We performed a comparison between Microsoft Azure and QuickBase based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Oracle and others in Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS)."The most valuable aspect of Azure is the flexibility you have for all the services and solutions it offers, even if you use IaaS, PaaS, or SaaS, you have the option to only pay for the services you use."
"One advantage of using Azure is that clients can start with a low-cost entry in terms of hardware and scale as their business and user base grows. They don't need to allocate a large budget for infrastructure upfront."
"Provides a high level of availability and 99% uptime."
"The most valuable features of the solution are ease of use and the enhancements are continually being updated."
"Virtual machine services, in SaaS services, M365, and Data Lake are all popular with our clients."
"One of the best features is the last package security of upgrades to Microsoft Azure. Also, we like Azure's compatibility with other operating systems."
"We have implemented the ExpressRoute connection, which is an established circuit between the local provider and the Microsoft network edge."
"I like that it is user-friendly and flexible."
"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 provides a well-organized method for overseeing everything, especially considering the remote work aspect."
"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."
"There's a lot of stability in QuickBase...I really appreciate the processing part of QuickBase, especially considering how we're able to get information in real time instead of having to wait."
"Allows users have anytime/anywhere access."
"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."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"Considering factors like functionality and price, the product proves to be worth the investment."
"The design of the platform is not so easy to navigate. It's not very user-friendly."
"The solution is less mature than AWS."
"The initial setup is quite complex because of the number of options that are available."
"It should have cost optimization tools. Customers are required to use third-party applications to avoid usage complications."
"In the next release, I would like to see better security."
"There could be more documentation and video tutorials to incorporate each and every feature. This way one can easily get the knowledge and implement it."
"Because it has a lot of features, a person just coming into Microsoft Azure might feel that it is a bit complex."
"I would want Microsoft Azure to provide some credits that can be used to test and validate Microsoft’s different solutions since it is an area where the product lacks."
"Access to more standard default layouts and sample builds would be useful, and access to more training on use and flexibility."
"I would like to see better options for producing paper reports from Quick Base, rather than viewing things exclusively on screen."
". 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."
"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."
"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."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
"I would like to see the reporting enhanced because some of them are not easy to generate."
"I would like the product to add more working processes."
