What do you like best about Forest?

Forest is fast, clear to use and to adapt to our way of working. I use it every day, and it never fails to deliver. I can do practically every action necessary in the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forest?

Some of the actions are not possible, and I missed some specific views useful for my position. However, this is more on the setting part, which I think is more related to how my company implements it. Other than that, I don't have any negative feedback for this great tool!

"Superlative No-code/Low-code Tool"
5/5
What do you like best about Forest?

I've been using ForestAdmin for a few years now and am thrilled to provide feedback on it. Having a flexible and efficient back office tool is a game-changer for my business, and ForestAdmin does the job brilliantly to help us scale.

To start with, ForestAdmin is an exceptionally user-friendly no-code/low-code tool, making it a seamless experience for those of us who are not technically inclined. Yet, it still provides the depth and complexity that developers appreciate. You're allowed to manage your data and workflows without coding everything from scratch, significantly reducing the workload. I love the Workspace feature so much!

ForestAdmin provides comprehensive database support, from MySQL, PostgreSQL, to MongoDB, and more. It is a significant advantage, especially when handling complex data structures. Furthermore, the interface is very intuitive. You can easily create, read, update, and delete records, making everyday tasks a breeze and creat customized smart actions !

The role-based access control system deserves a special mention. The granular user permissions let you control who has access to what (actions, datas...). It provides a robust security layer and ensures sensitive information is only visible to those who need to see it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forest?

However, like any other tool, ForestAdmin is not perfect. While the software is very intuitive and easy to use, the learning curve can be slightly steep, especially for those without a technical background. Some more extensive documentation and a wider range of tutorials and use cases would go a long way in addressing this.

But the customer support is incredible and super reactive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
