Convertigo

Overview

Convertigo combines a No Code Studio for business teams with a Low Code Studio and pro-code support for developers. That split can bring different skill sets into one application project; unlimited developers also means teams are not capped by developer seats. The platform targets pixel-perfect web, mobile and desktop applications rather than a single app format.

Convertigo’s enterprise orientation is apparent in its hosting choices and support package. Applications can run on managed Cloud, on premises or on a customer’s own Cloud infrastructure. License fees include an SLA, 9/5 support five days a week, hosting on managed Cloud or on premises, and version upgrades. That can reduce the burden of arranging these services separately, though the per-user price is not the whole cost picture: internal-user pricing is based on application end users, while external-user pricing depends on actual usage volume.

Key features

• Two development studios: Business teams can use the No Code Studio, while professional developers have Low Code Studio and pro-code support. This makes Convertigo relevant when an organization wants both groups involved, but it is more platform than a team seeking a narrowly focused no-code builder may need.
• Broad connectivity: Convertigo supports REST, SOAP, SQL and OData, and says it includes more than 300 application and database connectors. Named options include Mistral AI, CouchDB, IBM 3270/5250, DB400, DB2, Oracle, MySQL, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Google Drive, Kafka and ChatGPT. That range is useful for applications spanning modern services and established enterprise systems.
• Offline operation: Full Sync synchronizes application data after connectivity returns, enabling use while offline. This is a practical advantage for mobile work where a network connection may not be continuous.
• Identity and security: Built-in authentication supports LDAP, OAuth 2.0, OpenID and SAML 2.0, including Windows Active Directory integration. Convertigo also describes built-in encryption, secure connections and access control, a useful fit for enterprise applications that need these controls.

Pricing

Convertigo uses a freemium model, with a 7-day trial and paid plans from €15/user/mo. The Community Edition is free, but limited to one environment. That cap makes it suitable for an initial evaluation or a compact setup, not a development process that needs separate environments.

Starter Edition costs 15.00 EUR per month, billed per user. It includes No Code Studio, a 99.5% uptime guarantee, 9/5 support and an SLA, LDAP/OAuth/OpenID, on-premises or managed Cloud hosting, two environments, offline data and NoSQL. The second environment and offline support make Starter a more credible working option than Community for teams deploying connected or mobile applications. The published Starter feature list does not include all the additions named for Enterprise.

Enterprise Edition costs 20.00 EUR per month, billed per user. It adds a dedicated CSM, DevOps integration, billing and analytics, RPA connectors, unlimited environments and SAP BAPI connectors. This tier is the stronger fit for organizations that need those operational capabilities or several deployment environments; the 5.00 EUR monthly per-user step up from Starter buys specific additions rather than simply more seats. Developers are unlimited, but application end-user pricing still follows different bases for internal and external users.

Platforms

Convertigo supports Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows, web, API and self-hosted deployment. Studio downloads are provided for Windows, Mac and Linux, while hosting options include managed Cloud, on-premises and the customer’s own Cloud infrastructure. This combination offers deployment flexibility, though organizations should choose based on their target applications and hosting requirements.

Who it's for

Convertigo is a strong candidate for SMEs and large organizations building applications across business and developer teams, particularly in banking, insurance and retail. Its connector breadth, enterprise authentication, offline synchronization and hosting options make it more compelling where applications must connect to varied systems or fit established operational requirements. A small team looking for a simple, single-purpose builder may find the enterprise-oriented scope unnecessary.

Pros and cons

• Pro: No Code and Low Code Studios serve business teams and professional developers within one platform.
• Pro: More than 300 connectors, offline synchronization and support for legacy systems broaden the kinds of applications it can serve.
• Pro: Hosting choices and included SLA, support and upgrades suit organizations that want operational services alongside development tools.
• Con: The free Community Edition has only one environment, limiting its usefulness for teams that need separation between stages.
• Con: Internal and external application users are priced on different bases, so the per-user starting price alone does not settle the likely cost.

Alternatives

For a broader shortlist, compare Low-Code Development Platforms and No-code app builders. FlutterFlow is another freemium option for Android, iOS, web, Linux, macOS and Windows; its free plan is capped at two projects, 10 Lite credits, five lifetime AI requests and two API endpoints. Omnis Studio offers a free-for-life Community Edition, but deployment is limited by concurrent users, with five concurrent users in its plan details. Protogrid is a freemium option spanning Android, iOS, web, API, self-hosted and desktop platforms.

AgilePoint NX has a free Community Edition for 25 named users and two applications, making it worth comparing if those caps fit the intended use. Alpha Anywhere offers a free developer edition for web and mobile development, unlimited apps and connections to any data source. Anvil has a free plan with unlimited apps, cloud hosting, one developer and a 50,000-row Data Table cap. Draftbit has a free tier for Android, iOS and web with three projects, two apps per project and one REST API integration per project. Retool is a freemium alternative with a free plan and a Team tier priced at $10/mo per builder and $5/mo per internal user; consider it when that builder-and-user pricing structure is a closer fit.

Verdict

Choose Convertigo if your organization needs a shared no-code and low-code platform with broad connectors, offline data synchronization and a choice of hosting models. Its strongest case is the combination of development flexibility and enterprise-oriented deployment and support; look elsewhere if a one-environment free tier is too restrictive or you need simpler pricing across internal and external users.
