Zoho Creator plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | Free | 3 | Entry tier |
| Standard | $8/month | 3 | +$8/month, 3 more features |
| Professional | $20/month | 3 | +$12/month, 3 more features |
| Enterprise | $25/month | 3 | +$5/month, 2 more features |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

What the product covers
The full Zoho Creator feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.
Other
- Visual form and workflow builder
- Deluge scripting
- Native mobile apps
- Zoho ecosystem integration
- AI-assisted app building
- Multi-app portfolio dashboards
People bring Zoho Creator in for a small or mid-sized business already using zoho crm or zoho books wanting a low-code app that integrates natively at no extra connector cost, a cost-sensitive team wanting low-code capability at a fraction of outsystems or mendix per-user pricing, a company building a single departmental app on the standard tier without paying for unlimited-app capacity it does not need, an organisation that wants auto-generated native mobile apps from the same app definition without separate mobile development. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Zoho Creator are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in No-Code
Too few no-code tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zoho Creator (this page) | Free | Per user per month, billed annually | - | |
| OutSystems | On request | Application Object consumption plus internal and external user packs | - | vs Zoho Creator |
| Mendix | Free | Per application tier (One App vs Unlimited Apps), cloud infrastructure billed separately | - | vs Zoho Creator |
| Caspio | On request | Flat monthly fee by data record volume and DataPage count, unlimited users included | - | vs Zoho Creator |
| Appian | On request | Per user, per app, per month, escalating across Standard, Advanced and Premium tiers | - | vs Zoho Creator |
| Quickbase | On request | Per user per month, billed annually, with an enforced minimum seat count per tier | - | vs Zoho Creator |
| Thunkable | Free | Per month, tiered by AI token allowance and project count | - | vs Zoho Creator |
Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Zoho Creator badges page.
Before you pay for Zoho Creator
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 4 tiers between Free and $25/month, with the jump itemised above. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Zoho Creator runs on web, ios, android, and is published by Zoho Corporation of Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. The full record is on the Zoho Creator review, and the rest of the category is under best no-code tools.
