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 virtual machines are stand-out."
"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."
"It's been pretty useful in terms of migration and disaster recovery strategy."
"I think Azure's level of automation to achieve efficiency or agility is valuable. I also like the change capability cadence, the showback capabilities, and understanding what our costs are."
"The solution is similar to a plug-and-play system, it is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the integration between all of the components in Azure."
"The most valuable feature is the single sign-on with multifactor authentication."
"We find that it is easy to integrate with other Microsoft technologies such as Microsoft Office."
"Allows users have anytime/anywhere access."
"This solution has provided for Rapid deployment of data collection tools, replacing spreadsheets with near real-time data."
"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"The reporting tool: It helps in data analytics to provide the solution more efficiency."
"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."
"QuickBase is an excellent product and it is very easy to get support."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"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)."
"It is impossible to sell a cloud-based model here in Venezuela because we have strong inflation and most of our clients are immigrating to on-premises solutions."
"It would be helpful if it offered more integration with other platforms."
"Microsoft Azure could improve by having more virtual machine operating systems available."
"The support team is not responding to my emails."
"I haven't checked the console for some time, however, compared to the AWS console, the interaction console of the web part, the web services, it's not so easy."
"Specifically, I would like to see better Azure Data Analytics and monitoring RF."
"I believe that some of the services need to be available on the on-premises version and not only based on the cloud."
"Maybe Azure could add an address code to create your analysis without SQL or Python because some business users don't want it to code. So it's good to have a service application that connects to the data lake to conduct analysis and simplify the business process."
"Access to more standard default layouts and sample builds would be useful, and access to more training on use and flexibility."
"The dashboard is not organized."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"They could enhance the ability to link records between tables directly without the need for additional automation to increase space and time."
"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."
"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."
". 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."
"The improved developer interface in some areas can be difficult to use for complex items."
