Awesome tagging and grouping system!

Airtable is the best solution for tagging your data, manage your knowledge also content! We use Airtable for arranging our CRM, managing tasks of sub-teams, and as a social media calendar. It is 360 degrees solution for a Startup or small operations. Besides the Airtable's features, there is a vast community, the Airtable Universe. You can find many lists, planning templates, studies, content or budget plan, etc., which real people prepare. So you can easily find a template and modify it ad use it as a solution. Already Airtable has excellent column properties such as roll-up, look-up, count, auto-number, button, rating, formula.
What do you dislike about the product?
Rich text options must improve. I can't add enough briefs for my team's tasks, "toggle" can simplify the view. When you have multiple spreadsheets in a Base, the view becomes complicated. Maybe a landing page view settings makes them more organized. Maybe a code editor view will be nice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is 360 degrees solution for a Startup or small operations. You can tag your data, creating filters, adding people as responsible, grouping data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If Notion is complicated, Trello isn't enough for you; Airtable is the best solution. You can have multiple "Base"s and easily access them at the landing page. Also, you can share a Base with other people easily with a sharing link.
A supercharged spreadsheet
What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy the way Airtable takes the idea of a spreadsheet and makes it more connected and rich. It allows me to manage CRM, calendars (sorta), and even social media post planning. Really this the functionality here is only limited by your imagination (and every now and then the product itself).
What do you dislike about the product?
While this is a supercharged version of a spreadsheet with deep interconnectedness, it often fails to have the same flexibility when it comes to complicated formulas and advanced features. Sometimes you can't do them, sometimes you need to pay to do them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have found Airtable to be helpful for tracking CRM interactions and it allows me and my team to work in one place to manage outreach. It really does work very well for our somewhat simple CRM.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Airtable is pretty darn useful in its free form. It would be much more useful but also expensive if we paid for the tool.
Perfect!
What do you like best about the product?
Super flexible. Well organized and intuitive. It serves the purpose.
What do you dislike about the product?
I like everything for now. There are no particular disadvantages. In some parts, it is not very intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organize my activities
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do not try it as the first application. First experiment with others, and only then will you realize that it is better.
An incredible platform for those looking to make the jump from spreadsheets to databases
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is an easy and straightforward platform that allows us to rapidly create databases that are accessible to users that are just moving from spreadsheets.
Another plus is the cost! It's incredibly affordable for small businesses and can handle the workload as they grow. It's a great tool to transition small companies used to spreadsheet data management into databases and one that won't be outgrown for a while.
There are also dozens of ways to integrate Airtable into other services like email, accounting software, ecommerce, and more. The ability to automate processes within Airtable and with external services is really countless.

What do you dislike about the product?
As someone who has also worked with large-scale custom databases, I do find some limitations in terms of advanced functions. Too often I find myself creating a lot of hidden workarounds to join data across bases.
BUT this dislike is because I am personally familiar with designing and coding SQL where I am used to more functions and can directly code a database vs creating workarounds using platform tools. I have similar frustration with aspects for SalesForce for the same reason.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I now consult for small businesses and have found that Airtable solves their need to move into a database without breaking the bank. Too often SalesForce and QuickBase are just beyond their budgets of small businesses. Airtable is perfect here and has been regularly adding new features that allow these businesses to continue to scale without needing to immediately move to a new "bigger" platform.
Good way to plan your day
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the beautiful, intuitive and easy-to-use interface, if you used similar tools before, you will feel comfortable with Airtable.
What do you dislike about the product?
We need more functionalities to plan our days. I know it's mostly used for project planning, but it would be great to have items more suitable for day-to-day planning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Overall, I really like Airtable, it's a great way to keep track of my current projects, stay productive, and it's fun to use!
Build your own database for the win .
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can customize everything on Airtable. We needed a very unusual database due to the population we serve, and although it took some work, it is now built to serve the organization's needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the automation features are difficult to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable is keeping much better track of the population served. It keeps us more organized, and makes information easier to find.
Great solution for planning with an interactive spreadsheet
What do you like best about the product?
I have no need for too difficult calculations or databases in order to excellence, Airtable is a fantastic option. I find it incredibly straightforward to utilize Airtable. We offer a lot of materials, including a lot of videos. For every project we have a lot of "simple" samples. Airtable is suitable for anyone from Excel or sheets who want a Table screen. Airtable gives the option to build and write your own scripts. Great for people who have the time to study.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not very appealing are the display options. It is difficult to export some online goods. He wanted to be closer to other websites, such as Squarspace, but I didn't need sufficient time to verify that. There is an airtable learning curve. It offers a ton of adaptability and several methods of seeing the same data, which is easy to lose, albeit beneficial. It takes a long time for the new boarding equipment members and often reverses to utilize it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For all - product tracking, notes, sprint tracking, gantt graphics, general tasks, reference documents, etc. we use Airtable For all. We are beginning a new project and I want to use Airtable as soon as possible, one of our essential project management resources. Because of the lack of a GUI, even reactionaries around the mining office have reacted positive thus far.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The models are great and enable some of my favorite colleagues to follow up. Just test it your squad. It is not totally committed unless you know that you are going to accomplish what you need and that the learning curve is worth dealing with.
Perfect for marketing
What do you like best about the product?
I like the flexibility to create different views. It's helped me organize all my projects in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
The linking feature is too technical for me to figure out... I gave up linking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management and collaboration.
On hand project data sheet
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best is that you can summarize all on going projects and including its other details like amount and project team and so on. Easily track each project. Very handy and accessible using your phone. Live synchronizing on each update of other members.
What do you dislike about the product?
As simple as it is I can't find least function of this. But I can say, this is general and not much into very small details.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With this, site engineers can easily track each project. I can say that this helps for easy project communications and updates from site to office.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For ya'll out there looking for simple and handy project management tool this one is for you.
Fast, Flexible and Familiar
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable makes it easy to add data to a relational database and edit/manage that data without needing a developer. To build a similarly flexible/intuitive UI on top of a custom database would take thousands of hours. Also, the tool's third-party integrations and robust API make it easy to connect the data to other applications so that teams don't have to manage their data pipelines manually. But when a user does need to manage the data through the UI, Airtable's similarities to a traditional spreadsheet make it familiar to the average business user so the required onboarding effort is minimal.
What do you dislike about the product?
1. Airtable fields would benefit from more out-of-the-box data validation features (simple example: the email field should throw an error when a user enters a string that is not in email address format)
2. I wish that all Airtable Views could be white-labeled when embedding.
3. Airtable Apps are often the best way to quickly visualize data for an end-user but there is currently no way to embed or make apps accessible to unlicensed users like with Views.

Our team uses Airtable as a collaborative product management tool where we track user requirements and prioritization. We also use it to collect user feedback via form views and as an internal database for datasets that require frequent, manual hygiene.
