Overall Satisfaction with QuickBase
It is primarily used as a CRM tool for hosting lists of target physicians/pharmacies and calls on them. Other teams use our own software for similar things, but Quickbase handles the backend/database side of it.
Pros
- Ease of reporting
- Quick to deploy and make changes
- Great for handling advanced applications as well as simple ones
Cons
- Some functions for formulas do not work very well, such as detecting null values for any required fields
- The data import/export links are only on the home page of each table, when they should be available on every page under More
- Customizing the home page of a table should customize that report, instead of the default report for the table
The workflow of creating, editing, and reporting on the data felt much smoother with Quickbase.

- Reporting
- Creating and updating applications
- Adding new fields/datapoints
- Importing data could use some improvement with identifying the appropriate fields
- There aren't many options for reformatting dates (IE: showing a date as Feb 15 2017 isn't supported)
- Exporting data loses any customized header names from reports
- It is difficult to identify if a record is currently being created or edited
Yes, but I don't use it - It's not usable. It can't be customized in any way and bypasses any form rules. Our company advises all uses (which mostly use iPads) to never use the mobile interface, and use the full site version instead.
