Reviews of Quickbase
Quickbase helps us design websites without coding
Comments: Quickbase is a useful tool for solving common business problems, such as inventory management, because it facilitates the rapid creation of applications that are compatible with all display and mobile device sizes.
Pros:
All of our previous issues with program administration and data tracking have been eliminated by using Quickbase. Our operations and sales teams can now work together more effectively than ever before thanks to the applications we developed for them.
Cons:
The sole drawback of Quickbase is that it requires you to use their own proprietary formulas. Finding what you're looking for and double-checking your UI usage is going to take a little more time. Having an in-house resource with coding experience has been a huge boon.

Cons:
For customer facing end, enterprise has to rely on programmers and there will be some learning curve.
Buyers beware
Comments: It started off great. Seemed like a very trust worthy company. Within the last two years a lot of changes have been within QuickBase business model. They made new pricing models that they are forcing many of their customers to leave or pay an astronomical price increase. This is also hurting their vendors that integrate with QuickBase.
Pros:
The initial ease of use and setup. Anytime you needed help they use to be always there and help you in any way.
Cons:
Every year another price increase. In the beginning they have your pricing start off very low. They make it so you integrate your entire system to use QuickBase. Once you have been with them for years they then increase your pricing anywhere from 275% to 1,600%.
Quickbase maintenance tracking
Comments: Easy to use maintenance tracking features and purchase order generating features.
Pros:
I liked the log book and maintenance log feature of the app.
Cons:
When adding a vendor to our database, it takes quite sometime for the vendor to populate in the purchase order section, unless our admin manually refreshes the vendor list.
My personal experience with Quickbase
Comments: Despite some minor drawbacks, I highly recommend Quick Base for its versatility and ability to adapt to diverse business needs.
Pros:
Quick Base offers customizable database applications, rapid development, cloud accessibility, scalability, integration capabilities, security, and automation, enhancing organizational efficiency.

Quick Base drawbacks include cost, learning curve, customization limitations, internet dependency, vendor lock-in, security concerns, and potential performance issues.
