Overall Satisfaction with Quickbase
Bids are submitted from various clients for hundreds of sites. Instead of passing Excel sheets around, all the data is centralized. All departments involved can input their data. The Project Admin reviews & confirms all data & finally submits [it] back to the client to be awarded/contracted to fulfill the orders of the sites. By digitizing data, we have centralized the data for all departments making it easier to show analytics.
- [It] can be a quick setup but normally should be done as with any system to have discussions about the application requirements
- Great reporting
- Easy to setup notification to alert other users
- One developer can almost keep up with (2) full time web developers
- Pipeline enhances the process automation
- Code Pages add value when connecting to external sites (i.e., Google Maps) to retrieve distance, Lat & Long, and much more
- Better formulas
- Better form designs

Yes, this is a great product for meeting immediate needs as well as turn[ing] them into long-term processes.
- Microsoft Power Automate (formerly microsoft flow)
Quickbase is very versatile and unlimited for quickly meeting [the] needs of our company. Power Automate was very behind, but I am sure they will catch up exponentially.
- Building and deploying business applications faster
- Improving our ability to drive insights from our data
- Improving collaboration across one or more teams
- Solving a specific business challenge
- Building and deploying an application (or multiple applications) that meets our exact needs
We strive to make data entry in one place and then propagate the information to other areas of Quickbase, all the while adding more information as the data is "pushed" to other Quickbase applications.
It is best to have some amount of database experience, but [it] can be done without that knowledge. Setting up reports is something that all users should learn to use to be able to be independent in putting together their needed reports.
For the most part, updating Quickbase applications is a non-problem-causing issue. There are times that it requires much thought and incremental step updates to ensure that potential problems do not become kinetic problems.
