Zoho Analytics is an innovative software that allows users to build, migrate and manage their databases with the help of its intuitive drag and drop features. Zoho Creator is a database building platform that enables users to create custom enterprise applications without any prior coding experience or IT knowledge. With the launch of Zoho DB & Reports, we now have 3 services that handle structured data. So what's the difference between Zoho Sheet and Zoho DB? Zoho Sheet is a simple spreadsheet-like user interface that allows you to analyse your data using different views and charting tools.
It is a great tool for creating online databases. On the other hand, Zoho DB is a database building platform that provides users with SQL-level APIs, so they can build Zoho DB-backed applications in their own preferred language. It also allows users to automate business processes or workflows, analyse data in reports and collaborate with other stakeholders. Zoho Creator queries are primarily intended for application development, so they are not as sophisticated as what you can do with SQL.
With the Zoho Creator mobile app, you can add or edit data, and view reports in your app directly from your phone or tablet. This platform-neutral API allows you to integrate real-time data changes from your applications or databases into Zoho Analytics. The forms and applications you build in Zoho Creator share the same database, which means you can search and add information in all of them without duplication or additional integration. Initially the integration will focus on the data level, so data from your Creator application is automatically available in the DB, and eventually integration will also be provided at the GUI level, so your applications can embed a Reports tab extracted from Zoho DB.
Some of the features of Zoho DB will eventually make their way into Sheet, and it will be possible to move some of the structured data from Sheet to DB, but the two products retain their distinct core identity.
