Quickbase vs Onshape: Which is a better fit?

Joseph S.: Hi, my name's Josh. I'm a senior database consultant. I work for the Data Collaborative. I also have an offshoot, teachquickbase.com. And I've been doing Quickbase for 20-plus years. And I give it a five out of five. We're a consulting agency. We work with hundreds of clients. We solve everything from workflow management to quality control to operations, financial, CRM. It's just there's a lot of different things that we have to solve for customers. The fact that it can solve just about anything. And also that it's a lot easier to use than a full stack situation where you got to have an FTP client and you got to have database tools and you got to have an ID. This is all in a web browser, and it is something that people who are in the client company, not on the tech team, can actually learn to use. And because they're either into quality control team or they're in the finance team or admin, they can learn how to use it. And that's probably the biggest value, is actually having somebody who's in a role of the active running of the company, designing Quickbase, and working with me to help perfect the tools for their users. So the first thing I said about, it solves everything. You really can use Quickbase for anything. That is a hard thing for some people, when they open it up, they don't exactly know where to start because it's a blank slate. But for me, I mean, I've been doing this for 20 years and I just start a discussion with the client, "Okay, what are you trying to do?" And we just work on it and they eventually get the idea that they can do anything and that it's not that hard to start from ground zero and go up.

Speaker 1: My name is Joao. I'm a mechatronics engineering student at Ontario Tech University. We have more than 1000 employees, and I give five stars to Onshape. We are from Ontario Tech University, we use Onshape for projects and labs to do CAD design. We can actually use different people, they can collaborate at same time and we can join the same project, and by doing that, we can finish early and have a better project. Sometimes it lags when five people are trying to do the project at the same time, it's just kind of lagging and these kinds of problem.
