Quickbase offers three key plans, with feature distinction, simple and consistent entitlements, and a flexible licensing model, giving users the option of either user based or usage based licensing across all 3 plans.
We enjoyed the cloud-based set up of Quick Base. Microsoft Access also required more detailed database knowledge. Microsoft Project required expensive user licensing. We also need a program that would run it easily on Apple iPads.
Quick Base is 1000 times more intuitive and does a lot of the work for you. Microsoft Access is very much for users that actually do know how to code-if you ask me.
It's a tie. Quick Base is more stable and easy to access (ironic since Microsoft Access has the word access in the name) since it's a hosted online, but the ability to integrate (especially with Microsoft products) and customize forms and reports makes development, as it …
Before using quickbase we primarily used Microsoft Access databases for our quick turn around projects, and QuickBase's secure web based platform resolved a lot of our access on our corporate server issues.
Microsoft Access was one of the DB programs that I have used in a job previous to my current one. I found it to have many more features than Quickbase does but it was a lot harder to set up and maintain. Also, it was harder to share among multiple teams. I basically feel that …
Prior to Quickbase, we used Microsoft Access. The limitations were that it was not available on the cloud and coworkers were getting locked out of the database. You could not make development changes until everyone was out of the database.
If you don't know any programming languages, it's no problem to get started with Quick Base. On-line guides and prompts, plenty of examples and help are always available. There are template sample databases available for modification, and these provide a great opportunity to …
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 …
QuickBase is adaptable, easy to use and can scale quickly. With either option for a simple drag and drop solution or a more complex code written for a specific application, QuickBase is clearly the winner here.

Chose Quickbase
Quick Base was MUCH more flexible and utilitarian. It did not restrict us, or make us conform our processes to their software, as many other solutions do. It has back ups, security, and support so that we are not alone. The community forums are great too. Lots of learning …
Quickbase I believe ranks first amongst its competitors because of its ease of use and flexibility. It is very simple and quick to modify data entry, formulas and almost all changes within the application. We selected Quickbase because it is the best mix between platform …
