Best tool to test, ship and evolve new ideas (especially with AI)
What do you like best about the product?
I often use Retool to develop working prototypes or new stand-alone features to easily integrate in our product. This approach accelerated testing of new functionalities, improved the feedback loop, and allowed for rapid iteration on prototypes. I think is the best tool to test and release new ideas (especially with AI).
What do you dislike about the product?
UI customization often requires to write custom CSS
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can ship much faster because we can use developers' time on core features while saving time on stand-alone features

Simple to use, fast to iterate
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of building out internal applications for the team or external prototypes to prove a solution without the need to scaffold a react or svelte application.
The time it takes to build applications are 1/10th of how I used to build applications.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are some limitations around the UX/UI that you wont have in your application in React and there are somewhat limited integrations against GCP.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Most of the time its very easy to build out business process layers in retool using workflows to enable the business to build out the services and the data layers they need, then integrate it to retool to build out the business process layers.
The simplicity of managing these layers for non engineers are stunning and can create both frontends to manage it or manage it through simple changes in code and workflows.

Best NoCode Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Easiness of use + learning curve
I was able to create a quick admin panel to edit user profiles within less than 1 hour
Also it was supereasy and intuitive to connect with my DB or APIs.

What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of tutorials + Onboarding
If you are a first user you do not get to know how to use it or the differences between the product, it took me the same to understand Retool capabilities than creating the first app copying from an existing one

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Internal admin and control tools
We have only a backend developer and to fasten everything related to managing the DB or interacting with it we needed a No-Code tool, using APIs direclty is not a thing for everyone.

I don't think the value of Retool can be overstated
What do you like best about the product?
We can VERY quickly prototype product ideas, prove concepts, deploy tailored internal tools, and build custom integrations between disparate systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the documentation for self-hosted implementation was a little lackluster and disjointed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're now able to marry our operational systems (sales, support, account management, etc.) and myriad data sources from every corner of our ecosystem. AND build bespoke automations that save countless hours of clerical work, and let our folks focus on far more important things.
High quality guaranteed, simple and effective.
What do you like best about the product?
I found retool thanks to a friend of mine. I wasn't so enthusiastic to use it, because I'm a techie, but I must say that it saved souch time in my work life! I started a business an year ago and I use it every day. Just a few hours and I have most of the features I need. Cost effective, simple, well designed, very valuable for startups!
Thanks, you did a great job!
Thanks, you did a great job!
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe a missing startup program. But actually I don't know if exists honestly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm managing my user's tickets on demand operations. I manage also my website layout and environment toggle feature.
Excellent Way to build internal apps quickly
What do you like best about the product?
Retool provides a way to quickly spin up a basic UI, connecting to back end servers and common integrations like postgres and Stripe easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
The workflow for releasing new versions of an app is confusing and collaborating on an app is a little fraught and apt to cause collisions and confusion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use retool to build and support internal tools, like dashboards, operations, and customer experience workflows, without having to devote dev. time towards customer UI development.
Perfect low-code solution for internal tooling and external apps!
What do you like best about the product?
Too many things to choose from!
But as a Retool user since 2020, I have to say that the best thing about Retool is its regular feature updates. I've seen many low-code solutions that stay almost stagnant in their features, and Retool brings in valuable new features all the time that help uplevel our user experience.

What do you dislike about the product?
Can't think of much! Retool is built in such a way that if there was something that isn't possible out of the box, there are still options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The primary problem its solving is allowing for speedy app building, particularly from less technical builders.
Really an intuitive product!
What do you like best about the product?
It has greatly help improve our team's productivity. It is simple staright forward and prototyping is never faster and easier. It has also reduced the overhead for spinning up the apps.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing could be better and cannot use to build complex applications. Integration to our custom components which we build could be made little straight forward.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were usign to buildp prototypes for some of our applications. Prototypes were taking time, but using Retool we were faster and it was svaing a lot of time, We were able to get feedback quickly and on the fly in some meetings we were able to fix some comments and show the updated version.
Simplicity and Focus
What do you like best about the product?
I love that retool is such an evergreen tool. We use it for so many different operations here and basically takes the trouble out of crazy calculations that we could never do manually.
What do you dislike about the product?
I just wish it was more intuitive and easier for people to figure out how to manipulate for their specific needs and the steps needed to get there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Retool currently helps us generate a schedule of projected revenue over terms of our agreements and matches the revenue to the specific assets that are bringing it in. We're able to accurately show our customers data on their own products and that strengthens our relationship with them.
Definitely the best best of low code solutions
What do you like best about the product?
I like the transparent integration between code and UI (actually writing and seeing the code). Retool is by far the best and quickest way to create simple CRUD webapps. I really enjoy workflows as well. I like how you can define resources, and use them throughout the app. It seems all of the authentication types are supported really good (haven't ran into an issue once). Retool offers the fastest way to implament new apps of all of the other low code solutions. I haven't yet had to communicate to customer support, but from what I have learned from a collegue, customer support is awesome, they don't only help with predifined answers, but actually listen to suggestions and make corrections in the system based on user needs. Integration with other tools is easy, because of resources feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
1. Error logging is a bit lacking compared to writing app by code (still a lot better than all other low code solutions)
2. Apps can get a bit slow when loading loads of data
3. Code suggestions sometimes not working properly
4. It sometimes forces you to write unreadable code by design, because you have to write it in one line
5. I miss passing parameters to between functions and queries, I had to find a few workarounds to make some edge case solutions work
6. Workflows - missing looping over multiple blocks

Mostly development of quick simple CRUD applications, that would otherwise take months to put out.
