A viable solution for well-established businesses
Overall Satisfaction with QuickBase
Our organization uses QuickBase to manage the data generated from daily business transactions. We utilize the graphing, reporting, and summary options to provide visual feedback on how this data is trending through our company. We have several applications built that track everything from doctor's appointments, employee information, assessment data, repair orders, and survey results.
Pros
- QuickBase makes navigation throughout the dashboard fairly easy to use and understand.
- The interface is clear and concise without unneeded fillers.
- There are options available to export data to other applications outside of QuickBase to increase usability.
Cons
- The applications need more guidance to set up initially. Unless you are extremely familiar with out it works, it takes time to set up an application for initial use.
- The reports and graphs set ups are also a little complicated to set up unless you know what you're doing. There are fields that require prior knowledge of how they function or what purpose they serve, as there are not helpful hints throughout the process. A wizard would be more beneficial for novice users to guide through the set up process.
- Graphing and reporting are also limited to some degree. There are different types of graphs and reports that can be generated, however, if data is exported to Excel or a similar application to manage data, it is easier to make more detailed graphs with the same data. Excel also offers more editing options like changing font types and sizes, colors, etc. There are none of these options available for graphs made within the QuickBase application.
