"Fast, SEO-Optimized Directories Built in Days with Softr"

5/5

What do you like best about Softr?

Softr made it incredibly easy to build fast, SEO-optimized programmatic FAQ directories in just 1-2 days. The drag-and-drop interface and out-of-the-box Google Sheets and Softr Database integrations meant we could get data in quickly without scripts or bulk API requests. The pages are heavily optimized for SEO, fast loading, accessibility, and mobile out of the box - all things that matter when trying to rank on Google. We built 3 help directories (for Intercom, Zendesk and Shopify topics) and each one was quicker than the last - the final one took under an hour to go live. The platform has improved enormously over the years and now genuinely rivals custom development or vibe coding for building performant web apps at low cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Softr?

The main challenge we encountered was with data management when using Google Sheets as our initial data source - it became clunky for our content team to update and manage at scale. However, once we discovered Softr Databases, this was largely resolved as it made bulk changes and collaboration on the dataset much faster and easier. The platform is also still building out some more advanced features, though the pace of improvement has been impressive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Softr solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed to build programmatic SEO help directories at scale - hundreds of FAQ pages for Intercom, Zendesk and Shopify topics - quickly and without heavy maintenance overhead. Previously we tried Bubble but it couldn't deliver fast-loading, SEO-friendly pages with easy Google Sheets integration. Softr solved this by letting us spin up the first directory in 1-2 days, with each subsequent site taking even less time (the last one under an hour). The pages rank well on Google and we've seen strong traffic results: our Shopify directory alone has 3,625 pages indexed with 13,515 search impressions and 665 GA4 page views. The Zendesk directory has 14,589 GA4 page views. Softr's low-code approach, combined with Softr Databases for easy content management, meant we could build and manage these at a fraction of the cost of custom development.
