Quickbase the Wonder Tool
What do you like best about the product?
You can build almost anything natively with Quickbase from project management to inventory management to customer management. Quickbase allows our company to work in the unique way that it does as opposed to making our business model fit in an out-of-box software. Our company uses multiple applications every day. We can create solutions and roll them out within a day.
What do you dislike about the product?
Quickbase could do better with having training material and information available when new developments are launched.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quickbase helps us to share data in real-time, avoiding conflicting spreadsheets of information. It also allows our field teams to manage their work without having to be connected to our network or any other. The information that anyone wants is within the palm of their hand most of the time.
Lots of Potential
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that it is relatively easy to navigate for non-technical users. In addition, it allows new users to slowly begin to understand the nature of relational tables, and generally, methods for storing data.
In addition, the customer support is fairly good. Every time I reach out to them, even if the answer is disappointing, they get back to me relatively quickly.

What do you dislike about the product?
The arbitrary limits in place. For example, the limit of 3 report formulas, summary formulas, 1000 records on a graph. There seem to always be new limits that are in place that I have to build custom solutions for (example: PDF viewer). Also, specifically in graphing there tend to be strange limits: trend lines, point shapes, style of charts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's solving the problem of relating parent data to children data, and making those connections easy to understand, and fairly straightforward to visualize. I //think// Quickbase is headed in the right place, but sometimes it feels more clunky and archaic (ex. Jinja) than other low-code platforms. The latest additions of the new UI help though. Headed in the right direction, but would be better if things were moving more quickly. And more of the support requests were actually fullfilled.
Years of use - getting better in time
What do you like best about the product?
I think there are a lot of good options within this platform. They have been focusing on upgrading the technology with AI and other options to make a cleaner approach. We utilize different options within this platform, including our primary reporting database, project management, among others. The tools have become easier to use over time. More recently the support team has become helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
My first thought is the customer support. Over years of use, we have had numerous CSMs, Account Managers, etc...many of which were non-responsive, unsupportive, and in many cases difficult to work with. While that had gotten better in 2022-2023, it fell off again in 2024. It's a revovlving door of people who don't seem to know much about our account. There's no one to reach out to check in or provide updates on new products or tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently, it provides our entire reporting database. We upgraded this over the past couple of years with better dashboards. It's still a little clunky, but it's progressing. The Project Management platform has not been as successful. We hope that with upgrades, this will allow us to better manage our projects in a more streamlined fashion. It's been a struggle to adapt to the use as the process of adding and creating within the project management piece is somewhat manual.
Single Source of Truth to Help our projects
What do you like best about the product?
From an administrative standpoint, I love the ease of use and flexibility of customization. From a project standpoint, I love that the whole team can see the same data real time.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a little clunky at times. And it isn't intuitive for some of our team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I understand they are updating some of the interfaces to be more user-friendly. This should help our teams be able to get into the system and begin adding content much faster.
Empowering Efficiency and Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Quickbase has revolutionized our workflow management and collaboration processes. The platform's flexibility is its standout feature, allowing us to design and customize applications tailored to our specific needs. The intuitive drag-and-drop interface, combined with a robust set of pre-built templates, significantly accelerated our application development. The real-time collaboration features and robust reporting tools have fostered transparency and boosted team productivity. Quickbase's scalability is impressive, seamlessly accommodating our growing business requirements without sacrificing performance. The responsive customer support has also been a valuable resource, ensuring we maximize the platform's potential.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Quickbase offers a plethora of features, the learning curve for more advanced functionalities can be steep for new users. Enhanced training resources or tutorials could mitigate this challenge. Additionally, the pricing structure, while reflective of the platform's capabilities, might be a deterrent for smaller businesses. Some integration options could also be expanded to cover a broader range of third-party tools. Despite these minor drawbacks, the overall benefits and efficiencies gained from using Quickbase far outweigh these considerations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quickbase has been instrumental in solving several critical challenges within our organization. One of the primary benefits is the elimination of manual, time-consuming tasks through workflow automation. This has not only saved us a significant amount of time but has also reduced the risk of errors associated with manual data entry.
Perfect Custom Solution For Inventory Management
What do you like best about the product?
The customization is the best feature for our company's very specific needs, something that most off the shelf solutions don't offer. Also very much appreciate the UX / UI.
What do you dislike about the product?
Custom design can be costly & time consuming
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing our inventory & logistics in a clean, organized fashion has benefitted our company greatly. This has dramatically increased worker efficiency & cut down on errors / mistakes.
Perfect solution!
What do you like best about the product?
Quickbase has provided our team with an easy to use platform to track our production. The best part is the fact that if you can think of how you want a report, you can probably create it! Any questions I did have on how to make something work is easily searched or I could reach out to customer support and get help easily. We use this program every day with multiple users and have never had an issue. The initial set up was extremely easy, espicially using a template. It is now part of our every-day function and a key component of our operations.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wasn't able to create custom work schedules to create shop schedule (ie: four 10 hour shifts vs. five 8 hour days). Not the main reason we needed this solution, so definitely not a deal breaker.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of our shop production, customer contracts and shipping. It gives us one place to easily input, update and track status of all projects and customer order functions.
Great Customizeable Option For Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to customize to fit our business need as a project management software. We rely heavily ability to link tables of information together and Quickbase knocks that out of the park. Support team and sales team were and have been helpful over the years.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pipelines have been a bit hitchy but work decently to automate tasks and information workflows. A tad pricey for super small businesses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to house key information for our organization- project info, financial snapshots, customer information, etc.
