This service has made it possible for our company with almost no Dev experience to create a detailed customer app and employee app, that allows our customer journey to come to life. With almost no prior coding experience, I was able to learn the system through the incredible community, videos and more.
Almost nothing. The only thing is I would like to see a more robust chat feature. The chat currently is hard to make a one on one experience between different users. For support apps, this function is critical. Otherwise, It's working brilliantly and I hope to turn Glide coding into a career. I constantly am amazed by its capabilities and can't wait to see what they add next.
It's created our Customer journey and allowed us to give our customers control of their data. It has also allowed our employees to be able to connect with our customers one on one.
From prototype to new feature, glide helps get you there. Use Glide to wireframe ideas, to test out data logic, to identify needs through user testing, and use it for customers or as your best in-house tool
As Glide continues to grow it adds new features and capabilities, however it is not always clear what the roadmap or "end goal" is for Glide. As a customer and user it makes it hard to plan for your own tech plans and transfers with this ambiguity.
Glide allows us to create apps to showcase and provide improved user experience for our clients. We were able to get to market and launch products very easily, and also to evolve those products with little friction over time.
Glide is easy to use for people who don't code!
Glide has a great selection of templates. Continuing to add more will be useful
Glide helps me build applications and websites without having to rely on technical coders
I love the instantaneous display of data from our databases. Using multiple sheets (Airtable, Sheets, Glide) makes creating powerful!
Limit of blocks or template usable. It's a shame not to be able to create more freely
Accessibility and ease of creation.
Simplicity and ease of use. Getting an app online is a breeze and takes not time at all
the new UI change was a big hit to my productivity. getting more used to it now though
Its very easy to create apps to collaborate with others. In one day I can have a simple app ready to go. the templates are also very helpful
The ease of iterating the design, the wo
The ease of iterating the workflows and design. To be able to release the app in real time. The flexibility that it provides any user to create any kind of a work flow that they want to test out. The possibilities are unlimited.
For me, aggregating information in one place and distributing to a cohort was a challenge. The fact that it supports google sheets, I could write crawlers and automatically put the feed in the sheets, which shows up inside glideapp in real time. I can reiterate on the card design on the basis of feedback received from users.
Glide is pretty intuitive and easy to use. It does have a learning curve but it is much softer than other websites.
Because it is so easy to use, it naturally has some limitations as to what you can do with it. Sometimes it is difficult or even impossible to implement what we have in mind if it is something more complex. It is also a little expensive considering my country and my business' size.
Glide helped me create an interface to interact with my students. I leave homework, assignments and interesting material there and it is pretty intuitive for them to use.
How fast and intuitive Glide is, in a few hours I had a useful app more than 250 could use. Based on a course and the community on Whatsapp with non-technical people. I'm building a bigger project now and it is so good to start if you are new to no-code and applicable in such different areas in business and life. Recommend!
So far nothing. I am still learning and improving my skills :) Great job from the team behind Glide and so excited to see and use the product as it evolves and gets better!
How fast it is to build a solution what it's been more useful to me is how fast I can share an app with someone and receive immediate feedback to work on improvements.
The most helpful thing is how quickly you can go from starting an app, to publishing something functional. The drag and drop tools make it easy for anyone to use.
Since it's a drag and drop, no-code platform it's not completely customizable. Sometimes it requires unofficially supported work arounds for the app to look how you want it.
Glide is solving the problem of being able to easily view data sets on a mobile platform rather than trying to scroll around on a spreadsheet on your phone. It looks good and is easy to use.
As a platform Glide is so easy and fast to use - I've created apps that have solved real-world problems within a few days - instead of weeks or months! The designs are naturally beautiful, but also allow me to add my own designs for a custom touch. Plus the team at Glide are super supportive and new features are being released all the time, I can't recommend them highly enough.
Naturally, because it's not a custom platform you are limited to the features, layouts and confinements that Glide makes available, rather than having full control and open customization.
Removing spreadsheets, and creating apps for teams who need easy control and different functionality based on roles (eg. team members versus admins). We have got some great integrations working with Glide, however we know we can get an app without integrations launched for people to install with in a week.
I think the key weapon of Glide is its user experience as well as the interface. IT's super easy to work with and I literally built a working app in less than 1 week. Honestly, we think Glideapps is amazing. The no-code platform will give you access to a whole new world: that of apps. You can create and publish your own app in minutes, fulfilling virtually any purpose you need. Whether it be for your business or your personal life, there’s an app that can streamline any process.
The Glide database is currently limited to 30,000 rows and this could be a problem if we would like to build a powerful ERP system with inventarisation, accountance and more. Glide isn’t the most practical platform if you have a project which needs a lot of design customization. It’s possible that you won’t be able to find exactly the right template for your needs, so bear that in mind. Because Glide creates PWAs (Progressive Web Apps), your Glide app won’t be able to send notifications on users’ desktops. However, you could leverage the many ways of sending email notifications or even texts, thanks to integrations, actions and triggers.
At the moment we are using it as ERP software for the production of cosmetic products. It helps us to search in the database of ingredients very easily from our mobile phones even when we are out of the office.
The way the data is pulled and arranged automatically
sometimes delay in the update and when i change something in the app i have to download it again
I am working in Finance and I had zero experience with mobile apps, I was looking for something I can use to show my reports on mobile since most of the persons looking at my reports are on the go all the time and reports are not great to open on mobile but with glide, I was able to create an easy report so they can open from the mobile without having to search for info or zoom in or out, the view is just clear and I really like it
Easy to go from 0 to 1. If you have good knowledge of data bases, excel formulas and design yo can do a lot
Is hasn't a good connection with Microsoft excel.
Communication between areas. We are solving it for 3 different departments of the company. Planning, construction and administration
The built-in functions and the support are awesome!
Nothing really, once you have grasped the concept it is easy to use
If I don't understand how to put something together which I know what I want but not sure how to do it the community forum is a great help but the one-to-one support is invaluable!
Muito simples o modo de uso. Muito intuitivo. Design muito bonito e inteligente.
A parte de filtros é a única um pouco complicada de entender de início, maqs depois que aprende fica mais tranquilo.
Ajudando a organizar os projetos e ajudando na gestçao deles.
The best thing about using Glide is being able to share with others an easy and intuitive way to enter data, keep records or simply access information easily.
So far the most complicated thing is that to use all the magic of Glides, you need to use Make.com or Zapier; it's not a big deal but you need to know a bit about how a webhook works.
When working on a project that handles customers and inventory, Glide helps us have real-time visibility into the status of everything. Like having our own custom CRM without code.
It is a very easy tool to use to quickly make fully functional and nice looking mobile apps. It's also great that the app that gets created can run in most any browser and such works on desktops and tablets.
There are some functions that are somewhat limiting. The Datagrid still needs the ability to link row clicks to other pages. And some components will not show if there is no data for that row. It would be nice to have the option to show the label and blank data anyway. However, they are adding new features all the time.
Quick development of mobile apps. Ability to extend the functionality of google sheets. Ease of development. Ability to deploy apps to users very quickly. Easy to make changes iteratively.
Unlike many other no-code tools, Glide takes care of the design for you. You don't need to worry about pixels and positioning components on the screen. Glide is very easy for beginners to pick up. The videos on YouTube are polished and easy to understand. The community is also very helpful and friendly.
You will need to know the many workarounds. Building on Glide is unlike building with a programming language, so you need to switch your mindset. For example, passing variables from one screen to another requires a different approach in Glide. However, after you understand Glide's peculiarities, you can build really fast.
I needed to build an app for my non-profit organization. It must be built quickly and at a low cost. After a period of learning, I was able to build the app in a few days by myself.
I have tested several no code apps and they have in my opinion two big problems: not as easy to learn and charge by app. With Glide, we have been able to deploy hundreds of apps using Google Sheets as the base, easy really learning curve, and one fair price for all our apps.
They changed the pricing structure and we were not able to keep doing what we did with Glide for a while. However, I understand we were early users and they have to make money. And the prices are fair
We are a corporate training company and we used to include printed manuals with each workshop. Now, we develop an app with all the information our participants need and no more printing, or distribution costs, and the participant can use the information very easily.
It simplicity and user friendly environment
The pricing, the PRO plans are too expensive for small business
In my case I need an easy to use app to upload data about project executions, Glide give me the right set of tool to achieve it.
The easiest way to create an app. If you are not a developer is a must
Some glitches and specific features. The login page should be easier to edit
The easiest connection to needed data in one place instead of sending it over and over
I have tried 3 previous no code platforms (Bubble, Appsheet and Filemaker) and I've found Glide to be a great combination of power and ease of use.
Some features are being added to allow more customization but in general there's always a trade off between power and ease of use. I haven't found much I dislike.
So far I've only built some simple inventory management apps but it's clean interface and ease of use is enjoyable. It's very fast to build with.
It allows you to build exactly what you need for your internal processes. Great for teams, and working outside google sheets.
It's a bit hard to understand at first but once you get the hang of it it's amazing.
We built an internal app for employees. They can track customers accounts and notes.
As someone with no app making experience, I found Glide very easy to use. The UI is intuitive, they have lots of templates for you to start from, and lots of customization options.
Even though they have a lot of options, I still haven't quite got my app to do exactly what I want it to do, although it is close. I imagine I would need to do custom programming to get what I really want though.
I needed a method of tracking my bonsai garden - what trees I have, where I got them and for how much, then note when major work was done on the trees. The app is much easier than tracking on paper, I can do it from my yard easily, and it allows me to really learn a lot more about each tree and how it responds to my actions.
Very easy to use. Content is realtime updated. It was very easy and quick to create a first website, that also acts an an interactive app.
Nothing, it is really the programm I was looking for to create an information app.
In the free version is the ammount of changes limited. This can be be problem when you have to redesign your app.
Using the conference template, I could infer what I needed. That was a huge help.
No easy way to edit after publishing. By mistake, a published the app and then built a new one, using the same data.
We needed an app for a tech conference. This was the easiest and free way to see if Glide worked for us. It does. Now we can offer attendees an app and not a paper schedule.
Easy to use, no code requirements, adaptable to our needs and fair price
Until the moment, there are no custom push notifications
Keeping track of all the customer orders of the company, inventories and production scheduale.
How easy it is to build an app and publish it. Within a couple of weeks to months you have a completely working and published app
Sometimes there are some limitations in what is possible. But often with a diversion it can be achieved.
Namely price and time. It is fast to build and cheap to publish
The ease and speed with which an app can be created and be fully functional.
perhaps an area for improvement is analytics
the creation of apps easily and in a very short time without the need for any programming.
The integration with Google Sheets and the collaboration feature with teams.
Nothing, in particular, with the upload of background.
Helped us create a dashboard for My Good School for easy monitoring and evaluation.
