What do you like best about the product?

Quickbase is incredibly useful for our business case since it allows non-technical users to function as developers very quickly. We have numerous users who need the ability to spin up small project applications, and are able to do so quickly and with minimal technical training. This allows us to integrate our many complex systems and existing solutions really seamlessly, without contracting externally or hiring dedicated developers. We've also had great interactions with our service reps and the Quickbase team as whole, they've been responsive and helped us find solutions to problems we couldn't solve ourselves. Quickbase hasn't been in our process that long yet (2-3 years), but has quickly become a daily driver for our team.

What do you dislike about the product?

The largest hurdle that we experience regularly with Quickbase is the lack of official development resources. The Quickbase development community (the Qrew) is really helpful in this area, but there's often not a specific resource that can be found about the types of issues we're trying to solve. This has previously led to our team thinking that they were trying to do something impossible within the platform or that a certain feature did not exist even though Quickbase was capable of solving the issues they wanted it to.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Prior to Quickbase, a huge amount of the complex work we do (aviation industry) existed in the form of thousands of spreadsheets. This resulted in huge problems when someone would move on from the organization, or simply forget where they had saved a particular sheet. Quickbase allowed us to centralize all our work and bring a lot of those disparate resources together into one central hub.
