The best Thing in Ninox is, that you can create Databases without any experience in Software-Coding. It is easy to lern and most things you can do with Drag-and-Drop. So that you can create sophisticated databases without programming knowledge. In addition, Ninox offers outstanding support and for newcomers there is a webinar every week where you can ask any questions you may have. There is also a forum where most questions are answered within a very short time.
Ninox has a few small flaws, but they don't carry any weight. It would be nice if you could influence the design even better. But the developers have announced that this will improve soon.
We use Ninox for the complete bookkeeping of our company, as well as a merchandise management program and shop software. We also keep our logbook and our project management in Ninox.
Not just one point. Its a nice way to build up your data based application, combination of XLS, GUI and formulas. I like the possibility to combine different tables, graphics and formulas to one working and flexible application.
Sadly its not well documented. Despite this, there are many helpful forum members but you have do a deep search by yourself. Sometimes code is quite easy, sometimes coding is a mess. The PDF creation process could be better. If you are in need for different forms or prints this will be a point to work on.
Build up a database for Wine and Business-Presents. Including all needs for such a project like "one-click" expertises, different export possibilities, "one-click" translation via API...
Fast, intuitive UI. Able to make custom formulas and functions, real-time working with colleagues, good functional iPhone app
Printing in custom fonts is not possible. I would like to request a redesign of the iPhone app. In my opinion it would be great if it looks like a more native iOS app.

Ninox is extremely fast and robust. It's relatively easy to understand, yet complex enough to manage even complicated tasks, or large amounts of data. I was quite surprised by the awesome, proactive support.
The visuals are a bit dated (gradients, fonts), not a major issue. It's not possible to create PDFs on the iPhone app yet, a feature which would be very helpful for me. According to the Ninox team, this feature is in the works.
Ninox helps me to manage thousands of contacts. Before I used Google Contacts and tested numerous CRMs, none which came close to what I was looking for, a solution that works both on- and offline and that's fast.
The cloud functionality alone is worth the price. And speaking of price, it’s radically cheaper than FileMaker Pro, and really just as powerful. Also: it is super fast and responsive.
I’d like the ability to create more user-friendly forms and views (without sacrificing the speed. But that seems to be on the way.
I’m using it in music and show production. Being able to share with my production partners in the cloud is huge.
The best thing in Ninox is that you can create yourself everything that will surround yuor data. Titles, sizes, colors you name it. And if that is not enough - there is triggers that allow to fire custom code everytime speciffic event happens, for example field content updates. Additionally on Ninox cloud there is functions that allow to share via a link your data and you can update the view without resending link. There is also a way to use external resources like zapier thanks to Ninox implementing Rest API last summer.
There is a few things I dislike in Ninox. First was that on iPad while entering code I was not able to enter single quotes and double quotes, because those which I entered appeared different from those which Ninox expected. So I had to copy and paste them. Despite all my frustration I was wrong to blame Ninox, because after I contacted support they explained that it is my iPad that turns normal quotes to stylized quotes and showed me how to turn that off in settings. Next thing is few bugs in using dates, but mostly they are also related to how iPad makes it appear. I have informed support about it and am sure they will think of a way to improve that.
We benefit from using Ninox in our business because it allows to keep everything in one place. It can be used in a small, large or growing companies by using payment method "per user", which only limits you on the maximum team members, so you are free to change team members when you need it. To keep data safe and improve efficiency you can create and assign roles to team members and every role can have custom access to every field and every table. For example in my database editors can create and edit, but only admin can delete a record. And thanks to history feature I can track any changes made in every record. To be even more secure Ninox creates backups on a regular basis and if you require you can do a backup manually and download it.
Mit Ninox hat man schnell ohne Programmierkenntnisse eine einfache Datenbank die einsetzbar ist und funktioniert. Wenn man dann Lust oder Bedarf nach mehr hat, dann findet sich alles weitere entweder im Handbuch oder im Forum. Die Vorlagen helfen für einen raschen Einstieg. Danach gelingen auch Projekt durch ausprobieren und erweitern. Es ist auch geeignet Daten die nur einmal projektspezifisch verwendet werden strukturiert abzulegen. Es fast so einfach wie Excel, wenn man so die aller grundlegendsten Kenntnisse einer Datenbank hat. Daher löst es auch die Exceltabellen teilweise ab. Mit ausprobieren kommt man sehr weit. Selbst die Formeln funktionieren recht anwenderfreundlich. Als ich einmal nicht weiter kam, habe ich den Support/Forum online kontaktiert und rasch eine brauchbare Lösung erhalten. Die Datenbanken lassen sich einfach kopieren, so habe ich immer eine Entwickler/Testversion und eine produktive Version. Die Art wie die Formulare erstellt werden ist sehr einfach und trotzdem noch vielseitig.
Die Einführung vertiefte in neue Funktionen wäre hilfreich. Jederzeit zugänglich, da ich an Entwicklungsprojekten meistens nachts arbeite. Die Datenbank kann ich nicht öffentlich ins Netz stellen um damit eine Geschäftsidee realisieren. Die Kosten für jeden weiteren Nutzer der nur Daten eingibt sind viel zu hoch. Ausserdem fehlt eine Synchronisation mit Kontakte bei Mac, daher muss ich jeden Datensatz einmal im Ninox CRM und in Kontakte eingeben.
CRM für meine Firma, Anlagendatenbank über elektrotechnische Anlagen die ich projektiere.
the clean interface, colors, UI, in general easy to use.
can be faster, sometimes maybe it is network issue.
no issue until now.
We used Ninox every data to manage our small business. It has been a godsend as compared to other platforms that were less reliant and stable.
I wish you could create a database enter and delete button before adding or deleting records.
Customer records are stored, sales leads captured and more. Before I had an unstable uncustomizable platform where data was lost frequently. I will not name the competitor.
I really like how easy it is to navigate through the app, create fields, And manage your data from one screen. You can also view your data as a spreadsheet format which is very convenient when you’re trying to proofread names etc.
The only complaint I have so far is if you need to move the window on your desktop you have to grab a certain place on the top of the window to move it. And it’s a very small area that will enable you to move the window out of the way Otherwise it won’t move.
. I am a musician and I keep track of fans, contacts, and event planners. Having this database lets me keep track of all of my records, all of my phone calls and follow ups with each client.
Simple and intuitive handling of tables and forms. Scripting is powerful with a straight forward syntax. Powerful collaboration concept based on users and roles. Integration with other software/services via standard protocols.
Documentation is somewhat cumbersome to navigate and not complete. This is compensated by a vivid community and quick service resonses.
I run a paramedical practice and build the complete documentation and management based on Ninox.
Its easy to use , for all peoples that do not have Programming skills, the Support Service is very good. With Ninox my work increase 70% higher as normal. I can start immadiatly . Its perfekt for Startups Companys to get a structure.
Nothing , Because all problems i ever have .... i can solve with the best support Service
Time benefits und Resource benefits
ninox has a great usability, out Team likes the quick and easy UI. The whole system is very fast. Another great function is the overall search, which shows result while typing. For the Admin the best feature the very easy und quick option to customize the system, even a key-user is able to customize it.
limited set of scripting features, i would prefer an option to be able to write plugins e.g. with JS
We started using Ninox as our Customer Relationship Management. After a short time we also use it as Projekt and Task Management with integrated Time Tracking. Later we added a Offer Management for our sales. All that thinks now are interacting with each other, and it is perfectly customized to our business purpose. The Systems grows and everyone still likes to work with it. It's the first time a ERP system gets loved by the team even after month of use and with more complex informations.
• Desktop version is native to the Mac platform, not a port of some mediocre Microsoft spaghetti code app. • Cloud version can be accessed in any browser such as Google Chrome. • Cloud version is empowered through Zapier to connect to other cloud apps. • The Zapier connection is robust, including both triggers and actions in both directions as well as an 'update record' trigger and action missing in many Zapier connections. • Free iPhone & Android apps
Nothing to dislike so far in the app itself, but they need more video tutorials. They only have four right now. I do wish it had tighter native integration with G Suite: • Google Calendar • Gmail • Google Tasks • Google Keep • G Drive • Google Sheets • Google Docs We need more apps bridging Apple & Google platforms.
Data repository on my Mac that doesn't require an Internet connection. Backup to Apple iCloud.
Since I am in the sales business, I like the fact that I can consolidate all my contacts in one place. The ease of using the product is at its best. It is not complicated like the other database applications I have used before.
Probably the only one that I dislike on this program is the separation of databases where I should close one then open another one. I hope there is a way I can compare and contrast both and connect them.
I can store information easily and sort the data however I want. I can easily use it whenever I want.
This product has seriously changed the way I operate my small business. It has also helped me capture information in my personal life and leverage data to become more organized
I dislike that I am very limited with what I can do with Ninox without an internet connection
I recruit in the sports world and have been looking to create my own CRM for years. Ninox made this possible in a month and I continue to tweak Ninox to fit my needs for different events
Ninox is easy to use, very much flexible and greatly efficient, the possibilities are endless.
There are allways small details to improve, but the key features are nearly perfect.
Never been organized better. I succeeded in reducing the outlay and increasing the benefit.
Build a powerful application without complex code with easy to implement json link
The manual is minimal and not very clear
I build crm, project, financial and customer specific applications for my clients
I started out with Microsoft access so I was very reluctant to move away from it. But after starting to use Ninox, I fell in love instantly. I love how easy it is to drag and drop fields, modify the validation rules right there and then, then codes like the one that calculates the age after entering a date of birth. It is so amazing and unlser friendly. It took me one day to create a large database with relationships I imported from my MS Access.
I wish we could design our own reports, because we are stuck to one format whenever we want to print. Suggestions could also be given as pop up.
School database, no problems so far. Had problems printing, but after today's appointment it will not be a problem no more.
The possibility to create tailor-made databases without being an expert. The ability to adapt the layout and scripts to our needs without having external departments involved gives us a lot agility and flexibility.
Reporting should get better, Pivot tables are still easier through Excel. The still missing Undo function comes with a risk of accidentally deleting data.
With the iPad app (in 2015) I was using Ninox to collect and track weekly availability and usage statistics for our SaaS platform which covers 550 test probes in > 190 countries. After switching to Ninox Private Cloud we added managing our whole inventory (hardware and licenses), credentials and SIM cards costs management for or Germany and San Francisco division. We are currently evaluating if the invoice approval process can be mapped to Ninox
