Description

Easy CSV Editor is one of the best editors for CSV and TSV files you'll find on the market. In a clean and user-friendly interface it offers simplicity and flexibility to edit both small and large documents. The app is built entirely using the native technologies provided by Apple for the macOS and seamlessly integrated in the environment. That's why you'll feel right at home from the moment you open the app. We greatly value your privacy, so everything you do in the app is done locally, nothing leaves your computer. No analytics, no servers, no phoning home. You can even use the app when you have no internet connection. # Core Features • Open, create, edit & save CSV files even if they are not properly formatted, like don't have the same number of fields in each row • Data preservation - your data remains unchanged, just like you expect, including numbers with leading zeroes • Auto-detect CSV format, while providing you the option to adjust the detected parameters • Progress indicator along with a time estimate when loading huge files • Visualize & change the properties of an opened CSV document • Detect CSV comment lines & treat them differently • Easily navigate in the document using well established shortcuts (check "Help -> Keyboard Shortcuts" for all of them) • Copy, cut or clear a group of cells or entire rows or columns • Set as header rows up to 10 rows & up to 10 columns as header columns. Choose if they stay frozen or not. • Resize rows & columns so you can easily see the whole content of the cells • Hide rows & columns • Drag & move entire columns or rows • Autofill by dragging the right corner of the selected cells • Move cells by dragging the selection's margins • Shuffle selected cells by row • Text transformations for the selected cells: trim, enclose, HTML escape/unescape & more • Fill the selected cells using text of your choice • Find duplicate or unique data • Merge or split the selected cells or columns • Split documents by number of rows or document size • Status bar at the bottom of the window, showing various statistics & calculations • A big, resizable, text box located above the status bar showing the content of selected cell. You can edit the text in this box, too. • Full support for Undo & Redo • Print • Support for tabs • Dark mode • A lot of options available in the Preferences to make the app look & behave exactly the way you want # Data Detection & Reformatting • Auto-detect numbers & dates • Change the format of dates & numbers # Column Explorer • Provides a compact interface which lets you explore & manage the columns from the document in a very easy & intuitive way • Drill down to get more statistics for those columns which are of interest to you # Filter • Focus on the very specific data that you want to check by using the powerful filtering capabilities existing in the app • Filter by multiple columns & choose from the many rules which are available • Save & (re)load the filter rules - handy when you want to apply them to multiple files with the same structure # Sort • Sort the entire document or selected rows or just specific cells • Fine tune the sorting by including multiple columns # Find & Replace • Find and replace text using a familiar, yet powerful, interface • For power users there's support for ICU regular expressions (both for find & for replace) but there's also support to search for built in patterns (i.e. email addresses, phone numbers or web addresses) • Choose where to search: in the entire document or specific columns, rows or cells # Import & Export • Export CSV as: Excel files, Markdown, HTML, XML, JSON, PLIST • Import CSV from: Excel files, XML sources (local files or remote URLs), RSS feeds, JSON data, HTML tables in web pages, tables in (Multi)Markdown files, .vcard files, macOS' Contacts • Import & Export is available as an in-app purchase, but a trial is available for free For more info & screenshots please visit https://vdt-labs.com/easy-csv-editor

    A major problem with most programs that are for viewing and editing .csv files is they make assumptions about data in the file for the purpose of presentation. Things like rounding numbers, re-formatting dates, assuming things are phone numbers when they're not. Easy CSV editor more-or-less presents your data completely unmodified from the source file, with the exception of emails becoming links and the settings you put in for how to read the file. This makes it far easier to work with the data when you're trying to build processes that rely on the data being unmodified.
  • Great app! Handles huge files

    Currently working with a 2.2GB file. Takes time to open, but handles perfectly after. Full of great features. Would highly recommend.
  • Infinitely more elegant than Excel

    As other reviewers have said, this app is substantially faster and more streamlined for working with CSV files than Excel. It has tons of easy functions for quickly filtering and subsetting and sorting your dataset. I set all CSV files to automatically open in this app.
  • Great Affordable CSV Tool

    Lightweight, affordable, flexible and powerful, very useful formating csv files, I love the fact that it exports to json and few other nice extra features
  • MUST Have Tool

    Tired of Excel ruining your data in unexpected ways? Still want a capable, powerful, useful editor that is more than just a text editor? This is your solution! If you work with data and need a tool that has the power of excel but works natively in text format, stop looking and get this app. Viewing, formatting, searching, replacing, transforming, moving columns, delimiter and formatting controls - there is nothing missing here. It has a clean and intuitive UI, super easy to use, powerful but simple. I use it frequently whenever I need to edit tabular style data without destroying it accidently.
  • Pretty Good, Just One Nitpick

    I'm happy I got this app. One thing I would like to see it do better: when you load a CSV that has values in columns wrapped in quotation marks like "01234", I would like that representation to be used when saving the file again. (The current version saves every value in such columns as 01234 without the quotes.) This is super annoying, because I'm now too afraid to make small quick edits using this tool, but instead I go back to a plain text editor like emacs to do the job.
  • Great Tool

    Fast, smart, and easy to use. Really makes it easier to deal with table data. I don't need to wait and open up Excel. Works great with Numbers as well.
  • If you deal with CSV data, GET THIS!

    I have to work with CSV files from more sources than I can count in preparing bulk mailings. There's nothing else like it, and there's nothing like it anywhere other than the Mac. I've used this for every kind of analysis, troubleshooting, data cleaning, database hacking—everything you can imagine a CSV can be used for. This program chews through massive files like no other. There are NO unexpected gotchas such as spreadsheet programs can present when they make assumptions about data types and conversion. If I could give this six stars, I'd give it another just for the ease of using the Transpose command on enormous data files. Yes, you have to wait for a gigabyte to be transposed, but you'll get a progress report and it WILL get done. And can you believe it? Scripting! Command-line integration! And then go buy their counterparts for JSON and PLISTs in the "Essential Editors Bundle."
