Sherif Bashar - PeerSpot reviewer
Head Of Digital Solutions at Aptec Ingrammicro
Offers low-code/no-code concept makes development much easier and faster and offers good community support as the development team actively answers questions on the community every day
There are very minor things, like the feature called "action chains," that could use a bit of enhancement. But the team is perfect; they're working on it. An action chain is a sequence of actions triggered by a button or an event. It executes code in order, from top to bottom. For example, it could call a code, call a REST service, and then insert data into a database. It needs enhancement because it can be a bit complex for fresh grads or new developers to understand. It would be better if it was made more readable. That's the main point. But if you have experience, you'll understand it easily. One more thing I want to add about Visual Builder: up until two years ago, it supported native mobile development. That's not available anymore. They replaced native mobile development with progressive web apps, and most customers are complaining about that. We need native mobile development back – the ability to put apps on stores like Google Play or the App Store. That feature is not available right now, and they deprecated it starting in 2024. It's very important. Otherwise, clients go with Flutter or other mobile development tools. It would be good for Oracle to regain that capability. We need the native mobile development feature back.

Automation has transformed project and inventory workflows and improves revenue forecasting
The best features QuickBase offers include being a no-code software, meaning it is very easy to use even for new users. It also provides life cycle management, workflow management, and dashboards. The dashboards and workflow management help my team significantly, as they have a drag-and-drop interface and prebuilt templates, which play a pivotal role in creating custom applications. Those features also help provide the ability to manage the entire application life cycle with QuickBase easily. Integration has been very seamless with our overall IT stack. The user interface is very user-friendly and intuitive, which makes it very easy to use, together with the no-code aspect. Any kind of personnel can use this tool easily.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The initial setup is easy."
"The action chains are really helpful, and the trigger event, along with those action chains, has been very helpful."
"VBS is another tool that allows users to create enterprise applications without needing to store their projects in traditional databases like SQL."
"You don't need a dedicated IDE to develop. You can work from any browser, which is very convenient. And, with the cloud concept, your code is stored in the cloud, so you can modify it from anywhere, at any time."
"You can avoid costly React developers that are required for building advanced UI."
"The tool is very easy to use."
"The most valuable feature was the visual drag and drop on the components."
"The ability to give access to data that was previously maintained in a spreadsheet has really changed how the business operates."
"API and exact forms are the most valuable features."
"We can provide clean data in a matter of minutes rather than days or even weeks in some cases."
"The selecting process/apps/components which can be dynamically operated by an end user."
"QuickBase allowed us to rapidly build and deploy applications to automate and streamline our organization’s functional activities, and the tool allows me to manage my business by navigating through my dashboards, providing real-time analytics."
"It provides a well-organized method for overseeing everything, especially considering the remote work aspect."
"Quickbase allows quick and easy control of your data structures."
"QuickBase has allowed us to easily categorize these employees, workgroups, and work locations into separate tables and then relate them to one another for comprehensive reports."
 

Cons

"There was an attempt to enable front-end development, it did what it intended to do, but the side effects were too bad."
"I would improve the license structure as, for some companies, it may seem a little bit expensive, depending on what they're doing."
"The feature called "action chains" could use a bit of enhancement."
"The initial setup of Oracle VBCS can be challenging for those unfamiliar with DBS."
"There are some bugs in VBCS."
"The tool has minor bugs."
"My honest opinion is: do not use this solution — there are plenty of free options out there that will do the trick."
"If you're doing some, for example, extremely responsive applications for the web, it's not as good."
"The table size limits are small for really large apps."
"QuickBase offers a low-development platform for non-programmers."
"There are some clunky things about the options and interface, but they're working to improve them and are highly responsive to customer feedback."
"I would still like to see QuickBase use plain English for some of the features."
"The only thing I could complain about from QuickBase is when trying to piece together some complicated functionality into their software, it can sometimes be hard to review and troubleshoot issue with this and locate the problem areas."
"The ability to add our company branding."
"This takes time to do correctly for each application."
"The inability to pull custom query output on the fly from the rows of record and then using that interim output for another analytics is a headache in Quickbase."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Oracle Visual Builder Cloud Service is much too expensive."
"It's not expensive when you consider what it provides: low-code/no-code development, faster development time, good quality, and good stability."
"The product is cheap when compared to other products."
"The pricing for QuickBase is pretty straightforward, It is based on a per user/per month licensing fee."
"We felt the pricing and licensing for QuickBase were easy enough to understand, fair and competitive."
"The solution is expensive and geared toward enterprise-level clients."
"Quickbase is probably not the cheapest app out there. That said, it is worth its weight in gold. There is no other app that I know of in the market today that can do what Quickbase does."
"It is probably about 300 per license per person. There is just the licensing cost. There are no additional costs."
"The pricing for the tier my company used included ten seats and the subcontractor, amounting to approximately $18,000 USD per year."
"You have to negotiate the price because it varies based on the number of users you have, as well as how much cloud storage space you need."
