> **Pros**: Knack is a flexible no-code platform for building custom databases and web apps. It’s easy to organize data, create forms, and set up workflows without coding.
> 
> **Cons**: Knack can feel a bit complex for beginners, and some advanced features require learning its logic and formulas. The interface may feel limited for highly customized designs
> 
> Overall, Knack is a powerful and reliable tool for managing data and building apps. Once familiar with it, it greatly improves organization and workflow efficiency for teams and businesses.

### "Choose your own adventure" — 5.0/5

> **Roger** | *29 April 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I appreciate its flexibility, power and user-friendliness for basic tasks.
> 
> **Cons**: The flipside of its power is that there are many features we're not managing to use because of our own internal, technical limitations.
> 
> Very positive. Knack has helped my nonprofit manage its data more effectively.

### "Refused to cancel after free trial, said email was inadequate notice of intent" — 2.0/5

> **Alan** | *6 June 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Sounds like it might be easy to use, could obscure a lot of development detail.
> 
> **Cons**: Didn't really get a chance to use it, and forgot to cancel within the 30 day window. OK, I'm out $25, my fault and I don't have a problem with that. &#10;&#10;So I reply to one of their inquiry, follow up sales emails, say I need to cancel, I can't use it, WELL within the second ( the first PAID ) month that I am subscribed. &#10;&#10;So I assume they might refund the first month out of goodwill, but of course they are not obligated so I don't mind if they don't. &#10;&#10;But -- fun news-- despite TWO emails in that 2nd month requesting cancellation, ( I am not using it and not loading their servers or using their tech support in any way whatsoever, it cost them zero to have me subscribed and not even logging on) &#10;&#10;They Bill me for a SECOND subscription month , because i didn't go through some "cancellation process". &#10;&#10;If they are too dumb to prefer the extra $25 they scrounged off me to maintaining good will public image, I can't imagine they have personalities I want to deal with long term.
> 
> Very Bad. Trifecta of petty, greedy, and dumb.

### "Knack review from experienced database creator and user" — 5.0/5

> **Daniel** | *2 March 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: No. 1 feature I love is that they don't charge per user. They have Starter, Pro and Corporate plans and prices are reasonable. I also like the ease with which a relational database can be configured and the built in functionality to format and print a report is ideal for what I need.
> 
> **Cons**: I am a paid user on the Starter Plan and I do not have any dislikes about Knack at this stage, except perhaps the "powered by Knack" branding which requires upgrading to the Pro Plan to be able to remove it. Having said that, the branding text appears at the bottom of the pdf reports and can be removed by editing the pdf later.
> 
> The learning experience has been good with prompt and helpful responses from Knack to any support queries. The built in functionality in the starter plan has more than met my needs is far superior to numerous other database management platforms I have used.

### "Knack is very helpful" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *31 December 2019* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that in Knack I can access all-inclusive data, and see it reported in a variety of ways. I can opt for simple summary reports, more complex detailed reports, or even colorful and pretty graphs. I can use a wide variety of parameters to create the report, and I can sort the included data in a variety of ways. I can also export data in different formats. Knack is extremely flexible for me. Full disclosure - I am a frequent Knack user, but I do not record data into Knack, nor do I set up the databases at all. That magic is all done by someone else, so I cannot comment on the administrator aspects of Knack.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes Knack will log me out while I am in the process of using it. I try to accept the blame when this happens because I always have too many tabs open in my browser, and I often work in 2 different sections of Knack simultaneously. However, it is definitely frustrating.&#10;&#10;Also, I have a pet peeve about the number of items I can view in one page of a report. For a report with lots of items, I have to navigate forward or back between many pages. I would much prefer to scroll further down the same page to see data in a long report. I don't know of any way to alter the number of items per page.
> 
> We use knack to store multiple sets of data. It is extremely helpful in tracking donations (and donors), restricted grants (and foundations/organizations who provide grants), and complex volunteer jobs for a non-profit. We are able to track and analyze all of this information through Knack. I especially like that we can attach documents to records in Knack so all of the information we need is right in one place. Also, being able to set up scheduled reminders is a lifesaver to ensure that we won't miss deadlines for important tasks.
