Stackby Reviews

It is really great that it works flawlesly and with a mobile app so I can make changes while on commute. It is improving every week and It is getting really good, even better than Airtable at some points. If you are looking for a no-code platform for your business, this is one of the best options I found.

At this time I can't group rows by cell values and it is very important to me, but I know that It will be added sometime soon, so I am not worried about that at this moment.

I have a contol panel for my business so I can make decisions on the go because I see a big picture of how is it going at any moment and get realtime feedback about finance and projects. Of course, being a no-code platform helped me a lot to get more that I could even imagine without programming knowledge

Stable alternative to Airtable , many features and Power ups allow for deep integrations. Fast access to Database

Need many integrations to gain robust capabilities

Initial Pricing can be intimidating

Workflow Data integration

For an SMB, a true database tool is a lifesaver if you are targeting getting organized and future growth. Stakby checks all the boxes from user permissions to a straightforward UI. Plus it has connector integrations with Zapier and Pabbly.

Analytics and reporting could be better. There are some basic reporting tools but thats the next real frontier.

Capturing records that require multiple inputs. Getting data to be relationally connected. Serving a a primary database with automatic redundancy with GSheets

In addition to the responsiveness, professionalism, and speed of their customer care, my team and I are enamored by the flexibility of Stackby. We have various stakeholders that need different permissions and views. The ability to have one central database/portal - from input to multiple views, to project management and task tracking, and team communication, to private vs. public, to protected vs. editable, is exactly what we've been needing for 20+ years! We used to use one google spreadsheet per client, plus a basecamp project, plus Slack, plus our CRM notifications/tasks and calendar, AND other project management tools. Now we ONLY use Stackby for all those activities! Wow!

Let me answer this by first saying – that the customer care team is attentive, and tech support is fast, which is huge! But we know this because we've had to contact tech support. At the time of this review, Stackby is still a start-up in growth mode. Eventually, because of the management team's responsiveness and commitment, I believe we will interact less and less with tech support.

- One portal to do what previously took us 5+ apps to do

- Ease of communication with internal team and external stakeholders

- Program management dashboard across hundreds of client projects in various phases of fulfillment

- Hand-offs: We have different work teams for the various phases of our project. Being able to "change a status" and have the next team or employee instantly KNOW it's their turn saves hundreds of communication hours for us

- Centralization: The ability to have an online survey/application, that feeds into our workflow management tool saves countless hours of duplicate entries across various portals and reduces human error

- API - connecting the API to our other portals for data transfer and to reduce redundant manual processes

The ability to visualize the data which is not available in common spreadsheets makes it a powerful tool and must have for better productuvity.Small Businesses can have this incorporated in the business flow and they will be in a better position to manage their processes.

the UI can be more intuitive and can have more use cases as templates.

i help small businesses and startups to become productive and stackby helps me in doing so.

I like the ease of use, the great customer support, and the affordability. The permissions are flexible, being able to link rows, share specific views instead of only an entire workspace, stack, or table gives really great granularity of permissions. I also really like that you can create tasks and reminders within an individual row (think Project Management). This is a feature AirTable doesn't even have.

As a new product my dislikes are more of an aspirational wish list. Currently, the software can't import and match records only append, the user interface has lots of room for improvement, and it doesn't have the ability to view graphs or dashboards like AirTable. It also has issue when embedding into external sites. However, I recognize all of this may come as the developers continue to build out the software. So while this hasn't been able to completely replace AirTable for me just yet, it is on it's way.

We use Stackby as one of our main databases for keeping track of projects, community investments, housing, and policy/reports. It saves us a lot of time with the search, filter, and saved views functionalities.
