GREAT COMPANY

The best part about using BuildFire is that no coding background is needed and I still ended up with the app I wanted. It saved me a ton of money and time that I would have spent on coding lessons. Their live support team answered all the questions I had and replies were fast, I did not have to wait for hours to get a response. They also have a good selection of templates that can be customized, which was a great thing to see.
Only problem I had is that it took some time to familiarize myself with the editor but overall, it is a great platform.

I had an all-satisfying experience using BuildFire. I built and launched an app for my course in just a few days. What helped to to get the app up fast were the integrations. I could connect it to my Vimeo account as well as my Stripe account in order to take payments, it made me link my video content very easily. I would recommend this app to newbies like me who require an app done fast and cost effective, it is the real deal.

Great Experience

I have used many app development software before but I could not find one that did not require coding at all. That's when I heard about BuildFire. At first, I could not believe that it would be so easy to build your app without coding(right templates), but I was delighted to be wrong. I did need some assistance from the support team, but It was easy to use and understand for anyone.
I don't think there are any major cons about this app. Overall, it is a great experience using BuildFire and I will recommend it to others.

This app development platform has …helped me save money with no coding background needed

This app development platform has changed the game. Making it so much easier to develop an app and still stay within budget. Their cost effectiveness has left me with enough money to comfortably continue my project. I have no background in coding , but Buildfire has made it easy for me to bring my app to life. They have just made it very novice friendly.

The Best App Development Platform

I was struggling with the need to develop an app for my eCommerce website. Weighing the available options, I did not think that hiring a freelancer to do it for me would work best for me since I did not have a lot of time to do the follow-up. However, after contacting BuildFire, their customer support helped me get a price estimate for developing the app. My app was delivered in a few days and it was perfect. All I can say is that BuildFire is a great app.

BUILD AN APP WITH NO CODING?!

What I like the most is the fact that I don't know any coding and I can make an app I want. I had idea for a while, but it was really hard for me to learn to code. In addition, BuildFire provides great customer support. When I needed help I just started a live message thread and someone replied right away to help me. Only thing is it takes a little time for me to get use to the editor. Overall of good platform.

good experience with BuildFire

Pros: I have been having very good experience with BuildFire, the support from the representatives was great and their services were on point. I advise people interested in building mobile apps to use BuildFire’s platform.

Cons: I wanted to get my app published right away, but it took 3 weeks. Still in a timely manner.

Great app and platform

After doing a couple days of research I turned to BuildFire. Their customer service is very helpful and responsive to get you pointed in the right direction. Follow the editor’s guidelines and you will be fine. Great overall platform and I would recommend it.

I can finally build an app

I have a wonderful idea I needed to transform to an app, but my lack of coding knowledge has prevented me.i was searching for a platform to build an app without coding knowledge that was when I discovered buildfire. At first the editor was looking strange to me, I had to contact the customer support, and also did little googling. It has been an awesome experience so far, I've been able to create my new app, and im really amazed I could ever build such an app. All thanks to buildfire.

A great company to work with!

BuildFire provided us with great service from the sale to the delivery of the app. The app itself is all what we wanted, very customizable and easy to use. Minor challenges with the customization, but nothing extraordinary.

I like it

In addition to most fascinating customizable templates, the cost involved in development and designing is quite very reasonable. There is also almost zero need of maintenance and complex keep up activities. The customers representatives are super friendly and helpful. I’m very impressed.

Best app development platform for non-coders

After using few software on the internet, I couldn’t find any platform that did not required some coding background. Then someone close to me advised me to use BuildFire to build my apps. At first I thought it would be the same as rest of the platforms I used, but I was able to build my app on my own with a slight help from the Support Team, which was something I was looking for. It took few days to make my app and test it, the support team also showed me how to manage the app and all the information necessary was explained to me in an understandable way.
I have no cons at all in my mind regarding BuildFire except for a few minor changes on the editor. Overall I am satisfied with BuildFire and their services and will continue to use the platform.

Reliable platform to build an app

Reliable platform to build an app. My work schedule was making it really hard to find a good freelancer that could build my app on a reasonable price. BuildFire provides amazing customer support. Whenever I was facing a bump on the road I was using the live chat.

Very much user friendly

I am a college student, currently working on term projects. I am Finance major, nothing near Computer Science and I was still able to build the app I needed to efficiently manage my school and internship tasks. I liked the way it permits me to connect my app with my other accounts and link more data. The Customer Support team was really resourceful.
