After comparing a few different products in the no-code, low-code space for CRUD, I recently adopted Retool for my company to develop internal applications. Our apps depends on postgres under the hood, so we can still run traditional queries without the UI when needed.

What would I gain by switching to Visual DB?




Retool is a great product especially if you are a developer. Visual DB is intended for people who can't or won't code.


Good clarification. Retool runs into a wall pretty quickly if you are unwilling/unable to write ANY sql or js.


How would you describe the differences with https://nocodb.com/ ?


We have a section here on comparison to Airtable: https://visualdb.com/spreadsheet/#airtable These points should apply to other tools similar to Airtable.


Thanks, I've not used Airtable enough to appreciate the comparison entirely but the focus on form building makes a lot of sense. Google Forms sets a low bar and the next best choice isn't obvious to me. Congrats on the launch!
