Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Utilize AppSheet across our division in sales and marketing to collect data, share data, take surveys, etc.
We collect business growth opportunities, create cross-reference look-ups, share contact info, trade show information, etc. Less than 10 people currently create apps, and about 140 users occasionally make use of various apps, but we expect this to grow.

Pros and Cons

Enables non-programmers to create apps fairly quickly.
The web-based interface shows how the app looks on mobile devices prior to deployment.
Web-based version allows office users to make use of PC instead of mobile device.

Add help buttons next to each function that would explain functions in more detail.
Would like to be able to make workflows run by clicking a button.

Support Rating

There are some simple things I couldn't find on the internet or in training videos such as how do you move to the next row when trying to populate an outbound e-mail from an action. The internet has been asking this question of AppSheet for many years, but the answer is not easily found.

Likelihood to Recommend

AppSheet enables team-based sharing of information to allow quick and easy inputs of data from traveling sales associates. It is not suited for apps that may require interfacing with other functionality of mobile devices such as Bluetooth communication with smart devices.
