Interesting. They raised $32M in Sep 2022 and now are shutting down because got acqui-hired by Airtable. Wonder what happens to the investors in this case ? Is this considered a loss overall ? What about existing customers of Airplane ?
I like that you are bootstrapping it. It does not look like a limitation anymore, but more as an advantage. How do you differentiate in terms of product?
Hi, @vlugovsky. How long will UIBakery be live, what term do you guarantee?
do you provide any guidance on how to migrate from Airplane to your platform?
UI Bakery is truly incredible. Our development team has adopted it for our front end development process over a year ago and we got tremendous results.
Our speed of building apps has gone up a lot, and what I really like is that Advanced developers like the ones on my team do not have to be limited by limitations in UI Bakery, as there is just so much room to put custom components and to control the functionality of the apps built in it. We were literally able to restructure our entire software development process and can now build big functional enterprise systems in a matter of weeks, not many months or years!
I also really like their company and their team. We have an enterprise agreement with them and have a dedicated chat with their team. We got the best ever support with these guys. Not only do they make sure to attend to us usually in as little as an hour, but they also are very proactive about figuring out our needs and they are very receptive to the idea of improving their product accordingly. This is the best support I have ever received on this Earth, and I am not exaggerating.
They innovate their product very frequently. Every week there is a major new version update and the speed of advancement is huge with them.
I think they are a very solid company. They make very good decisions and their team is smart. From what I understand they are a private and profitable business so they definitely won't be going out of business.
If you aren't using UI Bakery in your development operation right now, you are missing out on a huge speed boost, and the slow traditional development process you have is costing you a ton more money than it would cost to even get the highest tier of Enterprise plan of UI Bakery. By not using UI Bakery, you're wasting time and money every day and it is a lot more that way. So you're paying the price either way, you just have to chose which price you want to pay.
So if you're a software builder company serious about speeding up and streamlining your development process and want to innovate and speed it up with the best technology available and work with the most competent product team on this planet, give these guys a shout, and even better, get their Enterprise plan.
The only way to do it is with UI Bakery.
