Compare Caspio with other popular tools in the same category.
Caspio has great customer support with minimal wait times and quick availability. They release a new update to their software every couple of months that introduces new ways to use their software as well as speed up creation time. They have different levels of security to purchase depending on your business type at different price points to fit your need. Many ways to deploy their applications throughout your site from embedding to iFrame. Love this product!
So far, I've been using Caspio for 6 months and don't have much to complain about. Some features can be released a little early and not everything has been thought through. It's usually fixed in the next patch like most software though.
We have been deploying table and infographics throughout our site. We recently launch a form for consumers to send information through and it gets sent to a specific email address where our team responds in orderly time. Great for customer service needs!
Caspio is easy to learn and use - even for a novice like me!
Documentation isn't as easy to find as I'd like.
Caspio makes it easy for non-programmers and those with a minimal understanding of database concepts to manipulate and display data for our newspaper readers.
I helped implement Caspio as a solution in my agency nearly four years ago to meet a single simple need. Since then, usage of Caspio has increased to nearly 20 applications and several more concepts awaiting time and approval to implement. One of the greatest components of Caspio is the very simple learning curve. As a non-programmer, I was able to stand up a web application in hours instead of weeks or months.
My biggest complaint is the authentication piece. If a user is not an admin for the instance, they have additional steps to log in.
We frequently have the need to publish searchable data. Our preferred method has tremendous cost that cannot be accommodated without a revenue stream. Caspio provided a low cost alternative. With the increased usage, we have realized significant savings over the other options.
Caspio is a relatively easy and quick way to build low-code applications that are accessible online. It enabled our company to go fully remote with no computer hardware to purchase or maintain. When we examined different tools to do this, Caspio came out above the others.
You have to take the no-code claim with a grain of salt. While creating a simple data entry screen with no code is possible, it is not practical to expect to create an application to serve your business without some Java script for data verification, formatting, etc.
We converted our legacy remote access server system and DBMS, which took years to develop and implement with Caspio in approximately 6-8 months. After a couple of months of working with the new Casio system, we could go fully remote and not renew our lease for office space. Our going fully remote was well before the pandemic, so we didn't have any of the issues many companies had.
It is HIPAA compliant and Caspio does all the monitoring for you.
Can't create a view from another view which is limiting
We are doing a lot of work from home so we don't need to be in the office if we utilize the CASPIO platform for some of your surveillance work.
It has a good amount of capabilities without overloading a creator with too many complexities. It is not an overly complex system but still allows the creator to create some complex applications. The pricing is good as well. We have created many applications that would have taken much longer in more advanced systems. The table triggers allow for advanced table manipulation that really make an application powerful.
Would like more integration with the external systems however that does add to complexity for the creator. Also the ability to bind multiple screens within the UI rather than writing Javascript to handle the binding.
Approval workflows. Data display. Search engines. Safety reporting. It is quite simple to load in a large amount of data and build a search screen to view the data and then export that subset of information. Also, workflows to allow people to approve and view information have reduced the time and paper to get this done.
Caspio allowed me to create websites from simple data manipulation to more complicated applications (mostly require SQL and Javascript codes). Anyone with basic knowledge or zero experience in web development can easily use Caspio. Caspio also offers short training, video tutorials, and samples,
For complicated applications, it's difficult to find solutions within Caspio's, you gotta dig deeper and create the solutions for yourself using javascript and SQL. Their support will only help you with the functionality within Caspio but they have a good community in their forum to help you and give you examples.
I get reporting requests on a day-to-day basis, Caspio has been helpful in that aspect. I also get benefits from creating much more complicated reports just by using Caspio's functionality alone with no code necessary.
Caspio is a web-based low-code development platform that helps with turning our ideas into custom applications at ease. We can automate our workflows, enable customer-specific notifications and generate detailed reports for our projects. This is effective as we work to pace up our SDLC, collaboration with teams and deliver the application within its time constraints. We can also add columns on a temporary basis while we require to generate specific reports and later we can remove them to uphold the previous records which are useful for our application testing & report analysis.
Although the documentation offered by Capsio is elaborate while starting fresh we need to spend time understanding the functionalities and how we can customize it to meet our application requirements. Apart from this learning curve, we can save a lot of time in building our database applications with various drag & drop features offered by Caspio.
We require a common utility to ingest all our customer data and build applications on top of it & Caspio facilitates this requirement perfectly. We have developed many applications to carry out a wide range of database administration for our business use cases. Its alert notification feature informs us about any anomalies in real-time as we have defined it in our automated workflow. It also gives us access controls over the addition & removal of users easily and we can efficiently create our database-centric applications to incorporate complex SQL statements and JavaScript codes with its drag & drop elements conveniently.
Simple interface and easy to use the platform, even for beginners with little to no coding experience. You can also easily import your own spreadsheets into Capsio with the click of a button, making data upload increadibly fast and simple.
While creating tables and datapages is very simple, developing your own "Styles" for designs seems more complex than it needs to be. Additionally, getting the full functionality of Caspio requires a relatively high-level plan.
We are using Capsio to streamline our internal work processes to track project progress, responsibilities, key contacts, etc. Capsio has allowed us to create tracking reports, submission forms, and more to keep track of our work.
I like that with zero knowledge of any programming languages, you can create a fully functional app. I also like that you can deploy your projects in seconds.
There is nothing I dislike about Caspio. It has been very usefull and time-saving for us.
We use Caspio for different applications such as data gathering, reporting, payroll, budgeting, approval workflow. We were able to switch many processes from MS Excel to Caspio.
