Extremely useful and flexible
What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility of the platform and wide range of use-cases.
What do you dislike about the product?
Database limitations cause us to create workarounds that defeat the purpose of Airtable's otherwise great functionalities.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Catalog Management, Inventory Management, Order Management,
Beautiful spreadsheets and database tool
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is probably the most straightforward software for spreadsheets and data on the market. It's so easy to organize data, simple to collaborate with coworkers, and has several apps to integrate. The interface is very user-friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't found one thing that I dislike about Airtable!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable allows collaboration on entire databases, not just individual sheets such as Google sheets or excel. Also, Airtable is more user-friendly, so one does not need to be an expert at Excel to complete basic tasks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need to collaborate on databases, don't waste your time looking at other software. Airtable is everything you need and more.
One of the Best Collaborative Project Management Tools Available
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use, the intuitiveness of the software, the platform itself, and that the free version offers enough features that it's still very feasible in which to work collaboratively. I love the ability to create a calendar based on date fields, the ability to create different views of the same Airtable, and the functionality in general. Also, the email notifications you can set up for when others add to Airtable, etc., are fantastic for ensuring you don't miss anything new.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing stands out as a massive dislike. I think that for experienced users, it's relatively intuitive, but new users will most likely need training to understand the platform's full functionality. So in that way, it's not quite as intuitive as it could perhaps be, but I believe that would be an issue with any brand new software. It is incredibly easy to explore and play around within Airtable to learn, however, which I think is very beneficial.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My main Airtable project currently is updating and maintaining a database that shows all licenses my company and sister companies have across our organization. This allows the CRO of our parent company to review all licenses 6-months before their expiration in order to know when to begin any necessary negotiations. It's been incredibly valuable using Airtable to get this massive project collaboratively worked on.
Really good if you know how to use it
What do you like best about the product?
One of the things I loved most about Airtable is its immensity. You can create a lot of relations that eventually you'll be allowed to correlate each variable. They have a lot of tools that can be used to generate statics and metrics (for example) and each table can have personalized access.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a little bit difficult if you're already using other tools (like Jira or Notion) to transfer data and keep it simple for your team. If you have used a tool like this, you'll be able to manage the basics fast enough so your process won't be affected, but if it's not the case even basics can be a little bit hard.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is a huge management tool. You can keep track of tasks and have statistics in the same place.
Great collaborative spreadsheet application, lots of customization, unlimited use cases
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable stores a lot of information in spreadsheet format, making it incredibly easy to use and multi-functional. It also loads incredibly fast for the amount of data it contains. We have some sheets with over 10 tabs that each contain thousands of rows of data.
Great that it's also very collaborative and shareable across the team. Customized views make a HUGE difference for team usage. The fact that it's web-based makes sharing very easy.
Also a fan of the color scheme that Airtable has. It's bright and eye-catching without being distracting or blinding.

What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest downside for our team is that Airtable is not always consistent when it coordinates with other tools, which has given us some headache. Data will occasionally go missing because of wonky-ish integration.
There is also a bit of a learning curve since it's different from a standard spreadsheet product like Excel.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it as a project management tool, CRM, and ATS. It's pretty impressive how multi-functional it is.
A Type A Person's Dream
What do you like best about the product?
How easily customizable and dynamic the tool is
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really comes to mind. It's a great resource
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've used Airtable to better organize anything I was putting into an Excel file or Google Sheet. Specifically, I used it for a content library for marketing and tradeshow schedule and tasks organizer.
Fast and Lightweight
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to quickly filter entries and customize for your needs. It also has a nice user interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a while to get used to it, just like anything that's new.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've used Airtable as a spreadsheet and as a content calendar. It has different templates for different uses.
Airtable
What do you like best about the product?
Allows you to link attachments to data entries and allows syncing between tables/bases. Also their forms & automations are super useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The admin portal is limited. Certain features that you would expect aren't there (like ability to change the background color of all cells in a row). It's not actually a project management tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to save attachments and use automations. It saves time.
Fantastic personal management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Application interface, navigation, performance
What do you dislike about the product?
Application may be more formalized for work flows
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Personal management purposes...easy navigation, easy planning
Simple, Fast, Complete. Airtable Works.
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable provides the simple capability to create and share large project Gantt Charts -- without resorting to a full project management application (or license). Sometimes, you've just got to work fast to get a project going, and the team focused. Time is a critical factor. Airtable allows the user to schedule and combine tasks and deliverables in segmented stages quickly. And efficiently. Also, there's not a big learning curve. And they provide a few training videos that provide tips and techniques. I like this app.
What do you dislike about the product?
I had to pay $$ for additional features (from the free version). The YouTube videos move quickly - so you have to pay attention or rewind and try the techniques. I would prefer an online tutorial. It's sometimes difficult to get people to move to a new online app that has so many capabilities when these people are used to using, say, Excel, to detail a project's deliverables and timeline. But these are little things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're solving complex project assignments - with a small distributed team - and achieving launch and marketing results.
