What do you dislike about Xano?
Like any low-code/no-code solution, you might lose some customization of your backend. However, Xano has been increasing their feature set exponential

"Most productive backend solution, even for coders & regular DB admin"

There was one thing I didn’t like before: the starting price was $99, the cheapest plan. But now they’ve changed it to $29, so at this point, there’s

"A Backend builder that doesn't require Programming/Coding."
What do you dislike about Xano?
If one wants to scale their backend, it's quite a bit expensive to pay almost around 2500 USD per year.

The ability to build a scalable, sophisticated backend with the ease and speed of no-code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There's really nothing I don't like. I suppose for some use cases, cost may be an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love how quicky I can build even complex logic and APIs for R&D. The more I use it - the more I love it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only negative thing I can say about Xano is the lack of realtime - which is hopefully coming soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
How easy is to set up your database, create endpoints and the logic for each. It's just fantastic! The customer support is amazing as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The free plan could improve, the api rate is too low for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Of all the nocode tools I've tried, from popular Bubble, WeWeb, Airtable, etc., Xano has by far the best and most responsive customer support. Few tools invest as much into their support, Xano's Intercom chat widget actually gets you responses when you need it, and there's also a very supportive slack group. They're open to feedback, and as a developer, that truly allows you to put your trust in them.
Aside from customer experience, their platform is also very robust. We have APIs that work on 10s of thousands of records, and they have not run into any scalability issues. Their transparency into their security posture (Check their security page) allows me to answer to my own enterprise clients easily,
These are true differentiators from the many other tools in the market, which gives me the impression, or have given me the impression that you can't work with them past the MVP stage. Compared to other nocode tools, Xano comes across as a tool that can support serious businesses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Really wish they would tidy up, or have a proper feature request board. It gets messy, there are repeated requests there and it's hard to find features to upvote on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to use and deploy new projects. We can focus on solving business problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The UI could be improved on. Other than that it's great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Xano creates a truly 'ownable' product for non-technical founders/users. Not only does Xano make it vastly easier to create business logic and build applications. The interface provides excellent documentation of the functions underneath each endpoint and the database schema.
This means that end clients have a far greater degree of oversight, understanding and transparency when using Xano over more traditional software development methods. I've found it to be revolutionary for clients without a technical background. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I genuinely think there are very few downsides to using Xano in the applications that I create with it. If I had to pick one, I would say that the pricing model isn't ideal for specific use cases.
A relatively simple application that needs more background tasks, or faster execution of background tasks than available on the launch plan will have a fairly hefty cost jump to the scale plan to achieve that.
That said, honestly, the development time saved would unquestionably more than make up for it in the use cases I work on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I chose Xano for building customer facing apps, where I knew I wanted to have the flexibility to get the UI right to the pixel. As a backend only solution, Xano is perfect for that. But I've seen that Xano can connect to frontend builders like Bubble too.
I found myself up and running quite easily creating the database and endpoints to get and post data.
It was also easy to get emails out with Sendgrid and I did a test with payments through payment provider Mollie. That also went well.
The backend is rich with possibilities for creating variables and loops, which were not always there in other products I evaluated.
Coming from the EU, it was essential to be able to host the data within the EU and that they can provide for a GDPR compliant agreement (from the Launch payment plan and up). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would like to have direct access to the PostgreSQL database, but that's only through enterprise plans which is out of the question for now.
Also, I would like to see easier ways to merge data and text at the server side. It would make it easier to send out more complex emails and create things like server-side HTML or reports.
For the rest, I'm very happy. Xano Chat support has been helpful too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are many things to like about Xano.
Software development costs are excruciatingly high, with no end in sight. Xano enabled us to provide a comprehensive solution for our client to fit their budget.
Xano isn't just a data layer tool: It includes business layer functionality also. Processes that otherwise would need to be done in the browser can be done on the server.
Once your data tables are defined, Xano generates API end-points that include a CRUD activity. Another huge time and money saver.
Security is great also - there are a number of security methods to bolt-down the APIs.
The user community is amazingly friendly.
The final thing is that Xano is constantly being improved. There have been a slew of improvements and updates since I started using Xano, approx 18 months ago, including functionality for team development and improvements to the UI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't have much to say here. There is a learning curve, just as there is with any new platform, but you can learn 80% of the things you need day-to-day quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Xano is very easy to use. For a low-code, no-code solution, we were able to get up to speed fast, create our MVP and release a product. Xano is amazing in powerful features made easy. New developers were using Xano in minutes to hours, not days. For more complex features and usage, the Xano support team provided Loom videos explaining the steps necessary to accomplish the task raised in the support ticket. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some "function stack" elements need to be redone when cloned. This extra work can take some time to get a new function working. A better clone tool that can modify the tables referenced would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
After years of trying to make Airtable into a backend, Xano solved my issues like rate-limiting and authentication in one package. I'm confident that my app will scale, and Xano has the tools to streamline complicated workflows. I use Weweb to build my web app front-ends, and they integrate perfectly with Xano. If I choose to develop a native app in the future, Bravo and Flutterflow also have integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Coming from Airtable, the interface is more intimidating. The database views are the best I have tried for a no-code backend, but they could be more user-friendly. Building APIs is intuitive, but many pitfalls could be solved. For example, you will break connections throughout your project if you need to rename anything (column, table, API). I would also like to see a more graphical API workflow editor, like Make or Weweb show branching paths. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
