Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Atlassian, Nutanix and others in Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Suites."Offers a common language set so we can bring people into projects and get them up and running almost immediately."
"We can integrate a lot of tools with the solution."
"We have not encountered difficulties with the scalability."
"JIRA stores history of changes, which helps a lot to track who, when, and why the issue was modified."
"The most valuable feature of Jira is the reporting feature, which allows us to track our team's tasks."
"Scaling the product wouldn't be difficult."
"Transparency of development projects, as well as approval processes for some business projects, has improved massively."
"Perfect for keeping track of large amounts of bugs, tasks queries and releases for fixes."
"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"There's a lot of stability in QuickBase...I really appreciate the processing part of QuickBase, especially considering how we're able to get information in real time instead of having to wait."
"I am impressed with the product's automation which makes everything easy."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"The reporting tool: It helps in data analytics to provide the solution more efficiency."
"It is low-code. We are able to go in and create apps quickly. It is very helpful for the size of our company. We're a mid-size company, and at this moment, we don't need anything externally. We don't have to go out and consult a consulting firm to build something from the ground up. So, the ease of that and being able to get development quickly up and running has been good for us."
"It provides a well-organized method for overseeing everything, especially considering the remote work aspect."
"The usability of QuickBase largely depends on how you design your workflows within the platform. If you keep them simple and straightforward, it can be a highly usable product."
"So at one point in time, they did a huge UI upgrade. At that time, I felt like they had changed something, so it was hard to figure out. Now that we are habituated, it's not an issue now."
"My main concern is the administration of projects, especially user groups, and this requires root access rights but there is no concept of layered admin rights."
"Could offer an improved user experience."
"There are a limited number of gadgets accessible in Jira; thus, additional ones should be supported."
"We have gone through several version changes and some of those changes have not been intuitive. There was a learning curve and we had some complaints internally about the changes, such as the new interface."
"The way to configure it can definitely be improved. It is very difficult and complex to configure. Its configuration should be simplified."
"Although it covers the overall requirements and measurements, it'll help if they had their own test execution feature."
"Workflows can be improved. We don't use workflows because we can't handle that much complexity. Its interface could be more intuitive for workflows."
"I would like the product to add more working processes."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"I would like to see better options for producing paper reports from Quick Base, rather than viewing things exclusively on screen."
"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."
"Access to more standard default layouts and sample builds would be useful, and access to more training on use and flexibility."
"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."
". For example, we need a third-party to create and save a document in PDF, MS Word, or MS Excel format. The document saving capability is probably the feature that we most often have to procure from an outside provider."
