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)."Azure offers broad compatibility with both structured and unstructured data. For example, we use PostgreSQL for storing Azure's official data and manage various types of data, including tabular and image data, accommodating the storage of all data types we handle. So, in many ways, Azure simplified the data storage and management needs."
"We can easily access and integrate data sources from other platforms."
"The solution is stable."
"Microsoft has a lot of partners in this area, and they have a lot of information available online, so it's easy to get support."
"The best feature in Microsoft Azure is that I don't have to change computers. I don't have to upgrade or if something breaks or a hard drive crashes. The lack of a physical aspect is the major feature for me."
"The most valuable features are the interface and customizability."
"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."
"Everything is very good by way of performance."
"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."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"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."
"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 reporting tool: It helps in data analytics to provide the solution more efficiency."
"It provides a well-organized method for overseeing everything, especially considering the remote work aspect."
"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"Technical support is lacking right now. It needs to be better."
"The response time and stability of Microsoft Azure need to be improved."
"Improvements are needed in Azure to enhance integration tools and support for effectively migrating and managing third-party dependencies."
"Azure calculator could be improved, there are issues with login synchronization."
"Talking from a networking perspective, when you create a file or a rule in Azure and you want to view this IP group, sometimes the way it is displayed on the GUI, you don't see the name of the group."
"Could be more user friendly; security features should be improved."
"With a Synapse environment, we might need to switch to Databricks for better scalability."
"There are a number of services offered by AWS that are not yet available on Azure."
"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."
"The improved developer interface in some areas can be difficult to use for complex items."
"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."
"Its UI needs improvement. They should improve it and make it a little bit more modern. We should also be able to have more real-time information that connects with other software platforms. It has an open API, but it doesn't always connect with some of the other platforms that we would like to utilize. These are probably two of the biggest things for us, and hopefully, they will keep ensuring that in the future, they continually build QuickBase to be a little bit more efficient in that regard."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
"I would like the product to add more working processes."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"The dashboard is not organized."
