We performed a comparison between OutSystems and QuickBase based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 most valuable features of OutSystems are the user-friendly platform. The drag-and-drop feature is great. I have used other rapid application development tools before, but they were not as advanced as OutSystems. With the previous tools, I had to manually build certain features, but OutSystems does it automatically."
"It is a stable solution."
"I find it to be a genuinely cool and effective platform for my development needs."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it allows users to easily build applications."
"Scalability proved to be an exceptionally beneficial feature."
"We have no complaints surrounding both the scalability and stability of this solution."
"The tool makes the development process easier."
"The technical support is perfect."
"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 has superb ease of use and no code needed to create and build apps and databases."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"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."
"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."
"Allows users have anytime/anywhere access."
"Considering factors like functionality and price, the product proves to be worth the investment."
"The product is easy to use."
"We have performance issues while fetching bulk data."
"The integration Studio could be improved. It needs a tool in which we could develop C# code and then integrate into OutSystems. The application could have a better UI."
"The solution's testing framework needs to be improved, and the workflow should be slightly more mature."
"The documentation needs to be more robust."
"There is room for improvement in technical support."
"The dashboards in OutSystems could improve. There are a lot of tabs in the service center that can be confusing."
"We'd like OutSystems to add stronger workflow-based automation similar to what Appian offers. It needs more workflow modeling and RPA features."
"There are not enough resources on the market."
"The mobile app has improved, but it still needs work."
"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."
"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."
"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."
"Unfortunately, there is still no new report formatting available natively, and would still require 3rd party developers to help with that. ."
"This rule: The Maximum is 60 rules. We need to provide more in order to improve."
"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."
