Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The ease of use is valuable.""The ability to network informally is great for communicating with colleagues."

More Basecamp Pros →

"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.""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).""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.""Allows users have anytime/anywhere access.""The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge.""It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments.""QuickBase is an excellent product and it is very easy to get support.""The product is easy to use."

More QuickBase Pros →

"The solution is stable and reliable.""It's a very easy-to-use and flexible tool. We can easily write and create queues for different themes. It's very user-friendly.""The most valuable feature of Wrike is the tag functionality.""This is a good tool for project progress tracking and sharing tasks with internal and external parties.""The product is intuitive. It is easy to learn and update. You can follow the project from the beginning till the end with the help of the solution. The tool helps to update the project in seconds.""Visibility and organization are the most valuable features of Wrike.""In our company, we heavily rely on Wrike. Wrike has helped in communication, managing all sorts of projects and tasks, and having a history of all our correspondence items.""We utilize time tracking and reports most often."

More Wrike Pros →

Cons
"The product isn't easy to use. It's not very intuitive.""The solution could be more user-friendly."

More Basecamp Cons →

"They could enhance the ability to link records between tables directly without the need for additional automation to increase space and time.""Access to more standard default layouts and sample builds would be useful, and access to more training on use and flexibility.""There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."". 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.""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.""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."

More QuickBase Cons →

"What annoys me with Wrike and things that I would like to improve is that you need to have a very organized workflow that everyone in the company follows, and only then will Wrike work.""Wrike needs to be more responsive to community requests for new features.""The product needs to send direct emails to customers updating the latest aspects since it is better to hear directly.""The response from the website is a little bit slow, and the tool is too expensive for a small team.""It would be great if they could develop more reporting.""We feel that the actual project reports and roll-ups could be a lot different. We are seeking something more for the dashboard. We would like a high-level dashboard that can be broken down into individual product roll-ups and tasks that are assigned. If you assign someone to a task, it assigns them all of the tasks under that. We want to be able to break those down so that a person doesn't have an 800 task list, for example. We want more separation with that and a higher-level dashboard experience.""On one side, it's very easy to create a task with text, but on the other side, it's not very well-formatted. Therefore, it's difficult to track specific data written in a task. We are making templates, but it's not enough to use a template to know the exact status of different tasks. One thing that we are looking for in Wrike is a better workflow. Because we can only move the status of tasks, we can't really manage workflow and send a task to a specific person. This is what is really missing in Wrike as compared to other tools. We are looking to replace Wrike because we need support for workflow. Another issue with Wrike is that they bring a lot of versions of the tool, which it's not so easy. They bring new versions very frequently, and these versions look similar. For example, we are using robots to read the tasks in the tools, which is problematic with Wrike because it is changing very frequently.""We faced an issue with the Wrike outlook add-on; it is only available for Microsoft Office 365, and not the on-premise version."
