Our take
The spreadsheet counterpart to Etherpad, handy for real-time shared tables without a Google account in the way. Same blunt caveat applies and matters more with numbers: it is unencrypted, so the host sees your data, and license info is unclear here. Fine for collaborative, non-sensitive calculations on an instance you control; reach for an encrypted tool the moment the figures are private.
