Overall Satisfaction with Quickbase

We use QuickBase in the following areas: 1. Non-conforming Material Management 2. Corrective Action Tracking 3. Customer Complaint Tracking 4. Quality Issues Tracking 5. Supplier Scorecard 6. Project Management 7. Change Management

Pros

  • User Landing Page and User Dashboards can be customized depending on who the user is. Only relevant information and pertinent reports are visible streamlining what the user sees . Since access to QB is roles based, role clarity becomes inherent in a QB system - QB actually forces roles clarity within the process.
  • It is very easy to develop a process workflow in QuickBase. The built in notifications and reminders are very powerful in maintaining and tracking progress across multiple interrelated systems involving different departments.
  • QB is very intuitive and easy to use. It also helps that you can access the database anywhere in the world via internet.

Cons

  • More chart type selection for reports - i.e. combination charts.
  • API calls can be cumbersome especially when you deal with process loops (forces you to go non-native).
  • Documentation & version control almost non-existent
  • Management of pipelines need some improvement to make pipelines easier to manage
  • Time savings especially converting a very manual excel based process to QuickBase
  • Ability to acquire data in areas where it is awkward to use laptop or cell phone.
  • Mobile enhancements also allowed data to be captured on time right at the production floor
