Retool development is about building the internal tools your company actually needs — admin panels, dashboards, CRUD apps, operational workflows — on top of your existing databases and APIs. A Retool development agency builds and maintains these tools so your engineers don't have to. And when Retool's per-seat pricing gets too expensive to justify, that same agency can migrate everything to Next.js dashboards you fully own, with no strings attached.

よくある質問
When should I use Retool vs. building a custom dashboard?
Start with Retool when you need internal tools fast and you're under 15 seats. The per-seat cost pays for itself in speed — days instead of weeks. Once you grow past 20–30 users, or you need pixel-perfect UI that Retool can't deliver, a custom Next.js dashboard becomes cheaper and more flexible over time.
How much does Retool cost per seat?
Retool's Business plan starts at $10/user/month for cloud. Enterprise pricing — which is what you need for SSO, audit logs, and self-hosting — can reach $50+/user/month. A 30-person Enterprise team can hit $18K+/year easily. A custom Next.js dashboard costs nothing per seat. You pay once to build it, and that's it.
Can you migrate my existing Retool apps to Next.js?
Yes. We handle screen-by-screen migrations that preserve every query, workflow, and permission rule. Your team keeps using Retool throughout the process — we cut over one app at a time so there's no downtime. Most migrations wrap up in 4–8 weeks, depending on how complex things have gotten.
Is Retool secure enough for SOC 2 compliance?
Retool Cloud can technically satisfy SOC 2, but auditors frequently flag third-party query execution as a risk. Running self-hosted Retool inside your own VPC resolves most data residency concerns. We help you evaluate both options and configure audit logging, SSO, and role-based access to hit your compliance targets.
How long does it take to build a Retool app?
A simple CRUD admin panel takes 3–5 days. A multi-page operations dashboard with workflows, permissions, and API integrations runs 2–4 weeks. Either way, you'll have a working prototype connected to real data within the first week — enough to validate the approach before we go any further.
Do you support Retool self-hosted deployments?
Yes. We deploy and configure self-hosted Retool on AWS, GCP, or your existing Kubernetes cluster, giving you full control over data residency, network policies, and version updates. Your engineering team doesn't need to learn Retool's deployment stack. We handle that part.
