Overall Satisfaction with QuickBase

We use Quickbase to capture and manage marketing operations-type requests for one of our clients. It's only used by a few teams in our organization. Its biggest value-add is consolidating multiple processes and tasks into one intake system, a great convenience for our client.

Pros

  • Ease of design - I am our account administrator, with zero technical background, and was able to build our applications from the ground up.
  • Reliability - the system rarely goes down, and support is great with providing updates when the system does go down.
  • Reporting - our application has had upwards of 1500 custom reports created - easy to build and very intuitive.

Cons

  • Possibly more control for the user over form design (i.e. drag and drop sections of the form to be next to each other, change field fonts, etc.) Some of this may already be doable, just outside of my knowledge base.
  • Super specific, but it would be nice for user fields to be able to 'clear all' and then add back users you want in the field. When it takes all available users and you have a sizable number of users, it takes a while to clear them all.
  • Table to Table relationships - it would be great to have a more direct/simple way to build many-to-many relationships.
I've only been the administrator for this tool, but in my experience with other systems, the speed, ease of use and customization appear unparalleled.
Really well suited for anytime you need to capture information and manipulate it. Not so well suited for workflow building or traditional project management - have to think a bit outside the box to accommodate this.
