Superblocks Reviews & Product Details

The ease of use and getting onboarded with the product is something that Superblocks provides in a pretty great way. Even the documentation that is provided is very helpful to understand the components and the workflows.

Even the Superblocks implementation team is very helpful and highly efficient in bridging any kind of learning gaps and workflow implementations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Currently the only downside seems to be a concrete way for peer review or a feasible way to incorporate multiple reviewers and then have a deployment pipeline.

Maintenance of deployed apps can be a challenge sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Has lowered the barrier of entry to who can be a front-end developer and prototyper, changing the way PMs can work in the company. Has also sped the pace of development for front-end developers themselves. The team is very high touch and invested in our success, and is quick to address any issues that may arise.

Still a bit clunky for non-front end minded people to get started and building with. Want more shared APIs and components acros the workspace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use and ramp up, it is not an overly complex tool and does everything we needed.

We were able to deploy easily in our internal infrastructure which was a must for all our internal tooling.

Have all the integrations we needed to get build our internal use cases, zero workarounds you have to do.

The new features around multi page application is super useful for complex and larger tools. We were able to implement an all in one solution for our support team which is now well loved and used daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing, the team is very supportive and it was very easy to get help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is incredibly quick and simple to build tools. With very little effort, and almost no boilerplate code to write and maintain, we are able to introduce needed tools at a far more rapid pace than with our previous, semi-proprietary method. While there are other platforms that can provide similar end results, when comparing them, I felt that Superblocks streamlines the process significantly. While their stable of pre-set integrations is still somewhat limited, their ability to use REST APIs and OpenAPI means your build capabilities are not limited. Their documentation is good, but where it is missing something, their support team is a chat away, and responds quickly and with familiarity with the platform, getting you the answer you need without making you wait days for a support engineer. Our legacy platform took weeks of work by a talented and driven team before we could even build our first tool, but with Superblocks, we had production ready tools in a matter of days.

The UI designer has some oddities that take some getting used to, and there are some things (like being able to show users the time left on a timer object) that are not available. Currently, granting access to internal or on-premise data requires commiting to running all tools through the on-premise agent, with no hybrid connectivity model as of writing.

However, based on their documentation, they are constantly looking to improve and increase the capabilities of the platform. Anything I dislike can be creatively solved with the capabilities they do provide. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Superblocks is good for quick back-office apps where you can provide some simple CRUD operation to the admin users. You can quickly setup integartion, create a list view, detail view, action buttons and execute some calls to end service. Also it is easy to write some logic in python/js to pack data in way that you need to from integation response. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For some speficic usecases is harder to accomplished out of the box.

Probably with creating custom components, but we wanted fast and easy back office. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very easy to use, Intuitive and does the work we want to get done really well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are small bugs here and there but nothing in particular Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Getting a useful application up and running can be done within a day. Everything is generally intuitive and the documentation is great. Superblocks has a solid all-in-one solution that handles everything from permissions to environments to source control, to name a few. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't recommend highly custom applications. Even though there is functionality for custom React applications, it's not as easy as using the in-built tools. The existing functionality is great though so use those as much as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'll preface by saying I'm a product manager first, with strong SQL chops but otherwise relatively low directly technical capabilities. I've had great success before building in Bubble, but when it came time for my company to replace our internal tools, the engineers wanted to use Superblocks, and I was chosen to lead the project.

I was able to work with a few of our senior BE engineers, and our DevOps engineer, to successfully design, build out, and release a new Admin Application for our Axial's marketplace, which serves thousands of professionals in the private capital markets.

The bottom line of this success story is that Superblocks allowed this PM to deliver an interface that would have taken engineers many months to build from scratch. There were no show-stopping features missing: pretty much requirement that mattered had support or a workaround. And now that my app is out, it's stable, has been met with rave reviews from my teammates, all the way up to the CEO, I'm able to ship really rapid iterations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest issue on my end was the learning curve, given I'm from a no-code background. So, thank goodness for ChatGPT. There was no shortage of puzzles to work out in order to get the app to behave the way I wanted, so creativity and patience were very important. This app does not come close to Bubble's ease of use and intuitiveness, for a user like me (where it wins against Bubble is the simplicity of pricing).

There are definitely LOTS of features and nice-to-haves we would like to see supported, but since what we built is an internal tool, and most of the basic capabilities are "good enough", we can now afford to shrug and move on.

The Superblocks team is relatively responsive in our shared Slack channel. Occasionally a day or so might go by without a response, but a simple bump with a mention is usually effective in getting their attention. And when we've had something truly critical (e.g., app is down, or for some reason folks on our team can't do their job), they have been most supportive in resolving ASAP.

I've been using Superblocks for quickly prototyping new product ideas, and it has been a game-changer for my workflow. The platform is incredibly intuitive and allows me to bring concepts to life in record time. Whether I'm working on simple layouts or more complex interactions, Superblocks provides the tools I need to iterate rapidly without getting bogged down in technical details.

What I love most is the flexibility and ease of use. I can easily experiment with different design elements, test various functionalities, and make adjustments on the fly. This agility is crucial when you're trying to validate ideas and gather feedback quickly.

The interface is user-friendly, and the learning curve is minimal, even for those who may not have extensive technical experience. The support team is also responsive and helpful, which adds to the overall positive experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing is a bit confusing. For the pro, it says "unlimited users" but when I use the pricing estimator, it shows that the price goes up significantly as the end users go up in numbers. I wish the pricing was flexible to charge for developers, but keep the end user pricing more reasonable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Superblocks is easy to use to build something from scratch really quickly. I was able to spin up a rich user interface pulling in data from multiple sources within a few hours. Making changes based on user feedback can happen in a matter of minutes rather than afters hours of coding and testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Superblocks can be a bit inflexible and opaque. Complex variable and API function dependencies are difficult to encode. There's a set of components you can use and it's not easy to spin up a custom component. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
