"Zoho Creator is an easy way to create forms"
What do you like best about Zoho Creator?

A user can start working with Zoho Creator in about ten minutes. It is very intuitive and requires very little configuration. Every time I need to collect data, Zoho is my application for the creation of forms, and it is easy to distribute the forms in a secure way by means of a link, a password or to embed them in another site. Zoho has excellent customizable workflows if you are able to handle minimal programming. If you can devise an application, a business workflow, a business data scenario or anything else, Zoho Creator can handle it. They have previously created applications that can be modified to suit the needs of your business application, or you can create applications from scratch. Basic applications with basic workflow or notifications can be set in minutes. Creator integrates very well with other Zoho applications.

What do you dislike about Zoho Creator?

The user interface is very basic and you could probably use an update to modernize a bit. It would also be good if the user interface could be more highly personalized. I use Zoho Creator mainly to create forms that I send to people who do not require something very nice with a lot of graphic design. If I needed a visually appealing form, Zoho would not be my choice because it does not have many features.

What problems is Zoho Creator solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zoho Creator is a quick way to create a web form for user submissions, for anything from an internal survey, a job-related data collection form or a client website submission form.

What do you like best about Zoho Creator?

Zoho creator is one the pretty cool and useful apps in the Zoho Software Suite. It gives you some formidable power and control to create business applications based on your own custom logic and use case. What makes Zoho Creator powerful is that it ships with some great ready built integrations to some of the most popular business applications like G Suite, Zapier , Twilio e.t.c

What do you dislike about Zoho Creator?

Zoho creator has quite a bit of a steep learning curve to pick-up. There is builder included but to really leverage the entire suite of features, you may need to brush up on your Deluge Script. This is a programming language created by Zoho.

What problems is Zoho Creator solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zoho creator helps bridge the gap between apps for simple solutions you can't find on the market or quite simple to build. We were specifically looking for a solution that integrates Zoho CRM and Twilio to make calls directly from the CRM. We were able to quickly build a simple but scalable solution using a pre-built extension in the Zoho Martketplace.

"Zoho Creator"
What do you like best about Zoho Creator?

Generally the ease of creating forms, web forms and tracking programs. I do not have experience in creating software forms or reports and Zoho Creator makes it easy to do. I have found the support to be outstanding as well.

What do you dislike about Zoho Creator?

This is more about me than Zoho (I think). I have created a student course roster for courses that we offer and now I need to use that information to print certificates and pre-made certification cards. I cannot choose the layout of the certification cards, but must make my form fit their layout. I have not been able to accomplish that task.

What problems is Zoho Creator solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are keeping track of deployed defibrillators throughout the USA and any expiration dates so our customer does not have to worry about it. We are also close to using it to help manage our first aid cabinet delivery and inspection service. Would like to use it for class registrations and rosters, but need to work through the certification card issue first.

"Build Applications With A Point and Click "
What do you like best about Zoho Creator?

Compared to other App Creators like Microsoft PowerApps and Salesforce Lightning, Zoho Creator performs much better. I spend more time customizing than building the app I need, which is awesome and a great time-saver!

What do you dislike about Zoho Creator?

It would be great if there were more styling options that I could point and click to be implemented. So programming skills are still valuable to build a powerful application.

What problems is Zoho Creator solving and how is that benefiting you?

With Zoho Creator I can build simple applications without wasting money on new SaaS or developers for simple project. It's really hard to get quality applications for simple apps that help me with contacts and sales managment. So I don't want to waste a lot of time finding a developer for a simple project I'm not willing to overpay for.
