'Although I have never written a line of code in my life I was able, with the video tutorials, to build a decent database and interfaces.' - Matthew Whittall, Knack user If you're able to manage that, you'll get an app with just the features you need, and it won't even be that difficult to make it or break your budget. The only requirements are that your data can be entered with a form, stored in a database, and displayed in common rows, tables, or charts. But the thought of that-the billable hours or staff time-make you cringe.įortunately for you, there's another option you may not know about: building your own internal tool with a database builder.įrom tools like Microsoft Access to more modern apps like Zoho Creator, there are database builders that make it simple to build any type of app you need. So with custom needs piling up-and software options whittling down-you come to a conclusion: it's time to build your own web app. In your business, you have specific customer characteristics to track, unique inventory to categorize, or new types of contacts to file away.
The only problem is, no app is a perfect match to the way you work. Whether you need to manage customer data, organize inventory information, or keep track of your business contacts, there's likely an app for that.
