Easy and quick
What do you like best about the product?
It's fantastic how quick it is to build a powerful database. It's also impressive how many new features have been implemented since I started using Airtable. Plus the Mac OS and iOS applications work really well.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much to dislike, I think I would like more views for the database but that is mostly an aesthetic issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Airtable for project management in a team. Before we did not had a centralised platform where all the collaborators could view and edit projects and now we do. It's been much quicker and easy to share information between all the collaborators.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend to use the mobile and desktop applications.
Love this app! - so many uses and so easy to use!
What do you like best about the product?
It is very intuitive, and is incredibly useful to us for project management, project request information gathering and tracking, and hiring processes. We are loving the ability to easily configure the tables, store attachments, share information, and schedule events that will interface with our office calendars. It is easy to promote adoption of this application because it is so easy-to-use.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be great to have better ability to customize entry forms. Allowing form designers to customize the layout of these forms would help make the form entry easier, and more compelling, to complete.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project Management, Job Applicant tracking, Request management
Wonderful experience switching many community street festival's information systems over to Airtable
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Airtable is a beautifully designed tool that lets me implement my own collaborative, domain specific, streamline solutions to a variety of projects. For me, as a database professional, Airtable has proven to be incredibly empowering as I design workflows and mini-apps for the data intensive projects I get involved in. The idea of a intuitive, collaborative and online, and elegant relational database system hits the sweet spot for so many projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really comes to mind other they could work on their pricing structure so they are appropriate options for all scenarios
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a collaborative, database backed, information system, with online forms for our community street festivals to replace our unruly Google Doc system that we had built up over the years. It landed beautifully and our festival organizers and volunteers love it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it for a small project that requires a database first to see the power
Excellent cooperation and database tool for our NGO
What do you like best about the product?
Availability as web app, for PC, Mac, Android an iOS. Easy to use and understand - no training required! Absolutely 100% reliable - once you add data, Airtable will not lose it. Crowd contribution and sharing is excellent!
What do you dislike about the product?
Handling of dates in european format could be better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With more and more data accumulating over the years, spreadsheets were becoming increasingly insufficient for us. We knew we needed a database that was easy to handle, required minimum to no training for users and available on PC, Mac und mobile devices. Airtable did all that and more for us.
Fantastic! Airtable is intuitive and easy to use; but amazing powerful.
What do you like best about the product?
You can easily link spreadsheets to each other and transition seamlessly between views. And virtually no training is needed because it is so well designed.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, so good. I really have trouble thinking of potential improvements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are keeping a remote team of collaborators from different organizations organized on team.
Great for Visual Thinkers!
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to view my tasks and plans in whatever visual mode my brain is feeling on a particular day.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish there was a small team option where I could admin a group account for my small non-profit team, rather than separate accounts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Task management! A huge part of my work is event and training planning, and airtable allows me to map out every piece in detail and keep myself on top of easy to forget tasks and contacts. The multiple view options, and the option for a column to refer back to another table is what really makes it above and beyond other task management options for me.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't set yourself up to rely on the software before you've had plenty of time to figure it out!
Wow! Solved our NGO's DB challenges in a hurry!
What do you like best about the product?
We were able to upload our existing Excel files for our clients and sponsors and customize them within AirTable very quickly. The multiple views of our data including the Blocks features, putting our data on maps and charts is exceptional. The ability to construct an input form for field data capture on smartphones is outstanding. AirTable solves many of our data challenges in a hurry!
What do you dislike about the product?
The price can be a bit of a challenge but AirTable provides discounts for charities that make it much more affordable and worth the investment!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to track our homeless clients in Cambodia from interview through to the building of their new homes and beyond. Airtable gives us many tools to do this very efficiently and effectively and to communicate with our teams and sponsors along the way. It will save us time and money and allow us to build more homes for the homeless. Thank you! 🙏🌞
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is definitely worth a look, especially if your team are not database professionals.
Staying organized and informed with Airtable
What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate the options and ability to have so much control over the tables and databases. You can create so many unique fields and columns to customize the databases to your exact needs. Even more so, I most like how easy it is to use!
What do you dislike about the product?
So far I don't have many (or hardly any) complaints. The one feature I would like to see eventually is the ability to link databases together, rather than only being able to link tables within one database. But there are ways to work around this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm hoping to solve several key issues in our area. The most important is to have one unified place to easily get important information and data from. This is helping to improve workflow, efficiency, and organization for several key employees.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend this product to anyone that has plans to implement databases, especially if the thought of learning MS Access makes you uncomfortable. I'm blown away at the ease of use and how customizable it is.
Great way to collect and share data.
What do you like best about the product?
The relational features, customization options, color labeling, and multiple viewing options. Also being able to add images/attachments so easily!
What do you dislike about the product?
Exporting images is not an available option.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Conference planning. team collaboration, real time updates across the entire team. Benifits include easier transfers of information and expedited workflows that lead to better accuracy.
They weren't kidding about organizing EVERYTHING
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can centralize a lot of information into one handy location, and that there are different views to present that information. Questions that used to take me 5 minutes or more to find the answer now take less than one. It's easy to use, designed well, and I haven't encountered any bugs so far. I also love the grouping and sorting functions, it has made a huge difference in organizing a lot of records.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that everyone at my workplace would use Airtable so the IT department would be willing to get an Enterprise account.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work for a non-profit research organization, and my department has a lot of grants and fellowships I need to organize and keep track of. I also have a boss who travels a lot, and whose travel arrangements can be complicated, with a lot of details to manage. Airtable can function as an organizer of information but I also use it as a checklist. It has drastically improved my efficiency and effectiveness in getting tasks done.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The beauty of Airtable is the ease of use and the flexibility with which you can use it. I use it to centralize and organize a lot of information and documents, but you could also use it as a checklist, program management tool, and probably many other ways I cannot think of right now. It's easy to collaborate with your team, and keeps everyone on the same page. To say that my work life has changed since I started using Airtable is not an exaggeration, it's just the truth.
