"Great solution for data driven businesses"
What do you like best about Retool?

Out-of-the-box functionality means our engineering team spends less time creating internal tools, and our teams can wow customers faster with better implementations, data driven insights, and more.

What do you dislike about Retool?

There is a learning curve to using it...

What problems is Retool solving and how is that benefiting you?

Enabled our engineering team to roll out a geofencing tool in a matter of days not weeks or months. Dashboard to track automated tasks to ensure customer data gets to where it needs to go.

"Quickest way to set up a command and control for your business"
What do you like best about Retool?

Super powerful but super clear and guided: I could always find my way to controlling even the most complex, multi-database setups. And if I get stuck, their community is insanely helpful with both Retool support and other users on any arcane problem in minutes or a couple of hours at most. Even as an ex-developer there's a huge sense of just speed and accomplishment building powerful controls on your marketing, sales and product with quick drag and drop buttons and queries.

What do you dislike about Retool?

Very much in love with it right now - hard for me to pick something I dislike. I guess it could use ways to collaborate with your team inside it - we use the Cord extension for that (admittedly biased!). But it's very neat, simple and powerful really.

What problems is Retool solving and how is that benefiting you?

We've build our core customer tracking & control dashboard with it. It lets us quickly dive deep into 100,000's of customer records, see their realtime data and set settings on them that directly affect our DB, in a way no other system could because any other system would either be JUST a reviewing (no control) dashboard, or it would require tons of custom code.

Retool provides detailed and necessary information all at a click away. The user interface is compact but after getting to know the UI with experience it becomes easier to use each time.

What do you dislike about Retool?

It does take some time to load up. Otherwise, all good.

What problems is Retool solving and how is that benefiting you?

Customer queries and technical support.

"Indispensable tool"
What do you like best about Retool?

Retool makes it incredibly easy to create internal tools. It's hard to understate this. Their platform saves hours of dev time.

What do you dislike about Retool?

The only real downsides are limitations they've purposefully give themselves. The tool is specifically for developers building internal tools. If you're not a developer or you're not building internal-facing tools, then Retool is not for you.

What problems is Retool solving and how is that benefiting you?

We build internal software using Retool. Retool saves us hours of building frontend UI's for these tools. Instead, our engineers can build just the backend and hook up a frontend in minutes.
