Quickbase

Our organization is using many different applications developed in QuickBase. My specific group is developing project management and scheduling tools to manage our capital projects. Our company as a whole is trying to consolidate spreadsheets, improve processes and improve communication across departments.

Everyone in our company uses Quick Base. Various departments use it for our own projects, and we all use it to keep up with each other. The development department uses it to keep track of what's going on with our software products, from changes that are being considered through execution and inclusion in a release build version. Sales and support use it to keep track of customers, and we all use it for general awareness of what's going on in different departments.

Quick Base was initially agreed upon to use by the quality assurance department of a company we are consultants for. Now that others have seen it, people in finance, supply chain, and engineering are starting to become involved; even some of their contract service providers use Quick Base to view certain information.

We introduced Quick Base (QB) in 2013 because we needed a centralized place to manage claims, customer surveys, analytics requests, and EPIC support requests. We weren’t integrating companies then and that wasn’t original interest in the product. We primarily purchased QB because it was a more cost-effective solution for customer surveys and additionally allowed us to centralize requests in the other two areas that were being done by email. In 2014, QB was very helpful in helping us with our first integration with a newly purchased company. It allowed us to share documents with those outside the company prior to the integration. But even at that point, we were using it in a very limited capacity as project management software.

Quickbase is being used in various ways across the company. It is most often used to streamline MS Access, spreadsheet or manual processes.

QuickBase is currently being used in two departments, for CRM purposes as well as tracking of projects and resources and their associated time and expenses.

Quick Base is helping us improve business processes, replace spreadsheets, track assets more completely, add workflows and communication in our IT and Shared Services departments as well as our business units. Quick Base is expanding at our company, as more and more users are in the apps, they have more ideas they would like to have built, this could be additional functionality in existing apps or new apps to replace and enhance manual processes or spreadsheets.

Growth is also being seen with existing apps by providing additional visibility into apps for more groups. This growth in Quick Base provides additional opportunities for our employees to grow and work on different tasks. We are currently working on implementing a more comprehensive Citizen Development program to get our business units more involved

It is currently used within our procurement department. It's mainly focused on tracking projects, milestones, savings etc. It streamlined the business process within each group and improved the tracking mechanism.

It’s used by the project management team. It helps them manage projects better and stay organised.

I have used QuickBase as a collaborative task tracking solution for teams for over a decade. It has been implemented for both individual teams and multiple teams that need to share information. Its ability for simple and fast customisation has allowed us to take a base solution and customise it to our unique needs.

Our organization uses QuickBase to manage the data generated from daily business transactions. We utilize the graphing, reporting, and summary options to provide visual feedback on how this data is trending through our company. We have several applications built that track everything from doctor's appointments, employee information, assessment data, repair orders, and survey results.

Our information technology staff uses Quickbase apps for their helpdesk ticketing, documentation management, task management, and project management. We developed a custom app to facilitate quality control for our four call centers.

Quickbase is used for ad-hoc in-house applications that need simple data shared in real-time with a group of geographically diverse employees.

Our entire organization uses QuickBase. Each department uses it for different needs. We use it as a repository for documents, as a change control application, as a place to document customer calls and complaints, and as a time tracking application. We use these applications to report out CMS data and well as receive notifications of due dates.

We are creating all in-house applications to manage projects, document control, contact management, etc.

I use QuickBase for a variety of data processing applications, mainly for managing projects. QuickBase helps to collaborate with multiple distributed teams working towards a common goal.

Quickbase is used as our main tool for all our clients' projects and internally for our own processes. Quickbase manages all our project schedules, key-date notifications and also serves as a repository for project documents, photos, etc. The different Quickbase applications we have created and shared with our clients has enabled our organization to collaborate more efficiently and streamline our processes. Our clients are able to log-in and obtain project updates or be notified of upcoming project activities. This automates many of our deliverables and keeps the client happy.

It is used mostly to keep track of projects that are going on in the company. That way people have a quick way of seeing what is going on, what stage the project is in, etc. It is also being used as a database for product information. We can get quick details about a product with little effort.

We use it across multiple sites because it's online and accessible for everyone. We can disseminate information to everyone simultaneously and perform some tasks in parallel. We mostly use it as a tracking tool for the status of our projects to see if we're ready to move into production.

QuickBase is being used by the operations department to coordinate, track and report on deployments. It provides the necessary tool to be able to track all installs/events and locations in one place. QuickBase also provides the means to deliver reporting on a schedule or as needed basis. The reporting is extremely flexible and allows the user to choose and drill down as much or as little as required to provide the necessary overviews. The graphs are very useful.

Our Learning and Development department uses Quickbase, specifically an application called Train-Pro Central, to track and manage training projects. This product allows us to track time spend on each project, report out on project statuses, and capture metrics. We also use this product the track and manage our Education Assistance program.

We use Quickbase to capture and report on our sales pipeline/sales opportunities across multiple businesses in Europe. Quickbase is a good platform as it is simple and intuitive to use, and easy to customise. Users are predominantly from my sales and business development teams. In addition, we capture leads from marketing activities and initiatives. We use Oracle as our ERP - Quickbase takes care of the 'lead to opportunity' piece.

We are currently using Quickbase as a lightweight student information system for one business division, a student attendance tracker for another, and a contract management tool for another. It is typically used by a single business division, but multiple departments use and access it (i.e. corporate finance, IT, etc.). It basically gives us a tool for field operators to enter data centrally that can be later used for billing, reporting, etc.

We use it to generate quote numbers and input quotes for services into the DB and then move the data onward once the quote has been accepted/approved. [It] Allows for forecasting of sales quotes and project updates.
