Great took
What do you like best about the product?
Retool is very efficient and it organizes the information I need pretty well.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes longer than I want it to to generate the information that I need. I also don't love that a new window pops up when I'm generating my info.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Retool is helping generate a list that would otherwise and manually take a very long time to put together.
Turning Support Into Technical Experts
What do you like best about the product?
Creating on the fly internal tools that integrates with every aspect of our infrastructure. This helps empower our support users and anyone else to resolve our clients' issues. And it speeds up the development process of internal tools. It is used daily in all over our operations to support the support team as a tech expert and SME.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is designed for engineers and the permissions, controls, and organization can be overwhelming for users or non-tech savvy users to build on their own.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping build rapidly deployed internal tools in the span of minutes for non-technical users.
Great Tool For Making Internal Tools
What do you like best about the product?

- Easy to use drag and drop (and customizable) components
- Easy to integrate code into components
- Integrated Postgres database, charts, and nifty features
- Community is awesome
- New features come out all the time

What do you dislike about the product?
The IDE for programming (Javascript, SQL, Python) lacks many features. It isn't able to catch simple bugs like infinite loops, and there are no keyboard shortcuts (from what I can tell). VS Code integration is an option but it did not work for me, so I ended up having to copy paste changes in every time -- not fun.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allowing user-friendly and modern-looking tools to be made quickly.
Remarkable software, new feature wish-list
What do you like best about the product?
Retool fits our internal tooling requirements perfectly. We have a large and growing list of projects that can be customized with principles of secure design and modularity.
What do you dislike about the product?
Retool lacks in a significant department- the administration of it. Orchestrating users, linking with SCIM, granular controls, logging for compliance purposes and a dashboard to do all of these inside of retool is missing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Internal and custom tooling that is not available to external users.
Great customer support and features
What do you like best about the product?
Customer support team is well equiped and resolves the doubts in a timely manner. The platform is easy to use and integrate with new features. It helped me implement the tools easily and good for frequent use. I got good reviews from the customer for the app that I developed in Retool.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I switch to different window while working on Retool and come back to Retool, I feel the app edit mode is not responsive sometimes. Overall its a good tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Retool helps in solving the app issues by enabling the low code development. It helps me to quick development.
Highly Customizable Platform for Building Internal (and some external) Tools
What do you like best about the product?
Retool makes building internal tools incredibly efficient by offering a wide range of pre-built components and an intuitive drag-and-drop interface. Its flexibility with JavaScript and SQL lets us create customized applications without needing extensive engineering resources. The platform's ability to connect to virtually any database or API is a huge plus, allowing us to centralize data and functionality in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
If there was more styling ability, it would open retool up to more external use cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Retool has streamlined our internal workflows by allowing us to build custom dashboards, management systems, and data visualizations quickly. We've automated several manual processes, saving time and reducing the need for multiple software tools. The ability to update and customize applications in real-time has empowered our team to iterate and improve solutions as we scale.
Outstanding platform without outstanding capabilities.
What do you like best about the product?
The ease with which to build on ideas and creativity. Simplest solution to go from idea to production. If you have an idea, very high likelihood it can be created in retool.
What do you dislike about the product?
The underlying unit testing is challenging. Being able to write a new module and test it with a set of test data is hard. Additionally, versioning code isn't very effective.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fast development windows.

What do you dislike about the product?
I like the pricing model until you get to discuss enterprise pricing. There is not enough justification for us to take the plunge and take on that kind of expense. I also feel that the enterprise pricing was a complete shocker and adds quite a bit to your final price.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can get right into the SQL without delays in user interface design/development.
Impressive
What do you like best about the product?
Very user friendly, constantly improving, lot of versatility, great API integration, daily usage, easy to deploy tools
What do you dislike about the product?
Hard to find help on some things. Not a ton of guidance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data analysis and reporting
Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Retool for our company for a little over 1.5 years, and I think it's hands-down the best application to use when trying to build no-code or low-code tools for internal use. We've been able to bring about a large amount of tools for our various platforms, and have also had a really easy time with setting up the integrations with our platforms. The implementation process was simple and precise, and Retool has become the system that our team uses tools from daily.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like some guidance on Javascript building as we're working on low-code projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Retool solves a number of use cases, including but not limited to designing reports for users that don't have access to the database, making changes to the database without needing access, and limiting the amount of database users for compliance reasons.
