"New Style"

I think Christian is referring to Table Reports. 

my own opinion is that I don't hate the new reports, they just have their advantages and disadvantages compared to the old style. And I have long maintained that users should be able to decide which version they want on a particular report for their day-to-day work. I think about the worker bees, who just use Quickbase all day long and prefer one version over another.

Unfortunately, this forum is not an effective way to communicate with product managers.   

my understanding is that when you flipped to the old style report, it will remember your preference for the day, but then reset overnight. I have employed product managers to make that decision more sticky so it would stay with the user either forever, or at least a month.QuickBase engineers may feel that they still want the features of the new report to be discoverable as they plan enhancements in the future. So if you were locked into the old style report forever, you may not even realize that there are new features.

So having said all that the only way to affect basis to put in a  suggestion into the user voice tab, which is on my apps page at the left and suggest that the selection of old style for new style on a particular report should maintain your choice for a much longer time than just the current day.   

Unlikely. Given the new forms are the present and future it's unlikely that any development time will be given to defaulting the old versions.

I just went and looked at My Feedback and all the "set Old Style as default report" are closed. If you create a new feedback, please post if here and I will vote for it. 

I agree with Mark some features are useful and others are not. I tried to get Quickbase to give us default old style as an option but no luck. Every time I mentioned it the room got quiet. I am happy to continue the effort as New Style reports are stagnant in feature improvements and going backwards in performance. I think we need more people and more effort to make this happen.

In the hopes that QB actually reads this thread, I'll chime in. I agree that there are some great improvements on the new report style. However, it seems in the last few years QB has adopted a new strategy of doing whatever they want despite what all their customers are screaming for. I don't feel like this was always theirs strategy, they used to really put the end user (and customers) first.

They do seem to be going backwards, and I hope they stop for one second and listen to their users at some point. And not just listen, but actually respond to their requests. They have been great at meeting with me to gain my perspective, but so far I am yet to see anything actually come to fruition.

Still a huge QB fan, but in the last couple years constantly disappointed by their decision making.

My coworker recently spoke about how they require the Enterprise level plan to hide the Exchange feature. The general users have no desire or knowledge on what to do with it. Considering they lack admin rights within an app and the ability to build apps in my Realm, the Exchange feature becomes redundant and impractical for their use. So, pay money to get rid of it or explain to everyone who asks about it that it is useless to them.
