Budibase is for creating internal applications. So if you are simply building an internal app for a customer, then yes.
If you are building a SaaS platform, then Budibase is not the right platform.
- d4rkp4ttern 5y agoI see a lot of no/low code tools as being “for internal apps”, (I think Vercel is one such) but I always wonder why exactly they are only meant for internal apps and not for building a SaaS product. Care to enlighten me?
- foxbee 5y agoOur problem and reason for creating BB was because we were continually creating similar internal CRUD apps, time and time again. Building a SaaS platform was not our problem.
- jordiburgos 5y agoI don't understand why it's only for internal applications. If the form looks good and works, I would put it as a solution for my customers. Maybe I would not create the whole application with Budibase, but for some screens for entering data + showing tables, yes. What reasons do you think this is not feasible? And as a business idea, I think that the first "no code"/"low code" that removes the "only for internal apps" will get the most developers interested. (like me)
- mjashanks 5y agoThe point that foxbee was trying stress is that Budibase is not for building SaaS products. There is absolutely no reason why you could not give login's out to your customer - i.e. a customer portal. It's just difficult to draw this distinction with simple terms, so sometimes we say "Internal" to try and separate from "SaaS Product". Naming is hard - we've been using the term "Business App" more often now.
