We study the interplay of superfluidity, glassy and magnetic orders of hardcore bosons with random frustrating interactions. In the classical limit, this model reduces to a $\pm J$ Edwards-Anderson Ising model with concentration $p$ of the ferromagnetic bonds, which hosts a glassy-ferromagnetic transition at a critical concentration $p_c^{\rm cl}\sim 0.77$ on a 3D cubic lattice. Our quantum Monte Carlo simulation results using the worm algorithm show that quantum fluctuations stabilize the coexistence of superfluidity and glassy order ("superglass"), and shift the (super)glassy-ferromagnetic transition to $p_c> p_c^{\rm cl}$. In contrast, antiferromagnetic order coexists with superfluidity to form a supersolid, and the transition to the glassy phase occurs at a higher $p$.
