Overall Satisfaction with Quick Base

Quick Base is being used by our customers in order for them to share biology sample data with our company in a live manner.

Pros

  • Live updates - when our customers update the data, our company can see it right away.
  • Downloadable reports.
  • Easy access anywhere with a Wifi connection - just needs the URL.
  • Very customizable to the fields you need.

Cons

  • Not all of our customers have added a date sorting area so this may be unknown to them on how to use.
  • Visibility 'look' - lots of scrolling involved in the spreadsheet-like data.
  • Not intuitive to go to reports and charts in each tab to see pre-made reports.
The only other product I have used like Quick Base would be Excel with the ability to share spreadsheets through an application like DropBox or OneDrive. Quick Base is better suited for this function as it only requires an internet connection, meaning information can be pulled up on smartphones or tablets, not just computers with Microsoft Suite. There are also fewer steps involved since once you save the Quick Base link and passwords, you simply have to access the URL and you are immediately in the application.
Quick Base is great for live data reporting for multiple stakeholders to access. It is great for highly detailed data and for viewing that data in various formats. It is not as good for the presentation of the data. The charts and downloadable reports would need to be adjusted for live presentation to those not familiar with the data.
