I use it for. browser based systems for my own clients It's configured to make it very quick to build feature-rich systems. The only issue I would say is that they develop updates very quickly that are hard to keep up with. I have been using Alpha Anywhere for thirty years. It's stable, set up…

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's very flexible."
"Once you get through the learning curve, you can do a lot with it."
"The most valuable feature of QuickBase is its dynamic form capabilities. These forms allow backend automation, making tasks like updating data based on specific conditions much easier."
"One of the valuable features of Quick Base is its ability to function as a content management system without the need for SQL."
"QuickBase has created a level of efficiency within the company that has not only reduced time on task, but has also increased accuracy."
"No coding is required."
"The selecting process/apps/components which can be dynamically operated by an end user."
"It provides a well-organized method for overseeing everything, especially considering the remote work aspect."
"QuickBase has positively impacted my organization by allowing business level resources without significant technical experience to create workflows and databases when our IT resources are limited."
"Great, easy to use product."
 

Cons

"The stability of Alpha Anywhere could improve, especially from version to version. There have been several complaints that they should conduct more testing before releasing a version."
"It can be slow to develop, and it's repetitive."
"Documentation of how to customize beyond the basics is very difficult to find."
"Make more programming options for advanced users."
"There were only a few users who knew how to create the different modules or integrate them, so I think an easy-to-understand training program would help in more adoption of QuickBase."
"I do not know if QuickBase has these capabilities because I only participated in building out the flow, the form, and the process flow, but it would be helpful, as someone who would manage the form and the process flow, to build out charts or live dashboards or something similar so people can get information right there of how many requests are submitted and how many are pending to be approved."
"The user interface of Quick Base is complex."
"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."
"Technical support is OK. However, it is much better to work with qualified service personnel who understand your specific implementations and process goals."
"I would still like to see QuickBase use plain English for some of the features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is mid-range.We pay only for the subscription."
"Prices vary, and they will enter into different contracts with different people."
"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."
"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."
"The product is cheap when compared to other products."
"It is probably about 300 per license per person. There is just the licensing cost. There are no additional costs."
"We felt the pricing and licensing for QuickBase were easy enough to understand, fair and competitive."
"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."
