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 solution offers very good upgrades and updates regularly."
"I have found the solution to be flexible, easy to use, and the documents are straightforward to understand."
"The solution is very flexible, it is not limited to Microsoft solutions. It integrates well with other solutions, such as Oracle. There are a lot of templates we are able to use allowing us to reduce the time for configuration."
"We didn't have any problems setting it up."
"We have found the scalability to be good."
"Technical support, from what I understand, is quite helpful and we speak with them regularly."
"Great features at a good price."
"The most important thing is we don't have to maintain any physical infrastructure. With typical conventional on-premise solutions, we have to maintain many things like the hardware, clusters, etc. With this cloud platform, you don't have to worry about all those things. We have the service always available, and this is the main advantage. I like that we use everything on our standard Active Directory on on-premises on Azure. The key advantage is that you can have the sole indication based on the cloud. This isn't possible with an on-premise Active Directory. This enables work from home and at the office because it's on the cloud."
"This solution has provided for Rapid deployment of data collection tools, replacing spreadsheets with near real-time data."
"Allows users have anytime/anywhere access."
"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."
"QuickBase is an excellent product and it is very easy to get support."
"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."
"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 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 security of the solution could always be much better."
"Auto ML could be improved technically."
"The subscription licensing is very complex and we would like to have it simplified."
"Azure installation is complicated. When we first deployed Azure, it was challenging."
"The only thing is regarding the management of multi-cloud environments. That's not really possible."
"Microsoft Azure is so complicated inside. If you should do something internally, if you have to configure something, the opinion about Azure is that it is a little complicated inside. That's why the end users and clients are looking for help and why we help them configure and do anything inside of Azure. That is why we offer other tools to optimize the Azure environment."
"I believe that some of the services need to be available on the on-premises version and not only based on the cloud."
"We have faced some challenges trying to deploy a new ESP application."
"The dashboard is not organized."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
"The mobile app has improved, but it still needs work."
"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."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"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."
"Access to more standard default layouts and sample builds would be useful, and access to more training on use and flexibility."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
