Zoho Creator

The app creator that transforms dreams into digital reality.

Commenti: Using Zoho Creator has been an enriching experience. One of the main benefits I have gained is the ability to automate business processes, which has increased the efficiency of my company and allowed me to make informed decisions based on real-time data. It has also been a valuable tool in project management, as it has allowed me to closely monitor progress and collaboration among my team. Also, thanks to its compatibility with multiple platforms, I have been able to access my applications from any device and at any time.

Aspetti positivi:

Since I started using Zoho Creator, my life as a developer has completely changed. This software has allowed me to create custom applications in a short time and without having to write a single line of code. Its drag and drop interface is so intuitive that even someone with no programming experience can easily design apps. Plus, its ability to integrate with other Zoho services and third-party applications gives it an incredible level of versatility and scalability.

Aspetti negativi:

Despite all its advantages, Zoho Creator also has its disadvantages. The learning curve can be a bit steep if you have no prior app development experience. Also, although it offers many customization options, there are certain limitations in terms of design and advanced features. Lastly, costs can be high for small businesses or early-stage projects.

Extremely Versatile - Perhaps Too Versatile.

Commenti: All in all, I would rate my experience as a 9 out of 10. Building basis databases and creating reports is very straightforward and by and large you can do a lot of things with their drag-and-drop interface quite easily. I do admit to not being very impressed with their support, and occasionally we've had issues with server uptime, but their pricing is fair and the tool is powerful. In spite of the shortcomings I have expressed, I still wouldn't hesitate to deploy Zoho again in another enterprise. It continues to drive our daily production schedule with hundreds of projects simultaneously in motion.

Aspetti positivi:

I ran a web development firm for nearly 20 years prior to moving into a different industry, so I knew the power of databases and the importance of them in day to day processes. Moving in to a startup with zero infrastructure, one of my first tasks was to get a production database going. We struggled along for awhile passing Excel spreadsheets back and forth for a few months and quickly outgrew that. I did not want to create a web app from scratch with mySQL. We didn't have the developers, time, or budget to do that. So, I started looking around for a tool that would let me do what I needed to do. Zoho Creator was a perfect match. To be honest, there's not much you can't do with this tool. It will probably handle 90% of what most mid-sized businesses need. It's totally customizable, and their Deluge programming language lets you do special things that most basic web-based drag-and-drop solutions wouldn't be able to handle. To be honest, Zoho is almost too powerful. It fits our needs and we've barely scratched the surface of its abilities.

Aspetti negativi:

The documentation for Zoho Creator is fair, but if you can't get your questions answered through their knowledge base, finding an expert isn't easy. Their support email is not too helpful. And while they do have a database of experienced Deluge developers that you can call on, it seems a little cumbersome to have to bring in a third party. Also, there are a couple of different versions of Zoho Creator currently in deployment. So, depending on which version your account is on, the documentation might differ - the features certainly do differ. It's a very very powerful product, but because it is a closed-source, proprietary solution, you're somewhat at the mercy of Zoho to get answers to your programming questions.

Security flaw within Zoho Creator

Aspetti positivi:

I've been using this app for a couple of years and a lot of my business is based around it. I would usually rave about how good it is

Aspetti negativi:

I have a data security issue with the app. The product claims that your user data is protected, but there is a flaw with the way the dropdown menu data is shared. Lets say you enter some data in one sheet, and want to use this data in another sheet via a dropdown menu. Not only is your data shown, but so is everyone else. This cannot be fixed by profiles / roles / filters etc. I am on the unlimited users plan and this is a serious flaw in the system for me. I have been unable to further develop my app for a month or so and take it to the next level for my business. I have communicated this with Zoho and they have acknowledged the issue and told me a developer can fix the problem. I have paid one of their certified developers to fix this for me - but he just took my money and hasn't been in touch for a month or so. I have made a formal complaint to Zoho about him, but he is still listed on their website as a certified and recommended developer. I have asked numerous times for help and have got no where. I am now just being passed from one unknown support person to the next. I am absolutely fed up. It seems that this issue could be solved in an hour or so, but I have now probably spent over 12 hours of my own time on it and still don't have a solution.

Zoho Creator: Advanced Functionalities for Streamlined Business Process Management

Commenti: Overall, Zoho Creator is a great solution for businesses looking for an all-in-one platform to manage their business processes. It's easy to use, feature-rich, and offers powerful automation and analytics tools.

Aspetti positivi:

Zoho Creator is an incredibly powerful and user-friendly business process management platform. With its easy-to-use drag-and-drop interface, users can quickly create custom forms and reports to streamline their business processes. It also offers a wide range of advanced features, such as workflow automation, data integration, and analytics tools, to help businesses run more efficiently.

Aspetti negativi:

Zoho Creator can be a bit overwhelming for those who don't have any coding experience. Also, the interface can be a bit cluttered and confusing at times, making it difficult to navigate.

Happy User

Commenti: Tracking billing, services, expenses, and clients in one place has made zoho my one stop shop. Great customer service whenever I need it.

Aspetti positivi:

It is what you put into it. I'm happy with mobile access through the web and endless customization abilities.

Aspetti negativi:

Some time so many customizable options can be overwhelming. It's clean, but if you aren't in it regularly and they make a big backend design change... you may get lost really easy.
