I like the ease of use and the resources provided. The forum is also beneficial to problem solve.
Coding is great but not as free as usual coding is. I hope they expand the equations/coding formulas in the future.
Supply Chain tracking across 5 different channels. Has allowed each department to communicate with each other effortlessly
MOST HELPFUL IS THE CUSTOMER SUPPORT THAT IS ALWAYS A REAL HELP.
AT TIMES THE HELP CENTER HAS OLD INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE AND IS NO INFORMATION ON HOW TO GET UPDATED INFO, SO I HAVE TO ASK THE HELPDESK FOR HELP.
MY COMPANY RUNS AN ONLINE PORTAL THAT OUR EXTERNAL CUSTOMERS USE TO GET INFORMATION ON THEIR CLEINTS. THIS IS A GREAT HELP TO THEM AND TO US AS WE DON'T HAVE TO SPEND ALOT OF EXTRA TIME SENDING THEM THE INFORMATION THEY NEED, THEY ARE ABLE TO ACCESS IT FOR THEMSELVES. AND THEY LIKE HAVING THAT AUTONOMY.
The best part of Caspio is the fact that there is no need to code anything other than to learn how to click and select the features that you need!
One area that needs improvement though is the layout of the User Interface. It needs to be intuitive so that searching and fumbling can be avoided.
Being able to port an excel spreadsheet to a website where any user can search for their specific data is a tremendous time saving benefit!
Caspio is a very efficient method to develop an MVP. And can easily be integrated into a published website. I like the fact that there is a huge amount of training, and how-to videos. Caspio is pretty intuitive and any time I run into an issue I have been able to get customer support to help me through the issue in a reasonable time frame.
Lets say you need to add a question to a form. It automatically goes to the bottom of the form. Then you have to click the up arrow to move that question up one row at a time. On long forms this becomes really redundant and cumbersome. If I could easily add a question to the middle of a form by dragging and dropping that would be great. Or if I could select multiple questions at once and move them all at once that would also be great.
I needed to rapidly build a database that people could sign up to and enter various types of data. I needed to do this with no other team members and for very little overhead. I have been able to do that. There is so much more functionality on Caspio than I am currently using so that is great to know there is more for me to grow into.
Basic funtionalities for creating an application are very easy. Caspio is convenient to use and it's easy to create a new application from scratch very quickly.
Downsides are related to the fact that it's a low code platform - which means you should choose other options if you aren't looking for a low code solution. Price for the easy entry is limitations with more complicated systems.
Most valuable features were related to built-in features like registration and account management. These made it fast to create safe systems for users that are handling sensitive data.
very easy to use and great database foundation
nothing that comes to mind. solid pacakge overall

Caspio has a very intuitive user interface that makes building reports easy. I also like the different methods we can import data; FTP, Dropbox, and API. It's also nice I can use SQL commands and functions. If you like relational databases, you're going to love Caspio, extremely easy to pair multiple tables.
I've noticed reliability issues with Caspio's API, especially under heavy usage.
We use Caspio for reporting, data management and agrregation, and it powers many of our internal and consumer-facing apps.
Excellent Solution on reliable infrastructure with outstanding Customer / Technical Support. I have yet to come across a single ask from my Customers that we were unable to provide with Caspio Bridge.
Nothing to dislike, I wish we had more Vendors like Caspio Bridge.
Custom ITSM (ticketing) solution for Operations with "somewhat" complex workflows, including various Centralized Data Repositories that gives us a great handle on our Infrastructure. A few years back, I shared the Workflow with a major ITSM Vendor, who said I would be better off designing and building the proposed solution myself. (Little did I know that it would become a reality.) The custom design was implemented with Caspio Bridge within a month.
I love the advanced functionality without the need to be a developer.
I wish there was a better dashboard interface built-in. In addition, I wish it was easy to make my database graphical for our users.
We are finally keeping accurate track of our historical milestones and weekly event information and making it available and searchable to the public.
The best thing about Caspio is the fact that you are able to create a solution for your business without having the coding background it would require otherwise. Their low-code platform has allowed me to create multiple applications and a fixed & low-monthly rate.
When uploading a spreadsheet to create it into a table there is a max amount of lines it can have. (My main data table is greater then the number they allow)
I created a CRM solution using the platform.
Ability to design complex interlinked data tables. Very good customer support.
Difficult to deploy behind client firewalls
Ability to interlink and visualize multiple datatables.
Ease of use and toolsets. It allows us to react quickly to our customer's changing needs.
DataPage Editor could be made more programmer-friendly.
We love the quick turnaround time from design to implementation. We have created a robust Web Portal for our customers.
I like how easy it is to create basic applications; most of my tasks require more than just creating an email form. The training and documentation I've been provided over the years from Caspio has given me a new service to offer my staff building my job security.
There is a steep learning curve for doing more complex actions, and the documentation is sometimes out of date due to the updates Caspio rolls out. However, Caspio is now doing weekly webinars, showing a weekly topic, some of which are very complex.
We need applications to capture information on projects we have, contracts, & events. We also use Caspio to create basic forms throughout our fleet of websites. We keep finding new uses for Caspio and it's been a great value to have over the years. The biggest problem Caspio solved is having to spend 10's of thousands of dollars with developers to make applications I can create within a few hours now in Caspio.
Without knowledge of sql and database building, Caspio provides a great opportunity to build the solutions you dream about. I have never met such great support anywhere else. Whenever I am stuck and need a helping hand to achieve whatever I need to achieve, Caspio is there 24/7 with an expert within a few seconds.
When coding directly in Caspio it becomes clear that there are some custom programming language in Caspio, so that traditional sql isn't always an option.
Comparing and importing (CSV and API) statistics from several hundred locations. These data are presented to end-users via a Wordpress-site, but Caspio also gives me as an admin a tool to easily set up custom calculations whenever I need to understand new numbers.
Caspio is very intuitive and easy to use. We use Caspio to complete web forms that are necessary for completion of our job.
I wish there was a way to suggest edits through each form link rather than having to notify the employee responsible for publishing the Caspio links.
Caspio allows us to finalize our post-auction processes.
I like how user friendly this software is!
I dislike some in the capability restrictions for more advances databases
To create more user friendly and engaging online databases
Availability, ease of use and scalability
Its boundaries, like no user ability to create and manage scheduled email triggers.
We have successfully used caspio to create simple apps and forms. We have used it with our WordPress intranet to implement business processes and serve dynamic content to employees.
The online resources are very helpful and provide the info needed to create an app even for a non-technical person. When we have needed support, the customer service has been great.
I have been very happy. I don't have any dislikes to report at this time.
We moved away from spreadsheets. When we were using spreadsheets, we would have to make updates in several places. Now, we update info in one place and have a history of changes.
The platform is simple to use and requires no IT Support.
The UI/UX is somewhat outdated when compared to competitors in its field.
We needed a platform that's HIPAA compliant and easy to implement, manage and maintain for an entry-level workforce. It would have cost our Development team thousands of hours to develop a similar platform and take away from our core roadmap.
Caspio's platform is well designed and provides pretty much everything you need to quickly create database-centric apps. If you are not an SQL whiz they got you covered with powerful click & drag elements that allow to build pretty complex SQL commands. We have never had a problem with deployment on our sites and it provides fast DB access. Just be sure to normalize your database! The ability to embed JS and HTML within HTML BLOCKS has been a tremendous benefit for us as well. With these options there really is very little you can't accomplish within your datapages.
Caspio's trigger and task development environment can be challenging when you begin to develop beyond basic DB tasks. We have found that variables are not your friend in this environment as they tend to really "bog" down the performance of development. Caspio places limits on how many cascading "triggers" can occur within each script and this has caused us some headaches in working around this limitation. An update to the task and trigger environment last year improved performance tremendously but subsequently, there are quirks now in the interaction of the canvas. For instance - after working within the trigger or task canvas for a while a shadowy blur will begin to cover areas that you have worked on. While this does not prevent you from continuing it is very distracting. Regarding the overall management of your assets, you cannot create folders for any of your assets except for datapages. It would be beneficial to be able to organize all of your assets into folders as larger apps will encompass dozens of tables, views, localizations, styles, etc. You also cannot create dynamic global variables. They have to be static only. This means you cannot set a variable in one trigger and access it from another. This could be a limitation of SaaS development but for us, old school developers, it has been frustrating.
We have developed a Scheduling and Resource management system for the medical industry using the Caspio platform. While it has had its challenges we feel this platform was a good choice for us even with its sometimes head-scratching limitations, as you really can get things done quickly. it is a low-code environment and those imitations do get in the way sometimes but we have been able to work around most of these. On the other hand, it is the low-code design that has allowed us to get many functions completed much quicker in addition to having less experienced developers assisting us. Once you get used to the concepts and get over the realization that you have to develop within a very structured environment, there is very little you could not accomplish. Support - While the user community support forum is hit or miss on getting assistance, Caspio's support team has always been very responsive with the exception of just one issue that they keep telling us "they are working on". That issue is not affecting our development efforts, however. Product Management is responsive and pricing, while cleverly designed to get the most $ out of you as possible, is still reasonable IMO.
