"The best internal software Builder"
What do you like best about Retool?

Easy to work with and make adjustments when needed, the software team for my company find it easy to adjust as per feedback from all associates. Great integration with already existing tools and software and has been easy to roll out and implement within the business. Me and my team use various retool tools on a daily basis and they have great customer support if we run into issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Retool?

Would benefit from themes or ability to expand on colour pallete. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful UI tool for developers"
What do you like best about Retool?

Well designed both visually as well as technically. Intuitive design that makes sense to someone who is familiar with front-end development. Flexible enough to serve a wide range of needs, but rigid enough to ensure best practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Retool?

There's definitely a learning curve. Was super frustrating at first but after grinding through mistakes for a week, I got the hang of it and now I'm flying.

You can be non-technical but it's really helpful if you know how to code and understand front-end concepts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a dev, it can get a little clunky with a lot of the lower level stuff abstracted away. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
