Powerful no-code and mobile friendly authoring tool After much research of a no-code, mobile friendly, database driven authoring tool, I finally embraced Glide. I spent many hours watching Youtube reviews, but until you actually spend quality time with a platform, you are never sure of their capabilities. What I like of Glide is the number of integrations to other systems (e.g. Open AI), a community with generous contributors, and the rhythm of new updates. Glide is a tool to generate practical data-driven web apps. Don't expect deep control of how the UI will look like. If you are a designer, this may feel like a limitation. Overall I'm quite happy of my learning journey so far.

Glide hits the sweet spot for me Glide hits the sweet spot for me. I use Airtable as my data source and need a flexible app on top of it that doesn't require coding skills. Glide offers so many options but makes it easy to create. Their documentation and community are phenomenal as well, so if I ever get stuck, there are very quick responses to my queries.

Great for apps powered by lots of complex data It's brilliant for developing apps that use lots of data. I've been using for some time, developed complex user journeys, the whole thing is powered by multiple data links. Great for relational data tables. Also the finished product looks great. Never gone wrong yet. It's not perfect; but it meets the number 1 criteria. It just works. Don't underestimate the need for smart design though; there are often several ways of achieving the same thing so to find the best method may require a lot of time to be invested. Whilst it's no/low code, you can't shortcut the testing. Good luck.

Glide becomes very unstable and… Glide becomes very unstable and expensive, with many bugs not being fixed. I can't rely on plans and features that can be taken away at any moment, sometimes without warning.

Excellent, I have leveraged this in so many ways Quick to learn, fast to make, long lasting solutions. I can't code, but that didn't stop me making leading apps for booking platforms, CRMs, investor reporting, fund management, and more. Truth is, so many people still use a collection of spreadsheets and this is super messy. With Glide you can make something 10X better than a spreadsheet and 80% as good as a very expensive (time and money) bespoke salesforce setup or newly developed product.
