Super functional, easy to use, very concise infromation.
There was not much that I did not like about Quickbase. Unfortunately, we moved to Oracle Netsuite and we no longer use Quickbase.....but I really miss it.
Stock list, inventory, CRM system, customer and vendor list, etc.
QuickBase has been instrumental for our team in maintaining all of our legal entity compliance.
It does require some knowledge of relational database logic.
Maintaining a lot of information for legal entities, in one place.
Easy to learn and use and can be applied to most any facet of the business.
I cannot think of anything at this time.
Tracker for incidents, claims, and legal cases and accounts receivables.
Easy and convenient interface for end user.
Learning curve to understand logic behind programing is difficult.
Data tracking and reporting
I love that Quick Base is fully customizable for any business application that I need it for. I was introduced to the program but a colleague in a different department to use to replace our database of Alumni in Microsoft Access. Once I saw everything it could after attending Empower 2018, I was hooked and began brainstorming about other business projects that it can help with. I wear many hats in my department and I have been able to streamline my many different responsibilities and make my job a lot less stressful and less paperwork. I was that I had heard about Quick Base sooner.
Very useful for the average user but to really get into the full power of QuickBase, you really need to practice and train a lot.
Quick Base streamlines so much. I have solved reporting for Research poster requests, Image Releases for photography and videography, recruitment information requests and I am still working on many others.
We take full advantage of the capability to add new sheets and change them as our department grows. The ability to pull all kinds of reports from our data has been a game changer.
I do love how intuitive it is to be able to make changes, especially as someone with no coding experience, but there are some parts that are difficult to navigate
It gives our team one location where all our information is gathered for easy reference. A project manager has to be out for an extended period; we can have another PM or the manager step in and have all project information on hand. It creates consistency between all project reports and frees up our PM's time to work on other items instead of constantly trying to remember if they have done everything needed for a project; if the forms have been completed, they're done!
No issues, and it is very convenient to use.
I can not think of anything at this time.
It is helping us maintain our gas purchases and maintenance of our company vehicles as well as our employee's attendance and customer information.
we are using Quickbase for many years. It was very user-friendly and had excellent performance. The Quickbase team was improving the tools and dashboard facility day to day. I appreciate your support.
The QuickBase was billing per user base data and may affect large organizations to maintain bulk users data on the cloud. Apart from that everything is good and excellent.
I have an issue with SSO integration and user access management using SSO. The Quickbase is very proactive and provides step-by-step documentation to configure it. I appreciate the prompt response from the support team.
Ease of use. Great tool for creating solutions.
Change to features I've used for years. It takes a little getting used to them.
Work log applications and MS Excel use of forms.
I really love using QuickBase for our company's needs. It is pretty easy to use, the setup is intuitive once you get used to it and I love the different reporting options there are.
I struggle linking pages together for certain fields; the base setup for new pages and things definitely takes some getting used to for me.
QuickBase solves our issue of holding contract information as well as our company asset information. It helps me track the progress of things as they go through the various stages as well.
We can make quickbase into anything we want it to be. The customization is second to none.
Form and report layouts could be better. Customizing forms is limited to 1 column layout. You can "float" fields so they create multiple columns, but you cannot group fields together in different columns. Not a huge deal, but could be better.
Quickbase allows us to create apps specific to our business. Many out-of-the-box solutions are not designed with our particular data and workflows in mind. Using quickbase has improved our productivity and visibility.
Quickbase is easy to use and to set up. The customer service team is always responsive in a timely manner.
I have not yet found something that we dislike when using this product.
Quickbase allows our company to track our client portfolios and take notes on client interaction.
User interface is simple and easy to navigate.
I wouldn't really say there's anything I don't like about it.
Helping the flow of information in our office.
As a beginner app developer, I have found it relatively intuitive and have never felt restricted with which functionalities I wanted to add to the database. I especially find useful the ability to generate different report views for different users. I also enjoy the helpful material made available to the quickbase community
Sequential numbering is really often used but has to be coded in different ways to produce the format desired. You should be able to set it up more easily and not need to have coding capabilities to do this simple task
Simplifies capital project management.
Love the Reporting capabilities Getting to use Pipelines has changed our world Love the flexibility with the Customization we can do on the fly
Having to use forums for answers rather than using a Handbook
We have true data to enable budget preparation. We also use it for the tracking of our daily/weekly/monthly events (programs)
I love how user-friendly QuickBase is for new users to learn, and for respondents to use! It's so easy to customize as well. The best feature is linking tables to each other.
The back end of Quickbase has a lot of point-and-click, so things like duplicating fields can take a very long time, because editing has to be done one at a time.
We store and track research information. We are able to created nested tables to track recruitment, survey response rates, and notes on participants much more easily than Excel.
The ability to create our own customized CRM was amazing
Pipelines. They were an after thought solution, so the connecting fields had to be changed. I am always running into issues.
We primarily use it as a CRM solution enabling all operational staff to have the information they need to service our clients.
Our sales data comes from several different sources in several different formats, Quickbase helped us simplify our process saving us several hours of manual data parsing each month, helping us become more in several other aspects of our business with that time saved. The Quickbase team is helpful and respondent when we need them.
Downsides are few and Quickbase is constantly working on improving their platform as needed. Some of the pipeline structure can be complicated depending on your company needs, but like I said, they have been constantly improving since we've started using the platform
Quickbase helps us manage our sales data by combining everything into similar parameters so we can push that data directly into our CRM
ecently had the pleasure of using QuickBase for our company's inventory management needs, and I must say that it exceeded all expectations. QuickBase is an outstanding inventory service that provides exceptional efficiency, precision, and a seamless user experience.
There aren't many downsides to this application, but I think it could be even more refined and fine-tuned to specific user needs.
From the moment we started using QuickBase, it was evident that this platform was designed with the needs of businesses in mind. The interface is intuitive, clean, and user-friendly, making it incredibly easy to navigate and manage our inventory effectively. The customizable dashboard allowed us to tailor the platform to our specific requirements, providing quick access to critical information.
Quickbase is simple to use for setting up databases with no previous experience.
Some aspects can be a little intimidating.
We are consultants specializing in QB.
Ease of use and it's intuitive to use. I can export the data to excel.
The UI is somewhat busy and clunky. The UXP could be improved.
Provides a platform for our source of truth. The platform also allows multiple users to collaborate.
QB is an excellent platform for our business. We can customize the platform exactly how we need it to work. If we have any issues, QB always is there to help us through the process and find solutions.
QB can be difficult for an admin that doesn't have specific coding skills. Building the platform takes a lot of time and effort. Also, when changes are made and saved, there's no way to get that information back, so you must be careful who you give editable access.
Quick Base helps us to manage our store locations and progress within those sites. We track dates, closures, construction completion, owners, franchisees, and corporate sites.
It's so friendly and so easy and pleasing to use. This app serves as a guide and reminder to us every time we take our breaks, and we need to clock in and out. We
There's no problem, and the website was so friendly. I will recommend this. There's just some time when the app lags and you can't log out on time. But still it's too easy to use.
There is no problem with the app, but sometimes it just so lags if there are too many employees using the website but so far, so good. Needs a slight improvement.
Very convenient to use and easy to navigate.
Some features are slow-moving when using
Attendance Monitoring and Filing Leaves properly.
What I like about Quickbase is that it is easy to navigate, and the efficiency and accuracy of the logs are in point. You can also do coaching, record your End of the Day, etc.
What I dislike the most about Quickbase is that its traffic site is too low when loading when many people are using the tool to clock in, even when clocking out.
The problem with Quickbase is that the traffic site is too slow when too many employees here in our company are using it to clock in and out. We usually wait over 10 minutes to clock in, especially when clocking out completely. It's not benefitting me as a user because I still need to wait and refresh the website several times, so I can clock out properly.
Quickbase has allowed our company to consolidate fragmented software into one platform to help our business run more effectively and efficiently.
I wish Quickbase had the option for multiple file uploads in a single field. Third-party companies offer paid services to add it to your account, but no integrated features are available.
Project Management and Project Collaboration concerns that we've had from other software platforms have been addressed with Quickbase. The ability to customize almost everything allows our company to make changes on the fly quickly. This has allowed us to be more efficient in every aspect of our business.
Designing workflows is very easy and there are a multitude of tools available for a non-tech person to use. Forms are easy to use and allow users to implement business logic to make form elements contextual, like hiding or showing relevant data by user role, or showing followup questions based on responses to prior questions. Email notifications, reminders and subscription reports keep everyone in the loop and prompt action. Reports are easy to configure, including creating report-specific fields and formulas. For users that are a little more comfortable with low code functions, formulas and pipelines can transform data and automate processes easily. Creating new records, editing existing data, and connecting to third party apps is quick and there are many tutorials provided by Quickbase as well as a very active and helpful community of users that share solutuions and answer questions. Quickbase also provides a robust API that allows customized connections with third party apps and additional powerful automation capabilities. For users with some coding knowledge, code pages can be called to execute scripts and extend functionality even further.
Calendar functionality is basic and could be improved; there are timeline reports and Quickbase offers a Gantt plug-in, but its clunky and exporting Gantt charts is only available as csv which limits its usefulness overall. Map report functionality is very limited.
In our government business we use Quickbase to create workflows, automations and integrations that simplify the process of managing federal and state-funded projects. We ensure compliance with regulations by, for instance, importing third party data sets to check applicant income against annual limits and automatically scheduling required annual or quarterly reports and inspections. We use Quickbase in our non-government activities to evaluate all aspects of our business , either by analyzing data from internal workflows or by importing data from systems that are used by some departments and then analyzing it. This includes things like turn times and aging for major tasks, summarizing sources of revenue by client, geographic location and service type, and using existing data to project revenue and workloads.
User friendly, and all the necessary information can be easily found, especially when it comes to attendance needed.
The only thing that I disliked was every time I am going to click the end shift of daily attendance; it always took time.
Manage to handle a large volume of users. Because every time that I click the end shift, it always takes time.
Quickbase is an easy software tool that will guide you with problem-solving methods that can be connected to all your business solutions in real time.
Quickbase will be easier if you use specific keywords to find your solution.
I can put all my data in one place, work together in one centralized area and solve my issues.
