Reliable, user-driven platform, that is scalable

I would highly recommend working closely with QuickBase and taking advantage of their subcontractors who specialize in building QuickBase apps. QuickBase does a great job of connecting potential users with these subcontractors. However, I would also advise tempering expectations and being aware that building and customizing applications in QuickBase takes time. It is a user-driven platform, so it requires investment and effort to create meaningful solutions. I would rate QuickBase a ten out of ten. I believe that if implemented properly, QuickBase can provide immense value to any organization. It can be used for various purposes such as managing purchase orders, tracking change orders, and monitoring project metrics. By using QuickBase as a central hub, it becomes a reliable and trustworthy source for project-related information. This ability to consolidate and organize data makes it an invaluable tool. Moreover, any solution that helps transform information from individual knowledge into a structured database is undoubtedly a worthwhile investment.

Helps us establish system front-end and back-end connectivity, but the recruiting features need improvement

I used UKG to track applicants and create job descriptions. We built the electronic onboarding system to be used nationwide and created a path to integrate with the backend The product's most valuable feature is the ability to establish connectivity between the front and the back end,…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Considering factors like functionality and price, the product proves to be worth the investment."

"The reporting tool: It helps in data analytics to provide the solution more efficiency."

"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."

"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."

"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 superb ease of use and no code needed to create and build apps and databases."

"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."

"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."

More QuickBase pros

"It enables us to manage the system ourselves. We don't need an additional team to do a lot of maintenance and add the things that we want."

"The solution's employee experience is pretty good."

"It is much easier to use and the customer service is better than our previous solution."

"The setup process is straightforward."

"The product's most valuable feature is the ability to establish connectivity between the front and the back end, particularly the single point of data entry, to minimize mistakes."

"The pay policies and approvals are valuable features."

"We use the tool for various functions, including payroll, HR, recruiting, onboarding, and workforce management. We've implemented all these modules across all the clients I've worked with."

"The most valuable feature is being able to get time management reports which break out reclassified jobs and departments to separate areas of the company. This allows for better tracking of hours spent in certain jobs and where more hours may be needed."

More UKG pros

Cons

"I would like to see the reporting enhanced because some of them are not easy to generate."

"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."

"The improved developer interface in some areas can be difficult to use for complex items."

". 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."

"Whenever we do onboarding, or we get new employees, there tends to be a delay of not just a week but a couple of weeks, and sometimes even a few weeks of being able to see certain new employees in the system."

"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."

"It would be beneficial for the QuickBase team to focus on improving the integration of cloud-based storage platforms within their product. In use cases like ours, where QuickBase serves as a centralized source of truth for construction projects, having seamless integration with platforms like Dropbox or OneDrive would greatly enhance the product's capabilities."

"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."

More QuickBase cons

"The platform's features need enhancement while being used as a recruiting tool."

"The solution could improve by simplifying it even more core reports, such as more sample reports, more generic reports that you can edit and improve on yourself."

"The navigation on the screen could be better. Sometimes, I have to dig a little bit deep to find what I need. Everything is there. It just needs to be a little bit smoother."

"Since UKG is a SaaS software, other parts of the application or add-on solutions are not the best in class or very configurable."

"Reporting is always a hurdle for any user just because it is so extensive. They provide a lot of out-of-the-box reports, but it is something that you always need to work on because you need more advanced writing of reports."

"The system is slow sometimes."

"I would like the capability to use UKG as a single platform without the need to alternate between systems."

"Certainly, the time and attendance and the payroll integration need a lot of work. They are disjointed pieces, and they don't work smoothly together. That's the main drawback."

More UKG cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing for QuickBase is pretty straightforward, It is based on a per user/per month licensing fee."

"It is probably about 300 per license per person. There is just the licensing cost. There are no additional costs."

"The pricing for the tier my company used included ten seats and the subcontractor, amounting to approximately $18,000 USD per year."

"The solution is expensive and geared toward enterprise-level clients."

"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."

"The product is cheap when compared to other products."

"We felt the pricing and licensing for QuickBase were easy enough to understand, fair and competitive."

"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 platform is not affordable but also not the most expensive."

"I wasn't involved in the pricing part. I'm a user, and I believe it is based on the user count. One thing that is nice about Ultimate is that you can learn how to use the system without additional fees. The learning aspect is the life of a product, and the training was a huge reason why we went with Ultimate. We did have some integration costs. They were a part of the implementation because of the integrations to other systems that we included in our implementation."

"The pricing depends on the number of licenses we buy."

"While I am unsure of the licensing cost itself, the total cost of implementation and licensing for a company with over 5000 employees would be around 6,00,000. So, there are additional costs beyond licensing."

"If you're going for the full suite, it can be fairly pricey."

"UKG's pricing and licensing model involves ongoing expenses based on the number of employees paid. The initial implementation cost is low when UKG implements it directly. However, when partners handle the implementation, it becomes more expensive since partners don't receive the monthly recurring fees."
