Fibery Reviews

“Top tool for me!”

Pros

Building a custom data model is pretty easy here and the overall design is very well thought out.

Cons

Automated backups are missing and I feel like the notification system could use some improvement.

“offers an amazing support”

Pros

The flexibility is a huge advantage and the customer support has been excellent. I also like the regular updates and the transparency around how the product is evolving.

Cons

It can feel quite complex at times and the lack of desktop and mobile apps is definitely noticeable.

“ideal tool for teams”

Pros

Experienced teams can use it to build databases and workflows that truly support and run their operations effectively.

Cons

Because it can be applied to so many parts of a business, it's tempting to use it everywhere. That said its user roles and permissions setup is still fairly limited so you have to be careful when handling sensitive data.

“After setting it up, it is unbeatable”

Pros

Fibery is an incredibly flexible and powerful tool that can be adapted to all kinds of workflows and use cases.

Cons

There is still a bit of a learning curve even if it is not as steep as it might seem at first and it is definitely not something I would recommend for mobile use.

“allows automation for every database”

Pros

The app is quite flexible and it lets us automate every database we create while connecting with the apps we already prefer to use.

Cons

For our particular use cases such as startup operations and software management it's honestly hard to point to any real weaknesses.

“flexible architecture that adapts”

Pros

Its completely open architecture lets us shape the system exactly the way we need it.

Cons

I'd really like a way to create filtered reports that could be emailed to our management team especially since they are not using the product yet.

“Great workflows with huge flexibility”

Pros

Fibery lets you create just about any workflow you can think of. Also the built in primitive building blocks are designed really well and are easy to use. And there have been plenty of moments where I've thought, that's really clever.

Cons

It probably only needs one or two small improvements before it can truly replace Slack, on top of everything else it already replaces. Also it could use stronger integration with other software tools.

“Makes tracking simple”

Pros

I really love how conceptual and flexible it is. And when you combine that with the ability to link different items together, it becomes very easy to keep track of everything thats happening.

Cons

The whiteboard still needs work. It can be pretty tricky to use right now although it definitely shows a lot of potential.

“Ideal hub for everything”

Pros

Fibery is not the kind of product you can sum up with a simple this is good, that is bad because that misses what it actually does. The whole point is in how everything can be woven together quickly through no-code/low-code building and connected with outside tools to create whatever kind of workplace system you need. Whether you are working solo or like us running a small venture studio with several different branches and businesses, it brings everything together into one elegant central hub with interconnected databases and tools.

Cons

Honestly nothing major comes to mind. Sometimes it makes you stop and think more carefully about how you want to structure things but I'd still take that flexibility over the inflexible, more static tools out there. As many other platforms give you a ready-made setup but keep you boxed in. But this one gives you room to build things the way you actually want as long as you're willing to think beyond the usual limits.

“tool is built to help you grow”

Pros

The best parts of this tool is how customizable it is. We can keep adding new processes whenever we need to and adjust things as the company grows and changes.

Cons

I feel like timeline view could use a bit of a refresh.

“Top data and task management tool”

Pros

Fibery lets me handle simple datasets, ideas, tasks and similar work without any hassle, while also giving me the ability to build and manage more complex issues and structures when needed.

Cons

it still lacks blueprints which would help provide users with a more guided pipeline.

“Highly flexible for any workflow”

Pros

It's incredibly customizable as we can build pretty much anything we can think of with it.

Cons

One thing I am still missing is the ability to paste markdown files directly.

“way to simple to use”

Pros

Setting up processes in it is pretty easy and doesn't take much effort.

Cons

At times it seems a bit too open for users. So I would like to have required fields and more detailed workflow controls.

“powerful hub for company”

Pros

Fibery has become our central place for storing policies, procedures and company knowledge. Also the relational database is very powerful and has helped us organize many processes that were previously scattered everywhere. We use it to manage everything from annual OKRs to vehicle assignments by facility and for which insurance policies belong to which vehicles and even which government tax account number is tied to each legal entity we run.

Cons

Because it is such a blank canvas it can take some effort to get users fully on board even with the available templates. I'd also love to see stronger out of the box support for a few task management basics especially recurring tasks, along with PDF export and dedicated mobile apps. The option to use JavaScript for workflow automation is definitely useful but it's also somewhat restricted because there are not many libraries available for connecting with third-party software.

“Strong tool still fun to use”

Pros

It is built around data and is user friendly right away. Also it works as a no-code app builder and it's actually fun to use which makes the whole experience even better.

Cons

Some parts of the reporting still feel a bit non user friendly to me.

“a lot of customization options”

Pros

Fibery gives us a very flexible setup with customizable models, fields and layouts which makes it easy to shape the system around our workflow. The automations, apps and reporting tools add a lot of value and the customer support has also been consistently helpful.

Cons

At the time this was published it still didn't offer a way to manage permissions for records and documents.

“Fits in almost all the processes”

Pros

It is highly flexible and there are plenty of ways to automate workflows to fit different processes.

Cons

A few features are still missing which could make it unsuitable for some systems. Permissions are also fairly limited too since there's no way to lock down individual fields.

“One of the best software out there”

Pros

This tool does a really nice job of balancing flexibility with ease of use. It feels like they got that mix right without making the product complicated.

Cons

it still doesn't seem very well known or widely adopted yet.

“customer support is amazing”

Pros

Fibery is a great tool and the team was really supportive in helping us get started. They were also open to adapting the product to better fit what we needed.

Cons

Sharing information with external stakeholders was challenging and getting the read only view working without accounts took some time.

“A complete customizable powerhouse”

Pros

It lets us run practically every part of the business from one place. Plus it helps keep all teams aligned around the same goals by connecting everything together so information is shared instead of trapped in silos. The biggest strength is definitely how customizable it is. Its automations, flexible formulas for metrics and KPIs and integrations with third-party apps add a lot of value and make the platform especially powerful.

Cons

Because it connects so many things, there is a learning curve at first. You do not need to be a programmer but having a technical mindset helps if you want to unlock its full potential especially when building custom metric formulas or setting up more advanced automations. To its credit, it has become easier to use over the past few months and it seems to keep improving. The other limitation is reporting which is not really out of the box for executives or non-technical users. There are plenty of graphs and visualizations but they seem better suited to a more technical audience.
