What differentiates Zoho Creator from other similar products?

Zoho Creator differentiates itself with its affordability, seamless integration with other Zoho apps, and a user-friendly drag-and-drop interface. It offers extensive customization and automation options, making it ideal for businesses looking to build tailored, mobile-friendly solutions without the need for extensive coding knowledge.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My favorite aspect of Zoho Creator is its ease of use combined with powerful customization options. The drag-and-drop interface makes it accessible to non-technical users, but the ability to deeply customize workflows and automate tasks offers flexibility that can scale with a business's needs. It strikes a great balance between simplicity and power!

What do you dislike most about this product?

What I dislike most about Zoho Creator is its limited design flexibility. While the platform excels at functionality and customization, the visual design options aren’t as polished or advanced as some other app-building tools, which might be a downside if a sleek, high-end design is a priority for your app.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you’re considering Zoho Creator, it's a great option for building custom apps on a budget, especially if you already use other Zoho products. Just be prepared for a learning curve when tackling advanced features like custom workflows and automation. It's best for businesses needing functionality over high-end design.

What differentiates Zoho Creator from other similar products?

I have used Microsoft Power Apps. Zoho Creator differentiates itself by offering a more affordable pricing structure, better customer support and there is flexibility of Deluge scripting for advanced customizations. While Power Apps excels in integration with Microsoft tools like Excel and SharePoint, Zoho Creator provides greater accessibility for small to medium-sized businesses with less reliance on technical expertise.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Low code environment makes it easier to hand over the product to someone with less technical expertise which helps in better management. This also helps in building unique apps tailored to your use case without having to worry about deploying additional resources.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I feel Zoho lacks in handling extremely complex applications especially designed for large-scale enterprise needs.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Evaluate your business use case and decide to what level you would implement you app. This tool is perfect for small to medium enterprise needs with less management.

Helps Innovate
