Retool solved a real problem: internal tools are expensive to build and painful to maintain. The drag-and-drop builder is genuinely fast - you can go from database query to usable admin panel in minutes. But the output looks like Retool, not like your product. Customization beyond the component library is painful. Complex logic creates spaghetti workflows. It's the right tool for the job until the job requires taste.
What earns the score
- +Speed from idea to working tool is remarkable
- +Database connector ecosystem is comprehensive
- +Component library covers most internal tool needs
- +Permissions model is well-thought-out
What holds it back
- –Output always looks like Retool, not your brand
- –Complex logic creates hard-to-maintain workflows
- –Customization beyond standard components is painful
- –Performance degrades with complex apps
