Pros Beginner-friendly A remarkable set of features Compatible with several other services Cons The free version is heavily limited

Zoho Creator free

If you ever tried using Zoho Creator before, you probably know that you won’t be able to do it for free. Zoho Creator has various subscription plans and you’ll need to purchase either one of them if you want to use the product without any restrictions.

However, don’t fret just yet, as we have some good news for you, as well. If you’re not ready to make this commitment just yet, there’s a free version you can use. You just need to create a Zoho account, and you’ll be granted access to it, simple as that.

Know that this free version is heavily limited, so you’ll miss out on many “pro” features. Here’s a list of the free version’s limitations:

• You can only develop one app at a time
• There’s only one user allowed
• You can’t build reports
• There’s no way to share your projects
• No Advanced and AI Fields in the Data Collection and Administration section

• Doesn’t integrate PayPal, iCal Feed, Intuit Quickbooks, Salesforce, Google Calendar, Zoho Books, Zoho Connect, Zoho
• CRM, Zoho Chat, Zoho Subscriptions, Zoho Reports, Zoho Recruit, Zoho Invoice, and Zoho Desk

As you can see, the free version is free for a reason. With so many limitations, it goes beyond the purpose to even consider using it long-term. It’s also worth mentioning that all plans come with a 15-day trial, but you’ll have to upgrade to a paid plan before retrieving it, and that means you’ll have to provide Zoho with valid credit card details.

Nice, user-friendly interface

After reaching the dashboard, Zoho Creator started to feel really familiar. Like we’ve been using it for a long time, which we haven’t. The reason for this lies within Zoho Creator’s very interface, which cleverly combines intuitive controls, and has a user-friendly approach.

The reason you’d use Zoho Creator is if you want to create a mobile app with minimum coding knowledge, and this app helps you do just that. Whether you’re a professional or a novice, this product’s design could fit your needs like a glove.

Beginner-friendly mobile app development platform

All things considered, Zoho Creator really does pack a punch when it comes to quick mobile-friendly app development for users who have limited to no coding knowledge. You can create outstanding projects in no time, while Zoho’s layout guides you through the process step by step.

Even though the product isn’t free, you’ll still be able to access a free version of it, if you don’t need the full range of features, or just want to grow accustomed to the app before purchasing a subscription.
