Quick Profile of Quickbase
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Quickbase in various ways to support tracking and reporting of information. Many processes that were manual or tracked in spreadsheets have been converted to Quickbase applications. The business areas include administrative, clinical, research, Human Resources, information services, interpreter services, nursing, facilities, project management, time reporting, communications, and more. The scope is different for each app. One of our primary applications is to track projects - active and pipeline - as well as other work for an overall IT portfolio. I use it to review status, track progress, and report overall statistics to leadership.
