I like the cloud base format allowing me to access my data anytime and anywhere. Also, the ability to connect this database through Zap greatly enhances the flexibility.
So far I have not found anything to dislike about this platform.
Multi-agency case management. I can give users access from different companies allowing them to run stakeholder reports.
Easy to learn in days. Easy to design an application and input data. Easy to create a view. Easy to control permisions. Easy to add plugins.
Hard to input data of multiple rows. Hard to perform automation for data management.
Collect data from group members, and do simple aggregation for different categories. Do a simple workflow.
powerful search engine and no coding required
strict on file upload format, uploading require data cleaning
database for my company to easily access customer data
Kintone is very user-friendly regardless of your experience with databases and/or computers.
Some of the add-ons and apps that would be so beneficial to our organization are incredibly expensive.
Having our organization's data all in one area and not multiple documents is so helpful.
Ease of use and adaptability. Customer service is great too. I really like the no-code usability and the helpful tips and tricks Kintone offers. The online forums are helpful too. The software allows you to easily prepare reports and graphs. I use it almost explicitly to forecast financial tracking and spending. I switched our department over from an Access database to kintone due to Access being outdated, updated, and not user-friendly. Kintone has solved that issue and made our life much easier.
The GUI is not that aesthetically pleasing, but that does not really bother me too badly. The ease of use and customer service make up for it! There is almost too much functionality.
Internal Financial tracking, report and graph making. Being able to export to excel is a really nice feature. Having everything stored on the cloud is great too.
Kintone is easy to navigate, the tech support is always available, and treats us like family.
We are yet to find anything that we absolutely dislike about Kintone
We can provide a robust system in the field by using the Kintone mobile application, which has led to easy documentation while out helping clients.
I like how user-friendly Kintone is to set up and also how customizable it is. For a business like ours, creating a unique workflow will be a massive time saver and reduce countless hours of repetitive data entry. The team @ Kintone, specifically Kyle and Joe, have been incredibly generous with their time - helping me set up and implement my apps which will have a long-lasting effect on our productivity.
I would like the ability to grant permissions on tables. I also think adding a field group that contains a default "Address Block" of fields would be helpful.
We are solving workflow and repetitive data entry problems. Our business has been plagued by using a 20yr old workflow and needed to be refreshed as we look to grow for the next 20yrs
The simple design has made it easy to build working solutions to some of our back-office data management tasks. In particular we have focused on replacing spreadsheets that did not have enough data validation. Kintone's simple design is ideally suited to these types of tasks and is a great upgrade over spreadsheets where data corruption or user mistakes can break all of your work.
1 - I wish that there was a HIPAA complient version of the product so that we could develope client tracking applications for some of our smaller programs. 2 - The plugin developmenet documentation could be much better. A library of previously developed plugins would be very helpful as a starting point so that I and my dev team could see examples of working plugins in action.
To date we have mostly focused on inventory management problems. Our first project was a PPE inventory procurement and distribution database. Prior to the pandemic, offices generally procurred these items on their own, but the increase in use brought the need for centralized bulk purchasing and distribution. Our second project was a technology lending library. Much like the PPE inventory, we needed an inventory management solution that was a step above a spreadsheet, but not as complex as a standard IT inventory management system. It was very easy to develop this in Kintone, creating a simple interface for program staff to check in and out devices to our clients for use at home.
I like Kintone because Tim is great in support, explanation of how to do things, patience, kind, and very tolerant of us technologically challenege users!!!!
I do not like being dependent on Technol
All my data is in one place and it is customizeable to meet my data configuration needs!
We've been with Kintone for about a year and it's been a pretty good experience. We've been able to create some simple apps quickly and painlessly without the need for development skills. However, with our team's development skills, we've also been able to create much more complex production managment software that connects multiple apps together. Everything is adaptable and thus we keep building on it as our business grows.
It's not as pretty as some software out there, but the fact that it works better than most is far more important. It works on mobile phones, but it's not fully mobile adapted.
We looked at every major industry software and decided we would be cutting corners by using any of them, or we would be committed to a high monthly cost that didn't make sense for the size of our business. We've been able to build our own customized software for our business at a reasonable monthly fee that we honestly feel is better suited for our business.
