### "Wonderful and educational experience!"

January 3, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love that even though I don't have any experience in coding, working with Buildfire 3.0, they make sure that I am able to worry less and focus on the bigger things. Not to mention, after some technical difficulties on my part their customer support was so wonderful and understanding! Their great selection of templates and customization is an added bonus that allows me to truly be creative.

Cons

The only downside was the time it took to get accustomed to their editor, all and all Buildfire 3.0 is a wonderful tool that I would recommend to anyone!

### "Would recommend staying away"

March 23, 2016

1.0

This company doesn't have an office, they all work remote, but will tell you different. Their product is really behind a lot of the other app builders and when I signed up with this company I was let down from literally the first week. First of all their support NEVER answers the phone. It was so hard to get any information out of them after you sign up. They will call you back very quickly when you are signing up but not when you are an actual customer for them. Second, the product is just so far behind other products in the market I would stray away. I think the only benefit of BuildFire is their pricing is lower and that's for a clear reason. It simply isn't up to par with other platforms. They also claim native applications but in reality they are just HTML5 mobile websites. They deny this but can see it by the elements seen when loading and the general quality of the product. I'd personally look around a bit more before deciding to go with BuildFire. They promise a ton but don't really deliver.

### "Great software!"

January 3, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love how they have great customer support and the fact that it is a low cost developing option. I also love their variety of templates and customization options.

Cons

Without much knowledge of coding, I had a hard time getting started. I felt pretty lost at first. But all the templates gave me a good place to start. It was just customizing it that took some time.

### "Easy app to build apps :)"

November 11, 2019

5.0

My overall experience has been pretty good. It’s very easy to use

Pros

It’s very user friendly with drag and drop options. You can upload your own designs to fit in their templates in creative ways.

Cons

If you want more specific custom actions you’ll need some design:coding done, and you have to get creative with some of the apps to make them work in your favor

### "My experience with this app was awesome."

February 7, 2018

5.0

It is easy to use the app since it does not need one to be perfect in coding.

Pros

Programming is always hectic to me but I have an awesome experience with BuildFire version 3.0 because it has low maintenance and upkeep cost. One also has a option of customizing this app without any background coding. With this app, I enjoy excellent customer support plus other unique features of BuildFire and due to this, developing an app takes me a short time.

Cons

It takes some time to familiarize with the editor. However, this is a perfect app for anyone who wants to develop any app.

### "Terrible Service and A Wast of Money"

September 20, 2020

1.0

Pros

The price is relatively cheap compared to other plarforms

Cons

I have been waiting for 3+ months for the app launch. Their customer team knows nothing about the progress and their development team keeps making mistakes driving App Store and Google play declining the submission. No reasonable explanation to customers but only endless waiting.

### "Wow. I never knew app-building could be this simple!"

November 30, 2017

I built my first app! There's a small learning curve but, nothing too bad. I believe it can be used by anyone and everyone.

Pros

I liked that I was able to build a mobile app in a very user-friendly interface that didn't involve me using and code or programming. There are templates already provided that look amazing and unlocks the potential to build many different apps!

### "Great software which allows me to program apps without coding experience."

November 25, 2017

5.0

Pros

I love that there is no coding background needed and you can launch your app within weeks. I use it to teach students at hobby class at PORG. Plus it is real good price to value ratio.

Cons

It took me few days to get oriented in BuildFire and it also has few templates so it is not for advanced programmers really.

I got my best and Will get more.

Pros

Absolutely astonishing service, highly skilled work with a strong taste of modern design and creativity. I was so happy that my colleague referred me to buildfire Mobile App development. I just had it with the other company that was working on building a website for us. I dropped them in a heartbeat after I saw the quality work this company put forth to help me as a small business grow within my network. Very satisfied

December 30, 2017

Being able to create my app on my own. Which means I wouldn't have to hire anyone to do it. Saves cost.

Pros

They are very easy to operate. Even for someone like me with no coding experience, it was straightforward and quick for me to create an app. Their templates are very elegant, and they offer options for customization. Also, their customer service is eager to help. Again their price was great at the time of purchase for the service they render. Would recommend to all.

Cons

It is difficult to customize without coding background. Takes time to get used to the editor. Had to look up some of the process

### "Did not have success with partner program"

April 26, 2016

1.0

I joined the Buildfire partner program with great expectations. However, once I joined it was really difficult to sell the mobile apps and support was hard to get to. My biggest complaint was the excuses around the way things work. Would not take feedback or acknowledge issues. The builder is pretty easy to use but the apps being produced are indeed HTML5 like the other reviews state. They are not native, however I was sold on the apps being native. This lead to some interesting conversations with clients who were looking for more than a mobile website and an actual mobile app. I will say the apps are easy to build but it was really hard to sell because of the lack of use and functionality in the apps. Cancelling my account was also pretty difficult.

Buildfire has given me the opportunity to push toward forward thinking within the business and show the leaders the opportunities for our people, customers and the business with the use of apps. Apps are a useful everyday tool that everyone uses. This is a great time to utilise the right tools to build our business.

Pros

As a newby to app programming and design, I fond the Buidfire software extremely easy to use and understand, it is probably the best software for those learning how to build an app.

Cons

I couldn't find any faults or issues, although I am still learning how to use the software.
