Knack vs Apollo

This system worked well for what we needed this year. The main need was to create a system to enter and track points from our various members for year-end awards. This was a complex system to build because of the many different categories involved, and so far Knack has handled it. Building the system was extremely frustrating at times, as fields and properties would sometimes refuse to update, or the system would just hang and not do anything. I have built other apps with much the same issues. Customer service was initially helpful but now seems to ignore my requests for looking into bugs even after multiple attempts to have them resolved. We are on the middle tier plan. For example in one of my apps, the app simply hangs if I sort a certain table by one of the fields. Their answer was to not sort it by that field when using the app. I have also had records that should have been deleted not be deleted. I have put my own stop checks into the app and have not had any corrupted data as of yet, but the issues I've had do concern me.

Game changer. Cant imaging our business without it. The speed in which we can develop apps to run companies is unmatched. We have tried to find a replacement, there isn't one. Also a big bonuses is how quickly this scales. We run family owned plumbing operations up to globally companies operating in several countries all from the same platform with no need of expanding local server resources.

Knack allowed us to set up our own "app" by creating a simple database with a front end for users. With limited resources for programming, I learned how to run the builder myself and set the program up for my team. Our Operators enter production data through the interfaces and we've been able to make the system work well enough that I do not need to enter into the builder to fix data errors. Our production managers use their custom interface to ensure records were entered correctly on a daily basis. This eliminated a huge amount of physical paperwork. It also allowed me to have summarized plant performance by a set time on the following production day.

I could say something like, the filters for leads are really granular, the integration with HubSpot works really well, or the sequences are really convenient in addition to the prospecting. But my favorite part so far has been the quality support. They even expect their users to have suggestions for features. It's built into the chat automations, which says to me that they are focused on build what users want.

I use Apollo for one thing- and that is lead gen. Most of my prospecting happens through LinkedIn, so having a simple, easy approach to determine a prospects email and potentially phone number, is invaluable.

We are looking forward to the early adopters of our project. And Apollo helps us not waste a great deal of time understanding the progress of our competition in the market. I was fallen in love with Apollo browsing the application; it works well the most for LinkedIn. Apollo helps to find me contacts of your potential prospects and make this world better with a great deal
