ClickUp vs Quickbase

I honestly can't think of any scenario when ClickUp is not well suited. This is a wonderful tool for someone with ADD IF you get in the habit of actually scheduling tasks and working off of the tasks you have scheduled. Procrastination is an ADD rabbit hole if you let it - ClickUp solves so many issues by helping my ADD mind organize and forget about tasks until I NEED to think about them. My stress levels are lower because of ClickUp... seriously!

I think it's less appropriate whenever somebody is not in Quickbase, it makes things a little bit more difficult. You can get around it depending on what it is that you're trying to do for them. But when you have like our group who uses Quickbase on a daily basis to be able to get that kind of view Versus the other side on what you're doing.It's just a little bit more difficult. It's always best to have everybody that you want in there. And so that's the downside is getting is the outsiders in.

• Manage our team's time
• Notify the team of important task due dates
• Communicate through documents and whiteboards ideas and critical information
• Be our internal database of employees, clients, tasks and resources
• Keeps the team focused on the most important tasks needed
• Keeps the teams and resources accountable

• Create reports on the fly to know what's happening in the company.
• Build dashboards for users in different roles so they can focus on their specific tasks.
• Mobile apps let people use Quick Base anywhere they have Internet access.
• Automatically send notifications based on criteria.
• Powerful form design.

• We need more functionalities in the formula area. The ability to sum formulas would be great.
• Hoping to be able to share dashboards as a public view.
• The ability to change the sequence of automations and clone or duplicate or share.
• Be able to sell templates as consultants and maintain privacy so users cannot share to the whole world.

• Pipelines is particularly hard for me to use
• Would like to be able to automate email notifications for non-users (customers)
• Make it easier to understand the backend information for non-tech savvy people (i cant figure out how to set up pipelines or automations)

We're very pleased with how the system works in general. For over a year we've barely ever had any problems with ClickUp and there might have only been one or two times when it wasn't operational for us due to a global emergency. Moreover, when we had a problem once with renewing our licenses we've been contacted directly by our account manager and taken care of in a very professional way (with a due refund as well). The exceptional customer service makes us firmly believe that ClickUp is just the right tool for us.

With Salesforce being such a presence in business operations, we've had to "fend off" being asked to replace our QB apps with in-house/out of the box apps from Salesforce. With the cost of Quick Base and having to justify keeping it instead of Salesforce, it's been a challenge we've been fighting.

It's pretty easy to figure out without having to invest a bunch of time researching how to use it. The additional different views and themes can really help you personalize how you like to see information, both physically and aesthetically.

Quick Base has done everything we have asked it to do and then some. Our original goal was to have one system for CRM that encompassed both the sales process and the customer management. We have gone w-a-y beyond that with analytics, project management, system bug logging, and historical effort reporting.

Having used ClickUp for less than a year in my current organization, there have been only a couple of times when errors occurred and we've been unable to access our projects. However these have only been very brief, and did not negatively impact us. I recall these times only lasted for no more than an hour or so

Once we did get Quick Base configured and customized it was reliably available when we needed it. We may have had one or two occasions when the product was inaccessible but those were few. The greatest challenge with its availability was its difficulty with integrating with our systems.

I understand that it's a beast and does a lot of things, which is probably why it's laggy. But I do find it takes longer than I'd like to load, and if I am sending a complex document to a client or team member they aren't quite sure if they're getting the right thing at first. This is actually a pretty significant problem - my biggest beef with ClickUp.

Some of our tables that hold over a million records are starting to perform poorly, with some summaries taking over 20 seconds to load. This may be an indication that it is best to archive old data when reaching large volumes like this.

I started using ClickUp when it was what most would consider a baby company. There were the occasional bugs that made working in ClickUp a little bit of a headache, but the support feature allowed me to chat with a real persona and communicate my issues. I would always get prompt support and someone willing to really help me, not just point me to FAQ pages. Not feeling like a number really makes a difference.

The help and documentation are top notch and available 24/7. The community also provides an additional layer of assistance and creativity in problem solving. For bugs and support the QuickBase team themselves are second to none. Immediate response with a case number and personalized support. They do not quit until they've solved your issue - even if your issue is that you're confused about how something works and misinterpreted or couldn't find the documentation. They'll helpfully and knowledgeably walk you through any problem from the syntax of a difficult formula to enterprise level governance and data management issues.

It is very easy to get training from their University portal and still if we don't know their, then we can ask their support too.

There are multiple guides on literally all of the functions you can find within the system, therefore it's easy to learn anything you'd really like to use, starting from project and people management, down to Gantts, mind maps, time tracking, inviting Clients as guests to work with you on the projects and so much more.

Quick Base already is having a separate portal of providing training to customers and it is very easy to use and updates as per the new features added in to the application

Using ClickUp is fairly easy. There are multiple guides on how to use all of the functions in the system. An organization wanting to start working with ClickUp should simply try it out and see how it would like to adapt its workflow to the possibilities the system gives the users.

I was not directly involved with the initial account implementation, only a bystander. For the app I directly implemented for my department only, I wish I had know to create an app diagram first. I don't remember if that was suggested. I think that would be a great help tip tool when a new app is created, to have a page with a check list of what is needed or how to get started. If you are a regular app builder, then you can bypass it or have the ability to turn it off in the app settings.

I prefer ClickUp because it works the way it is supposed to. Other productivity apps we have tried will introduce and promote a feature that is typically very broken. We ended up spending more time on chat with customer support than working. I think we have maybe contacted ClickUp's customer support a handful of times.

I have personally used Quickbase and Salesforce and am so much more impressed by Quickbase. Salesforce puts so little power in your hands, for any change you have to ask their developers and it comes with a big price tag and time lag. Quickbase is easy and nimble and you can make updates yourself

I did not.

As long as organizations are thoughtful when setting up their workspace, I believe that ClickUp is very scalable. For example, we have divided our spaces into functional areas, and further organized projects into a folder system within spaces. By being thoughtful in the early stages of set up, I believe we are avoiding a disorganized situation down the line where projects lack any clear structured hierarchy.

It has evolved really well with our company, but there is a hard limit to the table size that has begun to affect us and not let us grow. The table size limit is set at 500 MB and we have had to jump through quite a few hoops to be able to get by.

• Increased collaboration communication - staff is able to comment and communicate back and forth on a specific task INSIDE that task to track all the information effectively.
• More accurate reports on what is or is not still in progress.
• Better staff allocation in an effort to reduce overallocation and burnout.

• Improved Customer Satisfaction by reducing time to market that too with a product with a great user experience.
• Huge Cost Saving by FTEs reduction and Improved productivity
• Added efficiencies
• The client asking for QuickBase but having a huge user base, due to licensing cost we have to offer another alternative solution.
