I love it
What do you like best about the product?
It is the perfect balance of a databse and a no code app/automation engine. I think this makes programming accessible to people and they can make more of the information they use to do their work. In theory Airtable can serve as the backend for more complex applications. I use it everyday
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't duplicate interfaces across bases, if I don't duplicate the whole base, I would have to recreate it from scratch. I think the product can be more ambitious as it can be the programming interface on the future.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is im primary wotk tool. I use it to manage the information I need for work and run automations and create apps from it

Easy to use, effective data management with client interfaces
What do you like best about the product?
We've been using Airtable since it's early stages and have been able to integrate the many wonderful changes in our every day use. We love the different views including view only links that we can share with clients without needing a login. All of the field options are great, ability to upload and view photos & attachments. I also like that they seem to listen to their customers as many of the recent upgrades we have seen have been requests in the community forums. For example the ability to restrict specific column access to users, that was a game changer for our organization. Thank you Airtable for a great product!
What do you dislike about the product?
The only complaint we have is the inability to have specific users at higher Airtable plans. Just about everyone in our company has a paid airtable account, but it would be great if managment users only could upgrade to business. Unfortunately it doesn't work like that and more than doubling our Airtable expenses for everyone just to have a few managers have access to the Business level features does not make sense so we're stuck with everyone at team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used to have several separat processes that now are all within airtable. This has reduced time it takes to do things like assign a task to our design department, reducing errors due to redundancy and repeating information. Also the seamless sharing and views makes it great for sharing real time data with clients, such as current budget on a large project that auto updates in their shared link.
The blend of ease-of-use and power
What do you like best about the product?
What I like the most is how it enables me to use the power of excel without facing the complexity of excel. Also the vast ways I integrate it to Notion, Softr, Make.com, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
nothing, till now.
I believe it's very good. However, the latest limitation they've placed on free plans are a bit disturbing, I hope they undo it

Being able to store, adjust, and manipulate data easily.
Great Balance Between Form and Function
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable’s best feature is the way it strikes that hard balance between form and function. I love how it takes a platform I'm already quite familiar and comfortable using for advanced requests Sheets/Excel and combines it with database functions and automations that are not only powerful, but easy on the eyes. Airtable bases and interfaces are gorgeous. I'm a huge fan of color coding and Airtable's UI is quite pleasing to work with for extended periods of time. I love how easily you can link records between tables to create incredibly detailed and layered databases and eventually, more robust and comprehensive data analysis and reporting. The interfaces and formsa are also game-changers and a huge upgrade to my previous go-to -- Google Forms. The custom dashboards are great for presenting information to folks that aren't dealing with the day-to-day data entry/clean-up and/or aren't as data-oriented and jsut want to see the big picture. Plus, the automations are a game-changer, especially for repetitive tasks like sending updates or reminders. I use Airtable exclusively and it has completely elevated my working style and my career aspirations. Airtable is so intuitive that it's made data-driven
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the things I dislike is the limited permissions system. It's incredibly rigid and there isn't really a cost-effective way to share databases with non-paid users who need to make quick edits 1-2x per year. Airtable would benefit from more features/access for non-paid users invited to a specific interface or base, especially for those managing sensitive or varied data. Another weakness is the lack of built-in customizable PDF exports. Right now, to generate a PDF in Airtable, you need third party apps that can be quite costly and aren't all that user friendly. (The over reliance on these apps is also frustrating because it defeats the purpose of having a "one-stop-shop" for data/project management needs.)This makes it quite difficult to generate professional-looking reports from the tables or interfaces. While Airtable has some basic charting options, it’s not built for deep data analysis. Additionally, as your base grows, performance can start to lag, especially if you’re managing a high volume of records with lots of complex formulas or linked tables. Lastly, some advanced functions, like certain types of automations or conditional logic within forms, still feel limited compared to a full-scale database system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A major issue that Airtable solves for me is how it smoothly merges the familiarity of spreadsheets with the functionality of a database, making it easy to create dynamic, layered systems that support complex project and data management. The platform’s intuitive, visually appealing interface and color-coded options keep it engaging to work with for extended periods, which is important in my line of work. Airtable has simplified data linking across tables, transforming what would have been multiple scattered documents, spreadsheet tabs, etc. into a single, cohesive system that I can also share. The custom interfaces and dashboards are perfect for presenting data to stakeholders who just want the highlights, while automations take care of routine tasks like reminders, freeing up my time for more strategic work. Overall, Airtable has not only streamlined my workflows but has also aligned with my career goals by inspiring and fostering my interest in data analysis in higher education administration.
Airtable is sheets with AI powerups!
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to configure. LOVE that it links up to slack!. Easy form building. Super easy to implement.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the forumlas are a bit difficult to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I create internal forms and databases to manage our policies and supplier processes etc.
What Excel wishes it was
What do you like best about the product?
I frequently get sent spreadsheets at work that contain a lot of data. Some of my colleagues make great sheets that utilize excel/ google to the upper bounds of its limits. After using airtable, even these sheets feel flat. The ability to visualize, manipulate, and share data is truly unmatched with airtable. I've loved getting to know and use the product over the past few years and am constantly impressed by new updates and use cases. The community behind the product is amazing and helpful, and the company does so much to support user-driven learning. Any time a new project comes up, my team knows to expect my first approach to organize everything will be to do it in airtable.
What do you dislike about the product?
The hardest thing that I found with airtable was figuring out how to utilize it as inital user. I didn't really understand what I was doing so it was hard to understand all of the features. Before they offered the webinars and other learning tools they do now, it took working with some power users from my organization to really see the potential. Every once in a while I get myself into a tricky spot and I can't seem to figure out how to do what I want, the growth in the community support has been helpful over the years in figuring out what is possible and how best to do what I'm looking to do.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to make data useful year over year! As with a lot of organizations, mine tends to be awash with endless historical documents with data that is useful, but that lives in a bunch of different places and formats. It's not easy to use, it's not easy to find, so it doesn't really help. Airtable has been great for actually creating living documents that can be added to year over year and allow us to see clear paths from where we started to where we want to go.
Airtable Has Been a Game Changer
What do you like best about the product?
After making the switch to Airtable about a year ago, I can confidently say it has been a game changer for our team. We started with the basics, simply entering tasks, but the product has evolved with us, expanding into approvals, workflows, tracking, communication, capacity planning, and so much more.
One of the standout features of Airtable is its ease of use. The intuitive interface allows our team to adapt quickly, making it accessible for everyone, regardless of their technical background. This has significantly boosted our productivity and collaboration.
What truly impresses me is how the platform continually surprises us with new features just when I think we’ve mastered it. Each update reignites my enthusiasm and enhances our daily operations.
Additionally, the connection we have with the platform is invaluable. We can share suggestions and recommendations for improvements, and I’m thrilled to see that some of our ideas have been implemented.
I’m genuinely grateful our company chose to embrace this platform, and I’m excited to see how we’ll continue to leverage it in the future!

What do you dislike about the product?
I was genuinely excited to start using Airtable, but the onboarding process didn't quite meet our expectations. It seemed there was a lack of communication regarding the level of engagement and specific tasks required from both our team and the platform for a successful implementation. As a result, we initially found ourselves with a tool that didn’t fully align with our business needs.However, the platform’s user-friendly design allowed us to quickly adapt and customize it to fit our specific requirements. Once we navigated past that initial hurdle, our experience improved significantly.
One area where I believe there could be enhancement is in communication about upcoming features and options. While I understand that not all ideas may come to fruition, having insight into the roadmap of potential updates would be incredibly beneficial. It would also be helpful to be informed about smaller changes—like new dropdown options or the ability to sort features alphabetically. These seemingly minor updates can make a significant difference for our team, and knowing about them in advance could encourage wider usage and engagement with the platform.
Overall, despite the rocky start, things have gone smoothly, and I’m looking forward to seeing how Airtable continues to evolve. With improved communication around future developments, I believe we can maximize our experience and fully leverage the platform's capabilities.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our initial use case for Airtable was simply to track tasks and clarify responsibilities. We began using the platform for this purpose, but it didn’t take long for us to discover its extensive capabilities. We’ve been leveraging the platform to manage every aspect of our team—from tasks and projects to products and our roadmap. Having all our data centralized in one location simplifies integration and allows for seamless comparison across different areas.
Great Tool, Easy to Use!
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to use and intuitive, you can figure out how to do quite a bit just by exploring and playing around within a base. Especially like the different views to view data, forms, and notifications that can be set up based on forms or just anytime new data is entered. Their customer support is also great; very responsive, they are proactive about alerting when anything in Airtable might be down or slow, and they have a multitude of resources to help you learn how to do just about anything within Airtable that might be a little bit more complex or that you feel you just need a bit more guidance on.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the filtering might make you think that some of your information is missing if you forget that you have your data filtered.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They are a more interactive and visually appealing form of Excel.

What do you dislike about the product?
My biggest issues with the current versioning of Airtable are similar to other scaling enterprise solutions, simple requests don't always move fast enough and your feedback can get lost in the roadmap abyss.
For example, the interface app builder is highly limted in its current ability to string multiple data tables together on single pages. Solutions can be inflexible to rigid rules without clarity as to when these will be improved.

Since 2020 I have been building Operational Excellence with Airtable
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable allows me to build digital tools on my own. Year by year, or rather month by month, more and more advanced features are available.
Thanks to Airtable, Digital Transformation in my organization is fast and with a lot of fun. Our activities are aimed at work efficiency and at the same time at the satisfaction of users and participants of digitalized processes.
After implementing Inretfaces, Airtable has gained a new dimension as a full-fledged tool for business analytics, and the ability for distributed users to add data using Forms causes a fast and cost-free increase in important data from users, which we previously either did not collect or neglected, storing on local PCs.
Airtable Interface capabilities allow you to build complex dashboards with capabilities sometimes unattainable in other specialized BI platforms. For example, combinations of charts, forms, and attachment repositories on a single dashboard.
The ease of working with Airtable has resulted in a rapid increase in the competence of creating digital tools by non-IT employees. Thanks to this, over the course of several years we have developed dozens of useful tools and management systems across the entire organization.

What do you dislike about the product?
For today, I am writing "for today" because watching the development of Airtable I expect that in the future these functionalities will be expanded, I miss two things.
First, the ability to create more complex data charts in Interfaces. And second, a mobile application for Android supporting Interfaces.
I am writing of course from the point of view of an advanced, long-time user building large management systems.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable supports the digitization of distributed processes in which SCADA, MES or ERP systems cannot be used.
Task, project and project portfolio management have gained a new dimension thanks to Airtable.
Thanks to the ability to independently shape databases, forms and user dashboards, the efficiency of project portfolio management has increased by hundreds of percent. I have had experience with management systems and each of them had its limitations in creating functionality tailored to a specific organization.
I also built a Daily Management System on a scale never used before. The system is also tailor-made. It is amazing that thanks to the ease of development with Airtable, we expand it every month with new functions and our systems grow with the growth and development of Airtable.
