Quickbase Reviews & Product Details

There are several features about QuickBase that I love. 1) The relational aspect: this has allowed my organization's data from different program areas to speak to each other; 2)Automated workflows: are going to make data entry and responding to requests much more efficient for my team; 3) Flexibility: the customizability of QuickBase has been important for our database build. We are a unique organization and the granualrity of customization has made QuickBase very useful; 4) Customer Service: I've had such an excellent experience at every step of my QuickBase journey. From sales to project management to app creation.

Transitioning from Google Sheets to Quickbase has been a significant upgrade for our organization. Now, the previously siloed data from various program areas can communicate, allowing us to get a fuller picture of how clients interact with different program areas. Data is also stored in a much more cohesive manner that does not require as much duplicate entry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not much to dislike. The Google integration has been a little tricky. We are still trying to figure out how to connect to subfolders in our Google Drive instead of the main toplevel drive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Quickbase because it gives our Safety team a reliable, customizable way to track incidents, audits, training, and compliance tasks all in one place. The platform makes it easy to streamline reporting, automate follow‑ups, and maintain accurate, real‑time records—reducing the risk of missed deadlines or overlooked hazards. Its flexibility lets us adapt forms, workflows, and dashboards as safety regulations or company needs change, which strengthens our ability to respond quickly and keep our teams informed. Overall, Quickbase helps improve consistency, visibility, and accountability across our safety processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One downside of Quickbase is that its flexibility can also make it time‑consuming to set up and maintain, especially when building complex apps or workflows from scratch. Some features require a deeper learning curve, and without consistent upkeep, forms and reports can become cluttered or outdated. It can also be challenging when certain customizations need more advanced knowledge than everyday users typically have. Overall, while Quickbase is powerful, it can demand more time and technical effort than expected to keep everything running smoothly and aligned with evolving needs.

I use Quickbase to manage projects, financial reporting, and our mobile teams, and it's a big part of our operations. Quickbase helps us be more efficient and quicker in our processes, saving us a lot of labor hours while reducing mistakes and giving us cleaner data. It's easy to build and user-friendly, making it successful because people actually want to use it, and that's key. Due to its customization capabilities, we tailor it to our needs. It runs smoothly and quickly, with faster querying and searching compared to most other programs. Additionally, the community Quickbase has fostered is amazing, providing us help directly from other developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A lot of the things that could help, like performance tools, require the Enterprise plan to use. This feels counterproductive because you want Quickbase to perform well before spending more money on it. Performance tools should be standard with every Quickbase account. They need to focus on improving their current features rather than expanding more. Focus on new grid style reports and fixing bugs so we can implement them. Settle in and make what they have work before implementing new things. And they can get rid of Fast Field; no one wants to pay for it, and it doesn't integrate well enough. Negotiations on cost and renewals are not great, as I feel very frustrated with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate the powerful relationships in Quickbase. It's much stronger than other local platforms I've tried. The ability to create relationships and use them to look up or summarize values, and then perform calculations, even across multiple tables, is extremely powerful and saves a lot on automation. Quickbase is also very fast and secure. It's very easy to manage and create things, even though some items may be a bit more difficult. Overall, it feels very simple and flexible. I can visualize and build pretty much anything I want, which makes Quickbase incredibly powerful for us. The pipelines, old automations, and new pipelines are vital; without them, we couldn't move data around. I also think the rich text fields and version three tables are extremely important parts that enhance the user experience. Managing and governing the realm is easy to use, and I don't have to be an IT expert. What I like most is that it just works. It works today, it works tomorrow, and it keeps on working. I love it.

Performance of pipelines is probably the weakest link in Quickbase at the moment. The pipelines seem to have some limitation even though they claim there is no throttling. There is definitely throttling because pipelines just can't handle a lot of volume of work, which is a big drawback. Issues like requests on a pipeline step bombing out easily without a clear reason and maximum size exceeded errors contribute to variability in pipeline performance. Another issue is that the version three tables need all their bugs fixed because it is hampering user experience. Lastly, the forms need more customization and improvement. The way the buttons work at the top and how forms save and load is still clunky, leading to many user experience complaints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’m a frequent user of Quickbase and have been using it for the past five years. Overall, it’s very easy to use and manage.

I especially like creating reports based on our requirements. It helps me sort data, set up notifications for our users, and use formula fields effectively. Customer support is also strong; they respond quickly and follow up regularly.

Quickbase also provides a pipeline feature that helps us connect with other platforms and within Quickbase itself.

It is allowing teams to build applications quickly without deep programming knowledge, simple integration, which reduces development time, and implementation is easy overall Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When we use formula queries, our application becomes slow, and it affects our work progress. Also, sometimes while working on summary reports, we face the same issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Quickbase allows a lot of flexibility for creating custom Apps for different Use-cases. We've created apps for Tool and Inventory tracking, Marketing, and Project Management to name a few. The fact that there is a Mobile app also helps get the tools into more hands. If you really dig into it, you can customize it to exactly what you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a little bit of a learning curve for the deeper development side of things. The positive of being a no-code creation is also a negative in that it's harder to implement programming deeper uses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Quickbase has been a solid tool for us, especially when it comes to managing the logistics of our food delivery program. One of the things I appreciate most is how well it integrates with other tools we use, like FastField. For example, we’ve been able to connect our bulk order forms directly into Quickbase, so every submission automatically creates a record in our Quickbase tables. It's very easy to pick up and lets us easily manipulate large amounts of data to gain incredibly useful insights on our processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

More customizability would be very helpful. We've found a lot of utility with the Code Page feature, but it lacks a lot of elements that traditional IDE environments have, like debugging and support for file structures. Pipelines could also be a little more intuitive. Otherwise, it has been a very easy to use and powerful tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part about quickbase is how user-friendly and interactive it is to be able to create your own apps and develop ways on how to create records and databases that can rely with one another to ensure data consistency within the whole system. There are multiple APIs/pipelines as well that allow Quickbase to collaborate with other systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm just beginning with the whole developing part on the whole so it can get overwhelming to start even with all of the available resources for self-studying and other peers that provide support in giving more wisdom and knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If you need a data store with UI. A store you can share with customers and internally. The platform is very fast and stable. There are multiple ways to build the same solution depending on how much time one has to learn the details. The community is supportive and love to come up with a million solutions.

With proper support this service could be really good. The long term committment it would take is missing a champion capable of understanding humans. Product comes off as impatient and appears to have a different agenda than the customers. This difference leads to a lack of comminucation and transparency and thus confidence. Further, fit and finish falters as things break and no one fixes them claiming end of support (for years). One feels a resistance when talking with employees. Many employees express frustration by the disconnect between leadership and providing quality software. At the cusomer level the dysfunction appears as turbulence, high turnover rate, quota's and deadlines. The result is the Software as a Service model no longer acts like a service for the customer but a struggle. The software is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
