Cloud User Experience Builder for an Agile World
- Rapid app development tool - ability to build a wide variety of web application at speed using point-and-click design tools while still allowing advanced customization using standard web technologies such as HTML, CSS and Javascript.
- Supports agile development approaches - due to it's ease of use and speed, Skuid enables users to prototype and build apps in shorter development cycles while lowering development costs.
- Empowers citizen developers - due to it's low learning curve and configuration-based development, Skuid can be used by business users with no technical experience needed. Applications can be built, deployed and supported without the need for developers.
- Additional documentation and support - in the early days there was limited documentation and community support. It has improved recently however there could be more help and support in terms of examples and customer support especially for new features.
- Minor issues and bugs - Simple to moderate applications can be built quickly and easily but more advanced complex applications require additional expertise and support to achieve.
- Better mobile/responsive support - Although apps work well in a desktop browser there are limited examples and support of mobile apps. A fully mobile responsive app is possible but not easy to achieve.
- More user interface components - There are some powerful components such as the table component but given the wide range of user interface widgets available Skuid needs to provide more to keep up with other user interface builder tools.
- Skuid has an ROI report called "Total Economic Impact of Skuid" available on their website which does accurately represent the benefits it offers based on a study done by Forrester.
- In order to maximize investment in Skuid it is best to use it across the business to build multiple applications.
- Skuid is able to meet time to market and digital transformation demands as long as there is a commitment and investment in the tool by the business. An proper evaluation should be conducted to ensure it is a good fit.
Skuid is also cloud-based alternative to traditional spreadsheet and database apps that have been build using Microsoft Excel and Access. It offers a migration path from legacy (desktop) processes and databases to a fully web-based applications that can be access by multiple users using their browser.
- The Pros is that it is really easy to get a hang of the page designer, you can make a page in minutes when it would take you hours if you had to program in Apex.
- The pages are easy to deploy to a production environment in SalesForce.
- The model creation is very intuitive, you can very effictively design SOQL query and pull in the result in your page.
- The design/user experience is not the best, it is not very appealing to the eye. Even the different themes are very bland and not very vibrant.
- Skuid reaches its limits pretty quickly when you are trying to make pages that are a bit more involved. You are having to mess with the CSS in some strange ways to make things work like you want them to at times.
- It doesn't really do well in terms of responsive design, a design may look great on one screen and absolutely dreadful on another.
- Skuid really has not had any negative impact it has been positive all the way around. We just have to be aware of the fact that it has limitations and they are quickly met if you are doing complex projects.
