Great software which allows to quickly optimize analog processes. Fits small and large organization

PROS

Very easy to develop forms and workflows. User driven. Allows to deploy apps fast and supports quick changes based on user needs.

CONS

The mobile version needs improvement and is not as user-friendly as the desktop version. A better mobile version would greatly add to the overall value of the software.

Vendor Response

Great Value and Easy to Use

Great, customer support has been easy to use and the staff is very knowledgable about the product.

PROS

Kintone is easy to customize without coding knowledge and offers almost all of the functionality of products that are 5x as expensive.

CONS

Integrations with other programs need to be refined and the ability to reverse a step in the process management system would be really helpful.

Great product!

We have automated our quoting process, our freight shipping process, our purchasing process, and many other procedures with Kintone. If there's a problem, chances are, we can fix it with Kintone.

PROS

I love the custom nature of the software and the ability to customize every app with JavaScript. Offbeat Press is a custom screen printing company so everything we do is custom and we need a software that can keep up with all of our custom needs. Kintone does that.

CONS

If you don't have experience with JavaScript, it can become a little more expensive for various add-ons, but not much. And, at the end of the day, that's not a con against Kintone. It's a con against whoever is building the apps.

Reason for choosing kintone

Their price point and ease of use were the perfect melding point for us.
