"The reporting tool: It helps in data analytics to provide the solution more efficiency."
"QuickBase is an excellent product and it is very easy to get support."
"This solution has provided for Rapid deployment of data collection tools, replacing spreadsheets with near real-time data."
"The product is easy to use."
"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."
"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."
"Allows users have anytime/anywhere access."
"This is a stable product."
"The development cost, maintenance cost, everything will be drastically reduced - unlike traditional infrastructure where we maintain everything on our own."
"One of the most valuable features is the automation of Sales Cloud. It gives us the ability to easily—without the use of coding—create automation in order for us to do our work a lot more efficiently, whether it's notification reminders or certain automatic processes. There are a lot of things that Sales Cloud can do that, in my opinion, make everyone's jobs a whole lot easier and give them the visibility they need when they require it, when talking to customers and prospecting. It makes the account management process easier as well."
"The user interface is pretty simple."
"It is nice to have the install base information at your fingertips when you look up a company."
"It is a very good tool. There are a lot of interesting features. It is one of the best solutions."
"Salesforce is such a widespread software in terms of what it can do and its scope. Theoretically, you can run a whole company off of it. There are many valuable features, such as reporting and analytics. You can customize almost the whole environment is what appeals to so many companies the most."
"The company wants to implement the idea of democracy within IT. As an end user, you can do a lot by yourself, so you do not have to write code. The idea is that they go for low-code and they use flow. It's possible to update records and do things like automation without writing real codes. I think this is one of the advantages of the solution."
"I would like to see better options for producing paper reports from Quick Base, rather than viewing things exclusively on screen."
"The mobile app has improved, but it still needs work."
"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."
"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."
"I would like to see the reporting enhanced because some of them are not easy to generate."
"Access to more standard default layouts and sample builds would be useful, and access to more training on use and flexibility."
"The improved developer interface in some areas can be difficult to use for complex items."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
"I think the user experience could be improved. I would like the user interface to be a bit more user-friendly and modern."
"The built-in functionality is a little dated."
"The licensing price could be cheaper."
"Sales Cloud could be improved with more training. In general, the training is very good, but you have to really seek out some good options in order to upskill yourself. Another thing, which could also be a benefit, is that Sales is very customizable. If you move from one organization to another, you can see your Salesforce as before, but their Sales Cloud may look completely different from what you're used to. It's not like Microsoft Excel or Trello, where the layout and all the functions are the same. Because it's so customizable, I feel like there is a bit of a learning curve when you inherit another Sales Cloud instance. To be honest, I think that's the beauty of Salesforce because you can customize it so much to fit your needs as a company. It follows your processes and use cases in order for you to get the most out of the system itself."
"I would like to see licensing fees reduced in the next release."
"It is a bit pricey."
"The solution could improve the partner management and communities. For the enterprise licenses, we have the help, but it should also be extended with the features to the partner community."
"The cost of this solution could be improved."
