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."
"It's been pretty useful in terms of migration and disaster recovery strategy."
"The design of Microsoft Azure is for it to be scalable and it is scalable."
"The focus on security is excellent. We really appreciate that about the solution."
"The technical support has been good."
"The solution has given us more agility, scalability and opportunity to optimize the cost."
"My experience with technical support so far is very good."
"The product is a cloud solution."
"We have made good use of the ability in QuickBase to add multiple apps for various departments and purposes, while some apps are shared."
"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."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"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."
"This solution has provided for Rapid deployment of data collection tools, replacing spreadsheets with near real-time data."
"The product is easy to use."
"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 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 pricing in our region can be a bit high."
"The main issue is the lack of notifications for updates. Processes for certain operations, like connecting to Git repositories, have changed without sufficient communication. A system to announce or update users about these changes would be very helpful."
"One area for enhancement could be in the realm of big data and unstructured data storage."
"Something that could be added to the solution is the use of deep learning, which is going to grow in the near future."
"The solution could improve by providing a better user interface and more organized workflows."
"From a security perspective, there is always something that can be improved as we serve our customers."
"There are multiple DevOps solutions and tools available in Microsoft Azure, but most of the time they are either in the build mode, meaning you don't get complete support for them because they are either making changes, or changing the names of the particular services. Sometimes, services vanish from the portal. We are not able to see that. I think they actually change the names of the services."
"Use of the solution could be easier."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."
"I would like to see better options for producing paper reports from Quick Base, rather than viewing things exclusively on screen."
"Access to more standard default layouts and sample builds would be useful, and access to more training on use and flexibility."
"The mobile app has improved, but it still needs work."
"The dashboard is not organized."
"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."
"I would like to see the reporting enhanced because some of them are not easy to generate."
