Why App Builder?

The way you approach software development is changing. While QuickBase works as a cloud-based relational software, centering around data, App Builder is a full-featured low-code tool that lets you streamline everything from design to code even for the most complex and data-heavy scenarios.

Enhanced Development Workflows

  • Leverage an intuitive WYSIWYG, drag-and-drop UI, reusable and framework-agnostic components – fast grids, high-performance charts, input fields, buttons, and more.

  • No vendor lock-in, gaining complete developer freedom with the ability to modify the generated code and scale your apps.

  • Quickly manage data binding, handle Grid CRUD operations, customize CSS, tailor themes, and adjust layouts.

Blazing Fast Grid Preview - App Builder

A Strategic Move Towards Productivity & Business Growth

  • Achieving faster time to market by replacing manual coding. Apps that take months to build can be developed and deployed within weeks.

  • Eliminating legacy apps and different tools used by fusion teams, software engineers, and stakeholders.

  • Ensuring better risk mitigation through compliance with regulations, app requirements, best practices, and policies.

Low-Code WYSIWYG Drag & Drop Tool

Innovation at the Core

  • Dynamic AI-assisted processes – delivering AI-driven functionalities such as generating images, data sources, and views based on plain language prompts.

  • Integrating a complete design system – Indigo.Design – that bridges the designer-developer gap, provides usability testing tools, and reduces silos.

  • With out-of-the-box functionalities for data-rich apps, including Form Builder, Remote Data Operations, Query Builder, and Reveal Dashboard.

No More Error-Prone Hand-Coding

  • Craft pixel-perfect, enterprise-grade apps. Start with a blank template, customize one of the sample apps, or use the Figma UI kit to turn designs to code.

  • Forget the spaghetti code. Easily generate production-ready code for Angular, React, Web Components, or Blazor in a click.

  • Democratizing code and allowing citizen developers to actively participate in software development on a single platform.

App Builder provides flexible subscription plans with on-prem and embedded versions, a multi-year discount, and a 14-day free trial. On the other hand, QuickBase’s pricing structure can be expensive, especially for small businesses or startups with budget constraints.

App Builder has an easier learning curve compared to QuickBase thanks to its drag-and-drop UI, a complete WYSIWYG app-building experience, and reusable components. There are also different how-to articles, step-by-step guides, video tutorials, regular webinars, detailed documentation, and more.

While both tools have strong capabilities, App Builder stands out with:

  • Faster prototyping and iteration thanks to its WYSIWYG drag-and-drop interface.
  • Production-ready code generation for popular frameworks (which is something that QuickBase doesn’t offer at all).
  • Pre-built, drag-and-drop UI components that are easy to customize.
  • Gen AI functionalities that improve automation and speed up the app-building process.
  • Seamless data binding and optimized for handling large data sets.

What’s more, our low-code tool also allows users to develop an app by using a blank template, by starting with a feature-rich sample app that can be further customized, or by converting Figma files to code in a click without extensive manual coding.

Because of its cost-effectiveness, features, online developer community and resources, code flexibility and licensing, App Builder is the go-to choice for companies operating in different sectors. These include Financial Services and Banking, Retail and eCommerce, Manufacturing and Logistics, Education and Learning, and more.

App Builder offers no vendor lock-in and gives teams all the tools they need to create data-rich, high-performance web applications with grids, charts, and any other component and feature they choose.

You can start using App Builder for free or select the pricing model that fits your needs and budget. There is a 14-day free trial which helps make an informed decision. Once it expires, you can purchase the product to access all the capabilities. In case you need more time to evaluate the product, you can contact the sales department.
