Intuitive Drag-and-Drop App Builder with Powerful Integrations and Automation
Reviewed on Mar 27, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
In my day-to-day usage, Zoho Creator makes it very easy to build and manage custom applications using its intuitive drag-and-drop UI, while still allowing flexibility through Deluge scripting for more complex logic. I regularly use it to create forms, automate workflows, and integrate data across systems. The platform performs reliably as apps scale, integrates well with Zoho apps and APIs, and is cost-effective for the value it provides. Support and onboarding are helpful, and features like automation and AI-driven insights further improve productivity.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Zoho Creator is powerful, there are a few limitations I’ve noticed in my usage. UI customization can feel restrictive when trying to build more modern or highly customized designs. Deluge scripting has a learning curve and is not as flexible as full programming languages. Performance can slow down slightly with very large datasets or complex workflows. Also, integrations outside the Zoho ecosystem sometimes require extra effort, and debugging or error handling could be more transparent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my daily work, Zoho Creator helps me replace manual tracking and Excel-based processes by building centralized applications for managing workflows, data, and reporting. I use it to automate approvals, standardize processes, and connect different systems, which reduces errors and saves time. It also allows me to quickly adapt to changing business requirements without long development cycles, helping me deliver solutions faster and improve overall efficiency and decision-making.

What do you like best about the product?
I like Zoho Creator because it's easy to create adaptive solutions to our specific needs. Even though I'm not an IT person, I can create fields and reports on my own.
What do you dislike about the product?
Facilitating connections between fields and reports without programming is challenging. It takes a lot of internal effort to understand our needs and plan solutions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Zoho Creator to manage time entry, expenses, vendor invoices, and client billing. It's easy to create adaptive solutions for our needs, and I can create fields and reports independently, even without an IT background.
