It's like a beautiful version of Excel spreadsheets on steroids
What do you like best about the product?
Powerful and versatile database with a pleasant interface. They are constantly adding features. We use it to track everything from new requests (coming in through our website via Airtable forms or via Zapier when entered manually in Hubspot) through the tasks and lifecycle of a project, clients/companies, vendors, vendor invoices, client invoices, portfolio ideas, social media calendar, EOS scorecards. We use some Automations and Extensions, and plan to get into Interfaces soon.
What do you dislike about the product?
I found the learning curve ok for myself, but I know there is a lot of functionality that I am not using yet. Others might find the learning curve harder. I would suggest starting out to use it like a spreadsheet, then adding more views and cross-references to other tables, then getting into advanced features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows us to keep almost all of our business and operations data in one place, making duplicate data entries a thing of the past and allowing everyone to access the data they need at a moment's notice. We can share granular data in custom views with clients or vendors, so they can stay abreast of deliverables and status as well.
Unlimited Ideas and Resources
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has given us the ability to track all tasks in one central location. We have been able to stay on track with our deliverables because of this. Thanks to all of the templates and experts out there, we've been able to automate and save time!
What do you dislike about the product?
If you don't like learning or don't want to pay someone for help, you won't like Airtable. Fortunatly, I've loved learning and have found some great community members to help make our Airtable base the best for us!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We struggled with keeping track of how much work our freelancers had as well as any delays in their tasks. Airtable has helped us map out when we need to look for another freelancer and when we are behind on deliverables.
Encompassing Source of Truth and Versatile Platform
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ease of use in setting up relationships across a database. It helps when multiple data points are all interrelated and the variety of extensions and scripts is so beneficial for speeding up data related exports or checks.
What do you dislike about the product?
One downside is free users' lack of editing access and functionality within a base. We have interns, and having them be able to make a free airtable account that can be altered and tagged but not allowing them to update any of their corresponding tasks themselves is frustrating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable is helping us solve automation redundancies and acting as a source of truth for our information rather than us relying on multiple versions of an excel document looking for the most up to date one.
How I organize my life…

Amazing - Spreadsheets on Steriods
What do you like best about the product?
Forms that can be embedded on websites and connecting sheets through specific fields.
What do you dislike about the product?
The android app is a little hard to use, but good enough for mainly using desktop version. I'm not sure how to make the app better than it is already.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Decreasing communication and time spent filing receipts and purchase orders. Employees fill in a form on our employee portal and the business administration has everything saved in Airtable, and can quickly upload to Quickbooks.
All-in-One App for Small Business
What do you like best about the product?
Always on, always working, powerful, and intuitive. Whenever I have an idea for organizing my consulting business operations, I often search for existing apps, but always return to Airtable, because I can get it to do what I want at practically no cost.
What do you dislike about the product?
As Airtable is adding more features and functionality, I'm afraid it may become less intuitive. More complexity, less ease of use typically, but we'll see. So far, it's still a great tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's a great way to create a database on the fly. Whether you're organizing a customer list, managing projects, or developing media contacts for a client, it's easy to simply begin. You can add fields and rows as you go.
Powerful database that helps to connect stakeholders with critical information
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is a flexible database that enables several teams at Yubico to manage content creation and to then share it out in various views so our stakeholders can quickly and easily find the content they need. We use Airtable to track our customer interactions around advocacy which helps us to pace our asks of advocates to provides a clear record of advoacates who are truly engaged with Yubico.
We have other marketing teams that use Airtable to manage content they are creating and help with scheduling the content they will issue on social channels as well as campaigns that the content will support. The flexbility that Airtable provides enables different teams to manage their own bases and to do support completely unique use cases.
Airtable is used daily by different teams and the sheer ease of use has enabled success across teams. Our stakeholders love the easy access and quick answers that our various views provide them.
Having used Airtable at two companies I have seen teams of all sizes benefit from what can be created, developed, managed and supported in Airtable.
This flexibility of the database is a major strength of Airtable. The easy integration across our various teams is also a major benefit. Some of the new features will be a benefit as we expand our use of the database in the coming year.

What do you dislike about the product?
Working on formulas by myself has not been very easy for me. I have been able to lean into Airtable support to help me work through creating the proper updates to my bases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For customer advocacy, we are using Airtable as a foundational platform for our program. I use it to track customer leads, requests, and progress content and as a way to share live and available content. This helps me to stay on top of our customer advocacy program.
For our social team, they use it to plan out their social posts and to enable their delivery across social channels in an organized fashion.
For Campaigns, they have used it to help our agency and team members be aligned on themes, campaigns and planning.

Level up your lit reviews and data science
What do you like best about the product?
I mostly use Airtable for data science and literature review projects. It makes it easy to do some frustrating or impossible things in excel, e.g., attach files to records, track history when collaborating, and implement ontologies.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not found the built-in data visualizations or plugins especially useful. They are also frequently adding or tinkering with features, which means that sometimes there are workflows or functions that I have to revise when they introduce (what to me is) an unnecessary change.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable has leveled up my working and thinking regarding data science and literature review projects. It makes it easy for me to manage more data; as a result, there are projects and challenges that I would never have attempted before. But now, because I am comfortable with Airtable, I can take on more projects and complete them faster than I could before.
