Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Oracle and others in Infrastructure as a Service Clouds (IaaS)."The automated connectors to some of our critical enterprise systems are an important feature. These are very large, critical, global HCM systems."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the limitless possibilities of the infrastructure."
"The solution has proven to be quite stable so far."
"There are many useful features. We use web apps, so instead of starting a web server, we just have machines running some web services. This was helpful for us in terms of the scalability of the application. We also use Active Directory for authentication and some services for the data backup. It is a very good and reliable solution. It was easy to implement this solution. It fits very well into our plans and covers our needs to provide infrastructure in the cloud. The portal to configure new resources is very easy, and it is very easy to allocate new resources."
"I think Azure's level of automation to achieve efficiency or agility is valuable. I also like the change capability cadence, the showback capabilities, and understanding what our costs are."
"The most valuable features are the interface and customizability."
"Managed storage capabilities, which create a very simple way to create, copy, and replicate local or geo-replicate, it's very simple to assign workloads."
"Feedback and error messages make much more sense in Azure than in AWS."
"It has helped streamline and simply track status and collection of data from suppliers and other internal departments."
"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."
"The need for little to no code knowledge has been huge."
"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."
"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 reporting tool: It helps in data analytics to provide the solution more efficiency."
"This solution has provided for Rapid deployment of data collection tools, replacing spreadsheets with near real-time data."
"The level of authorization or authorization cascading can be improved. We have the most powerful admins and then we have sub-admins, but the level of authorization is not that easy to handle or manage."
"Microsoft Azure is not always a user-friendly solution. There are too many people who develop this solution. For the end-users, sometimes it's not really fun to use or simple to use. It could be improved."
"The biggest area needing improvement involves the licensing cost."
"Technical support could be better. They need to be more responsive."
"The solution could be easier to use. However, when comparing it to AWS it is a bit easier."
"The Azure Billing API could be so much better. It only provides billing metrics for a set duration."
"We need more customization and support for doing so."
"Maybe Microsoft could improve its monitoring around the networking."
"There is room for improvement in terms of user-friendliness."
"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."
"Third-party integration -- they are working on it and I find their brand-new still-in-beta Webhooks very promising."
"They could enhance the ability to link records between tables directly without the need for additional automation to increase space and time."
"I would like to see better options for producing paper reports from Quick Base, rather than viewing things exclusively on screen."
"The mobile app has improved, but it still needs work."
"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."
"I would like the product to add more working processes."
