Airtable as an asset for nonprofit recruitment
What do you like best about the product?
I like that the visualization is very clean and easy, being able to expand each student's profile and see their answers to every one of our application questions makes it so each to deliberate.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a bit rigid, it would be nice to be able to color code things, create different kinds of cells, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping us create a lite CRM without having to yet invest in a larger CRM. We are able to organize and visualize our student and staff applicant pool and able to collaborate easily in deliberating and rating candidates.

Best Project Management Tool Ever
What do you like best about the product?
I will admit , I had to tel ChatGPT what I wanted to build and I couldn’t be more pleased. I have CRMs dashboard for every function of my business.
What do you dislike about the product?
The help section of bot never answers the questions I have. I’m having problems with an automation that I’m trying to create, but only half of the automation works. I worked on it for 5 hours yesterday before I just gave up
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a centralized CRM dashboard that gives me a complete overview of how my business is performing.
Up to speed in a short time
What do you like best about the product?
I joined my current company in May of 2024. This is a small business that runs large scale events and uses Airtable to keep track of all event details. By July of 2024 (merely a month and a half after starting), I was fully functioning as an Administrator and User of Airtable. I use Airtable every day to track progress on our events, build and monitor budgets, take in guest, volunteer and staff data, and so much more. In addition, the Airtable resources and training tools have helped me to get up to speed, and when I need to learn something new, or want to know if I can do something outside of the box, it is really easy to find answers.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have enjoyed the periodic webinars that share new features, but sometimes the features are not fully helpful. Most recently I attended a webinar on the AI Assistant. The hype was so exciting, but when I started to use it, I found it to be quite daunting and not fully functioning as the webinar showcased. I hope these features will improve soon because the concepts/ideas are great! I have a very specific use case that I am hoping it will help me build in the future!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Here are the main areas that I use Airtable for. Without these functions I would have to use excel or google sheets, which both have far less functionality and does not update in real time for the rest of my team, like Airtable does. Event Management (We run a three day festival that hosts approximately 20,000 people). Using Airtable I can track year over year ticket types and prices; build my vendor and volunteer applications and accept them, monitor them, etc.; I can plan/monitor my Marketing Campaigns for the full year; I can track all operations and suppliers in one base; I can evaluate potential partners and dollars coming in to run the event; I can track sales and build tables and charts using extensions; I can keep track of staff; I can monitor my budget; and so much more. I can then replicate these bases for additional events we host throughout the year. It simplifies the project management/event planning processes!
Flexible in application. Inflexible in Pricing.
What do you like best about the product?
It is a well designed tool that is generally intuitive to build and design tools with both for internal and external use.
What do you dislike about the product?
The automation tool would be next to useless due to the limit on how many automations you can have, how long automation chains can be, and the inability to layer conditionals more than one deep. The ability to use webhooks and custom javascript saves it from this ultimately. Despite the the custom scripting, the hard cap on how many automations you can run in a month with no overages and no option to increase makes it a less than optimal choice. Zapier has proved a better option for automating. In addition to this, the cost of adding users is incredibly prohibitive. They price it as though they expect it to be you CRM or Project management service in and of itself, despite not being even close to the best option. My primary complaint is the in flexibility of AirTables pricing scheme. They have a couple of sizes and if they don't fit you exactly, you are better of finding a different service, or you will need to supplement with a different service.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use airtable as the backend database.
Waiting for Japanese
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility, and power. I love it although I am struggling to understand how to do automations. Its a great tool and the Japanese is waiting for it. When will you develop a solution for Japan including a support network, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
No Japanese interface and provider network or support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Centralizing to a single source of truth.
Great, versatile tool
What do you like best about the product?
It allows you a wide range of functionality in a very quick timeframe. a no-code, visually appealing, database / project management / front-end.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a point where it does not scale, given it becomes slow to run with enough rows / data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I’ve used it as a no-code front end for MVP. Managing tasks. And running certain automations.
Great tool for so many needs
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility, ease of use, deep customization capabilities, integrated interface designer, scalability, approachability.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be costly when you add a lot of team members, especially when they are infrequent users. Too strong of a focus on marketing automation and tech focused product development. Could be better at solving for cross industry problems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to address a range of issues across a data intensive business, from revenue racking to accounting, CRM and social media planning.
Great Interface, Easy To Navigate
What do you like best about the product?
I like how adaptable it is to existing files that are imported and how easy it is for my team to navigate it
What do you dislike about the product?
Downsides would be some of the tutorials online aren't easy to access. There is always a website issue when trying to access help tools
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable is removing the need for weekly email blasts as all information is updated in real time. The slack integration is very helpful.
Simple, visual, and flexible
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Airtable is how it gives you the structure of a spreadsheet without feeling like a spreadsheet. You can customize everything, view your info in a way that actually makes sense (calendar, kanban, gallery—whatever works), and link related data so you’re not juggling five different tools. It’s basically the love child of a database and a planner.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about Airtable is that the learning curve can be a little annoying at first—especially if you’re not super techy. It looks simple, but some of the features (like linked records or formulas) can get a bit confusing until you play around with it. Also, some of the best features are locked behind the paid plan, which is kind of frustrating if you’re trying to keep costs low.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable is solving the chaos of trying to run a business out of a million Google Docs, sticky notes, and scattered spreadsheets. It’s helping me centralize everything—client info, content planning, launch timelines, even podcast tracking—into one streamlined hub. The biggest benefit? I actually feel organized. I can see everything at a glance, track progress, and stop wasting time hunting down random notes or re-creating the same systems over and over.
