When you don't have a dataset, Budibase's built-in database is the perfect solution for building tools from scratch. It's easy to use, scalable, and comes with a tonne of features out of the box.
Views
Views in Budibase are a simple and performant way to filter data. By default, access is inherited from the View's parent table.
Configurable View Access
Configure the minimum access level to a View.

Budibase saves teams 100s of hours building internal tools. Whether you're building an admin panel, or a supplier portal, Budibase makes it super-simple to build apps you're proud of, incredibly fast.
Build apps
Drag-and-drop GUI
Building your app is made a lot easier with Drag and Drop. Simply drag components on to your Budibase layout screen, and you're now ready to style the component as you please.
Auto-generate screens
After you've set your data up, you can generate a fully working CRUD app with 3 clicks. We're pretty proud of this feature and excited for you to try this out!

Budbase has over 30 pre-built components to help you build production-grade apps people enjoy using, really quickly.
Coding optional
With Budibase, coding is optional. For no-coders, it's simple to build an app without JS. For developers, from adding logic to your components to transforming data, Budibase allows to write JavaScript almost anywhere in the builder.
Live evaluation
With Live Evaluation, you can see the output of your code in real-time, directly next to the code editor.
Apps that work on mobile, tablet, desktop
Design apps that work beautiful across multiple devices. Within the design section, you can quickly toggle between devices to ensure your app is always looking great, no matter the device.
Light and dark mode
Out of the box, you can switch your app's design theme from light to dark with just 1 click. You can also configure a brand color for buttons, links, highlights, etc.
Embeds
With the Budibase Embed feature, you can share your public apps outside of Budibase and integrate them directly within websites or apps.
Reusable snippets
Reusable Code Snippets, on the other hand, speed up development by enabling you to write code once and then effortlessly apply it anywhere across your app—no more redundant coding!
Collect data
Data collection, your way
Where you're replacing a paper survey or collecting ideas from employees, Budibase provides you with a platform that allows you to do this easily, quickly, and, most importantly, securely.
Create forms on top of your database
Whilst other form builders require you collect and store data on their databases/servers, with Budibase you can generate/build forms on top of multiple databases including PostgreSQL, MYSQL, Mongo and more, allowing you to store data in your own database on your own servers (if self-hosting).
Multi-step forms
Create multi-step forms and surveys with ease using Budibase. As always, Budibase's flexibility allows you to add actions, validation and logic to each step.
Validation
With Budibase you can set up a whole host of form validation rules - including regex support and some built in validations common with form based apps. Provide custom validation messages for each of your conditions for total validation control and tailored user feedback.
Highly customizable
Forms come in all shapes and sizes and we understand that first hand. For this reason, users can build forms of all levels of complexity with Budibase; including adding extra information for each question, multi-step forms, custom logic, validation, custom styling and mroe.
Automate
Streamline Workflows
Bring the power of automation to any process. Build advanced workflows that incorporate custom logic, conditions, filters, and more. No code needed.
Automate processes
Create multi-step automations with ease
Build automations that automate several tasks at once without coding. We’ve obsessed over making this experience as simple, yet powerful, as possible. When creating an automation you can pick from over 20 triggers and actions.
If/then logic
Add conditions and logic to each step of your automation workflow.
Schedule
Use the CRON trigger to schedule your automations.
Looping
Run an action multiple times, and if you need to, pass that information to the next automation step. An important feature if, for example, you want to send an email to multiple recipients in a database.
Test automations
Test your automations and view the results in the sidebar so that you can continue tweaking your automation until it works the way you want!
Automation logs
Automation logs are a list of logs that display whether an automation was successful or not - including relevant information to help with debugging.
Synchronous automations
Allow users to receive feedback from their automation in the Design section or via a webhook response.
Connect outside
Connect to services outside Budibase
When building tools and automating processes, sometimes its important to push data outside Budibase. With Budibase, you can achieve this in a number of sinmple ways.
Send notifications
Send emails and Slack/Discord notifications when an automation is triggered.
Webhooks
Webhooks allow Budibase to listen for an external application event, and trigger an automation.
Extend automations with Zapier and Make

Scale
Take control
Maximize efficiency with a platform that works at scale and adapts to your needs. Backed by admin features, increased security, world-class support, and more.
Scale
Scale with confidence
Managing and scaling Budibase throughout your organization is a breeze. To make your experience even better, features such as SSO, user onboarding, and RBAC are free. We want you to feel confident when you begin your journey with Budibase.
Role-based access control

Automate the onboarding of new users with email onboarding - you can even customize the content and styles of the emails. If your users don't have emails, you can create usernames and generate passwords too. You can also bulk-upload users from a CSV.
Backups
Backup your apps, including its data and design. Once you backup your app. you can rollback to different snapshots.
User groups
User groups enable you to create groups of users with which you can easily share apps. They are a great timesaver when it comes to user onboarding - simply drop a new user into their team group, and they'll inherit the default access too all the apps assigned with that group.

Enforced SSO is a feature that allows login from a configured identity provider to be required for all of your users. Any existing password users will no longer be able to login after enabling the feature. .
Security
Security is at the core of all new development
We consider privacy and security to be core functions of our platform, as well as foundational requirements for all new feature development. Earning and keeping the trust of our users is our top priority, so we hold ourselves to the highest security standards.
