Find out in this report how the two Rapid Application Development Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is automized processes."
"As a business person, I design a lot of screens. The solution really resonates with me. Their design is amazing."
"There's a lot of online knowledge on the solution, to the point where new users can basically teach themselves how to use the solution."
"It allows us to provide all the information in one single place."
"The solution is very straightforward. Its context is obvious and everything is easy to understand."
"The initial setup is not complicated."
"The most valuable feature is the time-to-market because you can make apps pretty fast."
"It’s a stable product."
"Considering factors like functionality and price, the product proves to be worth the investment."
"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)."
"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."
"It has superb ease of use and no code needed to create and build apps and databases."
"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 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."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"This solution has provided for Rapid deployment of data collection tools, replacing spreadsheets with near real-time data."
"There is room for improvement in error handling and debugging."
"Microsoft should combine both the web and the mobile environment with all of the layers of development into one package."
"Can be improved to cater to complex developments."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities in the future."
"In an upcoming release, I would like to see custom APIs, better integration with other solutions, and more connectors available."
"Microsoft PowerApps is not intended for customizing what's generated in a major way."
"They probably need to improve intelligent document processing."
"It's sometimes hard to import groups of options. At this point, I need to enter those manually and it slows the process down."
"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."
"I would like to see the reporting enhanced because some of them are not easy to generate."
"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."
"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."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
"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."
