Overall Satisfaction with QuickBase

I use QuickBase for a variety of data processing applications, mainly for managing projects. QuickBase helps to collaborate with multiple distributed teams working towards a common goal.
  • QuickBase acts as a single source of data for all stakeholders
  • Access control based on different roles makes it an excellent collaboration tool
  • Business rules can be embedded within QuickBase to manage workflow
  • Integration of JAVA Scripts helps to automate data creation, update, and data aggregation
  • QuickBase enables 'self service' for stake holders who needs visibility into live database for decision making
  • Ability to use formulas in exact forms
  • Have the ability to show email distribution list in notifications/subscriptions
  • Have the ability to define one-to-one relationship between tables in order to have the ability to transfer text fields from child table to the master table
Hosting a project database in QuickBase has helped us in building, deploying, customizing and maintaining project applications with minimal efforts and short lead time. As project requirements vary from project to project, QuickBase helps us to create multiple applications to suite various project scenarios.
Simple QuickBade applications can be created by anyone who can create a spreadsheet or other database. However, if you need to tap advanced features of QuickBase, some level of relational database knowledge would help.
  • Building and deploying business applications faster
  • Improving our ability to drive insights from our data
  • Improving collaboration across one or more teams
  • Building and deploying an application (or multiple applications) that meets our exact needs
Building multiple project applications on quick notice was critical and QuickBase helped us in achieving [that]. Also, the ability to link multiple applications helped us in having the ability to drive insights from data. Sharing applications with varied levels of access to team members, customers and partners helped in true collaboration in real time.
QuickBase is well suited for sharing a live database among team members, stakeholders, organizations, etc. We never have to worry about version control as everyone is working on the live database. QuickBase is well suited for hosting any database on clouds that requires customized view/edit access by various team members. You don't need an IT expert to create a database, customize, or maintain it. Handling file attachments is not that easy in QuickBase. A drag and drop feature from a windows folder to QuickBase forms is highly desirable.
