Free Version

In addition to paid versions, Modern CSV has a free version. My goal in designing the free version was to make it functional and not just a de facto trial for the paid versions. Many users have used the free version for years. To quote one user talking about Modern CSV on Reddit:

I mean, I’m all for supporting software unless their free version is *exactly* what I need.

Goal accomplished.

Look at the video running on the home page. This is the video I use to give visitors a strong first impression of its capabilities. Most of the features demonstrated are in the free version:

Let’s go over the features and see which are free and which are paid:

Feature	Free/Paid	Notes
Remove Rows	Free	Works on multiple rows, may be non-adjacent.
Go to Cell	Free
Remove Selected Cells, Move Rest of Row Left	Paid
Insert Cells, Move Rest of Row Right	Paid
Drag Columns	Free	Select a column, hold shift, start dragging column label.
Duplicate Cell Contents Left	Free	The up, down, and right versions are free as well.
Multi-cell Edit	Free
Join Cells Horizontally	Paid
Add or Update ID Column	Paid
Column Sort	Free	Double click on the column label.

So 6 free to 4 paid. Free wins.

You can use the free version to manipulate your table in all sorts of ways: move, delete, duplicate, and insert multiple rows and columns at at time. There are no file size limitations and read-only mode works as well. You have access to all the themes and settings, so you can make the form and function fit your tastes.

If you find yourself wrestling with CSV files, give the free version of Modern CSV a try. It may be all you need.
