Empowers content management and application creation without SQL
What is our primary use case?
I use Quick Base for management purposes. It functions as a content management system that does not require SQL. It allows me to store data, publish pages, and operates as a single-point solution for a no-code, low-code platform.
One of my projects involved creating applications for patients, where forms and pages can be created using different languages like React, with data stored in Quick Base.
What is most valuable?
One of the valuable features of Quick Base is its ability to function as a content management system without the need for SQL. It allows for storing data, publishing pages, and is a no-code, low-code platform.
I used it for patient applications, with forms and pages created in different languages such as React. I can view everything in one place on the Quick Base site. This provides a unified solution without needing different databases or pipelines.
What needs improvement?
The user interface of Quick Base is complex. It can be difficult to navigate, and ideally, it should be simplified to facilitate use by anyone, not just certified individuals.
There is room for improvement in front-end functionalities. I cannot deploy and use front-end features anywhere; they must be deployed inside Quick Base.
The introduction of hooks would allow for easier deployment elsewhere, such as GitHub. Additionally, their APIs have limitations, such as reliance on XML for backend APIs, which restricts their utility.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been working with Quick Base for two to three years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I would rate the stability of the solution as eight out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Quick Base has high potential to scale, and I would rate its scalability at nine out of ten.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support is really good, and I would rate it a nine out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I was previously working with OpenNebula and have now switched to a different vendor.
How was the initial setup?
The setup process is moderate, not simple, and it requires a quick walkthrough of the entire system. A technical person who has experienced a walkthrough can work on it.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Pricing could be cheaper. I rate it around a seven out of ten. Mainly larger companies use it, which influences the pricing structure.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
A main competitor for Quick Base is Salesforce, along with other low-code, no-code platforms.
What other advice do I have?
I prefer Quick Base for its functionality. It allows front-end creation, exposes backend APIs, and doesn't require a separate database.
Overall, I rate the product an eight out of ten, and I can recommend it to others.
As for AI integration, initially, there was no AI use two years ago, however, now some aspects are being integrated. They're exploring how to improve AI on the platform. I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud
Great for many use cases - could run more smoothly
What do you like best about the product?
I like that my team members that aren't famliar with operating databases are able to easily use custom dashboards and create reports. The similarities to industry standard tools like Microsoft Excel make it easy for non-technical experts to get the information they need.
What do you dislike about the product?
It seems that the team is falling into the all-too-common trap of adding AI enabled bells and whistles while some of its basic features fall short. I very basic problem that I CONSISTENTLY have is form fields not pulling information from related tables seamlessly. The automations are also a bit clunky and the UI could be more intuitive. I would suggest prioritizing regression testing and makings existing features better rather than adding features that have fewer use cases.

What do you like best about the product?
I like how flexible Quickbase is when it comes to customizing it to your specific needs. Once your app is built and functional, adding features and options and reports is really easy and is a quick learn. I use it everyday and have rolled it to various teams in my company, and my team loves it cause its easy to see where projects or requests stand at that moment in time.
What do you dislike about the product?
You do need to have some degree of coding/development experience to get the Pipelines features to work properly and to get the most out of it. But once you see how it works from the inside, its easy to figure out how to get what you want.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its helping me keep track of all the image requests for my company and for our website. Its helpful to see where specific requests are and all the details, so that if I have questions, I know who to talk to.

I am Revenue Analyst with over 8 years of experience and using quick base for more than 6 years.
What do you like best about the product?
I love the dashboard feature. It has made preparing multiple reports so much easier for me. I can easily use filters and pipelines to pull in data from other applications. The quick access to data and how easily I can sort it truly makes this app perfect for my needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometime find it difficult to intigrate Quickbase with other app that I am using currently. Eg. I use cloud ERP cloud ( SQL ) which I find difficult to integrate in it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I often faced challenges preparing multiple reports manually every day, it was really time-consuming and tedious. Quickbase allowed me to create all reports on a single Dashboard screen using various filters in the background. Downloading a CSV file and copy-pasting those details in the mail saved me a lot of time.
It was good but not the best

It's got a lot of data, lots and lots of data
