"The product has good usability, in terms of low-code applications."
"Overall the solution is reliable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the Model-driven or Canvas application-making platforms. The power of the two gives us exactly what we are looking for."
"When I am developing any user UI, it gives me complete flexibility. I can manage in any way I want."
"It is good for using for small apps and automation on Office stuff."
"It is stable and reliable."
"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."
"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 superb ease of use and no code needed to create and build apps and databases."
"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."
"Allows users have anytime/anywhere access."
"It provides a well-organized method for overseeing everything, especially considering the remote work aspect."
"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)."
"I am impressed with the product's automation which makes everything easy."
"The set up of the solution could be simpler."
"Can be improved to cater to complex developments."
"I have always felt that you need an IT background to use this solution."
"One area where the solution lacks is the limited size of the database it offers its users."
"There is room for improvement with the amount of code required to implement the expense classification app."
"The connectors are the main components that reference the data sources, and these need to be improved."
"PowerApps can't do a lot of things that users need now. For example, it can't handle signatures."
"There are occasional performance challenges."
"The dashboard is not organized."
"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."
"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."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"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."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."
"Access to more standard default layouts and sample builds would be useful, and access to more training on use and flexibility."
