Glide Plans ( Tiered )
I was skeptical about no-code but Bubble proved me wrong. I built a B2B client portal with complex permissions, Stripe billing, and real-time notifications. The learning curve is real — give yourself 2–3 weeks — but once it clicks, you're unstoppable. Performance has been solid at our scale.
Coming from Webflow, Bubble felt overwhelming at first. The editor UX isn't as polished, and performance on complex apps can feel sluggish. That said, nothing else lets you build a full database-driven app without code. The community forums are excellent — almost every problem has been solved by someone.
Used Bubble to ship our MVP in 6 weeks, which was genuinely impressive. But once we needed real capacity, the jump from Growth to Team ($29 to $529/mo) was brutal for a bootstrapped startup. The server unit model is also confusing to reason about. Would love a mid-tier option.
Real apps built with Bubble by the community. Click any card to see full details.
Bubble now suggests the next workflow action based on your current logic using an embedded AI assistant — dramatically speeds up building complex multi-step flows.
Completely redesigned responsive layout system with per-breakpoint controls. Existing apps auto-migrate with one-click. Mobile apps now build 3× faster.
Team plan subscribers can now create development branches, make changes in isolation, and merge them back — similar to Git branching. Long requested by professional teams.
Fixed significant performance degradation on apps with 1M+ rows caused by query planner regression. Apps now load 40–60% faster under heavy data loads.
Rebuilt plugin API with TypeScript support, better error handling, and a new sandbox testing environment. Developer documentation fully rewritten.
