Customer focused tech

Overall, Softr is doing the right things in adding features that the community is asking for. Every time I have had a question or needed help with something, the Softr team has been quick to assist with meaningful replies to solve the issue.

PROS

- The best feature is the live read and write to your Airtable database. - Very user friendly - Great customer support

CONS

- the learning curve may be difficult for a newbie. - sometimes autosave gets confused when making updates to your app.

Reason for choosing Softr

Better and more flexible pricing model. More features with regards to live sync with Airtable

Reasons for switching to Softr

Better functionality

It's THE BEST No-Code Web/App Builder right now!

- I was able to build my site prototype and main website within a week after taking feedback from others. - Ticks all the necessary checkboxes.

PROS

- Product is sadistically simple to use. - The plug n' play content blocks available within the dashboard save a ton of time conceptualising a website experience. - Small thing, but they way CTA buttons just magically adjust to the size of text is a superstar feature. - if you're a marketer or entrepreneur, Softr helps you get your MVP up and running super fast. - Biggest of them all, it reduces dependency on the multiple teams required to build you a website.

CONS

- Now that they've made desktop so easy, begs the question - How CAN THIS HAPPEN FOR MOBILE TOO? Maybe we're asking for too much but if Softr achieves this seamlessness for mobile devices, it would render so many other apps useless! - Maybe consider adding a place where we can source and customise illustrations as well.

Reasons for switching to Softr

Simplicity and standardization of website blocks that helps you focus on what's necessary rather than making it all flamboyant.

Build apps quickly and efficiently

Love using Softr to get a web-app up and running quickly. It's easy to connect with airtable where a good chunk of our backend sits. So far no complaints!

PROS

- quick and easy app set up - test mvps with ease - allow internal and external stakeholders to provide feedback quickly - cheap vs. hiring a dev team to build from scratch

CONS

- limited flexibility of the blocks themselves - not a ton of customization in the context of no-code - automation integration would be a huge plus

Great to build, but bad support

PROS

This company offers an excellent platform for developing a low-code, Minimum Viable Product (MVP), a basic marketplace, dynamic website, or portal.

CONS

Their support services leave much to be desired. I have encountered technical issues that take weeks to resolve, frequently leaving me without updates for days. Furthermore, there was a critical instance where their entire platform was inaccessible during a crucial period of my business operations, resulting in my website being inaccessible. As a consequence, I missed out on opportunities for my customers to access my services.

Softr

I can't say Softr is the best website builder out there, but at the moment it's the one that best integrates with Airtable. For my use case with landing pages and Airtable and little visual and functional improvisations here and there, it works fine. Softr however recently raised money and I'm sure in the next few months it is going to improve a lot on the platform in terms of functionality and performance.

PROS

The Simplicity of creating a website, deploying, and making updates in real-time. This is all very smooth. I use Softr for making landing pages that are sent to specific user groups in my Airtable. Softr working smoothly with Airtable makes this a piece of cake for me.

CONS

Softr comes with pre-built blocks, and it's impossible to add additional functions to these blocks. You will find yourself improvising a lot with blocks to make up for its shortcomings in functionality. You may want to add a button within a "Hero block" to have two buttons leading to different parts of your website, but the block has one button and that's it! There's no way around it basically! It can be very frustrating but I guess that comes with most site-builders.

Reason for choosing Softr

Softr integrates with Airtable better than any product out there at the moment. You can access all views, filters, and conditions you can have in a base on Airtable and implement it on your Softr Website.
