Zoho Creator Reviews & Product Details

Zoho Creator feels like having a full development team in your pocket. What impressed me most is how quickly I could turn rough business ideas into fully functional apps without touching heavy code. The drag-and-drop interface is simple, but the platform doesn’t compromise on depth — I could add workflows, integrate with Zoho CRM, and even connect external APIs in just a few clicks. It’s rare to find a no-code tool that balances simplicity for beginners with power for advanced users, but Zoho Creator manages to do both. For me, it’s not just an app builder, it’s a productivity multiplier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

sometimes feels a step behind the desktop version — especially when managing complex workflows or larger datasets. I also feel that onboarding new team members could be smoother; the learning curve for non-technical users is small, but not zero. That said, Zoho’s documentation and support community are improving steadily, so these are more “areas for growth” than real deal-breakers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The speed at which i can prototype and deploy complex applications is amazing also the ease of connecting with the entire zoho ecosystem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software is clunky and takes some getting used to, and the dashboards need major customization to be effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Zoho Creator helps streamline our invoice approval process at my organization, since each invoice requires 3 levels of approval before submission. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The level of customization and support is very limited, according to my recent experience Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Over the years I've come to use Zoho Creator quite extensively and it's been a massive hit for me. Zoho Creator puts time, ease of use, and just the ability to focus on your creative input, right in your hands.

Recently, I got abit bored, so i picked up laravel to develop an app I had already built with Zoho Creator. I wanted to see how long it would take me to get it up to the level I had done on Zoho.

It took nearly 3 months to get that app up to production level. That's something I had setup and ready in Zoho Creator in less than two weeks! And thats only because I lazied about while working on it. It should have taken no longer than a week.

The cool thing about Zoho Creator is, you don't need to be a tech guru. The drag and drop UI kits is adequate enough for a lot of tasks. And if you got even the slightest development knowledge, then the Deluge engine is so easy to use, you'll feel as if you've used it before. This in particular helps me to get around certain problems i can't solve using the drag and drop or built in functions.

I've developed alot of apps with Zoho Creator. From Terminal Operations App, to Asset Management, Warehouse Management, Restaurant App, Access Control, EDI for Shipping, etc.

I've also integrated Zoho with other Workflow apps like Kissflow, to access external data via API. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Well I think they'd need to take the UI experience up a notch or two. While full control of UI features in apps like Zoho Creator is typically limited, I think they can raise the bar, and allow developers create truly bespoke looking apps doesn't just function to design, but looks and feels like a premium app, especially on moble.

Easy to Use: It is easy to use as it provides drag and drop elements, by just watching the videos you can create applications, no need for coding background.

Ease of Implementation: You can make and change applications quickly with Zoho Creator, which is great for getting things done fast.

Works Well with Other Zoho Apps: If you are using other Zoho apps then using Creator is great as it has easy integrations.

Good for POC: You can start with basic applications and make them more complex as your business needs change and grow, can be used to pilot a new product as it is cheap and does not need development team.

Pre Built Templates: Zoho Creator gives you templates for common business tasks, so you don't have to start from scratch every time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limited Customization: It is easy to use but it has limitations in terms of customizations compared to traditional methods, any unique requirement might not be met using this.

High level application: Creating a simple application is easy but can not rely on Zoho Creator to create a high level application.

Limited Third-Party Integrations: While Zoho Creator integrates well with other Zoho applications, its integration options with third-party services may be more limited compared to some other platforms.

Customer Support: Zoho Support is slow and when you connecting two or more Zoho products resolving bugs and across product customization creates confusions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part of Zoho Creator is its no-code platform, which allows us to create applications for our businesses based on our needs without having to write fixed lines of code. It is also an easy way to get data from forms and make graphs from them, as if you had several forms that were linked together and you could extract information from all of them.

I enjoy the drag-and-drop capability for creating forms and deluge, which is minimal code programming that makes coding simple. Zoho Creator enables any organization to have better flexibility in their operations and grow their processes with easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm having a lot of issues with API integrations; it's tough to know how many requests I can make, which makes it difficult, and I'd want to have picture compression in Zoho itself. We cannot write JavaScript with HTML on the pages; it only enables us to write html and CSS codes, yet there is a new feature called widget that allows us to make pages with JavaScript.

Ease of use, the flexibility to prototype with a single user and subsequently release to the market, as well as the capacity to scale up and down account levels, solid community support, and decent professional support teams are all desirable. I appreciated the built-in templates that we can use as a basis, how it works with multiple wireframes, and how we can construct platforms for customers without any hassles or scripting. What I appreciate best about this program is the ease of use and resources accessible, which allow a user with no expertise in application development to build an application that meets their needs at the time.

We've encountered latency issues or random crashes in some browsers, and the team is trying to address them. I'd want to see more module settings available to the author so we can keep creating with them. When designing the dashboard, it might be difficult to comprehend since measurements are not calculated in a generic method. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
