not freemium, not a trial, not a tier.

Install Rowhouse Grid

A managed package from Kugamon, namespace rowhouse, for Enterprise Edition and above, and Developer Edition, with their sandboxes. Choose where to install it.

Then

  1. Assign the Rowhouse Grid Admin permission set to whoever builds grids, and Rowhouse Grid User to everyone who uses them.
  2. Open the Rowhouse app from the App Launcher. Its Grid Guide tab walks you through your first grid.

Only if saving a grid is refused: if Rowhouse says Salesforce did not let it save the grid, turn on Deploy Metadata from Non-Certified Package Versions via Apex. In Setup, type Apex Settings in the Quick Find box. Leave it off otherwise: the orgs Rowhouse was tested in, a production org among them, saved without it.
