Build custom enterprise-grade applications that are both internal and public-facing with unlimited users, custom domains, website embeddable apps, and true white labelling. All with Tadabase, the best Quickbase alternative.
Top 5 reasons why customers switch from Quickbase to Tadabase
1. Tadabase creates stunning, public-facing applications
While Quickbase can be used to create basic applications for internal, back-office processes, it lacks the features necessary to create beautiful, custom, consumer-facing applications. This renders Quickbase ineffective and out-dated for the modern business that wants the freedom to create an application that is both internal and public-facing. With custom domains, website embeddable applications, and the ability to customize and truly white label your apps, Tadabase creates powerful, enterprise-grade database applications that power the most complex internal processes and are also uniquely stunning and visually engaging for public view.
2. Tadabase’s infrastructure is SQL-backed
With it’s all-powerful SQL-backed infrastructure, Tadabase was built from the ground up with scalability and limitless growth at the forefront of the platform’s design. No other infrastructure compares to the power and scale of SQL, which is why applications built on Tadabase can scale to millions of records seamlessly and in record time.
3. Tadabase does not charge per user
Like many other no-code platforms on the market today, Quickbase utilizes an old-school per-user pricing structure, which is impractical and counterproductive for most modern, growing businesses. This traditional user-based pricing model sets an immediate cap on company collaboration and growth right out of the gate, and it discourages business owners from inviting all stakeholders to collaborate on a single source of truth. Tadabase, on the other hand, adopts a usage-based pricing structure, which encourages the inclusion of any and all users who may contribute to the data at work and contribute to your business growth.
4. Tadabase apps can be white labeled, for real
While Quickbase claims to offer white-label apps, Quickbase’s information will still appear throughout its customers’ app codes and URLs, disabling customers from ever having truly custom or white-labeled apps. At Tadabase, when we say that our apps are customizable, we mean what we say. A white labeled app on Tadabase will have zero mention of Tadabase throughout the app code, URL, or design, allowing your consumer-facing app to present entirely as your own or your app built for a client to present entirely as if you built it from scratch.
5. Tadabase is customizable
At Tadabase, we know your business is like no other and that your app should reflect your particular business brand and style. From custom login forms to drag and drop themes to over two dozen unique components, including the Custom Component which empowers you to create your own custom designs, your app design is limited only to your imagination. Gone are the days of sticking square data in round views. With Tadabase, the custom app you envision is just waiting to be built.
