Stackby Reviews

Honestly, my first impressions of this app are incredibly disappointing. It's tempting to use some unflattering language to describe it so far. The disappointment is both on browser and the iOS mobile app.

Sorting doesn't work as intended. I've created a table for shared expenses between me and my wife and set to sort on the date column in descending order. Entries from the current date get put at the BOTTOM of the table. It seems like current date entries don't float up to the top until the following day or something. It's SOO weird.

On top of this, the performance on my 650-row table is horrendous. I also struggled to import data from Coda (CSV) as it seemed unable to recognize the US date format. What I mean by this is that if the day was 12 or under, it interpreted it as a month. If the day was 13+ it correctly identified the format as US. After importing I had two different date formats, so there was no way get everything into one consistent format. I eventually got it, but it was way more trouble than it was worth.

Oh, and good luck creating a formula. Stackby's attempt to auto-complete formulas based on their function library or fields in your table f*s everything up (stuff disappears, gets overwritten, loses parenthesis, etc.). Your best bet is to avoid the auto-complete and type the whole formula out yourself and use trial and error until you get it right.

It's got SOOO much potential. My intention is to try to replace my $12/month Coda.io subscription with a one-time LTD, but I'm having a hard time justifying the change when it's been such a horrendously a frustrating first 2-weeks.

I had a frustrating experience with this app; however, I am pleased to report that all issues have now been resolved, and it operates flawlessly. For its usability, I would now rate it a solid 5 tacos.

The Android app could not load more than 15 rows of data. - Fixed

Then there’s the web app, where the pasting function was frequently malfunctioning. - Fixed

At one point, I seriously considered requesting a refund. However, Rachit's team addressed the issues promptly, convincing me to stay.

In conclusion, my overall experience has been excellent. One additional wish: I hope they will consider working on weekends to resolve issues even more swiftly.

The app's flexibility allows configuration for virtually any scenario. If you're familiar with database apps or spreadsheets, you'll find Stackby easy to understand and use.

There is a learning curve, but there is very responsive customer support every step of the way, and they are invaluable and on-point.

As a SAAS app, Stackby is easy to implement. Its desktop and mobile apps allow users to use it anywhere, meaning we can frequently and easily monitor progress.

Stackby was very easy to integrate with our app stack, and we use it to coordinate customer forms and create automated records without issues. Stackby holds all the data for our business operations, clients, and partners. It allows easy operations and critical data coordination across multiple teams on three continents.

I have found nothing I don't like and, with most of the enhancements I'd like to see already on their active roadmap, if Stackby keeps its current momentum, it'll be a heavyweight contender in its class.

I purchased the 2021 AppSumo deal for Stackby but never got around to doing much more than playing around with it. Now I've got a good reason to, and I'm very happy with both the product and the support. I've used the Ai****ble product which is good, but I'm not happy with the apparent change of direction that company is taking towards enterprise level customers more than SMBs. Stackby is a great product with very attentive support

Hello everyone

I have been using Airt… for many years and when I want to dive into it in a more complex way, I find it challenging. Until now Stackby makes it a lot easier and that is what I love.

I know it is expensive, but when you really want to dive into the digital world you will have the need of a great database to grow. And I was looking for a way how to get rid of Airt… and now I have found what I was looking for. Of course the options here are not endless, but are a great way to start and to expand to a subscription when needed.

Please do not forget the add-ons mentioned at the end of the page because they make all the difference, at least for me. I know it is a lot of money. Think, what you can do with it and I love the templates they offer. I am creating my own tables based on the templates and my tables are sometimes even more complex. I am using the software and one add-on app to write my contracts in the future. Further, I will use it for planning my social media content, my blog posts, etc. I have not investigated all yet and the journey will take me some more days or weeks, but I am really looking forward to it.

In the past, I have used Airt… even for listing psychotherapists or my revenue and costs. I found printing of the psychotherapist list challenging and what by I have seen, it seems relatively easy on Stackby. In addition, I found it difficult to create reports on Airt… and hope that with the app in Stackby it will be much easier. I have not used this function yet, but I know I will use it soon when I have finished creating the social media database because then I would to visualise the results and the growth.

Not all the challenges I faced might be a hurdle for others on Airt… I hope that things stay like this and I know I will be really using this software a lot.

And the support team which I have needed a few times already, less for the software itself as for the acquisition of the software is really quick to respond. I am really looking forward to the new developments that the future will bring and my adventure with my created databases.
