Reviewers broadly agree that Adalo is very easy to learn and fast for building simple apps, prototypes, and small internal tools, with helpful tutorials, app-store publishing, and some useful integrations. But the praise is undercut by repeated complaints about weak support, slow or unstable performance as apps grow, hard-to-fix bugs, and missing features for more complex products. Pricing changes and add-on limits also frustrate long-time users. The overall view: strong for getting started, risky for serious, scalable, or business-critical apps.
Hi Eladine!
Thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed review. I’m glad the simplicity came through, because that’s something we work hard to protect.
We've recently launched Ada by Adalo - a new version of Adalo, with learnings from our last 6 years!
I also appreciate you being candid about the limitations, and you’ve hit on two of the exact reasons we rebuilt Adalo from the ground up. On code access: you can now download your app’s code at any time, so you’re never locked in and can take your app with you if you outgrow us. On stability and scale: the new Adalo runs on rebuilt infrastructure, with scalable hosting and a hosted Postgres database, designed for apps that real customers depend on rather than just prototypes.
If you’re open to it, I’d love for you to give the new version a try and tell us whether it changes your view. Either way, thank you for the honest feedback.
Astha,
CEO of Adalo
