In a meeting, I see people using the phrases like
'Move on fast ...'
'He has moved on fastly ...'
Similarly for words like 'quick', etc.
Please give me more examples like when to use the noun directly and
when to go for adjectives, thank you.

Here, it modifies the verb "to move"
'He has moved on fastly ...' "fastly",as an adverbial form, doesn't exist in current English.
Similarly for words like 'quick', etc. "fast" means "quickly".
