BEST OF THE APP STORE DATABASES
"I found it easy to create databases and tables, to import and export data, design appropriate layouts, powerful filtering for fields, and also a very good formula field. Easily the best of the App Store databases."

Good database, not-so-good documentation
Laguna Sailor
I’d give this app five stars if it was documented properly. It is a capable, general-purpose database. It won’t do real heavy lifting (like FileMaker Pro), but it will handle the needs of most small-to-medium size businesses. Its only real problem is a lack of proper documentation, which gives the impression that the developer is good at programming, but not really up to professional standards, as far as documentation goes.I have used relational databases for years, from dBase 3 to SQL Server, and I am pretty comfortable creating and maintaining databases. I am finding myself able to learn the app, but it is taking me about a week of evenings just to figure out how the app does things. And that’s a shame, because once I figure out an area of the app, I do like their approach. So, I can only recommend this ap on a qualified basis. Those unfamiliar with relational databases will probably have a tough time figuring out how to use this app, and even old SQL hands are likely to invest more time than they would like learning it.
Great performance - a major improvement over Bento
Tdillion
I bought Ninox to replace Apple’s Bento, which was no longer supported and had become worse with every OS upgrade. I did not want to spend a lot of money on database software as my data needs are rather simple. I have been delighted that Ninox has great performance and excellent search features at a reasonable cost and I am very happy with it as a replacement for Bento. In its final stage, Bento could take 30 minutes just to open the database and look at one record. The same task with Ninox takes two minutes or less. So I love Ninox! I am excited about what I will be able to do with Ninox as I work with it more, and as my database needs grow.I have found the documentation to be adequate. Through a combination of experimentation and reading the manual, I have been able to set up everything in Ninox that I previously had in Bento. The instructions and pictures in the Ninox manual are not identical to the Ninox software on my computer, so some extrapolation has been required. I am not a developer, but I have created simple applications with Microsoft Access and with large enterprise databases; and with that background I have been able to achieve my goals with Ninox with only a little effort. So I fully agree that Ninox is an easy-to-use database, and also agree that the documentation could be better. Users who are starting with Ninox as their first database expeirence may need to educate themselves elsewhere about basic database concepts.
BEST CUSTOMER SUPPORT I HAVE EVER HAD!
MidnightSunAK
Is this database program perfect? Of course not! It’s definitely the best I’ve found for iOS & Apple / Mac computers and devices. However, this company has the most amazing customer service and support for their products that I have EVER experienced with any company EVER. I’ve used the desktop app, mobile app and now Ninox Cloud for almost 2 years and every single time I’ve ever had a problem, they respond to me and fix or otherwise address the issue within 48 hours or less (during the business week.) They have been incredibly responsive to suggestions and feedback and are constantly working towards improving their product and increasing the ways in which it can be used to help their customers. While it might take you longer to learn to use it than other products out there, it’s worth the time you’ll spend learning it. It’s also an incredibly good value for what you pay to purchase and use the app. I love this company and they’ve earned my respect and loyalty for years to come!I use this app to track all of the impounds, auctions, sales, client letters vehicles, property owners etc. for my family’s towing business and I need to have access to the information for our business at all times from any device I have on hand. This program meets that need and seemlessly / instantly syncs to the cloud. Now that they’ve added my ability to grant access to other employees within the business through their own apple icloud ID’s, I have exactly what I need to make things run smoothly and use this app the way I need it to work. I strongly recommend it and hope others will give it a chance!
Best $35 I've spent in a long time
Dexter Dog
Before this week, I had been using Excel to keep track of a long list of locations with a bunch of columns, but I finally cracked -- just too much horizontal scrolling in Excel -- and started looking for database soltuions. I had used FileMaker many years ago for a similar project, but I knew that the current version is expensive and almost certainly overkill for what I'm doing. (I just needed the ability to enter data, and to import and export CSV files for use in a web app.) I found Ninox in the App Store from a Google Search and took a chance, and I'm very glad I did. I was up and running in under 30 minutes, without reading instructions. (I eventually did need to read some of the online documentation for a few import/export things, but that was a quick process.) If you're familiar with database schemas, most of the features are pretty clear. I wouldn't say it's for newbies, but you don't need much database expertise to use this, and you don't need SQL experience. Knock on wood, the app has been very stable -- I've had zero crashes, and the CSV files I've imported and exported have worked perfectly. It's also quite speedy on my 2015 MacBookPro running High Sierra. Highly recommended!
