It is easy to use with good chat support (they helped me with step by step instructions when I had to solve some problems). Compared to other DIY builders I can recommend AppInstitute for its loyalty features. ----- ### "On first sight of the App Builder it was a no brainer for me to subscribe." — 5.0/5 > **Carl** | *12 July 2018* > > **Pros**: I'm a creative person, concepts and design, not a web developer and the only code I understand is dress code, so for a creative like me to be able to build Apps says it all. A truly well researched and developed tool. Aside from the App Builder I have to mention the excellent support by customer support they have been nothing but responsive, patient and provided me with some of the best support I've ever experienced in 30 years of being in design and marketing. I think App Institute should be proud of this product and the team and service they have to provide and support clients like myself. > > **Cons**: Apple and Google are now making it harder and harder to have white label Apps so unfortunately the cost of producing these types of apps is increasing, which is a shame. I have often used the App Builder as a door opener to clients offering them a cost effective App which they would otherwise never be able to afford. It is a big positive tool to have for my clients, so hopefully the recent restrictions are the last. ----- ### "Sadly, You will Need to Look Elsewhere..." — 1.0/5 > **Kara** | *20 November 2017* | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: I loved the user friendly app platform. I liked that I was able to get a hold of someone overtime I called. > > **Cons**: I signed up with AppInstitute in July of 2017. I read the reviews at that time which were all from 2016 and nothing less than a 5 star rating... so, I went ahead and purchased the annual white label package ($1400). Everything was good. Good communication, they set up my account and platform, EVERYTHING was awesome. Fast forward two months (length it took me to build the app). I submitted my app for publishing on September 1st. 1 week later, they sent me an email saying that they are no longer publishing to Apple Store or Google Play, but instead they are now doing PWA's (Progressive Web Apps) which will be available at the end of September. So, they switched their business model and clients are supposed to be okay with that? Anyways, I waited to try out the PWA. Everything was good, until a link to buying gift certificates didn't work. It took them THREE weeks, THREE WEEKS to fix the link\! Needless to say, I lost my very first app client because I wasn't able to perform. I asked for a refund multiple times. They refused to give even a partial refund for the months I haven't used. I strongly advise you NOT to sign up with this company no matter how good it looks. For under $100 I was able to get an awesome performing app published on Apple and google through Fiverr. > > good marketing material ----- ### "Excellent Service" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *3 September 2018* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ease of use and responsiveness of the system > > **Cons**: The preview can be a little restrictive, but it's no great worry. > > I've been using the Appinstitute Appbuilder for some years now and find the system easy to use and they have an excellent, fast responding team. ----- ### "Works amazingly" — 5.0/5 > **Sara** | *6 April 2019* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We got our app built on this software and it works amazingly, i can make changes whenever i need without a line of code\! > > **Cons**: Can't find any fault with the software, it works so good ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/125950/appinstitute?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/125950/appinstitute) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
