Ninox

Avantages

The best thing about Ninox is the simplicity with which you can create business applications. With the existing templates, you can quickly create solutions tailored to your needs, even without database knowledge.

Inconvénients

The Ninox surface could be a bit more modern, but according to Ninox this will be realized soon.

Avantages

Its ease of use, its simplicity, versatility, processing speed, is really friendly. I liked the new capabilities with the new version of IOS 11.0. They are always improving it, it is also very stable. I am very happy with the product.

Inconvénients

I would like to have more capacity to display information in the columns in the impressions area
Better integration with the calendar and that you could see more information from the calendar and incorporate alerts such as icons and colors for example.
To be able to establish a timeline
Improve document printing features

Avantages

There are so many positives
Support - customer service agents are available and extremely helpful if there is a glitch or just a tweak needed
Easy to set up exactly what I need without any prior knowledge. Learning all the time how the different elements work together.
Time-saving because it is so logical
I now have all my various sections to hand, be it the contact database, the invoicing or the endless to-do lists it all flows together beautifully.
It feels like I am part of the dynamic development of the software.

Avantages

The software has a lot of functionality which is not present in other products I did review. Ninox is easy to set up and has a lot of features you only find in much more expensive products. It is easy to use and as a Macintosh user since '84 that is an important feature what counts for me.
Developing and using on iPhone, iPad, MacBook Air and desktop Mac is one thing but without fuzz using it on other platforms is great!

Inconvénients

So far the only cons I experience is missing the functionality to import images in a "batch" set up to match with records in the database where a field is reserved for an image.

Avantages

The back up and support with this product is second to none. I have been taught how to use this database by the support team. The possibilities are endless and i always find the support team friendly, helpful and inviting to speak with

Inconvénients

I would love an improved iOS version for th iphone but this is still a very small issue for me

Avantages

Ninox provides lots of possibilities for quickly and easily modeling of business processes. User interface and administration functions are absolutely intuitive and easy to use. This product combined with an incredible responsive support team offers a great value for every SME. A big plus is that not only Mac users can benefit from this product. With Ninox's SAAS Service which comes at a very reasonable price all you need is a browser.

Inconvénients

It would be great to have some sort of release strategy for your own Ninox-based database products. So you ship a release to your colleagues/clients and develop a new release without messing around with the live databases.

Avantages

LO FACIL E INTUITIVO DE REALIZAR MI APLICACION PARA MI NECESIDAD

Inconvénients

TIENE POCOS DISEÑOS Y FIGURAS AUNQUE ULTIMAMENTE YA TIENE ALGUNOS COLORES QUE HACEN MAS AGRADABLE A LA VISTA

Avantages

So easy to pickup and use. Really quick to develop a business app which feels very empowering.

However that's pretty much where it ends

Inconvénients

Too Mac centric, icloud as the sync option is ridiculous.

Struggles on server edition with medium sized data sets, filtering becomes very slow.

You cannot actually do much with your data, no real integration outside of Ninox.

Poor implementation of report design and printing which exposes too much to the end user.

Not enough separation between design and client use

Avantages

After a small time of learning I could realize all I needed and the support is uncomparable.

Inconvénients

I would like to have a designer to allow more easy configuration of colors, styles and more in the table view. Also the report-engine is not as sophisticated as in Filemaker. But overall it seems more easy to learn, is much better supported and also cheaper.

Avantages

Easy to use for beginner and very quickly be productive

Inconvénients

UI is simple but the minimaliste is a good way for beginner and pro.

Avantages

It's a quick and simple tool to learn. It synchs (almost) seamlessly across two Mac computers, my iphone and my ipad. And when I get stuck on how to do something, Ninox' customer support team (though 7 time zones away) are really responsive and helpful.

Inconvénients

The documentation leaves alot to be desired, particularly their scripting language. The tool is very simple to use and intuitive, but when you get to a point where you're creating custom fields, filters and rules, you have to know the Ninox scripting language, and that's where the documentation could use a little improvement. I'm not a programmer by trade, and the documentation seems to assume that users are.

Avantages

An Ninox gefällt mir das ist sehr simple gehalten ist, dennoch sehr viele Möglichkeiten bietet seine Datenbank nach seinen Bedürfnissen aufzusetzen.

Inconvénients

Ninox hat es meiner Meinung nach noch schwer mit dem Thema UI. Wenn da in die Richtung mehr kommen würde mich das sehr freuen.

Avantages

It's very easy to use. I'm able to make what I want. I log hours, customers, projects and much more and can connect everything to everything. It's syncronizing very fast in the cloud. I feel I can rely on it. The way I can link the tables to each other is working like I want it to. So much easier then other database apps I have tried.

Avantages

The ability to access in the field is a game changer. The live version is the only way to go and for the price it is a no brainer.

Inconvénients

A manual with code examples would be very helpful. Customer service gets back with you very quickly when you have a problem.

Avantages

Ninox makes it easy to build a ​business database system for your organization.

Inconvénients

That the world isn't flat and they are across the world. But hey they do pretty darn well considering.

Avantages

best product and value for money for databases on iOS, I've been searching for a product like ninox for years, and am glad I found it.

Inconvénients

Documentation is insufficent, have to search for required information / no manual // no Windows app available, would be nice, but not necessary, as there is web access

Avantages

Fast alles ist möglich, das hat mir sehr gefallen. Als Laie mit Vorkenntnissen für Datenbankstrukturen habe ich ein paar Dinge ganz gut geschafft zu erstellen. Für mich ist es manchmal schwierig, mich in die Ninox Sprache zu denken, weil ich hauptberuflich viel mit SQL arbeite und es sich ähnlich ist, aber nicht gleich. Wenn ich mit Ninox arbeiten möchte, muss ich also immer Zeit einplanen, nachzuforschen. Sehr gut finde ich dabei die zahlreichen Antworten im Nutzerforum. Bei fast jedem Problem, findet man hier Antworten.

Inconvénients

Manche Dinge kenne ich aus anderen Datenbank Softwares einfacher/ auf den ersten Blick verständlicher (z.B. Schnittstellen) und habe mich dementsprechend noch nicht in die Ninox Möglichkeiten eingearbeitet. Bei mir ist meist der Zeitfaktor um Antworten/Lösungen zu finden, die mich weiter bringen der limitierende Faktor. Am Ende lässt sich in der Regel jedes Problem lösen.

Avantages

Continuous improvements.
Easy to program and user friendly
Not expensive in front other softs.
iCloud Team work is amazing and reliability is on top.
great bunch of field types
Incredible support

Inconvénients

Bulk data relationship between tables
Formulary view needs to improve.
User friendly programing by drag and drop needs more options actually only accesible by code typing
Printing layout can be more sophisticated

Avantages

semplicità di utilizzo rispetto a tanti altri

Inconvénients

forse dovrebbe costare un pò meno per poter raggiungere un maggior numero di clienti

Avantages

No loss of data. Data entry screens are easy to use and design. Calendar feature is a nice touch. I have the utmost confidence in this prodcut.

Inconvénients

Exporting comes across with spaces and other charachter having multiple characters. I have to massage and clean up export data before being usable. I would like a form field view where I could make different types of forms in the platform itself. Do not take away the simplicity of the existing for fields but if I wanted to design a letter per say in another area, that would be awesome.

Avantages

Ninox is cross platform by nature, so Mac and Windows users can easily collaborate on the same database.
It is entirely mobile with pre-built Apps for iOS and so you can use the full database wherever you are.
It is intuitive to build in and if you have any challenges, the support team is excellent.

Inconvénients

Ideally, it would be good to be able to add Forms in order to create a landing page, but I know this is in development.
Beyond that, the ability to customise fonts/colours etc is probably the next stage.

Avantages

I have been using this product for more than a month every day for my dog care business. The Ninox app looks simple but is, in fact, a very powerful tool to create a complete database. For business, the cloud-based storage gives you seamless cooperation between users. In addition to that, update in coding and field modification is done live, affecting all user instantly, a great thing for small business growing fast and needing to adjust without making heavy updates.
Client support is awesome. They answered all my question the next day (considering the time zone!)
I work with multiple tables from client information to reservation then invoices. All of that is linked together in a way I can save time and find the information very fast! If you knew Bento from Apple, you'll love Ninox! If you didn't know Bento, then you'll love Ninox too!

Inconvénients

Some features are missing, but are in plans to be on the next version. Those are quite cased specific features, so you may not need them depending on your needs. But seeing how they take care of their product and clients I'm sure their next version will amazing!!

Avantages

a lot of possibilities to customize, easy and fix to build new powerful databases, great templates, sync with cloud, helpful manual, phenomenal support!

Inconvénients

Graphic design capability. Possibility to have multiple databases open at the same time. More tutorial videos.

Avantages

Easy to learn and to configure the software. It is very flexible and highly customizable with lot of function. The support team is very helpful.

Inconvénients

Sometimes the program is a bit slow when opening it in a browser, otherwise the applications work well. In some complicated cases it takes time to understand the logic behind the formulas, but it is more personal problem, not software related.

Avantages

Excellent, friendly customer support is my favorite feature of Ninox. These guys love their product and listen to their customers. They are very quick to respond to questions and have helped me add features to my database that I couldn't figure out.

With the templates they offer and the tutorial videos they have posted on YouTube, anyone can understand the basics of how Ninox works.

Inconvénients

The interface is not the prettiest and can only be modified to a certain point. I can't wait to see v.3, because that is when software hits it's stride.

Avantages

easy to handle, best support ever, low costs compared to similar databases

Inconvénients

nothing to mention, everything is fine, really!

Avantages

È il miglior database per iPhone e IPad. Con un po’ di pratica si riescono a creare cose interessanti

Inconvénients

Ha comunque anche diverse limitazioni rispetto a database più rinomati. Ma per quel che costa fa anche troppo

Avantages

The software is easy to use and you can use the icloud on apple to connect the desktop with ipad or iphone. There are a lot of features and a small learning curve but most should be able to create a useful database. There are power user features as well.

Inconvénients

I wish it had a way to see all map data on one map. For my sales job, this is important.

Avantages

NINOX ist für unsere Bedürfnisse ein ideales Tool zur Erfassung von Fundus Bestand am Theater_
( Requisite;Möbellager;Kostümfundus;etc.)
In punkto Nachhaltigkeit ein großer Schritt!

Inconvénients

In punkto Nichtgefallen haben wir nichts gefunden bisher:-)

Avantages

I have no background in databases but this program is easy to use no technical programing needed product is easy to set up and use daily i keep track of all of my online students using this database and the cloud feature is super fast try it out you will not be disapointed

Inconvénients

None so far wish the reports were easier to use wish they could be broken down by week months or days not easy to customize on the PDF side however downloading the CSV is ok

Avantages

As I announced in my title of this short review I would point out the excellent support of users/customers: Short response time, friendly, useful and really giving help.

Inconvénients

At the first glance Ninox is very easy to handle but doesn't give you a good impression of the possibilities to customizing and working out individual solutions by its programming language "NX".

Avantages

Ninox easy to setup databases and very easy to use

Inconvénients

Nothing.

Avantages

I used Nionx for my business and personal use, this is a really good flexible platform that helps me to do my developments really fast. I used this tool to develop an Invoice and document management & CRM system for my own with custom database without more knowledge in DB design and app development.

Inconvénients

need more knowledge to develop complex applications.

Avantages

Nice UI, very good sync with the Cloud, good manual. Very usefull to build Customer database to collect complex Data.

Inconvénients

Pure codeeditor should be improved, less errormessages and sometimes a Little Bit complicate Syntax for the indecies.

Avantages

Easy to use and to deploy. The screen is simple and uncluttered so users are just concerned within data input. Support has very good.

Inconvénients

Adding colour to tabs would highlight these to users as they tend to look down along the left. Adding a print button which automatically produces a pdf file. For a developer if you have many users each using the same "template" you can make changes to all of the "templates" without going into each database and changing to program. There is no scope or encouragement for a "developers program" - where we could sell the package to our customers for a reasonable fee.

Avantages

The support is great!
The software is adaptable to my needs.
The data is easily imported and exported in several file formats

Inconvénients

1)The inability to send invoices with a template message.
2)Color and font options for field names might add a better form like feel and appearance.

Avantages

Very user friendly and its only limit is the users mind, unlimited potential. Support Staff are amazing and extremely useful.

Inconvénients

Support team only works on Central European Time (CET), so if you are in the United States and having issues, getting assistance can be delayed and a little irritating.

Avantages

Ninox is very easy to use, anyone can create a very functional database in minutes! Access through the iphone app is free.

Inconvénients

If you need to do something a little more complex you will need to code a little, but this does not detract from the overall product at all, support is very responsive and they even write the code for you if you need it.

Avantages

Flexible customization to make specialized data tools for various data tracking projects. Allows me to document data directly on the production floor as conditions change (live tracking).

Inconvénients

Not as easy to use for an aggrigate view, like summarizing or averaging data from multiple data cells. Needs to be exported or represented as a graph.

Avantages

Flexibility, easy of use, and the technical support

Inconvénients

you have to be careful when handling tables. An accidental touch of the screen can make a column hide.

Avantages

Easy to Use, Excellent Customer Service, Quick to Set Up. I had never implemented a database before and with the help of the Ninox folks I had this up and running within a week. Awesome!

Inconvénients

The only thing that I would like to added is more skin customization but that is a minor, nit picky thing on my part.

Avantages

This is a good CRM software, very easy to setup and easy to understand UI’s. Manufacturers will develop more and they should make beautiful UI and looks. Overall very useful to business and professionals. Money wise worth.

Inconvénients

It should look good and beauty menu and icons.

Avantages

It is very easy to create a database, and it's easy for end-users also. The screens and navigation are all user-friendly.
Its cross-platform and offline capabilities on iOS make is a standout product, and the support from the Developers is excellent. Great online community too.

Inconvénients

Some of the coding behind the scenes isn't as straightforward as VBA, and some of the functions aren't entirely intuitive, but after ready some tutorials, it becomes apparent.

Pourquoi passer à Ninox

Avantages

Ninox is extremely to use and customize to your needs once you figure out the fundamentals. Customer support is solid, and they are continuing to improve the instruction manual. I haven't had any issues with the Ninox cloud being unavailable. Overall a very stable product.

Inconvénients

Learning how to use it can be complicated at first, especially for those who have little experience with databases.

Avantages

The software itself is great for its value, it's very easy to get going with your own database and set it up suited to your needs, simple, easy, and far from complicated. Their customer service support is stellar, I've had a few questions and issues and they've reached out to me in no time and helped me solve all the problems I had.

Inconvénients

The only con I have experienced so far: It doesn't have the functionality to import images in a "batch" setup to match with records in the database where a field is reserved for an image.

Avantages

For a small business it does everything I need it to. Simple to create new databases, new fields, etc. It's low cost, and it works on my Mac!

Inconvénients

If you're entirely brand new to using databases, then you might need some help to produce reports, but the customer service is absolutely brilliant!

Avantages

- a lot of possibilities for creating huge projects
- flexible and easy to use
- ultra fast and competent support

Inconvénients

Nothing until now so it's hard to reach the limit of 100 characters in this field. But I can suggest everybody to contact support when you are thinking there is something not possible - it often is possible

Avantages

Ability to customize database as needed
Strong Support

Inconvénients

There is a little bit of a learning curve, but it isn’t very hard to learn Ninox.

Avantages

It hasn't been a long time since I've used this software, but I learned quickly. It was very helpful that the interface was easy and understandable.

Inconvénients

I can say that they are successful in data, but more helpful tools should be added. Sometimes I spend more time because some tools are not available

Avantages

Amazing software for a really small price; extremely customizable and really powerful​ once understood how to set it up.

Inconvénients

A bit tricky to set up and there's a lack of video tutorials and guides,​ but the support is great.
