Can QuickBase give us any/all filtering for user permissions?

Interesting that you say that about User Voice. What do you know about that? Insider information or just an opinion? Are they shifting to something else? It looks fully operational to me, although that doesn't mean their developers are actually caring about it. One of the main reasons I left Salesforce for QuickBase was the fact that they would come out with 3 new platform updates each year, and nothing they did was ever helpful to me, and nothing I voted for ever got touched. I posted something 7 years ago on their user request forum that was hit-you-over-the-head-obvious that they needed to do, and people are still piling onto it and voting for it today, and they will never do anything about it. Sad. I hope QuickBase keeps pushing on the development and fixing some of these naggy holes in the platform and really listening to us.

About half & half.  Some from conversations at Empower and some from just observations.

For example:

The 3 items they have listed as "planned" (i.e. They are going to implement them), have already been implemented over 6 months ago, and have not been updated.

That tells me that (1) nobody is monitoring it and (2) of the 500+ requests in there they haven't done anything in 6+ months.  Generally speaking there have been little to no updates from the QB staff in 6+ months. So either they are stuck in Boston traffic still, or they just don't care.

Also, when was the last time you saw somebody from QB actually contribute to the community or moderate any of the discussions.  Its the Wild West out in Citizen Development Land.

I would love to understand why software business models almost universally seem to deemphasize communication and responsiveness to user feedback and requests for platform features. Maybe I'm naive and don't understand their business, but in our business (website development and internet marketing) the relationship with the client is paramount. Our clients will go elsewhere if we stop listening or have a tin ear or don't make good in a reasonable amount of time on our implied promises. Perhaps software development companies think that the stickiness of the platform assures that they can somewhat skip the communication step. I think they are sadly mistaken.

Do you have a higher-up contact person's email address you know at QuickBase who would appreciate reading this thread and has the power to act on it? I'd love to forward this to someone.

Thanks,
Michael
