Lionel Coste is an IT consultant and a Google Apps trainer. Since 2003, he has been living in Réunion, and has founded Absalon, an online website, with his associate. This platform has been created to list the amazing apartments that he owns in Réunion.
On Absalon, he manages the reservations of these flats which are rented to tourists for short stays. Whether you are looking for some holidays in a peaceful, charming and sunny destination, or just want to spend some time in family or share cool activities with friends, you will always find the perfect location in Réunion with Lionel’s platform!
As a computer science teacher, Lionel has been using Awesome Table almost since its creation. For instance, he is working on small academic projects using Awesome Table with students from Réunion to help them get started with this tool.
But that's not all! He also uses Awesome Table to display his apartments in Réunion into a nicely-formatted table. Initially built for the demo of Awesome Table from our website, Absalon shows you the perfect example of how this view can be embedded in your website.
'I love Awesome Table, because my clients can have a look at my offers at a glance [...]'
‘I love Awesome Table, because my clients can have a look at my offers at a glance, and they can filter the table depending on their specific needs. It’s also very easy to configure, thanks to your templating options. I can’t image my website without your application!’.

'It’s definitely the best tool to display data, [...] for the simplicity of its configuration, and the user-friendly interface.’
But Awesome Table was not the first application that Lionel considered and used to display his data on Absalon: ‘Before, I was using Microsoft FrontPage, but this product has been discontinued and was quite a pain to set up. And I had to pay for it … I also considered building tables in HTML code as a second option. But you may know that tables in website are now somehow quite prehistoric!’.
However, none of these options were satisfying to Lionel ; after some discussions with us, he was finally convinced by our product: ‘And I wanted to offer something visually modern and good-looking to my customers. So I switched to Awesome Table, which is convenient, free and so easy to use compared to other similar tools. A super great deal!’.
With Awesome Table, people could easily filter the flats of their dreams. ‘For example, I added a little tuba icon next to WI-FI and car park, to indicate that you can do snorkeling on the wonderful lagoon of Réunion. This required very basic CSS knowledge, and I could add it easily into my Awesome Table spreadsheet’.
Although this application was not the first one considered, it finally won Lionel’s heart. ‘Since Awesome Table has been created, I witnessed how this project evolved. I am now amazed by all the new features that have been implemented so far. It’s definitely the best tool to display data, and I would recommend it to all my friends for the simplicity of its configuration, and the user-friendly interface.’
Thank you to Lionel Coste, Director of Absalon, for giving us his feedback!
