@bnhld I don't think it's more informal, I would say "den er grei" to my professors, boss and friends.
but I think MAYBE if you say "den er grei" you say okay to something that's already decided, and with "det er greit" you agree to something undecided, like a question. for example:
-vi møtes kl. 8 (we'll meet at 8)
-den er grei
-skal vi møtes kl. 8? (shall we meet at 8?)
-det er greit
but really, I wouldn't think about this. in either of my examples you can use both "det er greit" and "den er grei", and absolutely no one would even think about which alternative you chose.

"greit det" is better IMO
-skal vi møtes kl. 8?
-ja, greit det
-da møtes vi kl. 8, da? (it has already been suggested earlier that we meet at 8)
-ja, den er grei

yes, if we're making suggestions I would say "greit" or even "ja", just because it's shorter. but this varies from person to person like in any language
