Kintone vs. Kure

I recommend Kintone for companies that need the ability to customize standalone applications or to provide a 'hub' to employees as a jumping-off point. I also recommend Kintone for any company that is drowning in spreadsheets, or is using 10 apps for 10 different purposes - you can consolidate everything into one place. Kintone, I think, needs a larger team for customization as your company grows. If you are a small office of 20 people, using it out of the box will likely be just fine for your needs. If you're working with 200 people out of an office, it'd likely be good to have someone with a bit of CSS, Java, and API experience in order to maximize what you get out of it - though you won't need that if you're keeping it simple.

Kure walks you through every step of a project with helpful tips for each question and you never get lost or confused. Great on your 1st project or your 100th. I like it for my quick win, small, and medium-sized projects.

• Flexibility. You can build apps (without coding) to serve a wide range of processes and projects.
• Ease of use. The interface is intuitive.
• Training. There are resources readily available to train new users. Even starting from scratch, I felt like I was up to speed in just a few hours.

• Clarify the process
• Identify causes to problems
• Develop and Implement improvements

• I feel that Kintone is not well enough known yet. This means that other apps/APIs are not necessarily easy to connect with Kintone. Yes, you can use Zapier though for interfacing with other apps.
• It would be great if it could give more customized options to change the look and format of certain things. You can make price quote apps, for example, but have to rely on 3rd party apps or programming skills to customize the look and fields.
• If you make a table as an input field, it cannot connect to other internal Kintone apps for lookups and such.
• I think there is more potential to make more customized data graphs.

• Updating and editing projects
• Adding the updated features

We have been quite happy with our use of Kintone thus far. We looked at several options before choosing Kintone and believe it had the best value and best features, while allowing for complete customization, rather than being locked into preformatted apps that may not address exactly what we need or be more than what we need.

Kintone makes it fairly easy to customize apps to your needs. Basic customization is straightforward and easy to learn. I can also see that there are a lot more customization options that can be utilized and would be able to meet even more needs.

I am very happy with Kintone and support it fully. I think that it is a great place for any company that wants to create a platform for better management. It is easy to use and pretty affordable. It is straightforward and has many tools that can be used by anyone. There are many helpful tutorials available too to guide users

The training was seamless and easy to follow

Everyone has their own tastes of things and way they want to work. Asking them to adapt to the changes with the new tools or apps is always difficult. We would want to start with a very small but best example within the organization, which in our case was that the employees will not be bothered by the bosses by being asked to find the documents, status of the progresses, or major things/requests/projects.

I don't know if this is the right Salesforce platform we used, but it was way too clunky and not built for the metrics we actually wanted to collect. Kintone doesn't have all the bells and whistles of Salesforce, but I don't really need them. For our small organization's needs, we needed something a little smaller and a little more versatile.

Trello didn't allow us to assign as many tasks or upload images as easily as Kure. The cards in which you create are small so it's hard to put as much detail on those in order to completely communicate with the team. The organization of the cards got a little overwhelming and cumbersome

I could see this work for all departments if implemented correctly.

• It used to take us 15-20 minutes to create a quote for a client. It now takes less than 3.
• It allows a few of our employees to work remotely, which was essentially impossible prior.
• We can see raw data for success/failure rates, which we actively use in our employee review process.

• Prevented loss time hunting for equipment
