Overall Satisfaction with Stackby

As a sole trader with one employee, I am using Stackby predominantly for myself. I use it across marketing, managing sales and as a CRM. I use it so that I can use and manipulate data in a variety of ways - much more effectively than I was using spreadsheets previously. The key frustration is around the number of sheets that I can have and is the only reason I keep going back to other database software.
  • Referencing data from other tables
  • Being easy to use and understand
  • Easy user interface
  • Good customer support
  • More sheets/tables per account and more lines per sheet.
  • Modernising the graphic interface.
  • I am signed out often - It'd be great to force a longer sign in.
  • Positive impact on organising my marketing so I contact advertisers in an appropriate time frame and don't lose hours figuring out what's happening.
  • Positive impact on organising challenges so that people feel more connected and supported, leading to future sales.
  • Positive impact on understanding data so that I can use it more effectively.
I have also tried Ora.Pm.

Infinity has better graphical interface, but nowhere near as many features and the UI isn't as effective (i.e, moving around with keys).

Grist has a much more technical interface and it comes from being more of a database/interactive spreadsheet vs Stackby. Grist has much more functionality in terms of formulas, but is much harder to learn to use and less other functionalities.

Ora.PM is more of a test at a task management app, and doesn't compare - Stackby is much better.

Do you think Stackby delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Stackby's feature set?

Yes

Did Stackby live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Stackby go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Stackby again?

Yes

This is great for running challenges as you can hold and manipulate the data however needed. I use it as an advertising CRM very effectively. Displaying info where a calendar is involved is very useful as it means I can see the dates in date format rather than text.

The scenario where it's less suited is where you need two sheets or ways of displaying a sheet next to each other (as far as I've found) - Such as the way Grist displays widgets.
