I love how easy it is to create and link databases. It allows us to easily run reports that are clear and filter them by what information we need and how it correlates to other data.
I wish the platform was a little more trendy looking bu that is so miniscual in my book that it really doesn't matter.
we are able to keep all of our government clients organized and draft reports when they request on demand. I'm not sure how we would've been able to do applicant tracking without this database.
Ease to integrate with AWS. I needed serverless solutions to display bond price feed from third party vendor into social marketing microsite. I used kintone API with AWS API gateway to get data directly from kintone database. It was accomplished by a few lines of JavaScript code.
I hope there are more price options for small business users (Currently five users minimum). Also, I need more reporting capability with kinetone.
Serverless data integration between third party vendors. The client is able to provide curated information to their customers.
Its Interface and ease in application development and workflow automation
Lack of an on premise version to give clients a variety on deployment option to choose from based on their preference
Automating workflows E form creation
I am not a techie. We provided a detailed document of the platform we wanted to build. And they made it happen - fast, efficiently and affordably. This was driven by their platform, their team, knowledge and desire to help us. They helped me make a dream come true.
About the only thing I can think of is pretty insignificant: reports you build cannot wrap text - so columns in report headers can be quite wide.
We were working on creating a new business. The service is a system to audit/evaluate a specific area, and wanted this to also be a planning tool and resource center. We wanted a fully integrrated, self-managed platform - and kintone made it happen. Despite rolling out the product and our company just before Thanksgiving and the holiday season, after just 90 days we are beating break-even sales projections.
The ease of creating database files and reports without any in depth knowledge.I was able to teach my office administrative person ,who was formerly one of our bilingual students, to use the system in a very short period of time
Importing more complex excel files involves a bit more work than I had hoped but part of that is being new to the system and will likely get easier as our experieince increases
We are increasing the timeliness and accuracy of our files,eliminating the need to maintain paper documents and the ability to access our data on a variety of platforms. We are a small nonprofit so we still have a lot of work left to do to take full advantage but there is evidence that we are moving in that direction
No need to know coding, doesn't have to be an engineer, you can easily create a database by intuitively drag&drop necessarily blocks onto the field.
Cannot find any disliking points now. I need to use it for some more time to find out negative points.
I have a big excel sheet. I also have a lot of scanned files of contracts. These two data are completely separate, but Kintone surely integrate these two into one.
Customization is the best feature of KINTONE
Data download of bulk records by PDF is not included in the original feature
Minimizing duplicate workflows. Shorthened consuming work time and unecessory tasks
Flexibility of application along with work flow
Will need to use add-on if it's out of scope
Human mistake or manual process will be eliminated due to the work flow built in
At first I wanted to implement an application that was only used internally by the company but it was difficult for me to do it. With Kintone it was much easier to do it since I had the support of an advisor who guided me in my process and implementation of what I wanted to do. really for the creation of reports they are much faster to create with data in graphics that make the information better understood
for now there is nothing to dislike about Kintone
easy creation of applications without code allowing to have own applications
Kintone is the easiest and quickest app to come up with new purpose-based app tools, this is so good for sharing the information with the team members and also keeping the information, and data as part of logs and evidence.
Due to high-security reasons, it can not email the app contents but can chat with the team members to share the contents or in forms of the thread links, which is acceptable.
Trying to find and/or pull out the previous/old quotes, projects files, and business documents, etc. KINTONE is saving a lot of our time for the team members...by 30% or more.
have access to everything from any device
specialized setup required. everthing works well but still need assistance to be efficient
track business operations
Ease of making edits/developing our own applications A friendly and helpful front-end sales and support process Quick, easy to use online interface for reviewing our data on a weekly basis.
The pre-deployment test site was a little buggy and slow. These issues have been resolved since migrating to the full service. Managing user roles/departments can be a bit tedious.
We recently deployed Kintone as a bid management application/CRM platform that is aggregating all of our sales data together in one easy access location. Prior to Kintone, we had multiple spreadsheets or nothing at all.
I feel like this platform works with a variety of business models. For the most part, the app is self-explanatory and easy to navigate, especially because no coding is required. It's versatile and currently meets all of our needs.
Sometimes, it can feel a little too simplified; this could be because of the lack of coding. I also feel like it could use a few additional features: most importantly, being able to sort apps based on preference and not the date it was created. I use some apps more frequently than others. Finally, using the app can sometimes feel repetitive.
We now have a centralized location for all of our apps. We had issues with organization and this platform is helping mitigate confusion and keep us on the right track.
The software is very easy to get started. You can easily import your excel workbooks and create an app and database. We also use an account executed to help use get started right away and show some example of application development.
So features are not fully developed. I feel like the software is still in its infancy state. The software has the ability to evolve into something better. Examples of this capability missing is the quick searches by fields such as a button or field within the app. The import and export function is very difficult to understand. Especially when importing data to lookup tables.
Kintone is helping us set a standard in sales force management. The software helps us fine-tune the application toward the user's preferences.
The multiple options that are available to help build a database. also, the possibility to link it to existing platforms I don't know much about the competitors, but Kintone answered most of our needs
missing the ability to have Other with the option to add a different answer in multiple choices or selection answers without coding. I don't know much about coding but I think that with some javascript this would be possible.
the possibility to build a small database to use within our teams that does not require going through IT and all the time and cost that it would involve in order to have a one source of contacts for our different programs
No more searching for emails with pertinent information related to assignments for a task. It's all in one place and easy to see who is assigned to what and when parts of the assignments have been completed so that I can move on with my task that was dependent on the completion of something previous.
Sometimes hard to find the right place to record something. For example on the Peer Support App Pack page under "assigned to me" there is something assigned that I completed. I feel like I should be able to toggle or click on the assigned wording to be able to change the status to complete.
Finding information related to a task is easier. It's also easier to see what was done by who and when making communication easier amongst colleagues increasing business performance.
It has a variety of apps that you can choose from to customize your desired solution.
There are soo many apps it can be overwhelming.
We are calculating hours for recertification in addition to tracking classes for certification.
Compared to the majority of the others where you have to code, this is a piece of cake. The alerts by email are amazing. It keeps me on track of renewals, etc.
One thing would be when you place a word document in a file, whenever you click on it, it downloads to your computer rather than just a preview, like if you have it as a pdf. Not a huge deal at all, but just something I noticed in Kintone.
Keeping track of important, time-sensitive things while making sure they get completed by the time deadline. Being able to have all the necessary information that I need in one file for a client at quick access. Not having to be able to code
Prior to Kintone, we used multiple systems and spreadsheets to complete monthly reports. We were unable to provide timely caseload reports to team members and duplicated efforts. With Kintone, team members are able to clearly see their caseloads and assignments each day. They are able to complete services in the system and request assistance when needed. The Kintone representative was by far very knowledgeable and patient when customizing the system to help meet our needs. The customer service he provided is hands down, the best I've received during a system's implementation.
Overall, I don't have any complaints. I recognize that systems have limitations and users must be flexible. If I had my way, I would like to see a more fluid flow from one area to another. However, our processes are quite complicated, therefore I understand how the system was designed to meet our immediate needs.
As mentioned, with Kintone, each team member now has a caseload that they and others can see. This helps with accountability and timely follow-through. We are also able to reconcile monthly reporting in a much more effective and efficient way.
The ability to report on data in many different and flexible ways.
I wish it had the ability to insert Excel like formulas in fields to generate results for that attribute.
Excel files that were to big and clumsy to work with.
