Overall Satisfaction with QuickBase

Our entire organization uses QuickBase. Each department uses it for different needs. We use it as a repository for documents, as a change control application, as a place to document customer calls and complaints, and as a time tracking application. We use these applications to report out CMS data and well as receive notifications of due dates.
  • Very user-friendly. For building and end user use.
  • Tech assistance is invaluable. Response time is quick.
  • Reports are easily created and manipulated.
  • Formulas can be difficult to create.
  • Ability to retrieve deleted data is cumbersome.
This application has been very valuable to our organization in many ways. It keeps track of things we are recording, it works as a change control system, a repository, a notification system. It keeps a long memory of entries.
I created 3 QuickBase applications with no previous knowledge of the platform. The technical aspects are very user-friendly and easy to learn. I required no assistance from IT. The sample applications are great teaching tools.
  • Building and deploying business applications faster
  • Improving our ability to drive insights from our data
  • Improving collaboration across one or more teams
  • Solving a specific business challenge
  • Building and deploying an application (or multiple applications) that meets our exact needs
We have been able to achieve each of the goals. We have applications that all departments use that allow for interdepartmental communications. Some applications track complaints and notify the next department when its their turn to work on them. The reports are easily gathered and exported.
Making changes to the applications is easy. Sometimes you will receive a message that the change will impact your data, that is very useful. Rearranging the fields in the form and creating sections is a very good way to organize the application.
We created an application to track time spent on daily tasks. Very easy to create and reports were easy as well.
We have some applications that are very complicated to edit or manipulate, based on the creator who no longer is with us. It is very difficult to understand what she did, so its hard to know what can be changed without affecting the entire application.
