Overall Satisfaction with Quickbase

So, we have about 10 consultants that work on our customers and projects and they log their time. They log the projects and the tasks that they do for these customers and they log their time and the description of the work that they do. We use that to manage the projects and it ultimately translates into our billing.
  • It's been incredibly useful for our task management system.
  • We keep track of our projects, keep track of loss, which is invaluable. I couldn't do without it, so it's critical for us.
  • If I can use it for financial reports so that I can have columns by year, by month on the same report and maybe I can do that. I just don't know how to do it yet. Cause I'm, I'm fairly new so that's okay.
  • It definitely helped me to scale by adding more consultants. It's easy enough for me to add a consultant. I just give them the tools and I'm giving away some of my secret company tools, but it's okay. It's easy enough to add consultants because if I put them on our task management, project management system, I can engage new consultants very, very easily, and that's how we can scale our business.
Well, it definitely helps me to understand the billings for our customers, the projects that we are working on, and collaborate with my team. They have their own dashboard so they know what they're doing for the customers. They can manage projects as well. They can see projects coming in due time or projects that are still pending. I see the overall picture, the consultants can see how they're performing, what projects are lagging, and they can measure their performance over time.
I'm looking at bringing in some of the newer features, so I'm working on it.
When you're introducing data from different sources and when you have multiple tables that you want to relate data from different areas, that becomes very complicated. And it can affect performance. Quickbase's database is very good because they seem to do that really well and it performs really well.
Recently I started looking at other no-code systems. I looked at Creation, I looked at Mendix, Google apps, and then I thought, well, I gotta look at Quickbase because I'm using it, but my memory of Quickbase was just that I hadn't looked at the new features. I just remember it from like 10 years ago when we inherited it from Intuit. But I'm learning now that there are some pretty awesome features. So I'm more excited about it.

Do you think Quickbase delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Quickbase's feature set?

Yes

Did Quickbase live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Quickbase go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Quickbase again?

Yes

Definitely. I mean, before I had Quickbase, recording time was quite a challenge and then we would have to get that time into our accounting software. I would have to review it. I would spend at least a day or two on our billing. So now every time someone enters time, I get a popup so I can review it and then before we import it, I do review it all the time again. And so what used to take us two days probably takes me half a day.
