What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Used primarily as a data collection tool and where we setup our data structure
Great tool for keeping all project notes in one place
What do you like best about the product?
I love being able to keep all of my project and campaign notes conveniently in one location, and accessible by other team members. Quickbase has been effective in combining a number of other resources we had to use to track projects - ProWorkFlow, Harvest, etc. - in one easy to use tool. I also appreciate being able to quickly find campaigns and programs based on "budget owner"/user, as well as create personalized reports based on criteria I pick (ex. "my 2018 projects within this market").
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the query-based filtering for reports takes some time to learn and set up effectively. I also wish there was a way to more easily change details, like budget owners.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
-Keeping all information on a program in one central location - allowing multiple users to access the record and add time, details, etc.
-Being able to add time in toward a program specifically, making margins easier to determine for our financial department
-More efficient reporting - Being able to pull high-level reports based on specific criteria

Quickbase is a good system for website workorders
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Quickbase will track all the conversations between the person working on the work order and me. It also is nice that I could attach screenshots and files.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to have more than five uploads allowed with my entry. As a user filling out the forms I do find some orders are difficult to track the thread of responses and what has been done.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me to save space in my inbox and keep all the tickets organized. Quickbase is an excellent program to list my to-do that day quickly and keeps me on track to complete all my tasks.

The few times a year the servers go down.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it to keep track of customers and end to end disposition of customer relationships, referrals.
Very difficult to maneuver at first
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can make a report and it saves it so I can use the same one each month without having to modify my filters each time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how it isn't very user friendly. There are a lot of things I can't figure out why it doesn't match my other reports.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It makes it easy to run a report on all of my facilities and export it to excel
We use QB for all our internal office project management.
What do you like best about the product?
For me I like QuickBase because it is a full project management software. It has all your invoicing buttons such as PO's, Payables, Invoice status etc... We also use it as our internal ticketing system to know which stores we are visiting for repairs.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not really much I dislike at all. Everything is very customizable so anytime there was a feature I could have used QuickBase usually had it available in code.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's beneficial because it's a one stop solution for us. Customers send us a ticket, we create it in the system, we track it in the system, we can assign reps to it, we can close it out, create the invoice and anything else all with this one program.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try! If you're using many other platforms or software for different aspects of your business I would recommend trying out QuickBase. It's very nice to have everything consolidated into 1 app. Very customizable so you can get the look and feel that you desire.

The best low-code solution I have tried, but lacks an international language protocol
What do you like best about the product?
Quickbase is an easily learning and trustworthy low-code platform for development of applications. Quickbase provides learning material and has a wide base of users that publish solutions for daily problems in blogs and in youtube. They have also a prompt support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lacks of an international language protocol, therefore, all the data using portuguese, french and spanish caracters like: ç, è, é, ã etc will be messed when you try to sync data between tables and gmail. The lack of an affordable customer portal is something that really bother us: if your company would like to provide access to your customers/clients in a controled area (with login and password) Quickbase will charge you 15 ou 25 dolars for every user (even if they are only view users).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been using Quickbase for more than six months and have developed it so far: a contact database for our company, a CRM for our sales team and an application for control and verification of electric bills, which also provides efficiency indicators. We also create processes (BPM) to make our applications work together and synchronized.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Like many others plataforms you can try before buying. If you are looking for a Low-code development, you have to consider Quickbase. Brazilians, portuguese, spanish and french fellows: you will face problems with non-english caracters (like ç, é, ã etc.).
Easy to build apps
What do you like best about the product?
Quick to make stuff (once you learn how). Easy to customize. Affordable.
What do you dislike about the product?
OMG, where do I start...
#1 most annoying thing: Cannot write data to a reference field. In other words, you can view parent table data in a child table, but you can't edit/write data from the child table view back into the parent. It is SOOOOO annoying to the user experience. Just fix that, and you'll save years and years of wasted clicking by users as they navigate up the table chain to find where the data lives.
#2 most annoying thing. Doesn't have a really responsive search (sometimes if there are too many records, it actually gives you a pop-up window to select the record from). WTF? Seriously? There needs to be some kind of super-fast auto-fill guessing like when one types in the search box of so many other websites.
#3, There's little flexibility with visual look & feel.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asset management, process tracking, CRM, data hosting for other web services (using the QB API).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give yourself a month to learn it. Look at other solutions. Once you start building apps, the switching cost is high.
