Great platform for prototypes and tool building
What do you like best about the product?
Retool offers a straightforward platform to build pages, where users can easily drag and drop customizable frontend components and with some coding, wire them all together to form your final product. Retool is built for internal tools and dashboards, but it is not limited to only doing that. The thing I liked best about Retool is the flexibility of the platform and the level of technical support you would get as a user. The platform offers many pre-existing connectors to external resources, such as Salesforce, Mongo, Stripe, and many more. It will take you a while to getting the setup right, but once it's set properly, you can easily build a tool in days.
The technical support team is what I wanted to highlight at Retool. The team consists of custom-oriented engineers that focus on meeting your needs. They listen to your questions and provide suitable solutions for most of them. For the ones that cannot be resolved immediately, the escalation chain up to their engineering team is also very transparent, where you can expect their team to respond with a very detailed explanation of the root cause and what they have done to fix it - in a very timely manner!

What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest downside of Retool right now is the lack of transparency of what features they are actively developing. So in short, a product roadmap would be ideal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Productivity problems are being solved using Retool. The benefits of Retool are the ease of use and the ability to allow developers to work on what matters most and not worry about frontend dependencies.

The past part of ReTool is how easy it is to gather data from multiple sources and build a highquality internal tool that anyone at our company can use.

Boost your team with internal tools
What do you like best about the product?
Almost no-code data integration and UI creation help quickly get to work rather than getting sucked into creating internal tools.

Integration with JSON format databases like MongoDB could be better to help provide easier nested lookup based on document id references. Other than that, it provides comprehensive integration capabilities and robust UI layouts to use.

Managing users on our platform, managing user's internal properties like free credits, access restrictions, and even publishing and managing content on CMS has become user friendly with Retool.
Build Admin Tools within hours not months or years
What do you like best about the product?
Retool is really good for building Admin Tools both for people with a programming background and also teams with no familiarity with programming. This is a perfect choice I choose when servicing clients who need flexible Admin.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some most-frequently-used components that missing which I need to create manually using React. However, this is not a deal-breaker because the programming interface used in Retool is very popular and available everywhere. In our case, we built a custom component that can upload audio dynamically based on the type of audio available. For example, if I have 5 types of voice overs, I need to upload 5 videos at a time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We serve clients in various areas from the Workout app, e-commerce price tracking, and many others.

We still need better solutions for peer reviewing, testing, and staging individual Retool applications to ensure they are not broken when someone is making changes
