A solution that fits everyone's needs
Discovering Fibery has been a revelation for me. No other solution could give me that level of customization, that will aligned with any business processes. I can finally close the DevOps loop research-insights-ideas-features-goals-feedback-insights, by linking everything and measure the impacts on business OKRs.
PROSWith Fibery, you can literally manage everything for your business in a single application. Ensure that all the business units are working towards the same goals, but linking everything together. No more silos, you connect and share with everybody. Customization is definitely the best advantage of Fibery. The automations, customizable formulas for metrics and KPIs and third-party apps integrations are also providing an awesome value for this tool.
CONSFibery links everything, yes, but it's a bit complex to learn at the beginning. You don't have to be a programmer, but it is better to be technical to get the full potential of the solution (ex. to build custom metrics formulas or create powerful automations) Fibery made it easier to do so in the past few months though and I guess it will still improve. Only other thing to mention is that the reporting is not out-of-the-box for exec, especially with non technical people. There are many graphs and visualization, but this speaks more for technical audience.
Reason for choosing Fibery
Other solutions works, but you always ends-up with a feature that doesn't do what you need, especially when it comes to metrics calculation. With Fibery, this won't happen, since you can customize everything. When defining metrics to decide what insights/ideas has more weight, only Fibery provide that flexibility. This is very important for prioritization.

Excellent no code offering for PSA
Overall, I really love using Fibery and so glad that I discovered it. The community is very helpful (excellent for an architect with no clue how to script anything). The team is very responsive. The service is very robust, stable and intuitive, and they are constantly improving their feature set. Most importantly, we can structure the data the way we want to. I have tried (in no particular order) BQE Core, Podio, Notion, ClickUp, Monday, AirTable, SmartSheets, SmartSuite, TapeApp etc.. and none of these have both the flexibility and features that Fibery has.
PROSFibery does an excellent job of connecting databases with one of the most robust and intuitive way to create relationships between data. This allows us to build out systems and workflows exactly around how we run our architecture firm versus conforming to how another software thinks we should be running our practice.
CONSThe UI is a little lacking. This is not really an issue when we first started using Fibery, but now that we have dozens of databases and several dozens of views it is becoming a bit more difficult to find things. It is also a bit lacking in templating. For example, Fibery has wonderful automation rules, but it can be cumbersome to duplicate rules across several databases.
Reason for choosing Fibery
Fibery has the best mix of flexibility and feature set. It seems like I would hit brick walls with all of these other offerings.
Reasons for switching to Fibery
Podio was great when we first used them nearly 10 years ago, but they have done little to innovate or expand their feature set since then. BQE Core, although it has its own fanbase, was quite the disaster for us - a perfect example of a software that tries to make you conform to how they expect you to run your business.

Flexible Workspace
Fibery seems to be a great company -- they are very transparent about what they're doing, opinionated about the direction of the product but responsive to feedback.
PROSFibery is a great place to store all our policies and procedures and knowledge around most of the processes in our company. The power of the relational database has helped us rationalize a LOT of processes that used to be all over the place -- we use it to track everything from our annual OKRs to which vehicles are assigned to which facilities, which insurance policies apply to which vehicles, and which government tax account number applies to which legal entity we operate.
CONSFibery is a blank canvas, and although they have some templates, getting user buy-in is a push. I wish they'd have better out-of-the-box support for certain task management features (like recurring tasks), export to PDF, and mobile apps. The ability to use javascript to automate certain workflow tasks is good, but limited by the lack of libraries you can use to interact with 3rd party software.
Reason for choosing Fibery
The quality of reporting, relational data mapping, automation, and combination of documents + databases is the best out there.

from simple to complex
Implementation is and always has been fast. If there were problems, the support helped us directly. The impression is really without exception positive. The cost, the ease of use and the included functionalities are unbeatable compared to the others
PROSAs my title says, Fibery makes it possible to administrate simple data sets, ideas, tasks, etc. but also to create and manage complex issues and structures
CONSIf so, blueprints are still missing to have a guided pipeline for users

Fibery
I love using the product and it helps me a lot in my productivity and in collaborating with others.
PROSI like how I am free to build my own collaboration/productivity tools with Fibery, not bound by the design choices of a software developer.
CONSFibery has very regular/weekly releases of new features, so new things keep coming and have been for years. To be honest there is nothing that is really missing for me right now.
Reasons for switching to Fibery
I liked that Fibery has everything as tables instead of documents. That made a lot more sense to me.

Most flexible and tech friendly
If you're a software developer and especially a data person, you will absolutely love this platform. As a data engineer, this platform is heaven compared to other limited (backed in alternativves)
PROSThe customizability for sure, you are given a blank canvas at start and you have to build the software yourself, the relationships, the data. The built in B.I tool is also excellent, in some regards better than some full fledged B.I tools.
CONSMissing a lot of small features from the competition, but Fibery has a much smaller team, so I suppose they focus on bigger features. My biggest dislike however is that I cannot create templates of data fields, for example "Priority" with 3 options each. I have to redo it for every, single, database.
Reason for choosing Fibery
I came for the price, and stayed for the speed & functionality.
Reasons for switching to Fibery
Clickup became unbearably slow and buggy, but mainly it was the loading and desync issues.

Overall impression about Fibery
We found Fibery as an ideal solution for resource accounting, finances, and team task management. Its customizable structure and intuitive interface allow you to efficiently track resources, manage finances, and organize tasks. Establish relationships between entities to capture dependencies and ensure accurate data representation. Fibery streamlines these areas effectively, but caution is necessary when modifying functions and relations to maintain data integrity.
PROSI have praised Fibery for its flexibility and the speed at which they can develop and modify their database structure. The platform offers a visual and intuitive way to create custom data types, fields, and relationships, allowing users to quickly adapt their workflows to changing requirements.The ability to define custom relationships between entities and establish complex connections. I found it easy to model intricate data structures and evolve their database schemas over time.Fibery's interface has been described as clean, user-friendly, and well-designed. I appreciate the simplicity of the platform, which allows them to focus on their work and navigate between different views and entities effortlessly.The speed of data input in Fibery is generally considered fast and efficient. I can add and edit data in various forms, including tables, forms, and Kanban boards, with minimal friction. The ability to create and update records without excessive clicks or delays..
CONSI have encountered issues related to the fragility of functions and relations when editing the data scheme.Sometimes Fibery offers powerful customization capabilities, it requires careful attention when making changes to the data scheme. There is a learning curve associated with understanding how changes impact existing workflows and relationships, and I suggest approaching schema modifications with caution.However, it's worth noting that Fibery has an active development team that regularly releases updates and addresses user feedback. The platform is continuously evolving and improving, aiming to enhance the reliability and robustness of its functions and relations.

I haven't found anything that comes close - and I've looked
Fibery provides the tools you need to build a workspace that fits your company's processes. As a construction project manager, there are way too many specialized software that create data silos, force you to use their products in a very specific way, and cost an arm and a leg to use. We want to have full access to our data, across all of our teams and processes, because when that data is connected and our teams knowledge and progress can be linked, it gives everyone the superpowers they need to save time and do their jobs more efficiently. And we are saving money while we are doing this. I highly recommend you try Fibery. Just create an account and try replicating one of your processes - you will become addicted to slowly transitioning every single process one by one.
PROSIt is completely customizable to what matters to me and my team. The relational database and automation capabilities are extremely flexible and easy to iterate on. And they have dynamic filtering of relationships that makes using it feel like magic. On top of this, there is constant upgrades to the item(entity) pages - which so many competitors ignore. So yes, you can create different views to see your items in a different way - but when you click on a specific item it doesn't feel like an afterthought - the item page has its own filtered views to visualize its unique relations. Which you can continually dig deeper and deeper into. This makes Fibery feel 3-dimensional where you can easily explore more and find what you need, when you need it.
CONSFibery has a smaller team compared to comparable products. This means some of UI or features can be a little rough around the edges, but don't let the shinier features of their competitors lure you away. Don't be tricked! The Fibery team is constantly rolling out upgrades and communicating with their community on what is important to us. I've had some kickback from teams on UI elements, but the Fibery team is constantly rolling out updates, and I'm sure there will continue to be more UI friendly upgrades that help future first time explorers pitch Fibery to their company.
Reason for choosing Fibery
Fibery is flexible and extremely quick and easy to develop/iterate on. Retool has some nice shinier features, and the SQL connections has a lot of benefits, but I found it slower and harder to define your processes. Potentially better if you already have the perfect process defined and have more time/money to throw at implementing it. But every few months we slightly refine our processes in Fibery or bring on new teams in our company and new processes (all in my free time while doing my normal job). It's just that easy.
Reasons for switching to Fibery
Cost, workspace customization, ease of automations, ease of relation management, and how the Fibery entity pages feel more explorable (3-dimensional) and Airtable feels more flat (2-dimensional).

Next Gen Solutions For Managing Your Venture
Pretty much everything in our digital operations.
PROSOf course people want easy to read reviews that say 'this is good, that's bad, the other is #whatevs" but to do that would be to misunderstand the essence of Fibery - the clue is in the name, it's fibres/fibers to be woven together (fast - no code / low code) & integrated with outside tools to deliver whatever you seek for your workplace management whether you are an individual or like us, a mini venture studio with multiple arms and enterprises all elegantly threaded into one core control hub of interlinked databases and tools in Fibery.
CONSNothing - sometimes we have to think a bit about what we do - but we would much rather have flexibility in operation that requires planning than the stasis of the pre-existing rather static tools on the market which offer solutions but keep you in a box - Fibery is flexibility personified, you just need to think out of the box and you can do it with Fibery.
Reason for choosing Fibery

My Dream Software
I researched about 30 different tools for our company because what we were using just wasn't cutting it. I was about to give up when I came across fibery in some random reddit post. I am so glad I decided to try just one more. It blew my mind, it's like someone took my dream ideas for the perfect software and made them reality.The setup and support process has been second to none. Our team has really appreciated and enjoyed the help we've got from the Fibery team.
PROSFibery allows one to build any workflow they can imagine. Its in-built "primitive building blocks" are very well thought out and intuitive. Many "oh that's clever" moments.
CONSProbably needs 1-2 minor improvements to get to the point that it can replace Slack (in addition to everything else it already replaces).Needs better integration with software tools.
Reason for choosing Fibery
Fibery was the only software that ticked literally every box. Closest second probably ticked no more than 2/3 of boxes.

You can build whatever you want or need
Overall, Fibery is an extremely flexible tool that has helped us streamline our product research process. I'd definitely recommend it to a friend who was in the market for that type of system.
PROSFibery allows you to build a system exactly the way you need it. We use it on our product team to research strategic projects and it allows us to create a system for tracking ideas, feedback, use cases, and more and link all of those things together into a project. This gives us all the context we need in one place from different areas of research so we can make informed product decisions based on all the facts.
CONSFibery is kind of like legos. It gives you all the pieces, but you have to build it! It takes some time to learn and put everything together which makes it not the best fit for a less tech savvy person. However, I find it pretty easy to use day-to-day.
Reasons for switching to Fibery
Podio is the same concept as Fibery, but it's much more complicated to set up and use! Fibery has most of the features we needed, but beat Podio for ease of use.
