Powerful ap

Zoho is a powerful and very versatile platform rewarding curiosity and patience. It's a very good tool for people who want tailored solutions without having to hire a development team.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Value for money

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

When it comes to flexibility the ability to build a custom apps matched exactly to the workflow. No need for huge and extensive software engineering skills so the value for money is definitely obvious. The drag and drop interface made easy to start with. Integrations with other Zoho products is also great. The security standpoint inspires confidence (compliance features and data permissions). The apps are accessible from everywhere making the cloud services very well handled.

Cons:

Once moving beyond simple apps, the learning curve is a bit steeper. I felt like understanding Zoho's scripting language and logic took some time. Some interface elements and terminology felt intuitive at first but the documentation is extensive. For more advanced users code management seems to be a bit low. Lastly, the customer support is inconsistent and sometimes responses are generic.

Pros:

Zoho creator is like a white page. You only need a pen to write organizational challenges in a systematic way to fix them. You can own your dream working culture by setting a work flow and by allowing others to follow it. It is open and cloud-based, which also allows to integrate third-party software as well.

Cons:

Need very good understanding on business process and a bit of technical knowledge and lastly keen to learn to solve the challenges.

Reasons for switching to Zoho Creator

To grab the unlimited opportunity , but to include other departments under one software.

Zoho Creator - Rapid App Development

Mostly this has been used for prototyping and proof of concept for larger projects that end up being developed on other platforms. It's great value for what you get. If you are using other elements of the Zoho suite there are good integrations and Creator would be great for adding functionality for the likes of first-line workers in the organisation.

Value for money

Functionality

Pros:

Zoho Creator is an application development tool sold as a stand-alone SaaS product or as part of the Zoho One Suite. Zoho Creator is a quick way to create applications without writing code. You can create forms, reports, pages and workflows largely through a drag-and-drop interface. There is a custom scripting language available for more complex requirements, but most users will be sticking to the no-code features. This is a good solution for collecting data on web forms and presenting it in meaningful reports. Completed apps can be embedded on websites or made available to users within or external to the organisation. Apps created are responsive and designed to display well on desktop, tablet or smartphone. Typical use cases are collecting data for surveys, tests and managing assets. With a bit of practice, you can create functional apps with triggers for email notifications and the like. Zoho Creator can be a good tool for agile teams to use for proof of concept for larger projects that may be developed further on other platforms.

Cons:

Could be dangerous in the wrong hands - ease of use is a double-edged sword. You'll still want to retain control of these kinds of tools; it's easy for enthusiastic amateurs to get carried away!

Not the Creator I Expected

I wasn't able to use Zoho Creator because it's best used on a laptop or desktop and I only work from my mobile device.

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

Zoho Creator would be very useful for large scale business development and for creating things like reports.

Cons:

It wasn't what I was expecting. The name having 'Creator' in it made me think that it offered tools to make creative things like ads or social media posts, but it doesn't. My small business wasn't ready for this kind of software.

Reasons for choosing Zoho Creator

I confused the two and ended up using Zoho Social.

Pros:

You can quickly and easily make a powerful app or database that you can use across desktops, tablets and mobiles. There are a lot of templates to start with or you can make your own without too much of a learning curve.

Cons:

A lot of the template wizards are aimed at solutions for the States and need a lot of changing around if in the UK.

Reasons for choosing Zoho Creator

Zoho has a cost effective route to market and as we use a lot of their other products, we can easily switch data between each of their applications or incorporate data from cloud solutions.

Reasons for switching to Zoho Creator

Microsoft Access didn't have a good online solution and we needed access to all staff via the internet and not just internally.

Zoho creator is giving us those custom apps without the dev bill.

It plugged a hole left by the lack of any commercially available tool. Today, operations are more iterative and less reliant on spreadsheets and manual handoffs.

I’ve created internal tooling for budget tracking, campaign timelines, and approvals entirely custom fitting to how our team works. It’s customizable without requiring heavy coding.

Cons:

The UI feels a bit dated and the app will lag when working with larger data sets. But for normal uses, it feels good enough.
