Hey Guys

I am an entrepreneur and want to talk to you about my latest project. My new project is an eCommerce store for technology gadgets and also to provide reviews about the best technology products. Therefore I am looking for website builders and eCommerce platforms to help me create my website. I have heard good reviews about Caspio.

As You Know about Caspio. Caspio is the world’s leading low-code platform for building online database applications without coding. In Caspio, you create applications by connecting to your data sources and dragging-and-dropping tasks onto an interface. It enables anyone to quickly create custom business applications, including forms, reports, charts & graphs, dashboards, workflow automation, and more. The platform also includes a point-and-click interface for advanced programming, if needed. Leading organizations use Caspio worldwide, including NASA, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Toyota, Coca-Cola, Duke University, Harvard University, and over 15,000 other companies and educational institutions. However, choosing a website developer is a huge decision, so before taking any practical step, I have some questions about Caspio. Hope I will get answers here.

Here is what I can suggest to answer most of your questions, if not all. Create a trial account. This way you'll get a Solutions Consultant that you can contact for promos and/or assistance with checking out solutions for your use case.

You can also ask them about the comparison of Caspio with another product that you are eyeing to get. But as far as I know, Airtable is simply an integration of multiple third party applications(not entirely sure) so the forms may not be as customizable as Caspio.

For the web hosting and Caspio pairing, WordPress is a pretty solid choice but their "Themes" conflicts a bunch with Caspio's "styles" (CSS/UI design). Weebly is a good choice too. Just steer away from GoDaddy or Wix because I believe they convert embedded pages to iFrame. This might be technical information but in short, they convert the forms of Caspio into another format which is quite troublesome and limiting at times. I suggest posting another thread in the "Deployment" section of this Forum to get recommendations for a good Web Hosting to pair with Caspio.
