Quickbase does allow you to search an replace words for quick updates across all applications. However, when updating one form, it does not give you the option to update across the application. Each individual form requires an update.

I come from an MIS background. I've built databases on several platforms during my career. So for me, it's a little bit easier. But a normal user can get into Quickbase and build basic applications without a highly technical background. Application templates can help folks get started, and it's a …

Usage for Project Management

Citizen Developers Using Quickbase

We aren’t a good use case for citizen developers. Due to the privacy of our data (healthcare and personnel), we’re very careful about who develops Quickbase applications.

Usage for Project Management

While we have a large portfolio of projects, the management of them within Quickbase isn't necessarily complex. No matter what size project, we're able to conveniently collect statistical information like sponsor, strategic alignment, dates, etc., as well as project goals, decisions, risks, etc.

Ease of Updating Applications

Some updates are easier than others. We have many simple applications where updates are quick and easy. Larger, more complex projects with custom code are more challenging to update, especially when the base Quickbase product changes / is updated. Recommend considering a third-party partner to …

Citizen Developers Using Quickbase

I think that if you come into it and someone else, perhaps at your agency or your company is already already working with it, that there wouldn't be a problem. It's just when you come into a new position and there's nobody that knows anything about it and you're like, what am I …

Ease of Building Custom Applications

Citizen Developers Using Quickbase

I did not come from a computer science background, so to be able to use this platform and grow it myself, making multiple tables, fields, and relationships, with very little guidance from a true developer is super powerful. With Quickbase, you don't need to have that kind of background, it's easy …

Usage for Project Management

We manage hundreds of customers who all have their own Quickbase realms. Each customers realm is different, and that's what's really beautiful about, no two are exactly alike. So to be able to build these complex solutions with automated workflows within them is something that we've worked really …

Ease of Updating Applications

That's actually something that I believe is on the dangerous side of low-code. I think that it's hard to track changes if you don't comment out what you have written or changed. A lot of things interact within Quickbase, you could have various tables that are connected and fields that reference …

Ease of Building Custom Applications

So we've won several pro projects or bids competing against your more off-the-shelf or your larger ecosystem products. And Quickbase tends to be at minimum a third in speed as far as how much faster you can develop and it's also much faster in testing. So as customers one application looks very …

Ease of Updating Applications

Probably just to start off probably like maybe four or five. You do have to do a little bit of knowledge and they have Quickbase University so you can do a little bit of training there. But once you get the hang of it, it is really exciting. You really want to just go full forward on it because …

Usage for Project Management

Again, more back to what I do as our RPA developer. You can take a lot of data that are different from different teams and you can use the automation to pull it all together and then manipulate it, clean it up, and then push it back out so it's all uniform for everyone else. It gets really …

Ease of Updating Applications

There was one where, another coworker built it, but I had to go in and make a change to it, so I had to get with them once so they could explain it to me. It's not that hard. As long as there's kind of similarities between all the apps, you have base guardrails and stuff like that, but it's not …

Ease of Building Custom Applications

I really don't see a difficulty. I am a non-technical person and I do it every day.

Usage for Project Management

I would actually use it for project management on timing and permitting construction facilities. Basic work that has to be done when it comes to a project start to finish.

Ease of Building Custom Applications

For custom applications starting from scratch, it's actually easier. Like I was saying before, it's really easy to prototype something from scratch and quickly rather than other platforms that I've compared. Even power apps, it I use both. So it's easier to just prototype …

Citizen Developers Using Quickbase

It's pretty easy to catch on. Considering five years plus ago, I had no idea what Quickbase was. And I caught onto Quickbase in a matter of a couple of months.

Ease of Updating Applications

There's always a trade-off. It's just the if, and it depends on the original developer. If the original developer followed all guidelines, commented out a lot of stuff, commented out fields, and created comments in the formula columns, it becomes easy to manage. So it depends. That's…

Ease of Building Custom Applications

I think collaboration is great. So one thing for us is we're able to build application solutions iteratively and allow our customers to see and provide feedback on certain phases of delivery as opposed to waiting until the end, where we may be required to reverse engineer or re-engineer major …

I would say yes. Most of it is studying the, you have to start by, I guess you could say getting an understanding Quickbase of that way you can build within the application. The way that we've established success is anytime we're building an app for a specific use case, we start by …

Depends on how dumb they are. That's a range of outcomes question. Like I have customers who are very technically savvy and it's very easy to coach them. And then I have customers I've been working on for 18 months and it's painful.

Ease of Updating Applications

Yeah with my company, it's pretty normal to have the original designer resign, retire, go somewhere else, and all of a sudden you inherit an application that you didn't build.I actually mean you didn't. You essentially have to study it and in some cases perfect. The challenges that …

Ease of Building Custom Applications

Citizen Developers Using Quickbase

So I would say I'm a very non-technical person and it is a little difficult for me. But I do find when I go to build a application, there's a lot of templates. And a lot of ones people already use and that's what I use. It helps me a lot.

Usage for Project Management

I would like to try as I'm not doing this now. I would like to get into using it for project management though.

Ease of Updating Applications

Yeah, so that's actually exactly what I do. Someone had developed it and then I go in and manage it, change it, that kind of thing. I added a bunch of statistical aspects to it so that I can monitor the teamwork as well. So I've been editing it a little bit.

Ease of Building Custom Applications

Building and maintaining Quickbase apps really is a breeze. Making updates are generally quick and easy. I find that if you want to pull off a complicated process, there are times when Quickbase functionality is a bit limited. Sometimes a support tech will have a creative workaround. You can …

When running a large report I find it cumbersome to move from page to page as the paging is only at the bottom of the screen. Please move the choice also to the top of the report.

Difficult Tasks

Setting up table-to-table relationships - even if you understand this, learning another system's terminology is challenging
Seeing how your tables are connected - I really think there should be a better way to see what fields are available and how they are related.
Knowing where to go for help. There are almost too many options: standard help, user community, knowledge base, feedback, personal support rep. . .
