Sev Kurtov - PeerSpot reviewer
Directly integrates with AWS, interface functions are great and it's all in one package
I like that Honeycode directly integrates with AWS as it reduced the friction in setting up the back end. When I started working with Honeycode, I didn't have the resources to set up a server and go internally within the company so it was helpful to be able to create an account, start coding, and get the job done. The interface functions are great. Everything I needed to do was in one package. It's invaluable for small companies that are starting out and don't have a huge amount of resources.
Yasser_Anter - PeerSpot reviewer
Has customization and integration capabilities which increase efficiency
Salesforce could improve by offering AI features or functionalities to help business decision-makers analyze business history, suggest forward strategies, and participate in events. The previous version had a complicated interface where multiple pages and data entries were required, which was not pleasant for sales teams or business users. Also, deploying Salesforce took a long time, about four to five months, which is not ideal for any business.

Cons

"It's not possible to significantly differentiate some of the UI elements."
"Although the platform is already set up for you, there's a lot of customization that needs to be done, especially for any new component we start using. For whatever solution we wanted, we had to think for ourselves and design it all on our own. And, unfortunately, there were some components that were not really mature in the beginning, like Tableau for example."
"Better flexibility in editing emails created from templates would be great, and being able to add hyperlinks in emails for scheduling meetings would allow us to automate more."
"I would like to see the organizational details improved to make it less difficult to bring new clients on board."
"I don't have any notes for improvement. It serves us well."
"The initial setup is rather complex."
"The solution's UI is horrible."

"I would like to have integration with Google."
