Overall Satisfaction with Quick Base
The system is currently being utilized by multiple departments within our organization. We use it as a customer master database along with a document and resource library. Each of our tasks and responsibilities are created and maintained within the Quickbase application.
Pros
- Management at the Task Level - We are able to assign and track status updates via Quickbase for a real-time implementation plan.
- Shared Resources - We store documents that are utilized amongst multiple departments in one library for ease of access.
- Communication - We are able to store communication information in the system which allows each involved team member to be kept in the loop throughout our process.
Cons
- Formulas in Quickbase are hard to create. If they could be more in line with something like Excel, that would be tremendously helpful.
- Report Formatting is not very user-friendly. We have been utilizing Exact Forms, but they are still limited.
- Interfacing with other systems has been improving, but not at the speed we hoped for. There is still a lot of manual work being done.
- Mobile Applications would be great as well. For now, we create shortcut forms and send out individual links, but an actual app would be amazing!
Prior to Quickbase, we utilized mostly internal tracking via spreadsheets and such. This is definitely a much better system as there is much less duplication in efforts or creation of tracking materials.
