We have been using TablePress for more than 10+ years. It's very easy to use yet very powerful. For a recent post with over 14k data records: "Index of Family Names taken from Barbados Maps between 1657 and 1847" we used server-side processing and it works wonderfully…. Without server-side processing it crashed our site! The support from Tobias is pretty amazing too. TablePress is an easy to use, very powerful table tool. The addition of server side processing makes it awesome.

Ein hilfreiches, leicht zu bedienendes Plugin. Sehr schön ist, dass man bestehende, "frei Hand" erstellte Tabellen relativ leicht importieren kann. Man muss seine Tabellen also beim Wechsel auf TablePress mit etwas Glück nicht komplett neu erstellen.

I've been using this to import Excel sheets. It's worked really well and provides a lot of options. The one time I couldn't get it to work, support identified the issue very quickly, which turned out to be a hidden problem in the spreadsheet I wanted to import. I will 100% turn to this plugin whenever I have tabular data to display.
