Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Oracle, OutSystems and others in Rapid Application Development Software."We have made good use of the ability in QuickBase to add multiple apps for various departments and purposes, while some apps are shared."
"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"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 need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"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)."
"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."
"Considering factors like functionality and price, the product proves to be worth the investment."
"Contact records are most valuable."
"It is a good platform that shows consolidation of information for our customer base."
"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."
"Suitable for all sizes of organizations."
"The most valuable features of Salesforce Sales Cloud are opportunity management and metric integration."
"The dashboards and dashboard customization are great."
"Salesforce is a very powerful tool which helps us to build that through tools like Process Builder or Flows, or even write code to achieve these scenarios."
"The most valuable features of Salesforce Sales Cloud are increased productivity and business accuracy."
"They could enhance the ability to link records between tables directly without the need for additional automation to increase space and time."
"The improved developer interface in some areas can be difficult to use for complex items."
"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. ."
"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."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"The dashboard is not organized."
"If the infrastructure is not correct, then customers are having an issue and it's taking a lot of time to load."
"I would love Salesforce to keep on committing and building out what they call flows. It's their point-and-click version of coding. You don't have to be a coder to create essentially what a developer would have to normally, which is a great feature, but it could still be improved upon."
"The performance is sometimes slow. There is too much information and this makes it difficult to find the answers we are looking for."
"The built-in functionality is a little dated."
"The licensing price could be cheaper."
"I would like to see a more affordable licensing model."
"The solution's configuration could be improved because getting a purchase order and administrating the right fields can be a real headache for us, especially when the Sales Cloud system enters an error stage."
"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."
