The short version

  • Each has a real cost: AppSheet starter plan at $5 per user per month limits the native database to 5 databases at 2,500 rows each; WeWeb there is no database, authentication provider or server-side logic layer, so a WeWeb project is always at least two subscriptions and the total cost is never the price on the pricing page.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

AppSheet

  • Starter plan at $5 per user per month limits the native database to 5 databases at 2,500 rows each
  • Enterprise Plus at $20 per user per month can only be purchased by a Google Workspace Administrator
  • Free exploration is capped at 10 users

WeWeb

  • There is no database, authentication provider or server-side logic layer, so a WeWeb project is always at least two subscriptions and the total cost is never the price on the pricing page.
  • Self-hosting and the more useful delivery options sit on higher tiers, so on entry plans you are hosting with WeWeb and depending on its uptime for a production application.
  • The learning curve is closer to a front-end framework than to a drag and drop builder; collections, bindings and state assume you understand how data flows through an interface, which defeats non-technical buyers.
  • Output is web only. There is no native mobile build, so anything that must appear in the App Store needs a wrapper or a different tool entirely.
  • It is a small European vendor competing against far larger platforms, so procurement teams that assess supplier viability, support depth and long-term roadmap will need convincing before signing.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

AppSheet: Can I build and test apps before paying for AppSheet?

Yes, AppSheet offers a free prototyping tier where you can test your apps with up to 10 users at no cost before deploying paid subscriptions.

Source
WeWeb: Do I need another product to use WeWeb?

Yes. It builds the front end only. You need a backend such as Supabase, an existing database or an API before the application does anything useful.

AppSheet: Is AppSheet included with Google Workspace subscriptions?

Yes, the Core plan ($10/user/month) is included with most paid Google Workspace plans, allowing you to build applications without additional licensing costs.

Source
WeWeb: Can I host the app myself?

On the higher tiers, yes. That is one of the main reasons agencies choose it, because the delivered application can run without the vendor in the path.

AppSheet: What data sources can AppSheet connect to?

AppSheet connects to spreadsheets, cloud storage, databases, REST APIs, and SaaS platforms like Salesforce, enabling seamless integration with your existing tech stack.

Source
WeWeb: Is it suitable for someone who cannot code?

Less so than most no-code builders. You do not have to write code, but you do have to think like a front-end developer about state, collections and bindings.
