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. ----- ### "Numerous bugs and lack of customer service taint an otherwise useful tool" — 3.0/5 > **Leanne** | *5 November 2019* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: -Easy to learn and build numerous apps -Lots of functional field types -Easy to customize CSS and Javascript for each app if desired -Excellent price point > > **Cons**: -Very buggy -Customer service was initially very responsive, but eventually stopped responding to my requests for simple bugs in my app to be fixed, even after numerous attempts to resolve. > > This system worked well for what we needed this year. The main need was to create a system to enter and track points from our various members for year-end awards. This was a complex system to build because of the many different categories involved, and so far Knack has handled it. Building the system was extremely frustrating at times, as fields and properties would sometimes refuse to update, or the system would just hang and not do anything. I have built other apps with much the same issues. Customer service was initially helpful but now seems to ignore my requests for looking into bugs even after multiple attempts to have them resolved. We are on the middle tier plan. For example in one of my apps, the app simply hangs if I sort a certain table by one of the fields. Their answer was to not sort it by that field when using the app. I have also had records that should have been deleted not be deleted. I have put my own stop checks into the app and have not had any corrupted data as of yet, but the issues I've had do concern me. ----- ### "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. 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. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/140788/knack?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/140788/knack) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
