A few more things:
- It was hard for me to get into design mode again after having tried the form view. I'd make that more prominent. Right now I think it's only in the context menu for the entities, not for the whole db however.
- I see forms, but do you have (dynamic) list views as well? How do I format / generate them?
- Try to get rid of all the "leave this page" browser warnings.
- paragraph text fields behave very odd in Chrome (graphical issues after resizing, I think it also cut some pasted text). I also think rich text capability might be critical there, but I can understand that you wanted to avoid that beast at first.
In general I like the approach - I think it's a very valid business idea to try to give benefits to all those businesses with Excel 'workflow applications'. The ability to do multiuser editing might be a big enough benefit alone to get some customers - maybe you could accentuate more on that. IMO however the UX from the developer end needs a lot of streamlining.
1. What browser/OS version are you using? I would like to reproduce this issue.
2. It's in the context menu you mentioned, and in the upper right corner of the form. We should find some way to make it more prominent.
3. The dynamic list views are generated automatically. When you finish designing a form, just click "<< Back Listing" and it will take you to the listing page.
4. We added the "leave this page" warning because a lot of users have mentioned that they accidentally click on the exit button.
5. There's some special feature that we added to the copy and paste function that might confuse new users. I think we need to disable it by default. The feature is mean to match the field names from the source with the field names in the Ragic form, and put values from the source to their corresponding fields.
Really appreciate the feedback, please let me know if there's any other advices. I can be contacted at jeff at ragic dot com
