Find out in this report how the two Rapid Application Development Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The initial setup is very simple."
"I like the galleries, which are really powerful."
"The product has good usability, in terms of low-code applications."
"The scalability is good."
"When compared with Microsoft Power Automate, it is a bit more mature, and we're able to build things pretty rapidly."
"It offers integration with several Microsoft products, including SharePoint and Outlook, in my opinion, is a huge plus."
"The solution is excellent at figuring how to build an application in three months. It makes it very quick and easy."
"The most valuable feature is the compatibility with other Microsoft components."
"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."
"It has superb ease of use and no code needed to create and build apps and databases."
"QuickBase reminds me when a software license or a hardware support contract is near expiration so that I can initiate our company's procurement process in time and not miss a deadline."
"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"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."
"Considering factors like functionality and price, the product proves to be worth the investment."
"We have made good use of the ability in QuickBase to add multiple apps for various departments and purposes, while some apps are shared."
"I run my own business and the solution allows me to invoice and pay for additional resources. It has helped me in terms of invoicing, quoting, and doing recruitment measures."
"One area where the solution lacks is the limited size of the database it offers its users."
"One of the major problems with it is what PowerApps calls the delegation warning. Regardless of what platform, data source, et cetera, that you're using, you can't retrieve more than 2000 records."
"In some cases, PowerApps would have some limitations in terms of the data, the number of transactions, and so on, but for a normal solution, it would be enough."
"Microsoft PowerApps can be more costly for small teams or organizations."
"This tool doesn't have an internal database. It only relies on the data layer of Microsoft Cloud."
"The portal and canvas apps need to be improved and brought up to speed."
"The flexibility of the user interface could be better."
"PowerApps is still a bit new compared to a slightly more mature product such as OutSystems."
"I would like to see the reporting enhanced because some of them are not easy to generate."
"When learning QuickBase, I noticed a shift in its cost structure. It operated on a cost-efficient model tied to the number of users, with invoicing based on applicants."
"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"The dashboard is not organized."
"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."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
"I would like to see better options for producing paper reports from Quick Base, rather than viewing things exclusively on screen."
