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

"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"QuickBase is an excellent product and it is very easy to get support."
"Technical support is really good, and I would rate it a nine out of ten."
"Creating applications in Quickbase will take, literally, a fraction of the time it would take to create them in other database applications (which shall remain unnamed)."
"We have made good use of the ability in QuickBase to add multiple apps for various departments and purposes, while some apps are shared."
"QuickBase has positively impacted my organization by resolving our purchase order and inventory management issues, helping us in revenue management and forecasting revenue, and making data-driven decisions easily while saving significant time and cost."
"It has superb ease of use and no code needed to create and build apps and databases."
"We use it a lot for creating workflows to transfer materials between plants, which is a signature part of what we do."
 

Cons

"The mobile app has improved, but it still needs work."
"I would like the product to add more working processes."
"It would be beneficial for the QuickBase team to focus on improving the integration of cloud-based storage platforms within their product. In use cases like ours, where QuickBase serves as a centralized source of truth for construction projects, having seamless integration with platforms like Dropbox or OneDrive would greatly enhance the product's capabilities."
"The product works constantly to modernize the platform and they have made quite a lot of strides in that. I would like them to add additional features that would help us make API calls."
"They could enhance the ability to link records between tables directly without the need for additional automation to increase space and time."
"Whenever we do onboarding, or we get new employees, there tends to be a delay of not just a week but a couple of weeks, and sometimes even a few weeks of being able to see certain new employees in the system."
"Its UI needs improvement. They should improve it and make it a little bit more modern. We should also be able to have more real-time information that connects with other software platforms. It has an open API, but it doesn't always connect with some of the other platforms that we would like to utilize. These are probably two of the biggest things for us, and hopefully, they will keep ensuring that in the future, they continually build QuickBase to be a little bit more efficient in that regard."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
"This solution needs to be more customizable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is probably about 300 per license per person. There is just the licensing cost. There are no additional costs."
"The product is cheap when compared to other products."
"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."
"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."
"The pricing for the tier my company used included ten seats and the subcontractor, amounting to approximately $18,000 USD per year."
"The pricing for QuickBase is pretty straightforward, It is based on a per user/per month licensing fee."
"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."
