Vinyl Reviews & Product Details

The experience and interaction with the Vinyl platform is a real game-changer, as it allows us to deliver results in very short rapid timelines. The client engagement and experiences are vastly improved, with the ability to showcase outcomes quickly. The ability to upskill team members on the platform is quick and easy, and the data-centric approach is brilliant.

The downside is the potential resistance from old school developers who are used to build from scratch approach. The Vinyl platform provides them with a proper re-use approach to code development.

Our primary outcome with leveraging Vinyl is to deliver solutions in weeks rather than months. In addition, due to the ease of use, we can upskill team members quickly and address the fundamental skills shortage we have in our marketplace.

I like Vinyl's ability to connect to various data sources/systems and show data inside a single application, so there is no need to switch applications constantly.

There is a pretty steep learning curve before you can develop a little bit more advanced applications. However, their LMS and documentation are very well structured, which helps a lot while learning.

Instead of hiring developers to develop custom applications for each business need, with Vinyl, you get a solution that enables you to create every possible application quickly inside a single platform. Compared to similar solutions on the market, their pricing is very affordable.

We use multiple Zudy applications to power a number of unique elements of our media business. VINYL allows us to aggregate key intelligence in a single place, simplifies our employees' workflows, and powers crucial reporting to pull it all together. Our awesome architects help us make the most of the VINYL platform - can't say enough good things about the Zudy team. Don't hesitate to use VINYL to build your next custom application!

That I don't have more time or budget to work with Zudy!

We are managing complex rate cards and non-traditional "inventory" for multiple teams that previously had very few software tools. No other solution had the level of customization needed to run these sides of our business.

Vinyl has a very productive user interface for application development and takes away many of the time-consuming data-processing and security management development tasks. Designers can therefore focus on the business requirements and develop fully working applications within days. Do you want more than the comprehensive standard functionality? No problem: they offer full integration with HTML, Javascript, external programs, and with most external databases that can be mixed and matched. What impressed me as well, is that you can design your user interface to such a level, that we now use the same application design environment for the back-office as for the visually attractive smartphone APP that is used by our members. This design environment is complemented by a support team that is both responsive and friendly, and, more importantly, focused on producing the functionality that you want to achieve.

Basically, there isn't anything that I dislike about Vinyl. It takes a (brief) learning curve to split every functionality up in a database, a logic (business rules) and a user interface part as many of us are used to seeing each program as one complete item, but when you experience the productivity gain that is achieved with this 3-way split and develop more functions, it becomes like bread and butter: easy and you can add any layer or request that you want.

I started with a request for a smartphone APP. A development friend with over 20 years of experience in 4GL's advised Vinyl, but I was very hesitant because the smartphone APP was for our customers and an attractive UI was the number 1 requirement. So I started with hesitance but was fully convinced within 2 weeks. Now we are moving also our back-office development to Vinyl. For new functionality, it proved to be quicker to re-design in Vinyl than to adapt our existing system.

The ease and ability of standing up Production-ready apps on the fly!

Better Release Management (or at least a more formal system of promoting changes form Dev to QA/Prod)

Ad Sales Campaigns, CRM, Inventory, and advertisement trafficking

Vinyl is highly flexible and customizable making it the perfect solution to integrate into our unique global business. Through the Vinyl platform, our team members can architect and deploy turn-key applications that enable them to work more productively and spend time on value-added tasks.

We are a happy customer at this point in time.

Vinyl has helped our organization solve problems across Accounts Receivable, Internal Controls, Sales, and Financial Reporting. A huge benefit of the Vinyl platform is it aggregates data and information from multiple solutions and shapes it into a format that is easy to digest and use by the end consumer. In addition, our organization has become less reliant on managing our business through MS Excel spreadsheets which in return has enabled our employees to work more efficiently as the applications are tailored to their day-to-day operations.

My team has found Vinyl to be intuitive and flexible. We were able to learn how to use Vinyl quickly to both rebuild and create multiple new applications in a very short timeframe. Vinyl has significantly changed the way our team delivers applications both internally and externally and has dramatically reduced the time for our team to deliver better applications. Over the years, we have worked with many vendors and consultants on application development, but none of those companies even come close to Zudy’s support team. Our support leads are extremely responsive and accommodating with their time—they have really helped us learn the platform and methodology. They have also been very helpful to provide solutions to some of the unique needs in our applications. We really can't say enough about Zudy as a company.

Any platform will have elements that may not work for your specific business requirements, but given how responsive Zudy has been to find solutions, it is difficult to find anything major we truly dislike about Vinyl or Zudy. Vinyl inherently is very intuitive and flexible and the support program certainly augments those aspects.

We are using Vinyl to address multiple business needs both internally and for our customers in the Healthcare Supply Chain data analytics space. Internally, we have built our Corporate Business Intelligence platform and contracting operations application with Vinyl. Our business requirements are not typical, but Vinyl enables my team to adjust and meet those requirements where other platforms could not. Our customer facing apps provide Hospitals and Health systems with insight into their supply chain operations through analytics. Our apps are designed to help our end users save their systems money.

The detailed process of breaking down our operations

Doesn’t sync in real-time with our systems but this is our internal flaw.

Vinyl is helping us to make extremely time-consuming processes faster and more streamlined for the many parties involved. We will have more time to focus on quality and improvement.

no code, quick deployment, API support...

needs to be able to work off line and sync data when on line!

They listen to your needs and execute it perfectly.

I have absolutely 0 complaints about Brian or Isaac.

We are in the process of building a new platform for our field service program, the changes we have discussed and the implementation of this new application will be tremendously beneficial for day to day operations for our company.
