The power of low code without no ties with proprietary data sources
What do you like best about the product?
My experience with Retool has been a blend of a fast learning curve and productivity. I achieved positive intermediate results, enabling the creation of highly productive features for my stakeholders even after the first day of use. It is accessible for individuals with basic knowledge of data structures and no programming skills, yet it is remarkably flexible for experienced developers to quickly generate low-code solutions using SQL and JavaScript. Intuitive functionalities seamlessly operate when experimented with, particularly when users comprehend the object/component model and data bindings. I discussed with my stakeholders the transformation of 40-hour tasks into a mere 4-hour cycle encompassing development, testing, and release.
It means a lot to me to have the opportunity to connect to standardized data sources such as Postgres or other DBMS, as it allows me to employ alternative solutions for tasks like backup, data migration, or other data governance procedures. As a multi-client team, utilizing multiple connections enables me to maintain the segregation of client data within our cloud structures or within dedicated client structures in a secure manner.

What do you dislike about the product?
Use cases with special requirements are either not supported or are addressed through workarounds. It appears that the Retool engine prioritizes optimization, maintaining a well-balanced component dependency tree. However, this safeguard introduces a barrier that I anticipate could be overcome by incorporating custom React components into the architecture.

All internal system management (every system for collaborators, partners and so on) spending less time in software development.
