Good tool/app

  • March 03, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to find the account and the transaction in question by having the download button available.
What do you dislike about the product?
None so far. The feedback is that I hope that Retool would like to have additional options in locating an account like CH first last name, email address, phone number, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
None at this time.

Great tool for building internal tools

  • March 01, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like using Retool to build UIs based on data from our database.
What do you dislike about the product?
Thus far, it hasn't been easy for me to utilize the rest endpoint that relies on pagination. Maybe I need to watch some tutorials or something, but I haven't figured it out yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had a problem where we needed to show non-developers a quick snapshot of our database. There are other tools other than Retool that allow this, but they don't have the option to also call APIs.


    Staffing and Recruiting

Excellent app for quickly getting things done

  • March 01, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Love the flexibility to create lots of different apps. The integrations with all the different third parties is really helpful. In other tools I had to map out the APIs for third parties. In Retool, the API already existed with hundreds of endpoints and the variables already mapped out so it made integration really easy and quick.
What do you dislike about the product?
Having a development background, it would be better to have more tools orientated to development of the javascript code
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quickly made small apps to solve simple business problems where they don't need full database access, but do need to update a few rows with some data, so we can restrict a db user to that and give them a functional user interfere to make it really simple and quick for them
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a go and you'll see how powerful and easy it is

Awesome! Best tool quickly create panels for internal teams

  • February 16, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Its usability, very easy to drag and drop some UI elements and integrate with APIs or databases. Very easy to use for new developers or for those with less coding experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only complaint I feel is the role management. No options to restrict access to panels based on roles within the internal team. Also, there is no way to group certain panels by functionality or team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating panels for internal teams. It's so easy to use that even people with no coding experience are able to spin up tools for their own with minimal inputs from devs. Also easy to maintain with its version management system

Perfect tool for rapid development of Internal Tools

  • February 15, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The various integrations, how easy it is to build new tools. The development is straightforward, and integration into Databases and other tools becomes very simple and can be done without the significant support of Software Engineers.
What do you dislike about the product?
The number of modules and queries become pretty hard to handle very quickly. It's missing features to help organize different elements of an application. Sutruuringing of modules and questions could be done better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Spending Engineering Resources on building internal management and Admin tools is a complex trade-off. Everyone knows it benefits internal processes in the long run, but it is harder to justify compared to customer requests and customer-facing features. So having a tool that significantly reduces the time required to build internal management and admin tools is a must-have. Retool is filling that perfectly.

What do you like best about the product?
It help me in every field that I have,Its very easy to use and I can easily acces everything, so easy to adapt the changes as well.overall it's agood experience
What do you dislike about the product?
It is very slow like takes so much time to load whenever I try to open a page it takes 2,3 seconds and then that page will open, it's very disappointed and takes a lot of time
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am in quality team and I check all the answers provided by the students and tutors in one page so it's very easy for me to analyse the performance of tutors by retool over its very nice experience
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend it as it is good

Easy and user friendly tool

  • February 08, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Open source code helps in easy coding and integration as per our requirements. We used it to enhance the KYC module internally, and it gave us miracles. Small size, fast, and reliable
What do you dislike about the product?
The backend data storage is linked to Sheets which is a significant dependency. It grows slow when the backend is full, which slows down the entire process related to it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used the tool as a backend for the KYC database and the front end for KYC decision-making. Multiple dashboards run parallelly at the same time helped the business grow, and we have moved to the latest version of the same

What do you like best about the product?
It's very intuitive and simply works perfectly right out of the box.
What do you dislike about the product?
I like it all. It would be nice to see a summary of things that don't match up or don't exist (from misspellings).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Interacting with Snowflake database data without having the end users needing to know SQL.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are a software developer, stop using antiquated tools and sign up for Retool

    Market Research

Perfect platform for startups rapidly building internal tools

  • January 12, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Retool is an insanely fast tool for rapidly prototyping new applications and deploying into production environments. 95+% of the components required are available and immediately work out of the box with minimal onboarding. The development interface is very intuitive. As a developer I found myself rarely needing to refer to docs.

Any startup quickly building applications or large organization re-thinking back-office utilities should consider Retool. I rarely write reviews; this is one of those cases where I have been so impressed by a product that I am going out my way to share.
What do you dislike about the product?
Performance could be improved. It's not a blocker, but there is additional query overhead that requires tuning.

Applications are not as snappy as a fully custom solution, especially for repetitive tasks that require data loading, e.g. quickly flagging results in a table with a checkbox. For our usage, this is an easy trade-off for the speed of application development and low maintenance requirements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to replace custom administrative tooling (React + Blueprint and Spring Boot) in a matter of days and quickly augment with new features. Development speed is easily 10x vs custom build.
