Compare Glide with other popular tools in the same category.
Easy to use, you have a database on a spreadsheet, put it in Glide, done. I like the way it is so simple to set up thanks to the template. You can also push the use of the app very far integrating and replacing many of your existing tools with Glide.
As most of SAAS, at some point you have to take the Pro version and that becomes expensive at the end of the year but at least you know it works. For some uses cases like mine, the usage of tasks gets too expensive. You have to build your app around this. There is no translation feature except based on location. There is no way to make a native app.
Starting small for free, try and grow. I have built a responsive directory of partners including a map (autofocusing), listing with discounts and travel information. There are conditions according to the status of the customer. I save a lot of time and the app suits to the needs of my customers regarding features and UX.
Fastest way to build a prototype, test and iterate your product/software with clients, specially if you are not a expert designer. As a startup founder, it is the best way to build something, with data and put in front of a client.
Documentation is not always very helpful. Some content have very good documentation but the new features or functionalities, does not. So that is the only thing I do not like about Glide.
Building fast and reliable prototypes for B2B companies. We use it to build several types of software, like a CRM, ERP, Dashboards, Engineering applications and etc.
Glide is a great low code application for those wanting to get a product out quickly.
There isn't enough control over the User Interface.
Glide allows super quick development. Its very user friednly as well.
Glide offers such good UI and responsive results that you only have to focus on solving the business challenges that your clients present to you.
Its great value also becomes problematic since sometimes customers need or want their most personalised applications. For this, Glide offers CSS support in the Business Plan, but it's a bit expensive for me.
Initially, it allowed us to solve some projects oriented to local consumption easily and quickly. But, as we have acquired more knowledge and the evolution of the tool itself, we are now providing business solutions and digitalisation of processes. Moreover, when a client offers us a new challenge, we try to fit it into Glide.
It was simple to create a database with an engaging GUI. Our process has become exponentially faster and we're looking at new ways to use Glide.
It has a little bit of a learning curve. And we weren't exactly sure how all of the functions worked. We figured it out in the long run.
Tracking our returned products has become exponentially easier and faster. Processing speeds have gone up about 80%!
Integrations with other services like Big Query and Google Sheets.
There is a learning curve at the beginning that might be a little frustrating when first using the tool.
Get information to the public in an easy and accessible way.
The content around getting started with the platform is accessible and easy to digest.
If Glide was more proactive in helping its clients build databases, that would be amazing.
It's helping me build software both for internal tools but also as standalone SaaS.
Glide is easy, beautiful and powerful. One can start small and eventually can scale up depends on business requirements.
Maybe, Glide is switching to a much broader approach now. I want the chat component to be back soon.
Glide is helping my clients to get started in the short time possible and get ahead of their business
I do love Glide a lot! In my view, that's awesome for it's balance of simplicity/power. You can build almost anything on Glide in very short time and with a great pleasure!
I personally want to have more powerful data editor. Now it's ok just to build interface on that (which glide was actually made for) but there are no very basic features inside of the editor itself and that's difficult to work with because of that. But I am pretty sure that Glide's powerful team will change that very soon!
I have a lot to say because I am freelancer working on some enterprises and smaller businesses helping them with Glide Glide is amazing for: 1. Building custom solutions for business when there is no existing solution on the market. For example, CRMs, inventory management, education management and all the other possible flows where custom process is necessary. If you are was not able to find an existing solution for your business problem and feel that your solution creates a lot of boundaries for you, you should definitely try Glide. 2. Can be also helpful for small businesses and startups to test new ideas. 3. Optimizing paperwork
Don't be fooled by the it's clean and simple looking UI, Glide is extremely powerful and we have yet to come up with a feature we cannot build with it. Whatever you do, your app looks great. I love the eye for detail and the focus on functionality AND design. The latter often gets forgotten, resulting in unpleasant en user-unfriendly apps. The team pushes out feature after feature and everyone just works. Couldn't recommend more.
Yet to come up with something we dislike about Glide. There will also always be some volume limitations with no-code tools, but the team keeps expanding it platform to counter these.
Glide allows us to build an extremely powerful platform for thousands of users in a much more cost-effective way, that's still scalable, easy to build and deploy. It allows us to almost instantly respond to user needs, and test and launch new features within days instead of months.
