FAQ
FAQ
- Does Softr need Airtable?
- Softr works best with Airtable or Google Sheets as its data backend.
- Does Softr work without an external database?
- No, and that is the design rather than a gap: Softr builds the interface over data you already keep somewhere else, which is why it is fast to stand up and why it names needing a fully custom database as a reason to look elsewhere. Price the data source alongside it, not after it.
- Softr or Bubble?
- Softr if the data already exists and you need an interface over it quickly; Bubble if the application logic is the product. Softr names wanting pixel-level design control and a fully custom database as reasons to look elsewhere, and lists being less custom than Bubble among its own drawbacks.
- Why does Softr score 4.5 out of 5 here?
- The score is computed, not assigned: 33 of 35 for documented capabilities, 22 of 25 for published pricing, 20 of 20 for free access and 15 of 20 for the integration list. It loses capability points for not publishing AI features. The number measures how much you can verify before paying, not how good the tool is to use.
