An online pivot table that does not fall over at scale

You already know how to pivot data — the problem is that the spreadsheet stops cooperating once the file gets big, the source changes, or someone else needs to refresh it. Easy Pivot keeps the drag-and-drop pivot workflow, and runs it as an online pivot table over your real data source, so the numbers are live and the row count is not your problem.

Why teams go looking for this

The file got too big

Spreadsheet pivot tables degrade sharply past a few hundred thousand rows, and the ceiling is a hard 1,048,576 rows per sheet. Past that, the tool stops being an option.

The numbers are stale on arrival

A pivot table exported to a file is a snapshot. By the time it reaches the meeting, the source has moved on and nobody can tell which version they are reading.

Only one person can refresh it

A pivot table that lives on someone laptop cannot be shared, scheduled or audited. The whole team queues behind whoever owns the file.

What you get

Drag-and-drop pivot builder

Drag dimensions to rows and columns, measures to the data area, and get a cross table immediately. The interaction is the one you already know from a spreadsheet.

No spreadsheet row ceiling

Pivot computation runs against your data source rather than in the browser tab, so the practical limit is the source, not 1,048,576 rows.

Live, not exported

The pivot table reads the source on open. No export step, no stale file, no ambiguity about which version is current.

Subtotals and time intelligence

Row and column subtotals, grand totals, YoY, MoM, and row and column ratios — computed by the pivot engine rather than by hand in extra columns.

Calculated fields and LOD

Derive new fields from existing ones, and use Level of Detail expressions when a measure needs a fixed granularity independent of the chart dimensions.

Share the pivot, not a file

Send a link, schedule an email, or embed the pivot table in another application. Permissions decide who sees which rows.

What teams use it for

Cross-tab reporting

Product by region by month, with subtotals, conditional formatting and drill-down into the detail rows behind any cell.

Year-over-year analysis

Compare any measure against the same period last year without building a second table and a VLOOKUP to join them.

Replacing a shared spreadsheet

Move the monthly workbook that three people maintain into one live pivot table that everyone reads from the same definition.

Common questions

How large a dataset can an online pivot table handle?

The practical limit is your data source rather than the tool. Because pivot computation is pushed to the source instead of loaded into a browser tab, Easy Pivot is not bound by the spreadsheet ceiling of 1,048,576 rows per sheet.

Is it the same as an Excel pivot table?

The interaction is deliberately similar — dimensions to rows and columns, measures to the data area. The differences are that it runs on live data sources rather than a file, it is shareable and schedulable, and it is not capped by spreadsheet size limits.

Can I use it on an Excel or CSV file?

Yes. Text files, Excel workbooks and CSV files are supported as data sources, alongside relational databases, Elasticsearch and HTTP APIs. You get the same pivot builder either way.

Does it support calculated fields?

Yes. Calculated columns derive new fields from existing ones at query time, and Level of Detail (LOD) expressions let a measure be computed at a fixed granularity regardless of the dimensions in the pivot table.

Can I share a pivot table with someone who does not have an account?

You can publish and embed pivot tables and dashboards, with share-ID or token authentication for embedded use. Access still goes through the platform permission model rather than a public link.
