Glide cares more about siphoning money from subscriptions than they do providing anything of value. They will be forgotten in a years time, but I do want everyone to know, DO NOT USE GLIDEAPPS! Almost... See more

So easy to start

We manipulated Glide; initially for small apps, and thanks to the different tutorials, and the forum where we could ask questions, we managed to create an app for leave requests. Excellent, and easy to use.

A useful program

A useful program, but only if you have a lot of money to keep the maximum subscription. The update limitation is unjustified. To make a smart program and for it to function normally, you need a lot of updates, but this limitation destroys everything, and forces you to switch to alternative designers that do not have this limitation. Update unjustified restriction. Now, instead of focusing on the main thing, on the mechanics of the program, its design, I am distracted by this limitation, I am constantly forced to think only about this limitation, that now for every next 1000 updates $10 will be deducted. This is a very high price for my country. In general, is it fair to charge such funds for this limitation? Is this limitation important to your designer?

Misleading features, predatory pricing

Misleading features, predatory pricing, may aswell just hire a cheap dev on Upwork and build it yourself. Even though under the access/login screen I chose a Public app, because I then selected "only users in my users table" can login, its now classed as a private app (then why have that under the Public tab?), which you barely get any users for unless you want to pay a redic amount (seriously predatory pricing - it doesn't cost Glide barely any (if any at all) different whether users are private or public). There was no warning selecting this option would make my app a private app, and so I had hundreds of unhappy users unable to access it since it caps at 50 private users on $99/month (that pricing, jeez...) - I now have a quote on Upwork to build the app (which I'll be able to host on a tiny $10/month server) for $280, meanwhile, even the $249/month plan doesn't have enough private users (only 100!) to support my userbase which is around 500 users... so it would cost probably $4-5k+ per year to run my usecase with Glide or you can get it for $280 one-time on Upwork + $10/m for a cheap server - it's laughable these guys are acting like they're making app building accessible... make sure you get a quote on Upwork first if you're only building something simple, Glide pricing is predatory.

An app in 24h …

Glideapps allows an incredibly fast start for developing new apps. It's not yet a full-blown platform, but it already has a lot of great possibilities.
I just regret that the use of customised CSS is only possible in the Business version that is way too expensive for a private app. I don't mind paying 20$/month or eventually 99$/month, but 249$ is not ok.
For the rest, I got the app life with its first screens and functionalities in 24h and 2 months later (having a full time job besides this) it has become an app we use daily for our healthy food approach, our menu of the week, calorie count, automated shopping list and everything you can wish for if you are the cook at home. With that first experience I'm now working on 2 new ideas. Another advantage of Glideapp, I don't make wireframes ... I make the life app immediately usable ... and build from there ... in direct connection with the future users.

The Best

The best no coding platform I have used so far I love the experience and everything most especially after testing so many platforms alike I have realized none of them met my taste like glide.

Great experience to date

Great experience to date. I came to Glide after trying many other 'low code' tools and applications. Glide was a real breath of fresh air, doing more than I needed in an easy, structured and logical way. It is a bit like a Russian Doll, the more layers you explore the more features you find, and it just keeps exceeding my expectations day by day. Looking forward to the forthcoming print / PDF plugin which will complete our application.

This company is really helping people

This company is really helping people with app ideas but no experience of coding, like myself, to create useful digital interfaces to any spreadsheet. Surprisingly easy to learn even beyond the basics.
