Let's us avoid spending a lot of engineering resources on internal tooling
What do you like best about the product?
• Intuitive user experience.
• Extremely easy to build new applications for different use cases.
• Low-code, but with a ton of configurability. As an engineer, I don't find myself wishing I had more control. It's a good combination.
• Allows us to spin up reports for internal teams easily.
• Great, responsive customer support.

What do you dislike about the product?
• I wish there was an easier way to build a dynamic dashboard or landing page with apps that a user has access to and certain other components we might want to show on that page.
• I know that this is coming, but a github integration to see changes to apps in github.

Changed the way we analyzed and visualized our own data with Superblocks and Rockset
What do you like best about the product?
Ease and speed of use. With only a few clicks we were able to build out our integration to Rockset and begin to our customer and sales data in real-time. Since the interface was so easy to use we were able to do rapid prototyping and build out new dashboards in a matter of minutes.
What do you dislike about the product?
The lack of customization of visualizations makes building dashboards difficult. There are advanced customization options but it involves coding and understanding a third party library.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Great integration with our own product, Rockset, which makes it very easy to access our data as well as enables real-time capabilities. It is such a good pairing that we will often demo our product with Superblocks to show what it's like to visualize data in realtime.
Huge enabler
What do you like best about the product?
This is the best solution we've found for internal tooling and apps - it truly takes minimal time to spin up interfaces and dashboards. Superblocks has been a joy to build on, thanks to the fact that integrations are so seamless, especially to backend databases.
One of the biggest differentiators to call out is that their support team is extremely good and consistently prompt at responding to requests.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much to comment on here. Would be nice to have some more flexibility around UI components for aethetics, but the existing library covers all our current use cases functionally.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Low code interfaces and and apps - approval processes for interacting with CRM systems, data collection, analytics dashboards.
Superblocks builds some of our core internal tools in hours versus traditionally days
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility of tools, and the ability to self-host so things are in our own VPC.
What do you dislike about the product?
UI/UX of superblocks is still a bit raw and could use improvements. RBAC is a bit minimal
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've used superblocks to build out some of our core internal tools and it has been really awesome to be able to spin things up in hours versus doing so in days with traditional tooling.
Fast, powerful internal app development
What do you like best about the product?
Superblocks makes building interfaces simpler without being an experienced front-end developer. The time it takes to go from app idea to working product is easily an order of magnitude faster than before. We can make apps for workflows that never would've been able to justify putting an entire software dev team on, meaning we're automating way more than before. It's also great that many different types of developers can use it, including data engineers and those who build predominantly in Python.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's an opportunity to improve custom authentication to use the tool for externally facing apps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Superblocks solves the issue that most internal apps follow similar patterns, but people reinvent the wheel, so it takes too long to build tools. In financial services, tons of these workflows can be improved, and it makes internal processes dramatically more efficient.
Instant and automated internal tools
What do you like best about the product?
Can quickly create internal tools and monitors that talk to several different systems with low engineering effort.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing comes to mind. It's a great product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We don't need to spend engineering effort building internal tools, jobs, and monitors — that time can be better spent building our product.
SuperBlocks for MVPs
What do you like best about the product?
Superblocks was an incredible tool to handle our MVP use case. Easy to integrate, easy to design, etc. I can't recommend it enough.
What do you dislike about the product?
You should be aware of how SB handles styling and layout before you commit to a project design. It's very good and intuitive, just need to know how it works :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it build a BI tool
Data Generalist
What do you like best about the product?
Superblocks combine the ability to create simple UI apps, API endpoints, and scheduled workflows on a single platform which vastly benefits me as the only data person in a small company!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wouldn't say I like being limited by the existing libraries for Python/JS, but I understand this comes as a cost of having a fully preconfigured service. I also didn't like the absence of secret management capabilities, but the team has also fixed this! The UI components could have more features, but what's already there is great!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a data generalist, I wanted to worry less about the infrastructure and spend more time on data modeling and building beautiful reports. Superblocks allows me to schedule simple data pipelines within minutes, build simple dashboards with basic user controls, implement custom reports and shoot them straight to Slack.
Also, you don't need just reports today, and it is common to create more customized and interactive tools that are called data-driven apps. Building these apps was never that easy because I no longer need DevOps or backend people to set up web servers and help me develop APIs. I simply write the necessary SQL statement against a preconnected database, add a transformation layer in Python or JS if needed, and have an endpoint ready to power my front end!
Finally, many things we built are configurable, and configs were sitting in YAML/JSON/database. With Superblocks, it became relatively easy to expose these configs into a basic UI where other non-tech folks can see and even modify them!

Speed up internal development with Superblocks
What do you like best about the product?
With Superblocks, you can quickly build front-end applications for internal business tools that integrate with most back-end services while allowing for necessary customizations in either Python or Javascript. It will reduce development time significantly and allow you to focus on the custom logic that drives business ROI. It also has excellent backend, workflow and scheduling features to enable you to create automation services and internal APIs.
What do you dislike about the product?
The drag-and-drop grid layout provides a quick and easy way to build effective UIs, but it would be nice if revisions allow for dynamic layouts that scale for multiple screen sizes (Desktop, Tablet and Phone).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Superblocks allows us to quickly build applications (days, not weeks) that link data from multiple SasS platforms. Additionally, with Superblocks, we can quickly create automated data integrations, pipelines and transformations without the added overhead of full-blown ETL solutions.
Easy to use, extremely powerful.
What do you like best about the product?
It's effortless for anyone across our teams to create brand-new apps, use multiple languages, leverage multiple data sources, create full-on apps, APIs, and workflows makes everyone's life easier. We certainly didn't have this level of engagement in Retool, and once we switched over, it was much quicker and easier to create multiple new apps from customer & license management, to salesforce automations, and several other functions that enabled us to automate manual functions in place today.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are relatively few from my experience and nothing really worth noting in this review.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solving specifically for our need to automate many manual or code-level processes.
