Quickbase Reviews & Product Details

Quickbase is an AI-driven platform designed to help businesses streamline their operations by adapting to their unique workflows and processes. Unlike traditional off-the-shelf software, which often requires users to conform to predefined structures, Quickbase empowers organizations to create customized solutions that align with their specific needs. This flexibility is crucial for companies seeking to eliminate inefficiencies and reduce the burden of 'Gray Work' - what we call the time-consuming tasks and manual processes that arise from using rigid software systems. The target audience for Quickbase includes businesses of all sizes across various industries that are looking to enhance their operational efficiency. Whether it's a 50 person small business or a large enterprise, organizations can benefit from a platform that allows them to connect disparate data sources, automate repetitive tasks, and scale their competitive advantages. Quickbase is particularly valuable for teams that rely on collaboration and data-driven decision-making, as it fosters an environment where information flows seamlessly and processes are optimized. Key features of Quickbase include its intuitive interface, which allows users to build custom applications without extensive coding knowledge. This user-friendly design enables teams to quickly adapt the platform to their specific workflows, ensuring that they can address unique challenges without the need for extensive IT support. Additionally, Quickbase offers powerful automation capabilities, allowing users to set up triggers and workflows that reduce manual effort and streamline operations. The platform also supports integration with various data sources, enabling businesses to consolidate their information and gain valuable insights. One of the standout benefits of Quickbase is its ability to scale with your business. As organizations grow and evolve, their processes often become more complex. Quickbase's adaptable nature ensures that users can modify their applications and workflows as needed, without the constraints typically associated with traditional software. This flexibility not only saves time but also fosters innovation, as teams can experiment with new processes and tools that enhance their productivity. By prioritizing user-centric design and adaptability, Quickbase stands out in the crowded landscape of business software solutions. It provides organizations with the tools they need to optimize their operations, reduce inefficiencies, and ultimately drive growth. With Quickbase, businesses can focus on what truly matters—leveraging their unique processes to gain a competitive edge in their respective markets.

"An amazing service that just keeps getting more expensive without alternatives for small business"

2/5

What do you like best about Quickbase?

This product is well-designed and works exactly as described. The features have evolved but generally have been the same interface since I began using it in 2015. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Quickbase?

The price is absolutely asinine! They are making me switch to another competitor because the price is so exaggerated from what you receive. There needs to be a "toned down" version that doesn't require 10 users. Very disappointed in the direction this company has gone. I had hopes this would end eventually but these people are money hungry! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Rollout Apps Quickly and Integrate with Almost Anything. But, Mobile Needs A Lot of Work."

4/5

What do you like best about Quickbase?

I like being able to quickly create simple apps and reports to roll out. When you get to more complicated use cases, it's usually doable.

There are a plethora of resources available online when you need help. Their help pages, Quickbase University, recorded Webinars, discussion pages, and various 3rd party support make it so that you can usually find an answer somewhere.

If you can't find the answer online, then Quickbase support is one of the better support teams I've worked with.

But, their single greatest thing may be Pipelines. Automations, app integrations, and API support are powerful and easy with Pipelines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Quickbase?

I really don't like that the development environment and the end user environment are so intertwined. I wish there was a clear wall separating the 2 areas. With complicated app development, having that wall would save a lot of headache and help better manage app changes.

Their Mobile app needs a major overhaul. Navigation is terrrible and not user friendly, development for the mobile side is very limited.

Pipelines is getting a UI refresh that will finally allow us to reorder and add steps. But, they're making things harder for selecting input fields and Jinja inputs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"HIghly versatile software that yields rapid development"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Quickbase?

With Quickbase it has been fast and easy to add functionality when a new need arises. We have eliminated information silo's and diverged away from spreadsheets managed at the individual level. The more data available to the Quickbase platform the more relationships that can be made, information cross referenced, and information revealed. We have been built in functionality and data to managed and relate data that have been on the company to do list for years Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Quickbase?

Better integration with Outlook contacts, e-mail, and calendar Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"After 20 years Quickbase is still an amateur product"

0.5/5

What do you like best about Quickbase?

In general, once you understand databases, working with Quickbase is relatively easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Quickbase?

The people that design it must not use it or understand how people actually use it. It's severely limiting in its capability, especially offline. Dashboards, reports and forms can barely be customized. The only way we've gotten data to be presentable or useful is to export the data to other platforms. But the worst part is that their product development team is years behind what they have promised and their team that fixes known issues is non-existent. If they put as much effort into product development as they did in sales, the product would be twice as good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1 - Building user-friendly forms.

2 - Customizing app and table home pages.

We also encourage you to explore our new form experience and mobile dashboards, released earlier this month, making Quickbase easier to build and use!

Thanks again for your review; we appreciate your feedback, and look forward to collaborating together!

"Powerful at any skill level"

What do you dislike about Quickbase?

Sometimes Quickbase tries to be too helpul. It assumes what you are trying to do--and it might be right most of the time--but when it's not, it makes more work for you. I would like to see more support for the document model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The base for a quick good working..."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Quickbase?

The connectivity with others app and software we use at the enterprise is just perfect to synchronize all the data to create really useful info into the Quick Base. The easy way to create forms, reports and many types of charts is pretty well. . . The way of presenting the info is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Quickbase?

Maybe the first time I did a relationship, but you can resolve that issue studying a little. . . There's missing a Quick Base manual for amateur and of course, for experts. . . It's been a long learning way to have and we have now, and it's not finished yet, so I hope that someone can do this manuals to improve the very first experience for the users.

They also need to create anchors on the tabs, so you can redirect directly to an specific tab of an specific form. . . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Quickbase:

I didn't like it at first cause I was only a user, but now, I am making my own app for the my company. Is so useful if you know how to take the maximum advantage. The Quick Base people is always offering training and certifications. So, it is possible to became and expert if you want to. . . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Quickbase solving and how is that benefiting you?

Connecting the accounting software and the control project software with Quick Base let us use the earned value method, so we can have a pretty certain projection (on the go), of how the well the project is and will be in terms of cost and time. . . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Introduction of SQL in formula query"

3/5

What do you like best about Quickbase?

I started using Quickbase recently for my work, i love no code to low code usage in Quickbase. But one thing I miss the most in Quickbase is the column customization option. I worked with Looker in my previous company and it provided an option to use SQL if we wanted to add a custom column and I wish with Quickbase being a most versatile tool, if they could add an option of using SQL as part of their formula query, it would increase the ability to create and use custom columns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Quickbase?

Limitations in creating custom columns and trying to find work around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With Quickbase I can create application available to everyone, which eliminates duplicate work and unnecessary communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Quickbase?

Some limitations which require creating custom workarounds. I know Quickbase team is working hard to deliver those features but it could be faster (easy to say, and I know, it is not so easy to deliver 😀) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
