"Easy"
What do you like best about Ninox?

Ninox is very user friendly compared to other programs and apps. I could figure it out without help from customer service. I have contacted customer service many times and they have responded very timely. They have also encouraged me to set up an appointment with them using Zoom (something new to me). Due to my remote location, the video call was not completed because of poor service on my end. But the rep was very good about suggesting other times to call.

What do you dislike about Ninox?

Customizing Ninox isn't intuitive. It might just be that I need more knowledge about tables though. It would be helpful if there was a video tutorial to watch. I live in a remote area and video conferencing is difficult because of poor bandwidth.

What problems is Ninox solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am in education. I am trying to use Ninox as a way to keep records with student performance. I am having difficulty having more than 8 field showing, even after I went back in and made sure that additional fields are visible.

"CMR Solution"
What do you like best about Ninox?

It looks like you have many possibility and offer quite a lot of different solutions

What do you dislike about Ninox?

It's not really user friendly. They should improve in oder to make easier the data base and have a better layout user friendly and programming faster. Than It will be interesting to have a sort of free cloud in order to synchronize every thing

What problems is Ninox solving and how is that benefiting you?

I had to change CRM more close to to Apple system

What do you like best about Ninox?

I recall using the web-based version of this software. However, I had a hard time assembling the category information. In fact, it was so long ago, I do not recall even how I did the process.

What do you dislike about Ninox?

Perhaps I did not look over the NInox Site o find he knowledge database or the tutorial on how to get started.

"Is getting better, but unfortunately still no substitute for Filemaker."
What do you like best about Ninox?

I like the fact that Ninox comes from Germany. I think it's good that the forum is in German and the support also speaks German. The manual is also in German, so understandable for anyone who does not speak English. In addition, unfortunately, I find no property that I really like.Everything seems not really mature yet and is not yet suitable for daily use.The new design is a big improvement, but still not enough. But anyway, I believe that Ninox will be really good someday. Bisdahin it is still a long way.

What do you dislike about Ninox?

Although everything seems pretty tidy and simple at the first glance, in my opinion it quickly becomes confusing. Maybe you have to deal with the software a bit more to get routine. I think the iOS app is not good either. On the iPhone you can not use them at all, because they are in my opinion totally confusing and many features I could not find. What bothers me most is the fact that you can not password protect the database on the Mac. That really is very bad and a basic feature for me. For companies, the subscription model is certainly relatively cheap. For a freelancer it is devinitatively too expensive.

What problems is Ninox solving and how is that benefiting you?

Not yet, because so far Ninox has not convinced me yet.

"So Easy to use"
What do you like best about Ninox?

Ninox is so easy to use and linking tables was a joy

What do you dislike about Ninox?

Id like inline editing as we have job sheets that are completed on a daily basis. I may be missing something but id like pivot tables to maybe just total one field rather than cross reference two

What problems is Ninox solving and how is that benefiting you?

We mainly use this for inventory but make up producst to sell. we dont manage stock on finished items - just the "recipe" that makes them up. Ive tried a million different producst and they are either ridiculously priced or dont allow me to tweak the way I want it

"Ninox Cloud"
What do you like best about Ninox?

Ninox Cloud is very quick to set up and use. It's highly intuitive and can be used without coding, but has the flexibility to use code if needed. I was confident enough of Ninox's capabilities within a couple of weeks' use to choose it to build a relational admin system for our team of five. I have quickly been able to build a system that truly meets our needs after many months of trying to find an off-the-shelf product. I have tried other cloud database systems but none were as intuitive as Ninox. The method of importing and exporting data is particularly important to us and Ninox does this with ease. The developers have been very supportive in any communication.

What do you dislike about Ninox?

Documentation needs to be kept much more up-to-date. This is the only thing that has slowed us down in setting up our new system. I see references in support threads about functions and commands that it is very hard to find references for without looking through the blog for version updates. Although frequent automatic database backups are made, I would like to be able to schedule these to download.

What problems is Ninox solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Ninox for a system that our team can access from anywhere and on multiple types of device. The benefits to us are huge as we are all working remotely in a variety of environments. We now have a flexible system to keep track of hundreds of pieces of equipment, relating them to multiple contacts and events. The ability to quickly change and update our system is very valuable to us.

"ERP at the pricing of a Microsoft Word license"
What do you like best about Ninox?

We are a small company (very small indeed) so pricing and onboarding process makes a great impact, and Ninox makes this barriers very low. The tool is impressive in terms of what it can do and you get results very rapidly. The templates is a fantastic way to start. The best things of all is to contract the help of an expert consultant that will tweak those templates or even a new idea into shape in hours at a hourly rate super affordable.

What do you dislike about Ninox?

To start from scratch yourself really requires some investment in knowing the tool. It's like Excel, I would say, in minutes you can do great things, but if you want to program your own macros and forms that could take some days of learning and experimenting.

What problems is Ninox solving and how is that benefiting you?

Bespoke ERP Tool for my company in 1 day for less than $250. Unbeatable.

"Powerful, easy to use database for multiuser access over the internet"
What do you like best about Ninox?

- very intuitive, easy to setup a first database - very flexible to improve and enhance the functionality - extremely stable and fast

What do you dislike about Ninox?

- scripting possible, but not yet fully developed - manual for scripting is only rudimentary, so programming Ninox is try and error

What problems is Ninox solving and how is that benefiting you?

- Managing a scientific proposal and beamtime system in a small team of beamline scientists - seamless use of the database natively on Mac , Windows , iPad and in Browsers - easy integration with already existing databases

"Ninox is an excellent tool which helped me to organize / overview my business contacts / contracts!"
What do you like best about Ninox?

I am an architect and I don't know much about coding. With other software I was always missing some functions and now in a way I can 'code' what I need myself. It's excellent and it is continuously improving, the webinars are extremely helpful, the support team is very friendly and competent. I am deeply impressed and grateful!

What do you dislike about Ninox?

There is nothing I dislike ... but if I may recommend an improvement, it would be a 'facelift' to make the user interface (icons, colour scheme, etc.) more appealing.

What problems is Ninox solving and how is that benefiting you?

As my business is growing I was losing the overview referring my contacts / contracts / orders / budgets and Ninox helps me efficiently to manage my bigger, longer, more complex lists of customers and service providers.

The documentation is lacking for writing codes for complex design.

"Using Ninox on a HND course"
What do you like best about Ninox?

Click on a phone number field and Ninox asks if you want to phone that contact. Click on a location field and it shows a map for you to select the location. Both of these are things mobile device users are familiar with but I have not seen when using Access or MySQL. Database templates aimed at common business situations. Easy to use - I made a database in less than 30 minutes without having to check the manual. Lets you invite other people and set their level of access. Its cloud based so you can share stuff without having a website of your own.

What do you dislike about Ninox?

A new scripting language (NX) to learn. The way it links tables is not yet clear to me - I am used to selecting primary keys and foreign keys myself. The data entry forms is something I need to explore further.

What problems is Ninox solving and how is that benefiting you?

I used it as part of my teaching on a HND (undergraduate level) course and it allowed my students to see an alternative to Access and MySQL, and helped when it came to evaluating these systems.

"Custom manufacturing and inventory system"
What do you like best about Ninox?

The functionality that I can write my own system based on our needs. Also the ease of use and many tutorials on Youtube. Well done Ninox!! The support from Ninox is superb.

What do you dislike about Ninox?

Nothing really, it might have been nice to have more features to customize the user interface, but most probably I don't know the system well enough yet to do it.

What problems is Ninox solving and how is that benefiting you?

I could not find software applicable to our manufacturing system( within our budget) and had to get software engineers to develop a custom system. The cost was huge and time-consuming to get done.
