"The best way for fast creating MVP and in-house cross-platform PWA-solutions @ SME"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Glide Classic?

Glide is the simplest way to create an MVP or a quick in-house cross-platform PWA solution in just half an hour. You simply upload your usual business spreadsheet, and Glide takes care of the rest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Glide Classic?

I’m disappointed that there is no support for Push Notifications and that the native QR scanner is only available with the highest plan. It would also be helpful to have an Apple ID login option, along with a gateway to both the Google and Apple stores. I hope these features will be introduced in the future.

Response from Darren Humphries of Glide Classic

Couldn't agree more, Alexey! You can build your own software in an amazingly short time with no coding required!

So you know, we have no interest in Glide apps and pages in the Google and Apple stores. This would just add a bureaucratic level of complexity to distributing apps and providing updates.

"Fast deployment with Glide without too much attention to UI"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Glide Classic?

Glide's UI offers out-of-box modern looking UI which doesn't require much customization and designing. A lot of time can be saved so that more focus can be paid to table design, interactions and workflows. This leads to ultra fast deployment. For industrial users like us, UI is not the most important aspect to concern. Designing interface with Glide is just drag-and-place, what-you-see-is-what-you-have. The components provided by Glide are handy and nice-looking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Glide Classic?

Manipulation of multiple rows (records) is very difficult with the current version. It's a very annoying limitation of Glide. No matter what you develop with Glide, no matter how small or big the project is, you will be disturbed by this issue on day 1. Constantly I need to find "creative" workaround for updating multiple rows at the same time. Besides, if the app has many different processes or many user cases, you will have to do quite a lot of page design and modifications (mouse clicks). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A game changer for small, medium and emerging businesses"
5/5
What do you like best about Glide Classic?

Glide is a game changer in office automation, it greatly helps small, medium and emerging businesses to dramatically change the way they operate their business.

No longer will they rely on clunky (but yet important spreadsheets), Glide will supercharge it and can help automate their business by reducing redundancy and mistakes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Glide Classic?

Glide is best for internal automation, prototypes and MVPs (B2B), but not great for consumer facing apps (B2C). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless App Creation with AI Assistance"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Glide Classic?

I like that Glide works well with ChatGPT and Zapier, enhancing its capabilities without needing them, which makes it more advanced. The AI assistance is amazing for someone like me who's not necessarily a programmer, making it easy for me. I love that I can make an app and have it up there on my own, never thought I'd be able to do that. Also, the fact that you can make apps for yourself to help benefit you and make life easier is great. The initial setup was very easy; I just pasted some stuff in, and Glide took over. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Glide Classic?

Sometimes the AI kind of went away for a while. It happened when I was in the middle of needing it, and then I had to wait for it to come back sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless App Development, Needs Better Version Control"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Glide Classic?

I like how quickly and effectively Glide allows me to build and prototype with a very low level of required skills beforehand. I also appreciate how easily it adapts to the device, meaning it works and feels good on any device, whether it's a PC, Tablet, or phone. It gives me the freedom to use any app I build however and wherever I want. This feature is especially valuable in the business I work for, as customers who use the app use a range of different devices. I don't have to personally customize the screen based on potential user devices. The initial setup was very easy too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Glide Classic?

Version control is lacking at least on the plan I am on, which is the business plan. I have to create duplicates of apps regularly so if there is an issue with data, whether it is a mistake when building or an issue on Glide's end, it can be easily reverted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
