Quickbase

I use Quickbase to track software application requirements and provide (along with several Teams) feedback on requirements, changes, and ultimate approval to allow development to take place and be used as a guide for testing, defect identification, etc.

Cooper Steel uses Quickbase in several different process areas. We have built a custom Project Management application related to the process of fabricating, managing, and erecting steel structures. We also use Quickbase for Asset Tracking, and Vendor Risk assessment and qualification.

Quickbase is used as an internal staffing application. We use it to manage internal and freelance staff, event assignments, event calendars, client contacts, and technical venue information. We are quickly adding additional uses throughout the company to help with overall project management from the RFP process to event completion.

Quick Base is used throughout our payroll division in North America. It's become a true cradle to grave application that allows us to manage our business while integrating with many platforms of our own. Its flexibility has made it an aggregator of data that allows us to get a consolidated view of our division.

We use Quickbase to run our entire business. We're a Quickbase partner and solution provider for Quickbase, so when customers need a solution on the platform, we build those solutions to spec from the ground up. What we build depends on the client's needs. They might need an inventory solution, a purchasing solution, a CRM, or an HR management solution, etc. But we drink our own Koolade, and use the same platform extensively in all areas of our business...from quoting, invoicing, time tracking and ticket management, HR/employee onboarding, quarterly reviews, vendor/partner management, marketing campaign management, and more. As a CRM tool, we use Quickbase to manage all of our clients, prospects, sales pipeline, and open opportunities for each client. We're able to track all the activities and conversations so that anyone from our team can pull up a client and know where things are at, status, next steps, etc. And, we've built out extensive reporting and KPI Dashboards so our leadership team has strategic visibility at a high level, and the ability to drill down into the details as needed. We couldn't run our business without Quickbase!

We use Quickbase in various ways to support tracking and reporting of information. Many processes that were manual or tracked in spreadsheets have been converted to Quickbase applications. The business areas include administrative, clinical, research, Human Resources, information services, interpreter services, nursing, facilities, project management, time reporting, communications, and more. The scope is different for each app. One of our primary applications is to track projects - active and pipeline - as well as other work for an overall IT portfolio. I use it to review status, track progress, and report overall statistics to leadership.

Uur manufacturing process is currently all on pen and paper, and we are using Quickbase to be able to collect the data from PIN into electronic data for data analysis. And then within the last year and a half, we have actually transferred half of our manufacturing paperwork into electronic data to actually send to our customer directly as well as be able to track the inventory of what's in our actual storage yard for shipment.

I use it every day. I'm in it, I'm programming it. There are, the good thing about Quickbase is it solves a lot of problems. It's very flexible. It's very adaptable. You literally have a live application and if a process changes, if a law changes, if your idea changes, it can be changed in a live application on the fly. It's one of those things where if you have a business or even just a team in that business that needs to be very flexible, needs to change a lot, Quickbase is really great.I've also used it as for prototyping for more legacy databases, which is always good because then you can work it out, work out the processes, work out the fields you need, work out the architecture and things like that. Of course, I also have done that and they've just ended up using QuickBase as their legacy database. There is that too.

The business problems are finances. We do report to a board, so we have to make sure everything is very meticulous. We also use it for our 911 operators in our district.So we wanna make sure the 911 call information. Correct. As we use it, as we put it in a Quickbase again, 911 is, it's when seconds count as our logo says. So it has to be correct and it has to be very meticulous and very, the information has to be in the now, so. I'm new to click base, but I find it very user friendly and I haven't built too many. That we've actually implemented, but it's very user friendly.

We use QuickBase to manage our portfolios, our intellectual property matters, our payrolls, and basically everything. It is our CRM. We have our payrolls that just automates itself. It gives us one platform to understand where our clients are in terms of intellectual property matters, and it just integrates everything for us and makes it super easy to manage.

We have several different Quickbase applications. Everything from our CRMs or project management applications to complex demo applications and prepopulated forms for clients to update. We also do all of our support ticketing through Quickbase with the help of our add-ons. When we use our own add-ons as well the native power of Quickbase, it helps bring dynamic information and, flexibility to the platform. So that's the general gist of our usage.

Within our organization, we use it as a CRM. We also use it for all of our project controls and project tracking time tracking, expense reporting, and then of course integrating that back into our accounting system.

We use it to interface with many other apps in our IT department and with all our differences. Specifically, all the data that runs through it. So it is kind to use it as a collection of data. We have all our store information, and employee information, and we use the, what I use is our automation Anywhere RPA software to manipulate and download/upload data to the Quickbase sites and downtown. It's mainly just to simplify, simplify, and automate the process to make it faster and easier for everyone. We're not spending time doing all the just data entry work.All this manual labor, it just shows up in the morning. When you come to work, you can start working right away.

So in my use case, I'm developing enterprise-level applications that I use across the company that gives users access to centralized data. For our organization, there are around 2000 business applications in Quickbase, out of which really 450 of them are in production, and actively used daily applications. The remaining are all tested in-depth, et cetera. That's what we have at Southwest Airlines.

I've been using Quickbase for about eight years now, and, uh, very few people at my company are certified in the software.So I am certified. So I've basically become like the Quickbase help desk type deal. So I get use cases from many departments, many different areas. anything from project management to, um, life cycle management of vendors to document reviews and approval processes. It's, it's pretty versatile.

The majority of the use cases we see are really a lot of the clients come in and they have.They have a lot of manual workflows where they're using different systems that may not talk to each other. They may use Excel spreadsheets. So they have a combination of tools that they're using. <br><br>And the common issue is we don't have connectivity in terms of our data, so we're doing multiple inputs.We have not a single source of data, so therefore we have misinformation out there. It's difficult to report and that sort of thing. <br><br>And so Quickbase for us and for our clients, it enables us to build a system to aggregate all their. Automate workflow, so they're not having to do a lot of manual labor to move data around.<br><br>And then really the key is for them to then have a central place for the source of truth where they can report from.

I am over warranty department, so I do a lot of after service. We use it as a ticketing system for customers and managing between customers and company and repair work.

Our company uses Quickbase to manage several internal departments. We track contracts between facilities and insurance companies, residents' authorizations, and facilities finances. As an inhouse developer, I maintain and improve the apps that these departments use and offer daily support. Quickbase allows me to create clean and comprehensive forms for users to store their information. I can automatically generate tasks for users based on status updates. I love the easy to use reporting system that allows me to run reports for end users or to create quick 'on the fly' reports for analyzing data. I can't imagine how we would ever manage without Quickbase pulling all our data together in one dynamic system.

Currently we're doing a startup contact center, so we are using it to process all of our intake. Not only calls, but emails portals and things like that. So it is our primary data capture of any communication that we have coming into the contact center for the company.

Secondly what we use it for is also communications between the multiple offices throughout the United States. We have close to 40 offices across the states, and we have multiple people that we need to get in contact for various reasons.So we use that as a internal database for ourselves to be able to facilitate that communication quickly.

We also expanded that to another team for the portals team, and they use that as a workflow process for multiple different things that they do as well.

It's used from a human resources aspect for internal, for our group, so that we have the ability to track the type of equipment that each of our people has, tardies - things like that. So we can keep track of that internally without having to go through the major company aspect of things. So going a little bit above and beyond the tools that have already been given to us through our company.

We use it basically through our whole process. Sales team uses it as a crm. We use it for project management. And our financial team uses it for forecasting and financial information.

Quick Base is currently being used in our company in the quotations department. We use it to organize jobs, and edit what is coming in.

Quickbase is at the center of our project management. Every project we do starts and ends with Quickbase. From financial planning, project tracking, and safety to project workflows, we utilize Quickbase across many elements of the organization. We tie (integrate) with others systems for financials, document management, and contracts. It may not be an all-in-one solution, but its flexibility and data management for reporting is extremely flexible and powerful.

We use Quickbase for a variety of items. One main piece on my team is to document accounting decisions for company projects. Our external auditors EY love this platform to document the decisions since they can see the full history of changes. We want to continue expanding our Quickbase to automate several accounting processes.

We use Quickbase as a ticketing system for our after service reports.
Our call center creates tickets to track the status of the customers repair service to their product.
We also use Quickbase to manage and distribute nationwide technicians out for repair services on the customers products.

Quickbase is used in various ways at SWA. From gathering changes for systems and/or applications, gathering stats on specific airline data, to mapping of data for various applications. I assist with putting governance around what is collected and maintained in QB.
