It\u2019s easy to use so anyone can create custom, collaborative business applications with no coding knowledge needed. DIYers have built more than 3 million QuickBase applications since the platform launched in 2002.<\/p>\n<p>Intuit refreshed QuickBase to make it even easier to build and access apps with user experiences designed specifically for desktop computers, tablets and smartphones. A simplified design, enhanced search and reporting functionality, and a more intuitive navigation make QuickBase easier to learn and to use on desktop computers. A mobile version of QuickBase.com enables tablet users to create new or improve existing apps, and smartphone users to access their mobile business apps on the go.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-13291\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>A September 2012 survey from QuickBase found that information workers aren\u2019t satisfied with today\u2019s off-the-shelf options.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"bwlistitemmargb\">53 percent said they would build their own mobile app if they could do<br \/>\nso easily.<\/li>\n<li class=\"bwlistitemmargb\">33 percent of respondents said the mobile apps they\u2019re using are not<br \/>\ncurrently meeting their needs. Nearly all (95 percent) said they<br \/>\nobtained their mobile apps from IT or purchased them from an online<br \/>\napp store.<\/li>\n<li class=\"bwlistitemmargb\">76 percent cited the inability to write code or lack of approval from<br \/>\nIT as reasons that would keep them from developing their own apps.<\/li>\n<li class=\"bwlistitemmargb\">40 percent would build apps that serve business management and<br \/>\ncollaboration functions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cThe fast and accelerating pace of business today requires enterprise employees to work dynamically, solving problems as they surface, at times on the go,\u201d said Allison Mnookin, vice president and general manager of Intuit QuickBase. \u201cThey need tools that are easy to use, collaborative and help their teams get their jobs done faster. They need applications that solve their teams\u2019 unique workflows and that can flex, scale, and evolve as their needs morph.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMobile enterprise apps on the market today don\u2019t meet these needs well; they either solve problems with a one-size-fits-all approach or require IT resources to develop expensive custom solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>QuickBase solves this need by enabling DIYers to build applications once and deploy them across any desktop or mobile device. The QuickBase platform offers unique benefits that include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"bwlistitemmargb\">Empowering enterprise workers to build business apps on their own,<br \/>\nreducing the IT development backlog and reducing development cycles<br \/>\nfrom months to days.<\/li>\n<li class=\"bwlistitemmargb\">Providing hundreds of templates that solve problems instantly and<br \/>\njumpstart the solution for complex apps, making it easier to address<br \/>\nany business problem.<\/li>\n<li class=\"bwlistitemmargb\">Offering robust permission controls to determine who accesses or edits<br \/>\nspecific data or the application itself.<\/li>\n<li class=\"bwlistitemmargb\">Making app development collaborative and iterative so teams can modify<br \/>\ntheir work to meet their evolving needs.<\/li>\n<li class=\"bwlistitemmargb\">Interconnecting QuickBase apps to bring data together in one place,<br \/>\nimproving productivity and the quality of business insights, while<br \/>\nreducing high costs associated with managing a patchwork of solutions<br \/>\nfrom different providers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cOur business lives in QuickBase,\u201d said Will Wieder, chief information officer of Ministry Health Care in Appleton, Wisc. \u201cWe manage everything from meeting agendas to plans to IT projects across thousands of QuickBase applications.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s our personal Swiss Army knife. QuickBase prepares us to address the changing needs of our teams\u2019 work with custom solutions. The new mobile capability helps traveling members of the team stay productive, especially those who have ditched their PCs in favor of iPads and other mobile devices.\u201din the United States and other countries.<\/p>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\" style=\"margin-top: 10px; height: 15px;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"border: none; float: right;\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/pixy.gif?x-id=edc7ae0f-f380-4af1-9145-da420f36180d\" alt=\"\" \/><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/vCskoYiQTfd6O7TM3nPs2DKwE1A\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/vCskoYiQTfd6O7TM3nPs2DKwE1A\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/vCskoYiQTfd6O7TM3nPs2DKwE1A\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/vCskoYiQTfd6O7TM3nPs2DKwE1A\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/CloudNewsDaily\/~4\/BNUh9Kxpx6w\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do-it-yourself Workers Create Productivity Apps That Deploy on Any        Device     MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.&#8211;(BUSINESS WIRE)&#8211;QuickBase has hit the road.
