The pricing is very reasonable, setting up, using, and managing the software is reasonably easy. Extra points for the ability to set up a nice interface for users with different classes and permissions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When using calendars, each appointment counts as a record, which can add up pretty fast. Customization could be pushed further, especially for alignment and text formatting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Knack is one of the best no-code DB out in the market. The UI is intuitive and I find coding very boring sometimes, Knack came to the rescue. You can customize the UI as per your specifications without involving your boring IT team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not a lot of options to reach the customer support over chat or call. Just email. Hit send and wait for few hours till they respond. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Knack is an incredibly fast, powerful, flexible, and reliable tool that has completely transformed the way we run our small business of approx 40 employees. We built one central system on knack to manage all our data and operational processes (company-wide) in one spot online. The transparency, efficiency, and ease of use has been a game changer for us, and I honestly don't know how we would operate without knack at this point. You don't need to be a coder or super techie to understand and use knack, it is very intuitive and well designed, and super adaptable to most scenarios. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Every now and then I will run into a small limitation or want to customize something that I can't. Overall, the functionality covers the bases for what I need to do the majority of the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The idea of designing a platform of attendance/note taking. It is straight-forward Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I feel the appearance could be better. The flow is there but looks, not really. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Knack is an online database application platform that is superb for creating our database objects depending on our client procurements. It is easy to migrate our pre-existing databases to Knack with its import feature, which ensures record mappings and key validations. Querying is very simplistic, and its backup occurs regularly, thereby ensuring database latency & integrity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It provisions inline editing so that we can edit our records simply by click and edit rather than reloading the platform to reflect the changes. I don't find anything to dislike about Knack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No User Limits - Most database softwares count customers as users. So if you build a customer dashboard, where each customer has to register can get really crazy. This is one of the reasons we first started using knack because we can have 10,000 customers access their accounts and it's still the same low price.

Build complex databases with very little code knowledge - Every business is a little different, but organizing your business and creating processes around different stages is super easy. If you connect it into something like Integromat, you can sync informations across all your systems and have lots of complex triggers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Knack requires some getting used to to build stuff. It's very rigid in how to associate data, so you need to do a lot of work arounds to do some tricky things. Almost anything can be done, but it is not always intuitive on how to do it.

As objects get larger with lots of fields, latency errors start to occur within the api causing lots of errors.

Update 1 year later: We've continued to work with knack and build other applications. However, the 503 Upstream errors has made me change my mind about recommending it to others. We are using Integromat to move data between softwares and into knack. As we've built out our applications and added functionality the upstream errors have become unbearable. On one day this year we had over 100 upstream errors. We have tasked an employee to review and resolve these errors but you can imagine that doing that across 100+ scenarios would take up almost their entire day.

The purpose of building an app is grow it in functionality as your business grows. If Knack is your primary database, you will no doubt at some point need to manipulate the data or add records from outside resources. If this is your intent, then I would else where.

Having such a vast amount of information all in one place and being able to keep it organized Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cannot fully search the data in every way that we'd like, while there are many unused search functions that I would gladly trade off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've looked at many online database providers, and I kept coming back to Knack because of the ability to have as many users as I want without any associated costs. My app has hundreds of users, and it costs me nothing. Every other database solution I evaluated charged per user. I also like the ease of use. I don't have to manage the API or the security of the system. Knack handles that, which frees my time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like that you can't see the internal IDs and foreign keys. Knack handles that behind the scenes, but it would be better if you could at least see them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I needed a database for the company I am working with to communicate site updates between office and site personnel. I enjoyed the ease of creating a live database from scratch. Without coding (or any knowledge of coding languages). Just had to spend a couple of minutes surfing around the tutorials and here we go, had a completely working database up and running. It is compatible with most phones, iPads, and computers. So I did not worry about compatibility. Most of the functions I required and the pages I needed were straight forward. The help section and tutorials are amazing. You can create forms that send auto emails to your users or your clients. You can also set up tracking so you can track what your users do. And the best thing is, you have a backup of your database every single day. I messed up some data records in a day but was reversed by Knack support team and everything came back to normal. I am absolutely satisfied with Knack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When you want to add a feature, usually it takes some time till Knack Team can develop it. Otherwise you have to use a professional developer, which is sometimes expensive. Also some CSS tools are not available, like changing colors or shapes of buttons, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Knack offers a great variety of webinars that demo which is super useful. It is nice to have access to all-inclusive data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike being logged out from the site occasionally. For a multitasker like myself, I am going back and forth from multiple windows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
