Retool

What do you like best?

1. I like the ability to quickly drop a few components and link my APIs to get the desired result. I was so excited when I made my first app and shared it with my team, and it got used extensively.

2. Utilizing data from one component to another is a delight.

3. How easy it is for someone with basic tech knowledge to integrate the Database and APIs and start building the apps.

What do you dislike?

I feel there's room to improve the UX of components interaction. The resizing and adjustment are not smooth sometimes.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

1. It helps me make something that is not part of our product, but it's an ad-hoc requirement for my team, and we don't want to spend tech bandwidth in building that.

2. Retool helps quickly build the MVP, and then based on usage, we include it in our product roadmap.

3. A lot of scripts which were used by solution engineer has been put on retool for general team memeber to access and use, that automated a lot of things internally.
