Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Cross-device compatibility, ease of use, ability to customize the app to our exact requirements and extremely fast turn around time at all points in the process.
  • TransForm is fast and it is easy to set up new forms. You can build simple data capture screens or really complex ones - including those with hierarchical data. Photos & videos are easily integrated as well as mapping and signature capture. The built-in programming language makes it a powerful tool which can be customised to create "mini-apps". Can be integrated into existing databases and systems. Support is excellent.
  • The system has superior offline performance and capabilities. When you build out the system using this product, you do not have to worry about offline data collection. Without the pain of creating a custom app.
  • The ability to create forms for field data collection in a matter of minutes is remarkable. We also have customers in the same industry collecting essentially the same data, but the flow of the collection process in the field is different for each company. With Alpha TransForm we can customize each form to fit the needs of the customer in a very short time. Adding new data collection fields is quick and easy. Being able to connect to our MS SqlServer database along with numerous 3rd Party software connections has opened the door to improving while customizing client needs. We have tried other options for doing the same thing, but nothing we found compared to Alpha Transform. Fully disconnected, high quality photographs, customizable, and fast made this product a slam dunk for our business. Plus, when coupled with the power of Alpha Software, there is no limit in the power of the system all the while not requiring advanced programming or coding expertise. But if you have that expertise, then you can go as far as your imagination will take you. Customer support is excellent and responsive.

Cons

  • Because the software is SO capable/robust, had a hard time knowing exactly how to build the perfect product. Of course the answer is: the first build is never exactly what you want so you work and tweak until it’s perfect. Each change to our app has made it better and more bullet proof - wonderful experience and attentive coders to help with the process.
  • Like all (powerful) tools, there is a learning curve.
  • User interface builder is different from drag/drop. Once you understand that it uses a different system to create the interface, you can develop fairly quickly.
  • Initially we did have some issues with uploading files with a larger number of photographs (>12). The Alpha team worked through this and made adjustments that has been fully proven in the field by our team.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • There is a no-code platform so it's easy to create what you need without needing to read or write code. It's affordable and there is plenty of support.
  • I like that you can really customise the way it looks and feels to give users an easy interface. Importing data is really easy. I like the workflows that can be built in, especially the emails and notifications. Easy to add customers/users. Easy to learn. Alerts and notifications.
  • Best for mid or small businesses to make digital their solutions. Low coding and with no complexity platform to build a web application. AI-based building structure. To build a smarter and advanced platform.
  • #1- This platform gives Custom application solutions for any business. #2- It enables every enterprise to have an application. #3- Tutorial is enough to understand, no technical process.
  • Zoho Creator needs very low or no coding. It can develop applications on a multi operating system. Zoho Creator platform offers a drag and drop option. It allows for many customization developments.

Cons

  • There is no support for Java so if you want to run Java you are out of luck.
  • Sometimes the workflows and script can be a bit tricky to work out. Would like to be able to upload multiple files or attachments to a record. Maybe some wizards would be good to help with setup. Can be a little confusing and overwhelming - take the time to learn it.
  • I used this tool for 5-6 months, till now no big cons experienced.
  • #1- We had an overall positive experience with it.
  • For beginners, there are not much tutorials available about the Zoho Creator.
