Overall Satisfaction with AppSheet

It is being used as a prototyping tool for development of applications. This tool has helped us to expand the scope of projects in a meaningful manner without any additional cost. It is likely to be used until we can find a different tool that can be used to generate HTML, JS, or CSS for our final product requirements in as simple a manner.
  • Its quick
  • Its accurate
  • Its fast
  • Scope for improvement in providing SQL-like language to slice and link various tables.
  • Positive is fast prototyping
  • Negative is inability to reuse the generated code and improving on it independently
  • The UX generation is simplistic
We have used AppSheet only for prototyping. We do not intend to use it for any purpose beyond basic work of prototyping. Complex large projects cannot in my opinion be built using this system given the major complexities and workflow requirements of large projects and enterprise-level project management and systems.
Excellent for prototyping and working from simple projects with just a Google spreadsheet as a starting point for the project. It is in my opinion not recommended for multiuser large enterprise scale projects which require a more robust mechanism for handling data and processes. It also lacks the ability to create workflows.
