Best way to quickly unlock your data and accelerate your business

  • June 14, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I have used Quickbase at 2 different companies now; one a non profit and the other for profit. We were able to quickly setup and use Quickbase to provide data to employees that was previously locked away in other systems. I like that we can make changes on the fly to requests and respond to employee needs in a timely manner, Even better, once we have shown a few people how to build apps it tends to spread and the need for IT to manage the process starts to fade away. It has allowed employees to ask deeper questions because they see the data in front of them and don't need to wait for someone else to run a report for them and then email them an excel file.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only issue that I have is sometimes the flexibility is not always what I want, this tends to only happen when we have issues that are at the bleeding edge of functionality. However, because of great partners we have found ways to get around most of our issues, with things like exactforms plus. Generally speaking there is always a way to get something done.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our biggest business problem we have solved is getting data out of legacy systems and visible to the company. When we don't need to wait for people to update an excel spreadsheet and pass it around it allows the business to work faster. We are in a time sensitive industry and being able to have people on the road make changes or approve things makes us better. It also allows us to be smarter, we can see everything at a glace and do deep dives on information if necessary. We have empowered users to make new data discoveries.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try and people will love it because it makes doing their jobs easier.

Super easy way to build customized cloud-based applications

  • April 08, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is incredibly easy to build a highly customized application. We are a marketing team that serves as a "shared service center," so we needed a tool that provides both a front-end to capture "tickets" and a back-end to manage our projects. We couldn't find any existing tools that would work with this, so we turned to Quickbase to build our own. It has worked exceptionally well for us.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were some more automated abilities that push Quickbase past being solely a database platform. For example, it would be great if we could build in workflows so that when someone submits a new ticket, it would automatically assign multiple tasks in a sub-table based on a workflow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quickbase serves jointly as a helpdesk and project management solution for us. It has been enormously helpful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be prepared to put some work into setting the system up up front. However, it is actually relatively easy to do, and the customizability is excellent. The only downside is that it's really just a powerful database - concepts like macros or similar do not exist in Quickbase.
