Overall Satisfaction with Quickbase

I use Quickbase to track software application requirements and provide (along with several Teams) feedback on requirements, changes, and ultimate approval to allow development to take place and be used as a guide for testing, defect identification, etc.
  • Send out auto-email notifications
  • Allow for easily creating on the fly reports
  • Easy addition of records
  • Providing varying levels of access based on User/business need
  • The new interface makes filtering less efficient

Do you think Quickbase delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Quickbase's feature set?

Yes

Did Quickbase live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Quickbase go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Quickbase again?

Yes

We have achieved this to a certain extent, however our shifting business needs are leading us to use Microsoft applications much more since community based sites and file saving/sharing are much easier with the Microsoft ecosystem.
I've lately found Quickbase lagging in being able to easily build dashboards from the data versus Microsoft BI as an example. However, for smaller scale projects/items, I do still prefer Quickbase. It's more on the larger scale cross-team projects where there seems to be a gap forming.
  • Building and deploying business applications faster
  • Solving a specific business challenge
My organization has begun moving away from Quickbase to manage projects and is using different products (like Jira/Jira Align) to manage projects/programs, in particular ones using SAFe Agile.
I needed to add quick links to outside resources not housed within Quickbase. I was easily able to do this for all Users (varying views/levels of access).
In my former role, I used Quickbase to track testing efforts, assign out test runs, and it proved to be very helpful to have quick visibility to status of testing, along with ensuring all on my Team were aware of their testing assignments and/or able to pick up additional testing without duplicating work. It also allowed for attaching screenshots, tracking defect resolution, etc.
