Great tool for automating tasks and to save time!
What do you like best about the product?
Really simple to link together multiple API requests together so you can then build an 'app' to achieve a task that before took 10 different requests
What do you dislike about the product?
Retool is great, but can be slightly difficult to use at times for setup. The UI is not very attractive but gets the job done
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed to activate API access for our customers via creation of an accounts, attributing specific rights to that account and a number of other items. This previously took 30 minutes at least, and was very manual. With retool, we have linked all the requests together so you input the information you need and then it does the rest for you. Now the whole task takes less than 3 minutes! This has allowed us to better serve customers and save time to be used strategically on other tasks
Superb app for building internal apps for day to day use.
What do you like best about the product?
The simple UI and easily configurable fields are something I like the most in the app.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I dislike about Retool, it just helps me get what I want without any hassle.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Out of the box functionalities are done using retool which happens outside our product.
Easy to build complex solutions with limited technical knowledge
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing is the ability to build complex systems from the ground up with a tool that allows for all the flexibility required. We're a super technical organization and Retool was sophisticated enough for us optimize our operational flow with very limited technical skills, we currently have only a few hours a month dedicated to maintaining it.
What do you dislike about the product?
The things people get wrong sometimes, is that you still need to be a little technical and know some code to built with retool. It's not a no-code solution entirely. For us this worked great, but good for non-technical companies to know as they look for options
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We optimized our entire operational flow, which is quite complex. Retool helps us from the start to customer communication, and is involved throughout the customer journey.
Great no-code tool for engineer!
What do you like best about the product?
This might sounds weird that no-code tool for engineer?
But it is true.
We as engineers, facing a lot of routing and boring tasks requires some code, everyone has it's own kudos to accomplish those tasks, but Retool is a new all-in-one tool to create those tools for engineer, teammate, etc.
I would like to recommend to all of my teammates to use Retool

What do you dislike about the product?
So far didn't see anything dislike about Retool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. some routing jobs/tasks relied on engineer's work.
2. simple UI freed engineer from normal CRUD operations
3. really fast to build an internal tool to operate on the production database, saving tons of time for engineers.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try once, you will find this one will well fit into your development process and internal dashboard/CMS etc.
Retool review
What do you like best about the product?
Super simple to use vars to create dynamic reports in super quick time
What do you dislike about the product?
Page flow when hiding elements didn’t always work as expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reporting on billing events in severless database.
Very flexible if you have the dev chops
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the fact if you can do it in javascript retool will let you report on it. Substantially cheaper than competition.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not as executive friendly in that if the C-Suite wants data it isn't easy for them to self serve it as in other platforms.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows us to provide the business team with clear reporting in a very affordable way.
Great Product Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy the interface and how easy it is to use. The design and layout are very intuitive. The support that I've gotten when I got stuck has also been amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing is per-user, this makes it hard to be used for a large org 1000+ users with tools where a user may only use it once a year.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were able to easily build internal admin apps with a drag and drop UI. We were able to get non-developers involved with the building process and everything is hosted in the cloud with authentication.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be careful with the pricing structure, it can get very expensive for a large organization.
Amazing time saver for building internal tools
What do you like best about the product?
Very seamless and intuitive to use. Drag and drop is super intuitive, and connecting supported databases is seamless. Also very satisfied with the prebuilt components.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not enough database integrations was one problem. We wanted to spin up elastic search, but ended up going with another DB instead because of lack of support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All kinds of internal tools, from managing databases to summarizing and visualizing internal documentation
Excellent tool to build Admin panel
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to create good-looking pages easy and connect it to any database or REST api.
What do you dislike about the product?
A cost and inability to set permissions for Production and Staging for the same page (app).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need an admin panel for our organization, and we do not want to have a separate staff for it.
Great tool to add to our stack
What do you like best about the product?
clear documentation, quick & easy to build apps, really amazing and responsive customer service
What do you dislike about the product?
it gets tricky when working with more complicated queries that require data parsing
