I really appreciate how Retool facilitates exposing data to a diverse range of stakeholders through a self-service, app-like interface. This capability significantly enhances cross-functional collaboration, as it enables all parties, regardless of their technical expertise, to engage with data effectively. The platform’s ease of use makes it a wonderful tool that doesn't impose limits on creativity or functionality, which I find extremely valuable. The power Retool provides is evident as it empowers a single developer to achieve what typically might require the effort of two to three developers. Furthermore, its robust connectivity is impressive; I'm able to connect with virtually any datastore, making it versatile for various applications. It also efficiently sends information to trigger jobs or pipelines, allowing seamless integration with other processes. Overall, Retool stands out for me in terms of boosting productivity and operational efficiency.

Retool has allowed me to both spinup prototypes as well as extremely functional internal tooling that has given me fine control of the components that I am utilising for the application It's a great combination of off the shelf components, as well as lots of opportunities to use JavaScript to add almost limitless functionality beyond what other low-code tools are able to allow.

Easy to access Rest APIs and BigQuery quickly.
