Overall, Zoho creator has been an excellent product to work with, the user friendly menu, the numerous available templates and the plentiful support from the Zoho creator team make it an excellent choice for someone learning to build apps.
Pros: Zoho creator makes it easy to take an idea into a working product, the drag and drop style builder and simple UI interface makes for a seamless experience when creating new applications. There is also plenty of support from Zoho if needed!
Cons: Initial learning curve can be quite steep but once you understand the basics (form>report>page), the rest will fall into place. Not great for niche use cases or highly customized applications and at times can feel very template based.

Zoho is a powerful and very versatile platform rewarding curiosity and patience. It's a very good tool for people who want tailored solutions without having to hire a development team.
Pros: When it comes to flexibility the ability to build a custom apps matched exactly to the workflow. No need for huge and extensive software engineering skills so the value for money is definitely obvious. The drag and drop interface made easy to start with. Integrations with other Zoho products is also great. The security standpoint inspires confidence (compliance features and data permissions). The apps are accessible from everywhere making the cloud services very well handled.

Yann S. · Psychotherapist · Health, Wellness and Fitness · January 21, 2026
Overall experience with Zoho was ans 8/10 only because we couldn't geo track caregivers or have live interaction on daily basis and it wasn't easy compiling payroll into excel.
Pros: What I liked most about ZOHO was it helped start a organized way of record keeping for our clients and caregivers. we were able to set up a non trackable system with QR codes for them to clock in.
Cons: What I least liked about ZohO was the lack of understanding on how it worked and it wasnt easy to understand when having to learn how to programs and just understanding overall what it was capable of.
Destiny B. · Staffing Coordinator · Hospital & Health Care · October 6, 2025
I wasn't able to use Zoho Creator because it's best used on a laptop or desktop and I only work from my mobile device.
Pros: Zoho Creator would be very useful for large scale business development and for creating things like reports.
Cons: It wasn't what I was expecting. The name having 'Creator' in it made me think that it offered tools to make creative things like ads or social media posts, but it doesn't. My small business wasn't ready for this kind of software.
Amber L. · Owner · Retail · September 5, 2025
I'm not an expert coder. Starting using Zoho Creator was really easy and friendly. I got a basic layout of an app I needed in less than 3 minutes. I then got the chance to personalize everything but the initial example was great. Also pricing is fair and adaptable to different situations.
Pros: It was easy to start using the app creator and I liked the templates to get started. I need different things and it just took me a couple of seconds to navigate the app to get what I needed
Cons: The indicator that the first 15 days are a free trial is not obvious. I would have liked the pricing upfront and then the option to get on the free trial

It plugged a hole left by the lack of any commercially available tool. Today, operations are more iterative and less reliant on spreadsheets and manual handoffs.
Pros: I’ve created internal tooling for budget tracking, campaign timelines, and approvals entirely custom fitting to how our team works. It’s customizable without requiring heavy coding.
Cons: The UI feels a bit dated and the app will lag when working with larger data sets. But for normal uses, it feels good enough.
Carla D. · Finance and Operations Manager · Marketing and Advertising · July 3, 2025
I have created ERP by using Zoho Creator for different organizations but I had zero coding knowledge. But Yes, I learn deluge (Zoho Creator Own Language ), which an online scripting language. By learning this language , It opens up my scope of work, as an operations manager and business student, to put my thoughts to meet organizational demand and upgrade as requirements . Now's a days in a fast changing world , can't depend on a specific limited version software but by using Zoho creator you can reach your dream target.
Pros: Zoho creator is like a white page. You only need a pen to write organizational challenges in a systematic way to fix them. You can own your dream working culture by setting a work flow and by allowing others to follow it. It is open and cloud-based, which also allows to integrate third-party software as well.
Cons: Need very good understanding on business process and a bit of technical knowledge and lastly keen to learn to solve the challenges.
Shaharia P. · Operations Manager · Building Materials · June 21, 2025
My overall experience with Zoho Creator is very good. This tool is very flexible. It helps us saving time because we can automate the task in it.
Pros: I like most about Zoho creator is that it is very easy to prepare the custom apps without knowing the code. Its custom campaign apps and lead tracking app are very useful in marketing industries.
Cons: For the beginners the advance features of this tool required more time to understand.

Amit G. · Sr. PPC Executive · Marketing and Advertising · February 22, 2025
Without having a strong kowledge in coding, we can still create more customizable apps. But if the price were lower, it would be more profitable.
Pros: Zoho Creator provides more customization and integration options.
Cons: Zoho creator is expensive for startups and it have limited template options.
Prasad B. · Web Developer · Information Technology and Services · February 15, 2025
easy to implement and no experts are needed to create simple but very useful applications
Pros: Zoho Creator has been a great tool for help and benefit because it has been possible to create applications that are of internal help to the company, it has a simpler process than creating normal applications but that is how simple the applications that have been created are to reduce work processes or more effective communication portals
Cons: its prices are not so cheap but its utility is really great and very complete
David F. · Professional Nurse · Medical Devices · January 17, 2025
My experience has been positive overall. It’s a powerful tool for automating tasks and managing data more efficiently. Once you understand the system, it’s very useful, but it can be overwhelming at first.
Pros: I love the flexibility it offers. You can build apps that are tailored to your exact needs, and the drag-and-drop interface makes it easy to use. The integration with other tools is also seamless, which is a huge plus.
Cons: Sometimes the interface can feel a bit cluttered with all the features available. It’s not the most intuitive at first, and the learning curve can be steep for beginners.
Mario P. · QA Engineer · Computer Software · December 13, 2024
It has been a very useful tool in a very efficient way that makes it possible to quickly cover the required needs through applications
Pros: I actually think that Zoho Creator has a great business benefit in being able to save a lot of money in the creation of applications quickly and easily, satisfying the needs that need to be covered with each application. With the added artificial intelligence, it makes everything possible in the creation of each application
Cons: Although its application development process is not so complicated, I feel that there is no learning path for all the functions that Zoho Creator has and it makes you feel lost at certain times when you do not know what each tool should be used for.

It has been truly good so far, I'd jut love for it to be a liiitle bit simpler
Pros: It has a lot of other little functions, which is great, everything is on a same place.
Cons: Regardless of all the little functions, it is a bit hard to understand where to go to get things done, integrations wise; and even using the help articles, some of them aren't updated
Emely J. · Account Manager · Security and Investigations · August 26, 2024
Overall it solved our urgent needs for self developed apps, however it is only a temporary tool
Pros: There are many existing templates and walk throughs available from the get go. Several coding language support is also a huge plus. Our new apps were easily connected to one another.
Cons: Not all screens and devices were supported and accounted for. It is impossible to grow and make apps bigger, and the tool is not techy enough for that. Deluge coding language.

Nilesh S. · Audio Editor · E-Learning · August 26, 2023
It has helped me to make tests or design paths of applications at a surprising speed, it is suitable for all types of developers: from a junior to a senior.
Pros: Its most outstanding functionality is the possibility of creating applications without the need to know programming through codes, thus streamlining processes and adapting to the needs of each company.
Cons: It is a good application but it has difficulties in the construction of complex software, besides the security measures required may not be those given by Zoho.
Gabriela M. · Support enginner · Computer Software · August 13, 2023
It never really took off in our organization, I think I'm the only one who ended up using it.
Pros: It came out early so it had the coolness factor. Nice basic tool for a spreadsheet on steriods.
Cons: Any interactions between fields, display/hide of fields and the like requires code.
Jay L. · Operations Manager · Computer Software · August 3, 2023
I have found this platform extremely useful and versatile for creating my custom applications without the need for in-depth programming knowledge.
Pros: One of the things I liked the most is its ease of use and the speed with which I can create custom applications that amazed me.
Cons: Sometimes it can be a bit challenging is the initial learning curve. Although the platform is easy to use for the most part, as I have almost no prior experience building apps, it may take some time to get familiar with all the features and functionality.
