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)."User interface and portal are great."
"One feature I like in Microsoft Azure is its ability to host and run applications on virtual machines. It is a basic yet crucial capability for our team."
"The most valuable features of the solution are for management, such as dashboards."
"The customer service and support are very good. When we raise a ticket, we quickly get feedback or someone assigned to help us identify the problem, which, 90% of the time, was on our end. I'm very happy with the support they provide."
"Feature-wise, I like its stability. Also, it is easy to access the solution and its options."
"The product is rather stable. We haven't had any issues with it in that sense."
"Databricks is really nice because you have the power to process lots of data and you can create queries and provide big analysis for the business using a robust cluster."
"Offers many data security features including securing network access."
"QuickBase reminds me when a software license or a hardware support contract is near expiration so that I can initiate our company's procurement process in time and not miss a deadline."
"Considering factors like functionality and price, the product proves to be worth the investment."
"It has superb ease of use and no code needed to create and build apps and databases."
"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)."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"The interface is not easy to use. I'd like to see them develop a better interface, more graphical information about the resource and the consumer."
"Its pricing should be better. In terms of features, I am yet to explore the whole solution, and the current features seem okay."
"The tool needs to improve its navigation."
"The integration pipeline could be a bit more broad in terms of applications."
"There are times when using a service in Microsoft Azure can be confusing because you have four or five options that do similar operations. It would be helpful if there was a clear decision tree around those features. Microsoft does provide a lot of decision trees around a lot of their services, but it's not for everything."
"We had issues with the Mobile Service ORM and the Azure SQL Database (cloud version of SQL Server). At times, the queries that are created automatically from the ORM mapping are not very well optimized for this database and that can lead to performance and stability issues. On occasion, the connection manager from the ORM does not handle the database connections very well."
"The solution lacks fluidity and is not intuitive."
"Its subscription price could be cheaper."
"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."
"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."
"The dashboard is not organized."
"The improved developer interface in some areas can be difficult to use for complex items."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
