Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Oracle and others in Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS)."The user interface is very good for administrators."
"In general, the entire suite of PaaS is valuable. It enables a true breakdown of IT siloes and allows an organization to embrace DevOps."
"The most valuable features of the solution are ease of use and the enhancements are continually being updated."
"We have not had any issues with the performance, or the stability."
"The product brings a lot of value to our business and customers."
"Microsoft offers free courses and an exam on their products. Many of my colleagues who use Microsoft Azure take advantage of those free courses to help them learn about the solution in depth."
"The support is responsive and dedicated to SMEs."
"The advantage of Microsoft Azure is its simplicity. It's easy to launch a project. However, the problem with this kind of solution is the reliability for the customers. You have to be sure to stay with Microsoft."
"The product is easy to use."
"This solution has provided for Rapid deployment of data collection tools, replacing spreadsheets with near real-time data."
"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)."
"The usability of QuickBase largely depends on how you design your workflows within the platform. If you keep them simple and straightforward, it can be a highly usable product."
"It has superb ease of use and no code needed to create and build apps and databases."
"QuickBase reminds me when a software license or a hardware support contract is near expiration so that I can initiate our company's procurement process in time and not miss a deadline."
"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"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."
"Microsoft Azure can be pretty advanced and difficult to understand. I would like it to be simplified. The licensing especially needs to be simplified."
"I would like to see more databases on the cloud, what they call today Big Data should be there."
"Technical support is lacking right now. It needs to be better."
"The deployment was quite complex."
"From a security perspective, there is always something that can be improved as we serve our customers."
"There are so many services available that the interface is a little bit messy, and when you're looking for a specific service, you have to know exactly where to search."
"The solution should improve the shared cache. For the shared cache, Microsoft uses RADIUS third-party services. We have a lot of trouble with RADIUS and I suppose that is due to the fact that is not owned completely by Microsoft."
"They need to make storage easy and offer more interconnectivity between solutions."
"Whenever we do onboarding, or we get new employees, there tends to be a delay of not just a week but a couple of weeks, and sometimes even a few weeks of being able to see certain new employees in the system."
"The improved developer interface in some areas can be difficult to use for complex items."
"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 mobile app has improved, but it still needs work."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
"I would like the product to add more working processes."
"I would like to see better options for producing paper reports from Quick Base, rather than viewing things exclusively on screen."
