The short version

  • Only Volnyn has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Quickbase both paid tiers carry an enforced minimum seat count, 20 for Team and 40 for Business, so a small team pays for seats it does not have people to fill.; Volnyn website creation sits on Pro Max, not the entry paid tier, so the feature most buyers arrive for is on the second plan up.
  • They diverge on capability: Quickbase covers Relational app builder, Volnyn covers AI website builder.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 15 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Quickbase

  • Both paid tiers carry an enforced minimum seat count, 20 for Team and 40 for Business, so a small team pays for seats it does not have people to fill.
  • Integration Reads packages, support tier upgrades and professional services are not publicly priced, so the visible per-user rate is only part of the real annual cost.
  • It sits in an awkward middle ground: more structure than a spreadsheet or simple form tool, but less process automation depth than Appian or OutSystems for genuinely complex workflows.
  • Reporting and dashboarding are capable but not as visually sophisticated as a dedicated business intelligence tool, so heavy analytics users often still export data elsewhere.
  • App complexity that grows significantly over time can hit performance and design limitations common to no-code relational tools, requiring a rebuild on a more code-first platform.

Volnyn

  • Website creation sits on Pro Max, not the entry paid tier, so the feature most buyers arrive for is on the second plan up.
  • Everything is metered from one credit balance, which makes the monthly cost a function of usage rather than a number you can budget. A few AI videos at 100 credits each consume a meaningful share of a Pro allowance.
  • Prices are published in UAE dirhams only, so buyers elsewhere carry the conversion and any card fees on top.
  • The product surface is unusually broad for its size, spanning site building, apps, documents, media generation, browser automation, a freelancer marketplace, a property portal and games. Depth in any one of those is harder to assume than it would be for a focused tool.
  • No founders, leadership or company history are published, and the stated address is a large shared office building, so there is little to verify the operation behind the product against.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Quickbase: Can I buy fewer than 20 seats?

No. The Team plan enforces a 20-user minimum and Business enforces 40, so smaller teams pay for the floor regardless of actual headcount.

Volnyn: Is Volnyn free?

There is a free plan, and it is gated by credits rather than by time. Chat costs 5 credits a message, an AI image 50 and an AI video 100, so the free tier is usable for evaluation rather than for running a site.

Source
Quickbase: Is per-user pricing genuinely published?

Yes, unlike most enterprise low-code vendors, Quickbase publishes real per-user monthly rates for Team and Business; Enterprise remains quote-only.

Volnyn: What does Volnyn cost?

Pro is AED 33.05 a month or AED 27.43 billed yearly for 5,000 monthly credits. Pro Max is AED 55.09 monthly or AED 45.72 yearly for 7,000 credits and adds AI website creation. Enterprise is AED 146.86 monthly or AED 121.90 yearly for 9,000 credits.

Source
Quickbase: What is not included in the per-user price?

Integration Reads packages, support tier upgrades and professional services are priced separately and are not publicly listed.

Volnyn: Which plan do I need to build a website?

Pro Max. AI website creation is listed on that tier at 10 credits per website, so the cheapest paid plan does not include the site builder itself.

Source
Volnyn: How do Volnyn credits work?

One balance covers everything. Credits arrive monthly with your plan, roll over if unused, and can be topped up on demand. Each action has a published cost: 5 credits a chat message, 50 an image, 100 a video, 10 a website.

Source
Volnyn: Can Volnyn build mobile apps?

Yes, it lists an app builder covering iOS and Android alongside the website builder, drawing on the same credit balance.

Source
Volnyn: What is the Volnyn browser agent?

A Chrome extension published as Volnyn AI Browser Agent that drives a browser to carry out tasks on your behalf, separate from the site builder.
