Find out in this report how the two Rapid Application Development Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."When compared with Microsoft Power Automate, it is a bit more mature, and we're able to build things pretty rapidly."
"The most valuable feature is automized processes."
"It’s a stable product."
"I like how fast I can develop an application and put it in production with PowerApps. I think the integration is also excellent. The platforms is growing, so they are constantly adding more connectors on all these things."
"It offers integration with several Microsoft products, including SharePoint and Outlook, in my opinion, is a huge plus."
"The solution is very straightforward. Its context is obvious and everything is easy to understand."
"The most valuable feature is the completeness of the concept. It is not restricted by where you are allowed to use it and that is its greatest strength."
"We like that this solution allows us to fully define our test environments, and link them using different code. This means we can do different tests, but with one basic structure, and then export the data and use it in other platforms."
"Creating applications in Quickbase will take, literally, a fraction of the time it would take to create them in other database applications (which shall remain unnamed)."
"I run my own business and the solution allows me to invoice and pay for additional resources. It has helped me in terms of invoicing, quoting, and doing recruitment measures."
"It is low-code. We are able to go in and create apps quickly. It is very helpful for the size of our company. We're a mid-size company, and at this moment, we don't need anything externally. We don't have to go out and consult a consulting firm to build something from the ground up. So, the ease of that and being able to get development quickly up and running has been good for us."
"It provides a well-organized method for overseeing everything, especially considering the remote work aspect."
"We have made good use of the ability in QuickBase to add multiple apps for various departments and purposes, while some apps are shared."
"The product is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of QuickBase is its dynamic form capabilities. These forms allow backend automation, making tasks like updating data based on specific conditions much easier."
"The reporting tool: It helps in data analytics to provide the solution more efficiency."
"Microsoft should combine both the web and the mobile environment with all of the layers of development into one package."
"There is room for improvement with the amount of code required to implement the expense classification app."
"The solution needs a bit more refinement in general."
"The price could be lower."
"If the price was reduced and the quality of the user interfaces was improved it would be beneficial."
"I would like to have more options for changing the layout because customizing something as simple as colors is very hard."
"PowerApps is still a bit new compared to a slightly more mature product such as OutSystems."
"Microsoft PowerApps is not responsive in nature."
". For example, we need a third-party to create and save a document in PDF, MS Word, or MS Excel format. The document saving capability is probably the feature that we most often have to procure from an outside provider."
"It would be beneficial for the QuickBase team to focus on improving the integration of cloud-based storage platforms within their product. In use cases like ours, where QuickBase serves as a centralized source of truth for construction projects, having seamless integration with platforms like Dropbox or OneDrive would greatly enhance the product's capabilities."
"The dashboard is not organized."
"I would like to see the reporting enhanced because some of them are not easy to generate."
"The product works constantly to modernize the platform and they have made quite a lot of strides in that. I would like them to add additional features that would help us make API calls."
"They could enhance the ability to link records between tables directly without the need for additional automation to increase space and time."
"I would like to see better options for producing paper reports from Quick Base, rather than viewing things exclusively on screen."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
