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)."We've got multiple tools on Azure, which is a very good feature of Azure. Our Palo Alto firewall and other things are hosted in Azure. We're using Sentinel as well, which is a security tool that is being used by our SOC teams. I've also used AWS, and I find Azure to be more Windows-driven. Although Azure is newer as compared to AWS, it is growing fast. Microsoft is working towards the betterment of Azure."
"The most valuable feature is the single sign-on with multifactor authentication."
"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."
"Azure is stable. I don't have any problems with it."
"It is stable and scalable."
"Its resiliency is most valuable. It is also a very scalable solution, so you can spend the resources on demand."
"It was easy to deploy our applications on it."
"We have implemented the ExpressRoute connection, which is an established circuit between the local provider and the Microsoft network edge."
"QuickBase is an excellent product and it is very easy to get support."
"The reporting tool: It helps in data analytics to provide the solution more efficiency."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"The product is easy to use."
"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 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."
"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"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."
"Some of the capabilities available in an on-premise SQL Server aren't available in Azure. For instance, we found Azure Managed Instance to be lacking in certain aspects. One of our clients decided to stay on-premise rather than migrate to Azure because of this reason."
"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."
"Azure ARM console can be a bit overwhelming at the beginning."
"The management portal can be confusing sometimes. We have difficulty navigating the menus because the terminology is unclear, especially when referring to the content or actionable items."
"The authentication method only allows me to have up to 90 users, and there are 2,300 people in the company."
"It would be ideal if they could reduce costs a bit. Right now, we find the product to be expensive."
"I believe that some of the services need to be available on the on-premises version and not only based on the cloud."
"The pricing criteria can be improved with broken-down terms that can be understood easily."
"The dashboard is not organized."
"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."
"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."
". 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."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"I would like to see the reporting enhanced because some of them are not easy to generate."
"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."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
