UI Bakery Reviews

Adoption is Fluid

Within 2 months, 75% of our engineering team was using UI Bakery over older internal solutions. Within 9 months, ~80% of our entire company is using some portion of UI Bakery. Nearly any challenge that has come up could be fixed, with little to no effort.

Exceptionally Communicative

From the constantly updating release notes, to the always available live support team, you always know what is going on and have complete support. I have rarely been so close to a solution's full team to foster our use cases into fruition.

Cloud vs. On-Premise Parity

On-Premise is not only available, it is updated just as frequently as the cloud-based solution.

Intuitive Basic Usage

If you are looking to migrate basic business usecases from adhoc, local PC/Laptop, hosted soulutions so that you have a more controled environment, UIBakery is impressively fast and can make you look like a rockstar.

Attractive Licensing Model

One of the primary reasons I initially choose UIBakery was due to the unlimited non-editor users license. The balance of features, support, on-premise, and ongoing improvement that you usually see in longer tenured solutions in this space do not have such a pragmatic licensing model.

Growing Selection of Data Sources (Integrations)

Aside from what integrations were available, UIBakery was more than willing to prioritize an integration we needed based on our project. Not only was it prioritized, it was turned around in the matter of a month!

There aren't many, though I believe there is always room for improvement!

Online Documentation

Many of the more fringe UI features/functions have incomplete or missing documentation. Some of this is made up for by the recently added in-app AI support capabilities, and is somewhat mitigated by the exceptional support. That said, sometimes it is just easier to read documentation and/or see examples/screenshots.

External Libraries Support

I believe this could simply be a result of ensuring the stability and security of the solution, though including simple javascript libraries to simplify some coding functions would be desirable.

Complex Solutions aren't as Intuitive

With the lack of thorough documentation to show examples on how to implement basic usecases on each area of the app, you have to become deeply intiment with the product to determine how to implement your solutions when it involves multiple pages/systems/datasources. One could say this is unavoidable, though I feel as though there is an opportunity here. That said, the exceptional support and in-app AI DOES make this less of an issue.

It is paramount to ensure that your company is handling data securely. As a Security leader and professional, I believe it is more important to provide viable solutions to identified risks rather than simply point out the need to fix them. UI Bakery provides us a way to transition less favorable interaction with sensative systems to an easy to stand-up UI. Additionally, there is little to no need to maintain a programming specific skillset to maintain UI Bakery. Other solutions require knowledge of a specific programming language. When/if that language isn't your company's primary skillset, often times your subject matter expert changing jobs can cause a major stall in your ability to maintain such tools. Not UI Bakery!

UI Bakery is a very good tool for highly skilled frontend developers to speed up the development of custom interfaces for custom systems. It especially speeds up iteration, which is a very big part of producing actual ready-to-use in real world applications.

The tool is extremely flexible and can handle very custom needs and requirements. And with features like unrestricted custom components, even the very technically complex elements can be achieved. Vast majority of system UI needs, however, can be met without such custom components. The name for the tool is very well selected, as it literally allows to "bake" custom interfaces ready to use in very quick time.

The team in UI Bakery is the friendliest, most intelligent, and most willing to help. The Enterprise support is definitely worth it. Not only do they attend to our issues fast, but they are highly effective at helping get our occasional problems solved, sometimes in less than an hour. They also listen very attentively to product feedback and actively add new capabilities to their tool on a weekly basis. They have implemented many of our feature improvement or addition requests, and have proactively sought feedback from us.

My only regret is that I did not find UI Bakery sooner.

We use UI Bakery to quickly build and iterate custom business applications.

Before chooing UI Bakery I evaluated Retool, Drona HQ, and a few other visual web app building tools. Each one of the others was missing some kind of feature that disqualified it for what I needed. For what I needed, UI Bakery had the best combination of features, price, and support. From a features side, their app is crazy flexible and easy to work with. If you have any dev experience whatsoever, you'll be spinning up web apps in no time flat! The product is also actively developed-on – they're putting out new significant features basically weekly. Their pricing is also very reasonable. Instead of charging you for every end user of your app, they just charge for the developers with "edit" access.

I'd love if there was a responsive design tool that would let me customize the UI at different breakpoints, so I could adapt it to mobile. Also, all UI components have a "snap to grid" layout. It would be nice to have more fine-tuned control over my app's UI.

We're using UI Bakery to build an internal CRM system. So far it's going great. We've been able to build a system that does exactly what we need, exactly the way we want to do it. It's a nice feeling to be able to engineer a tool around your processes, and not vice versa (like is required when using a commercial CRM system)

Let me start by saying I am a big fan of UI Bakery. I have tried a lot of different low-code UI builders and this is by far my favorite.

My top pros for UI Bakery:

- The UI building canvas is very smooth and responsive (this is a refreshing change from some of the laggy interfaces I've experienced with some competitors)

- The platform feels very lightweight, and things load very fast

- The collection of prebuilt components (although not vast) has all the most useful ones available

- Working with external data sources is very easy to set up

- I think they've hit the perfect balance of low code in UI Bakery. UI Bakery is definitely not "no code". At a minimum you need some basic understanding of Javascript to make proper use of the platform. This is a good thing because I love how there's always an option to write code to extend/enhance the abilities of the existing components.

Currently, there aren't many customizations available to change the appearance of the pre-built components. Things like fonts, borders, and background colors (with some exceptions) cannot be altered. As such, a lot of the apps end up looking the same. I hope that UI Bakery offers us the ability to make more cosmetic changes to the components in the future.

For me, the primary use case for a low code builder like UI Bakery is a faster time-to-market for internal tools for our business. A reliable platform like UI Bakery lets me and my team focus on building essential backend logic without spending significant time building UIs.

It is rare that you work with a company who’s people mirror the best aspects of their product. UI Bakery has a simple interface backed with a complex and helpful team who are truly responsive to feedback. Where some teams shrug an apology for a missing feature, this team will take that feedback and either help you find the right Lego or literally build for you. In the low/no code arena, they are the rising star!

Honestly, the product will get you to a simple product quickly. If you want to get more complex, it needs some work. That said, the team is dedicated to keeping their product straightword enough to be nearly plug and play (for non coders) but are also open to enhancements suggestions (from devs) that will expand the functionality.

The disconnect between your data sources and your UI can be vast without a tool like this to let you to connect simply and quickly. The time it took to hook build my proof of concept was 100x faster than doing it myself and was live immediately!

Ui bakery is an amazing resource for anyone looking to quickly and easily create web-based internal systems. With a little bit of knowledge, you can quickly connect to any number of cloud-based data sources and create workable applications in no time at all. The interface is easy to use which enables you to get the basics of your system in place very quickly. When problems arise, their support team is helpful and fast. If you check the (publically available) roadmap on the forums you will see that new features are released every week. Another major advantage is the commercial model is not geared towards enterprise meaning you can get the functionality you need without spending a fortune (this is a major issue with some of the big players in this space).

It's hard to say dislike - there are things that need improving but every week improvements are rolled out. I have been able to achieve almost everything I needed although sometimes work around are required. As others have mentioned, the getting started documentation wasn't great but they know this and have already started making improvements.

Give it a go. The investment in your time will pay huge dividends in your business productivity. In most cases, you can get up to speed quickly and the support team will help if you get stuck. Integration with APIs makes this an astonishingly powerful tool. If you can't do it yourself - get help. The advantages will quickly become obvious as you can create really powerful automations.

In house system development that is quick & painless and at a price point that is suitable for smaller businesses. By using the in-built API calling functions it is possible to integrate with any number of systems (such as Quickbooks, Stripe, etc) allowing you to create complex workflows and automation that simply wouldn't have been possible without a team of developers and a very large budget. UI Bakery is a complete game-changer for us,.

There is a perfect set of tools and a user-friendly, easy-to-learn interface. The team's support is excellent, with a pleasant, customer-oriented attitude.

We have used UI Bakery to develop a workflow management app and are very happy with the result.

The support team has solved all of the issues we've confronted, so nothing special to report here.

About 30 people use the app, having different access levels and a particular interface for each user group.

The app created on the UI Bakery platform lets us optimize the workflow and avoid data flow mistakes.

Great product, backed by superb customer service and tech support

Lack of documentation, although their customer service more than made up for this!

Build workflow for internal testing, and be able to integrate with multiple google sheets from various sources, means no need to perform any data migration

the clear and easy to use UI. Easy to set up a workflow

the login process - didn't get it till now why to use google oAuth

really nice and helpful support!

build an internal tool for business people to work with data in our database

The support team is really helpful. Basically, they back-sit drive the integration with our dev

We experienced a few minor glitches here and there. But we figured out the workarounds along the way

We build a tool for Ops team
