Why do businesses need a database application?
Businesses of all sizes need to store data and information, ranging from customer details to purchase orders to expenses. Before the democratization of digital technology, this used to be handled using record books and files. But the difficulty with this approach was the durability of the storage source. Digital database applications remove all the drawbacks from the physical database system, and provide businesses with the option of storing any amount of data, on top of the tools to analyze them with ease.
Are database applications only for technically inclined users?
Technology has progressed to a stage that now there are a plethora of database options that don't need an ounce of technical skill from the user. Most of these tools are so user-friendly and intuitive that anyone can pick up and use them, and become an expert in a matter of weeks.
Why should businesses use customized database applications?
Traditional database applications are rigid—they're built for a universal model which will never fully adapt to any business' unique process. On the other hand, custom database applications are flexible and provide the tools businesses need to build databases that are in perfect sync with their processes.
Does Zoho Creator support the import/migration of data in spreadsheets?
The data import feature allows anyone with an existing database in spreadsheets to easily upload them and Creator will simultaneously build an application on the same model. There are also a set of smart data import features that enable users to cleanse, refine, and group data at the time of upload. For more details on this, please head here.
