Featured Reviews

Luis Gerardo Meneses Hernandez - PeerSpot reviewer
Creates versatile applications seamlessly across platforms
I like the simplicity of making panels with Flutter. It is easy to use when you understand the code, know how to use Docs, and understand the components of Flutter. It allows you to create fragments that look good and work on both mobile and web environments. Additionally, it works for both PC and iOS devices.
Guhan Eshwar - PeerSpot reviewer
Building tools with user-friendly interfaces abut needs integration improvements
An integration of Copilot options within Microsoft Power Apps would be useful. In UiPath apps, there is an autopilot function that uses a generative AI model, which creates layouts and connects data services automatically with a prompt. Such integration would be beneficial to build basic frameworks that can be enhanced. This would assist business process users who lack coding knowledge.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable features of FlutterFlow are the integrations and workflows."
"FlutterFlow offers a lot, but one feature that really helps me is the debugging features that allow me to test everything on the spot. This is really helpful."
"I like the simplicity of making panels with Flutter."
"It allows you to create fragments that look good and work on both mobile and web environments."
"Of all of the solutions I evaluated, it was the easiest to use and deploy."
"Time to market is most valuable because you can make apps pretty fast. It also has pretty good integration."
"We get feedback on a real-time basis, which is actually very useful for us."
"The model that allows you to establish flow automation is getting a lot of traction from the customer side. It offers a lot of flexibility."
"As a business person, I design a lot of screens. The solution really resonates with me. Their design is amazing."
"The most valuable feature is the compatibility with other Microsoft components."
"The integration with SharePoint is part of the enterprise package, making it cost-effective."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in advanced functionality so it could cater to more complex app development needs."
"I am trying to see how it can be integrated with the backend. That said, I haven't gotten there yet."
"The UI components could be more standardized. Sometimes, for certain properties, I have to search more than I do with other platforms. With other platforms, once you know one, you know all. But with FlutterFlow, sometimes you have to look around for what you need."
"Scaling depends on project requirements."
"The editor in the Web browser could be improved because it can be difficult to implement the commands in the buttons."
"Installation and integration could be improved."
"PowerApps is still a bit new compared to a slightly more mature product such as OutSystems."
"We would like to see the period for viewing executions within this solution to be extended beyond its current limit of 28 days. We would prefer to be able to offer our customers an infinite amount of history to search."
"In an upcoming release, I would like to see custom APIs, better integration with other solutions, and more connectors available."
"A downside is that Power Apps is primarily designed to work within the Microsoft ecosystem. It’s unsuitable for publishing apps outside the network, so you need additional Microsoft technologies for broader use. While it’s very scalable for simple apps, it's not ideal for large-scale enterprise applications."
"Its user interface can be better. It is good, but it can be a bit clunky."
"The flexibility and the user interface need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would rate the licensing costs a three out of ten, with ten being expensive and one being cheap. Currently, I use the free version."
"I pay nine dollars monthly for the subscription to this solution and the price of the is reasonable."
"We use the Office 365 package, and Microsoft PowerApps is a part of the package. We don't pay any separate price for this. There are no additional costs. We just pay for the Office 365 package."
"If we compare Microsoft Power Apps with any on-prem or other Azure solutions, I feel it can be made cheaper."
"The pricing is too expensive and the licensing system is complicated. There are many pages of instruction on how to do the calculations for the price."
"Power Apps is relatively cheap compared to other low-code and no-code systems like OutSystems and Mendix."
"In terms of pricing, Power Apps is cost-efficient."
"For me, it was free to develop with a professional license, which is about 70 euros a month."
"The company has a subscription where you can use certain features for free, but there are features that require a premium subscription to use."
