Stackby has been appreciated by customers for its powerful API integrations, ease of use, and flexibility in creating custom databases. Some minor drawbacks include limited file attachment size and a relatively small number of integrations. With an overall rating of 4.7 and positive feedback, it's worth giving Stackby a try, especially with the 30-day money-back guarantee.

misleading LTD?

My intention was to upgrade the product to tier 5 and purchase addons and marketplace aps, but it was a surprise for me that they didn't extend LTD for users who purchased via AppSumo (at least during the period of the campaign). DEAL BREAKER

So basically, to purchase power-ups is $129 per year, and marketplace apps $149 per year or something like that.
But apparently, some users had the opportunity to get those add-ons in an LTD deal from what I understand, but not anymore even though that campaign on AppSumo is still live.

Not having the same experience as others

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.

Hey there,

Addressing all the issues here one by one:

1. Sorting feature: Sort feature in Stackby is not an 'auto-sort' feature. You will have to apply sort once in a while to apply the sort on those columns. The auto sort feature is in the roadmap also it can get confusing for a lot of users if the records get auto sorted and they can't find where the records are in the table.

2. Our users...

No More Frustrations with App Usability: A Personal Experience

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.

Hi Sancho,

Since both the issues are now fixed. I would really appreciate if you can change this into a 5-taco review.

Thanks!

Excellent software with an ambitious roadmap and very responsive support

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.

After much delay, finally starting to utilize this great product. Glad I am!

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
