Compare Bubble with other popular tools in the same category.
Flexibility + The ability to achieve greater things in very less time as compared to coding
Cannot export the code. Animations are not very much feasible. Basic can be done but not advanced animations.
Ability to pivot super fast and try to build whatever ideas that we have in our mind without having to worry about immense time that is needed to be spent on coding
Accessible price in the personal plan, even for people who live in the third world like me Impressive development capabilities: no templates or third-party apps. Design your database, your UI, call the APIs you need. Few plugins are essential. The tasks they make easier, in general, you could do with what Bubble offers by default Unmatched speed of development
The jump in price to be able to go from 1 to 2 editors is quite large. To the point that if you plan to launch multiple small apps, it's MUCH cheaper to just create multiple accounts on the personal plan, rather than upgrade to a larger plan. It's justified, though, if your app has grown enough to require integration with Algolia.
I no longer need a programmer to develope my desings. With the knowledge I gained as a Business Analyst, i can create the apps I want.
I like the support team that are wrapped around Bubble, their developers feel like our extended team and their quality assurance is of a high standard.
No perfect native mobile solution, but absolutely perfect for web based applications that scale.
We are a business software development agency that has allowed us to provide a more well rounded business solution to companies all over the globe. From start up's to the largest enterprises with plus 10,000 employees.
Easy to use and had a lot of functionality. We built an application in a few days
I am struggling to find something I do not like about bubble
I was able to build our app prototype in a few days
Everything is simple and didactic. Very fast learning and excellent performance. The fluidity of things, the simple and powerful database.
The only thing I wish Bubble had is a place to organize custom states, better. In Power apps, for example, there is a variable organization tab.
Bubble is the solution for all spreadsheets. It's ideal for any company and we're happy to be able to help other companies manage their business better.
I am able to tackle business challenges with fast solutions. I am able to do things with Bubble that I never have been able to figure out as a non-coder. It's such a powerful platform, and the learning curve was nothing compared to all the time I've spent over the years trying to learn to code.
I wish the documentation was a little more complete, with deeper insight into the way certain processes are happening and why. It's an area that is getting better, but I still often find myself scouring the forums for clarification and workarounds.
We have built and launched several internal tools to accomplish business functions that were very time intensive before. We have also built a product for clients and it has introduced a significant new revenue stream to our agency offerings. These were issues that were too expensive to solve and maintain with traditional custom development. Bubble has provided a rapid new set of tools to address both the cost and time factors that were preventing significant innovation before.
A way to develop all with no code in faster time
It has no manual that guide you through design tasks
A short time to design, test and release systems.
I am unsure where to start, so let's try it like this: I have not seen/used any no-code tool that is as flexible and powerful as bubble. And more -many of these tools you can build yourself using bubble. 🤯 ✔ You can learn it quickly Do not get me wrong here. Bubble has a learning curve and you can always learn more. It is not "easy", like a simple form builder. This tool can be used for everything. You work with databases and APIs, design the front-end, and you will also use code sooner or later. This is why there is a difference between working with a dev/agency that "knows" bubble and people who "use bubble every day for a couple of years". But the cool thing is, you can already create something very valuable after a couple of hours. So no matter who you are and what your background is, you can start building something that works and provide real value really quickly. ✔️It is very powerful With bubble, you can genuinely create excellent products. You can have whatever background, but you will be able to build a software product on your own. I built tools for internal processes and products for vast numbers of users, from bootstrapped small businesses to venture-backed startups. And all these products work. ✔️Community I use many tools, but I have to say there is no community like this out there. You will truly have a good answer to your questions within minutes. There are many crazy talented people out there building plugins and templates and creating training materials.
Super expensive to host in the EU. Seriously, this is a problem and has to change. Other tools can do this for a fair price 👎👎👎
Problem: I am not a software developer but I want to build scalable software products on my own. A couple of years ago, people would have laughed at me :D.
We could build 3 iterations of our product without being developers ourselves. It gets you from idea to design, then to working product in a matter of days, not months, with traditional software development. Helps manage user signup, login, and complex database objects; if you change one variable name, nothing breaks. It just propagates the change throughout your app. Bubble also eliminates the need for a separate hosting infrastructure to enable your app/website to work.
The database component is relatively basic, and you can't do data visualization and transformation at the level needed for more complex ELT/ETL pipelines. Uploading data in bulk is a significant pain.
We didn't need to hire developers to build the first few versions of our app so we could iterate quickly w/o the cash burn. We edited features quickly and got users to interact with our app much sooner vs traditional methods
Its flexibility. I know I can build practically any app within Bubble. I've built many apps with Bubble and have yet to find a task it can't do.
Performance and rending speeds could be a lot better
Bubble is the whole stack, so I don't have to rely on any other product to build my apps.
