Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Oracle and others in Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS)."Active Directory is a good feature. The infrastructure features that Azure provides are also good."
"The portal makes it easier to work with the solution."
"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."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the single sign-on with multifactor authentication."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is its ease of use."
"The solution offers very good upgrades and updates regularly."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the integration between all of the components in Azure."
"It has superb ease of use and no code needed to create and build apps and databases."
"The product is easy to use."
"We have made good use of the ability in QuickBase to add multiple apps for various departments and purposes, while some apps are shared."
"This solution has provided for Rapid deployment of data collection tools, replacing spreadsheets with near real-time data."
"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."
"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"Considering factors like functionality and price, the product proves to be worth the investment."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"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."
"The level of authorization or authorization cascading can be improved. We have the most powerful admins and then we have sub-admins, but the level of authorization is not that easy to handle or manage."
"Sometimes performance takes a hit on a slow network."
"While integrating services from different vendors, the perceived costs are high, with occasional confusion about specific charges, especially in data transfer scenarios between regions."
"From a security perspective, there is always something that can be improved as we serve our customers."
"The security must be improved."
"If the price were reduced then it would be an improvement."
"Technical support could be better. They need to be more responsive."
"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."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
"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 product works constantly to modernize the platform and they have made quite a lot of strides in that. I would like them to add additional features that would help us make API calls."
"The improved developer interface in some areas can be difficult to use for complex items."
"I would like the product to add more working processes."
"Access to more standard default layouts and sample builds would be useful, and access to more training on use and flexibility."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
