  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is very intuitive, you don't need too much programming knowledge to build dashboards.

Sometimes it is hard to find what you are looking for. The screen gets too crowded, I believe there should be a better way to organize things.

We use it for ticket management and to analyze ticket submissions. Also, we use different dashboards to see who is available in our app.

Simple and fast way to create UIs

  • April 08, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It has all the components needed to create a UI, both basic and advanced stuff. Also lots of customization options for each of these components.
What do you dislike about the product?
Exporting apps as static files and directly hosting them on our own
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can develop UIs much faster. We spend less time on developing UIs and more time on more features or more projects.

Ottimo per raccolta dati senza scrivere programmi

  • April 04, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ottimo tool per creare veloci e facili applicazioni senza avere particolari conoscenza di sviluppo software. Utile per poter integrare altre applicazione tramite API
What do you dislike about the product?
Se si vogliono realizzare applicazioni complesse con una sequenza di operazioni diventa un pò meno semplice e necessita di un'analisi di progetto più approfondita
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Utilizzo di tool web tramite chiamte API. Inserimento massivo di record da parte di utenti "base" e collegamento a tabelle di altri database.
Il tutto con risparmio di tempo e risorse.

Super handy tool to quickly design any web app

  • March 25, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There are a variety of data sources that can be used to integrate with the app. There are lots of visuals available that can be configured easily. Moreover, you can install this tool on your choice of Cloud.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be good if we can ad some programming components as well. Like a Python script.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are reading data from one data source, editing it on the UI & then saving it into target DB.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It can be used to quickly create a web app.

Powerful tool for all users!

  • March 21, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to quickly standup mini-apps to help our internal staff operate more efficiently. With Technical resources at a premium, the ability for a product manager to stand up to these apps has saved us money and time across the board.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes we are limited due to the in-bowser memory. Running some processes in bulk crashes the system so either it needs to be divided up into smaller runs or run through another application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We solve internal support problems and configuration. Allowing Retool to house apps to allow our staff to get to the information that may not have a UI wrapped around it or the ability to join multiple data sources together is key.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Identify a few apps you think you would use Retool for to start. Install a trial and just see how easy it is. The key with Retool is that you have to have the API's and database access and support to be successful.

Easy to use

  • March 16, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The diversity of drag and drop components and configurations offered for each covers almost all use cases.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it's hard to achieve the desired visual layout with the mouse, but the keyboard backup for precise positioning is helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Internal tools for a non-technical media publishing team. No direct access to the database is needed. No separate web app codebase or server management.

Retool is great to use and the documentation is pretty clear.

  • March 16, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I get suggestions on what to type for code. This helped me overcome the learning curve and made it easier to build things quickly. I have not used a competitor so I don't know how Retool would compare, but just in general good documentation that covers as many situations as possible is always the best.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more Javascript query examples. Unless if that example is the real only way to be able to use Retool with JS. I felt pretty confused on how to manipulate different aspects of my table with Javascript and still don't really know how to do much more than the example given.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As mentioned above the only problem is not knowing how to fully use the JS Queries. I want to run an API call on about 9000 rows of data, and the API takes a while. The only way I have it set up is that I have to wait till the whole query is done before I can repopulate my table with the results- which just feels very hacky. I think there is a better way to do it, but trying to find it was hard. The benefits I realize are how powerful the UI is. I love the fact that I can easily build out these widgets and the biggest benefit of Retool is the ability to just manipulate the data easily in a safe read-only ara. I know that's one of the core product offerings, but it's just nice.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you know SQL- helped me get up and running quickly. (Simple SQL statements are easy enough to learn though.)

Hit the ground running

  • March 07, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Sales and Ops Support has been the differentiator when compared to other competitor products.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing is a little confusing and I am a bit worried that I build something amazing but then it becomes to expensive to maintain with a big user base
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Bringing all my data in one place and then representing it in a way that allows my staff to improve their delivery
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Retool as a company have been great. With so many low code applications out there it's so hard to decide on which one. But their pre and after sales service has been amazing

easy interface and the different components offering high flexibility while building
What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes its complicated to understand how certain UX could be implemented through the available components
a guide with the most common approaches is nice to have
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
building in house tools to facilitate data services and products and honestly your software is a life saver when it comes to fast launch of a specific service.
