"Reetool, a tool that always will help with processes to make them easier and compacted"
What do you like best about Retool?

You can take a lot of actions from Retool, from taking control of some user's pages or information, also responding to processes that need a hand by the support team

What do you dislike about Retool?

It's not that well organized so you have to learn the pathways to go to the necessary tools, also sometimes the tools that need to be used it get blocked and you can't use it

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

To block drivers for the stores that require it, or to request a particular assignment for a driver or a customer, it's simple and easy to make this assignment or tasks

"Very flexible if you have the dev chops"
What do you like best about Retool?

I appreciate the fact if you can do it in javascript retool will let you report on it. Substantially cheaper than competition.

What do you dislike about Retool?

Not as executive friendly in that if the C-Suite wants data it isn't easy for them to self serve it as in other platforms.

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

Allows us to provide the business team with clear reporting in a very affordable way.

"Make quick internal tools for power users"
What do you like best about Retool?

As a (mostly) backend engineer, I find Retool to be one of the best tools to quickly implement an internal tool that business users can use. I've never seen a similar tool before, and it blew my mind the first time I saw a demo! The best feature would be the easy switch between staging and prod environments.

What do you dislike about Retool?

Since the initial learning curve is so low, your first Retools will be inefficient. Take the time and learn the Version Control features and how to debug queries.

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

Retool lets non-front-end people create functional websites.

"Excellent tool for quick prototyping and productivity. Easy to use and highly customizable."
What do you like best about Retool?

Retools is very easy to get started with, and at the same time, it is highly customisable, which makes it a very productive tool for creating a Proof of Concept (PoC) of any idea or overall to make any tool or experiment with ideas.

What do you dislike about Retool?

There wasn't anything in particular that I disliked. Some things could have even additional functionality and flexibility points, but Retool is continuously working on the product/platform and improving it with more features and functionality, like the recent Retool Workflows which added a whole new dimension of possibilities!

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

Experimenting with software development can sometimes be a bit costly because there are frontend concerns, backend concerns, system architecture, infrastructure, technology-specific matters, etc. Retool provides a comprehensive, streamlined and customisable development environment to visually create ready-to-use proofs of concepts and products, focusing on productivity and functionality. This saves a lot of time, costs and risk and allows for better software and a much friendlier and more accessible way to a broader audience.

"The perfect capture for Data!"
What do you like best about Retool?

I like that retool is easy to use to create whatever data capture tool you may need. Once its created the forms populate quick easily into a data table that is visible for all users.

What do you dislike about Retool?

I dislike that the Ui is not as friendly, but that is something that can be worked on.

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

Its solving us from using a data sheet to capture bonus for the end of the month, its also saving us from having to use just another google spread sheet.

"Easy to use and fast!"
What do you like best about Retool?

It's straightforward, and I can instantly pull up a customer's device identification! I like that it doesn't consume much RAM and provides several features to adjust user permissions for every customer.

What do you dislike about Retool?

Nothing so far! It's convenient and super fun to use!

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

We use Retool daily to pull up and track our customers' device data. It provides clear insights on workouts and the ability to modify user permissions. Retool makes those daily tasks very simple!
