Overall Satisfaction with Quickbase

QuickBase is used in several departments. It allowed us to create a unique and efficient way to organize our work and projects. It allowed for a custom-tailored development without needing to involve IT, which was faster and cheaper to the departments.

Pros

  • Data Input
  • Filtering Information
  • Organizing workflow

Cons

  • Types of reports
  • Types of output material
  • Cost per user per month

Do you think Quickbase delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Quickbase's feature set?

Yes

Did Quickbase live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Quickbase go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Quickbase again?

Yes

I've used Salesforce and Sharepoint in the past. Both require IT involvement and development resulting in more hassle and slow deployments. QuickBase allowed me to develop what I want when I want.
Quick Base is well suited to project management, high-volume data retention, and flexibility in builds. It still has some arbitrary limitations on filtering that limit is ability to be useful in some instances.

Quickbase Feature Ratings

Integrations and Governance

  • Powerbi
  • Google docs
  • Sharepoint
Not all integrations were successful, though hard to determine if this was more a failure on enterprise structure over programming. Unfortunately corporate controlled data harder to integrate into the system

  • Kpi tracking
  • Workload management

Evaluating Quickbase and Competitors

  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
Product usability. There were no off the shelf programs that could deliver what quickbase can for the price. The development was done by the people using the software the most making it easier and more aligned with their needs.
Wouldn’t. We found it to be a platform that could do everything we needed in one capacity or another.

Quickbase Support

They are responsive and willing to help. Generally prompt in addressing the issues or helping to come up with solutions or workarounds to problems when needed
ProsCons
Quick Resolution
Good followup
Knowledgeable team
Problems get solved
Immediate help available
Support understands my problem
Support cares about my success
Quick Initial Response
None
Not purchased. Didn’t know it was available
Had an issue with report linking that even support couldn’t figure out. They took the time to redo the part of the linking that was causing problems and have not had an issue since.

Using Quickbase

For the end users I think it’s extremely usable. From a programming side it is relatively straight forward and easy to pick up. Some of the more recent updates have made it less usable as it seems to be turning into a watered down version of excel.
ProsCons
Like to use
Relatively simple
Easy to use
Technical support not required
Feel confident using
None
  • App creation
  • Reports
  • New report view and filters
  • Kanban limitations
Yes, but I don't use it
