Big fan of Airtable. We use it at Weekend Fund to manage our CRM of founders, LPs, etc. and pipeline of companies we're speaking with. There are purpose-built CRMs for similar use cases but I like that Airtable is generalized and flexible to adapt to our needs. It also has several integrations that trigger automations (via Zapier) for various workflows.

My overall experience with Softr has been very positive. As someone with limited coding knowledge, I found the platform to be user-friendly and intuitive. The drag-and-drop interface made it easy for me to create custom websites and web applications without the need for any programming skills. I particularly appreciated the pre-built templates and design elements, which enabled me to quickly create a professional-looking website. The platform also offered various features that helped to simplify the website development process. I was able to easily integrate third-party services and customize my website's functionality using the built-in widgets and plugins. The SEO optimization tools were also helpful in improving my website's visibility in search engines.

Very easy to use and get set up. The team there is also more than willing to help tackle tricky configuration edge cases (thanks for the multi-environment support!!!). App development within Superblocks is very straightforward -- reminiscent of the best parts of developing Windows desktop applications in Visual Basic or Delphi: just drag, drop, and link actions to functions and queries. The support for various scripting languages for transforming data is huge as well. Building out a complex tool that merges data from several different sources can be a huge pain in our system internally, but once your data sources are connected, it's very easy in Superblocks. Highly recommend this tool for teams with problems that could be solved by internal apps leveraging this data fusion.

I kept hitting platform limitations with other no/low-code solutions until I found Appsmith! It's the perfect balance of a no-code UI editor, and low-code (JavaScript) to transform data and add business logic.

I love Directus! I've been working with it for nearly a year and a half now, and I don't plan to use anything else anytime soon. I actively contribute to the system because I love what they're doing, I love that it's free, and I love the community. Directus cloud takes the amazing product the team has built and pushes it one step further. It's probably the least restrictive web-based data management system you'll find, and being able to run up an instance in a matter of minutes makes things so much easier when you just need to test something small. Of course, no software is perfect. Directus has its flaws, its bugs, but the team works swift and diligently to fix what's broken and keep everything running smoothly. It's a growing product, adding new features, fixes, and improvements every week. They listen to the needs of their community and cater the app to the people who actually use it. But you don't need to take my word for it. You can literally sign up for Directus Cloud and test it out in less than 5 minutes, without any payment information at all. Maybe it's not for you, that's okay. What's great is they give you the tools to quickly figure that out for yourself. So why not give it a shot?

I originally started with 3 Low-Code Solutions for our application: 1) Retool 2) Appsmith 3) UI.Bakery Myself personally, I created the application in literally all 3 before choosing my favorite. Reasons for my selection: 1) Price...clear and simple...no price per user, no price per database call, etc...the competitors are VERY quick to hide these details. 2) UI...we presented our demo to quite a few people, and UI Bakery stood out as the clear winner 3) Customer Support...I have never quite met a company that is SO engaged. The chat window is INSTANT. Meeting requests are very fast and often the next day 4) This tool can be used for simple applications or complicated ones (such as mine with heavy Javascript coding). It really covers it all.

I work for a startup called Fernish. We used Internal to rebuild our internal admin tools, which were originally built with the Administrate gem for rails. Our version of administrate was deprecated so we took the opportunity to rebuild our admin tools with Internal. The killer feature for us was role-based permissions. Internal makes it super easy to configure permissions for our admin users. This was a feature we didn't have with our previous Administrate solution. Internal is now part of our entire development lifecycle. Internal communicates with our system via API (or an HTTP Source in Internal). We're also able to connect our review apps, staging, and production environments to internal. As a frontend engineer that has built multiple admin tools in the past, I originally thought Internal was not necessary, but I have since changed my mind. Internal is a lot less work than hand-rolling a solution on our own.

As a marketing agency owner I really like this product. I have always liked spreadsheet but missed some advanced options like having different views for my teams, clients & projects which I can easily do it with Stackby's views & advanced sort & filter options. Stackby has also helped me in making client reporting easy with its API function. Now I can report all major metrics of my campaigns in a single click which my team used to do manually earlier. Overall I am totally satisfied with product & their awesome support.

Awesome product ! Simple and efficient for a young startup to develop its back-office and customize it and automate all actions for internal flow.

❤️ Love Archbee for what it does and how well it works. Dragos is always open for input was very helpful and responsive when needed. Congrats on what he achieved and all the best for the future. Highly recommend.

This tool has helped us (FeatBit.co) to provide a free and powerful feature flag management service to our customers. Our customers use our open API (with permission access token) and Illa to build an internal entitlement management tool for their business team. This allows their customer success team to release different features to their different customers without redeployment and the need for an engineering team.

Surprisingly it provides features that give you a huge amount of flexibility and allow your apps to be as complex as they need to be, but somehow still allows you to keep things simple and give you a sense of control and simplicity. I've tested several other no-code tools that either give you a lot of features but make it really hard to maintain or deploy; or give you almost no flexibility and would only work for very simple things. Jetadmin proves a great tool for power users... Something I'd improve, however, is support. It is a bit slow although they seem attentive. Pricing may be another concern. If you want to take advantage of everything that Jetadmin offers (and what truly makes it shine, such as custom SQL queries), be prepared to pay a little more. In my case this is not an issue, but just so you know. To be honest: compared to other no-code platforms, it isn't really that expensive. I've read other reviews and I think some people miss the point of no-code tools. They belive that no-code means like ChatGPT prompting: just do this and that, etc... The truth is that you're still better off learning a bit about what is expected from X/Y software so based on a plan you're able to outline with precision and certainty. Don't 'build an app' if you don't really know what you want and what you need. For example, do you really need a no-code platform? ... With Jet Admin we had basically zero issues to deploy our app and in less than one week we were already in production, and our community has over 150K users that will soon start using our Jet Admin app; some of them already are.
