Announcing our "UI Transition Program"

01/11/13

Did you know your QuickBase application now has a new URL? That's because Intuit has activated almost all QuickBase users to its new Quickbase User Interface (or "New UI") using a new URL. For most users, this new URL is named after your company like homedepot.quickbase.com.
