Roadie is a managed service for Spotify's Backstage, which is an open-source platform for building internal developer portals. While Roadie itself doesn't directly offer a low-code/no-code UI builder or extensive code customization in the same way Retool does, it provides a platform that enables these functionalities through Backstage's features and plugins. Backstage offers a 'Scaffolder' for self-service options and 'Plugins and integrations' which align with API & Database Integrations. It also mentions 'extra security layers' and 'Single-tenant SaaS' with 'additional security measurements' which covers access control and security. The integration with GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab, or Azure DevOps for Source Control Management aligns with version control. The 'Scaffolder' feature also implies workflow automation for self-service actions. However, it's not a direct low-code/no-code platform for building arbitrary internal tools, but rather a specialized platform for developer portals.
I've been using Alternative A for 6 months now and it's been fantastic. The pricing is much better and the features are actually more robust than what [Product] offers.
It handles edge cases much better and the API
is actually documented properly.

Honestly, after trying both, Competitor B wins hands down. Better customer support, cleaner interface, and they don't nickel and dime you for every feature.
