Caspio Reviews

What do you like best about Caspio?We needed a data entry form that would also allow easy find/edit access to content in the table, and Caspio offered the only simple way to do this that I could find. Building the form was straightforward and kind of fun, with lots of options to specify what fields should show up. We've been using our form for a couple of years without issues.What do you dislike about Caspio?I do wish that they either had a more 'low-level' user pricing tier -- we really just need some very basic functions -- or an option to trade access to more sophisticated features for additional records at the same price. I am regularly deleting older records to make space for new ones, which is a bit of a hassle, but it just doesn't make sense to move to higher pricing tier when we will never use the additional features there other than the increased storage.What problems is Caspio solving and how is that benefiting you?We need to be able to provide detailed statistics about certain transactions for different patrons: which department they're affiliated with, what they need, whether we have it in-house or have to order it, where we got it, etc. Caspio let us build a form for users to input all this information, and another form to edit it if needed, all stored in an easy spreadsheet that's perfect for review and analysis when I need to generate the reports. Caspio lets me keep all the info I need for the reports in one place, which makes it a lot easier to produce them as needed.

What do you like best about Caspio?I really like how easy Caspio makes importing data about our bowling tournaments, including the number of games and pinfall, and calculating averages. It's all just super easy to use for creating a running total and average that can be used for the next tournament. Additionally, the helpfulness of the IT team behind Caspio has been invaluable to us since we are not IT people and needed expert assistance to tailor the product exactly to our needs. Caspio's expert sessions have been particularly helpful in narrowing down and customizing our product, and this support made all the difference in getting our bowler average set up just right.What do you dislike about Caspio?I wish I had more immediate access to the specialist as I need to set up a time to have their specialist help me.What problems is Caspio solving and how is that benefiting you?Caspio makes it easy to input tournament data, calculating and updating bowler averages across events, which is great since we aren't programmers.

What do you like best about Caspio?I love how Caspio allowed me to identify all the components and data we need for planning and execution simply, efficiently, and quickly. The ability to record tasks in real time and have plant details readily available in the field has saved my team time and improved decision-making. I really appreciate the 'relationship' builder, as it allowed me to identify and link all the relevant connections without templates. This, combined with the data pages, became a powerful tool for us and helped in designing and launching applications that are easy and relevant for the team to understand and use. The initial setup was quite fast and easy to learn. I've been promoting Caspio at a level 10, which speaks to how much I value it.What do you dislike about Caspio?I guess the part that would have assisted me most would have been to understand indexing in terms of our needs. This took some time for me because I had no programming background.What problems is Caspio solving and how is that benefiting you?Caspio helps us compile needed data efficiently, enabling real-time task recording and instant access to plant details, which eliminates paper trails and saves time.

What do you like best about Caspio?Great tool for quick development of data tables, input forms, and reports at low cost for the non-profit I serve.What do you dislike about Caspio?Some of the videos for training go too quickly to understand the process. It would be helpful to accompany the videos with downloadable documentation with screen shots.What problems is Caspio solving and how is that benefiting you?Easy and quick to provide reports on specific questions from staff. When our proposal writer comes up with a need for a different way to look at the data, it is easy to respond quickly.

What do you like best about Caspio?Versatility, quick learning curve, excellent all round experienceWhat do you dislike about Caspio?the only downside is the lack of a free tier that used to exist that would be useful for amateur tinkerersWhat problems is Caspio solving and how is that benefiting you?It solves the SAAS conundrum where the user is 100% dependent on the service provider.

What do you like best about Caspio?Nothing has changed in my enjoyment of the tool, but I will go into more detail about my three favorite things. First, not all tools in this category have strong database management, and Caspio does. You can build tables from scratch or import them, and you can connect tables via keys and enforce referential integrity. Secondly, you can build asynchronous tasks that can be run on a schedule on demand and this allows a skilled user to build robust systems. Finally, Caspio Bridge and Flex allow the user to build triggered actions that happen when a record is stored, updated, or deleted on a given table, enabling dependent tables to be updated appropriately. I have used this to greatly reduce multi-step data entry work for my clients, giving them more time to work on priority items.What do you dislike about Caspio?There was a typo in my first review -- I am NOW using Caspio Flex. I love both products, but the ability to use Caspio to deploy and host with Flex is a huge improvement and efficiency!What problems is Caspio solving and how is that benefiting you?As a consultant for nonprofits, in particular, most of the traditional case management software has become very expensive (and the marketplace has consolidated so options are limited). While organizations still need to pay for the initial lift of building a system, their ongoing annualized costs to maintain it and even extend it are much lower with Caspio. I've also been able to easily train their staff to do most of the maintenance and extension functions.

What do you like best about Caspio?I’ve been using Caspio since 2021, and my apps have been super solid, running smoothly from day one without any kind of problems. I really like the freedom it gives me to build my ideas on my own, and overall everything feels intuitive and easy to use. What do you dislike about Caspio? Recommendations to others considering Caspio?Support is also a strong point. There are several options depending on what you need: online chat while you’re building your app, a support ticket center for technical questions, and the ability to contact your customer manager for bigger issues. In every case, you end up working with highly skilled professionals.What problems is Caspio solving and how is that benefiting you?Sometimes I would like that the plan I am subscribed to had a higher average of records per datapage. But I have been able to make it work nevertheless. I am sad that they will stop supporting mdb aacdb files.

What do you like best about Caspio?I like everything about Caspio because it is a solution that facilitates the agile construction of applications that help manage the company's operations. Development takes time, but Caspio makes it light and simple. Caspio's low-code development aids are easy to understand and improve time without sacrificing the robustness of an application. Additionally, the security available for the applications makes it very strong. The information is centralized and controlled, always available and protected thanks to information security management. The application developed in Caspio is the foundation of our processes, interacting in real-time and improving response times.What do you dislike about Caspio?The improvement can be in more applicable 2FA schemes for bridge developments. It is also important to manage images in forms, so that inserting images into the HTML of the datapage is more user-friendly. Currently, an image must be inserted via an external link, and it would be interesting if the platform itself allowed saving the image in the Caspio account and managing it from there to insert it into the datapage.What problems is Caspio solving and how is that benefiting you?With Caspio, I have centralized and secure information, always available, improving response times with real-time processes.
