Airtable give the power of making sophisticated spreadsheets to the beginners
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to make a spreadsheet colorful and customize views for easy interpretation. Additionally, I appreciate that I can use the record and create other reports to easily share with others. Even though I don't have an extensive background in data management, it makes thes sophisticated tools very asccessible.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be challenging to work collaboratively, especially once you start paying for premium level accounts because it limits the number of people you can share with/give access to, and then charges you per user. More than any anything, I find the system confusing and not transparent in terms of how the payment works depending on users. The overall payment structure and plans offered are also very confusing. For my use, it would be ideal if I would have workspace that is "shared" and have other people also able to edit and work on specific bases that I give them access to (which currently I can do) BUT without having to pay for each user that accesses my table. It would be easier to have the price fixed than pay for what it seems multiple users to have "plus" accounts. My biggest annoyance though is that when i tried to talk to a human about this to see if they could clarify this or help me optimize the situation, there was no one available. I could never speak to a human being about it despite reaching out on their various Help channels.

Good platform overall
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing about Airtable is its ability to keep a lot of information organized and categorized. At my organization, we use Airtable bases to manage our projects and tasks, as well as to track data trends over time. I like being able to sort and filter records easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Airtable can be frustrating when it doesn't have an intuitive way of doing something that seems like it should be much simpler. I have spent many hours on the Community forum trying to figure out how to set something up the way I want it. Its functionality is limited in some ways as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is much easier for a whole team to work out of than Excel. It benefits us to have one space for all our project management and forms that people outside the organization can fill out that populate our bases.
Amazing team improvement
What do you like best about the product?
its flexibility and ease of use. It combines the simplicity of a spreadsheet with the power of a database, so I can organize and manage my projects in a way that suits me best. The ability to switch between different views, like grid, calendar, and Kanban, makes it easy to see my data in the most useful format, depending on what I’m working on.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's no way to implement hashtags and easy find them or the use of keyworkds
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our databse has incredible improving our internal control with deal flow
Project Management User
What do you like best about the product?
Built in project management tools like gantt charts, backlogs, timeline views. I also like the ease of reorganizing data whether that's fields, views, etc. I also appreciate the online learning hub and the variety of learning formats like webinars and self help guides.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the formulas to be very complex and unintuitive. I also wish there were more resources or examples on using Airtable for single projects, as opposed to organization wide project management.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
An easy to use solution that multiple project team members can access; acts like a source of truth. AI implementation. For me, it's an easier and more adaptable excel that doesn't require constant reformatting.
Game Changer for Project and Workforce Management
What do you like best about the product?
My team used to rely on dozens of shared Excel sheets, which made for chaos. People often went looking for one file when they meant to open a different one, and there would be constant data corruption from multiple users writing over each other. We started using Airtable because we were looking for a way to enter our data using a form. While we initially looked at Microsoft Forms, the amount of data mapping and cleanup our admins would have had to do was untenable. The more we looked into Airtable, and its unique database structure, the clearer it became that it would solve many of the problems we were facing. It allows our admins to dictate what data must be entered and how. Automations have been especially valuable in helping to prevent errors and increase data confidence.
What do you dislike about the product?
While our team found it easier to view data in Airtable using its Interfaces feature (as opposed to a spreadsheet-like Grid View), Airtable Interfaces don't always support all the customizations some members of my team need. Sometimes, someone on our team wants to limit selections or data based on previous searches, but this doesn't always carry over to each page.
From an admin perspective, sometimes Airtable's capabilities for complex calculations fall short of Excel. We often need to export our data to perform predictive analysis and prepare data for visualization in tools like Power BI.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team used to host data across cloud-based tools like Microsoft Lists, Microsoft Planner, and Power BI. Members of our team would forget to update data in one or more of these locations, leading to inconsistencies and inefficiencies. By moving all of our data into one place, Airtable has made it easier for all levels of staff to manage and access the information they need ASAP. Automations have also relieved a pain point of repetitive data entry by being able to pull in relevant information to other parts of our infrastructure without user intervention.
Multi-purpose platform for agency operations and client services
What do you like best about the product?
The best part about Airtable is the flexibility of its internal and external applications. We use it to track 300+ events with staffing, expense coding, proposals and client recaps. Our whole team is on the platform multiple times per day. We also use it for custom registration sites and asset tracking across sponsorship portfolios that our clients ask for.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some limitations around user-edited content. Creating and publishing an app is easy, but it stops short of external users changing information they have already submitted. Ideally, once an external user submits a form or a record, they would have the ability to make edits to that record if the admin allowed for it. This would limit the amount of customer service inquiries and manual changes needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Rapid, no-code app development that is 90% ideal for all our needs. The extra 10% of functionality would cost absorbantly more to code something from scratch, and be far higher maintenance. Our primary use case is inventory, asset tracking and event management.
Transformed the way my team tracks projects and manages time
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the simplicity and ease of use. I'm able to design a table to do exactly what's needed and it just works. The wide range of app integrations and add-ons are also helpful and things I use frequently, especially the Slack integration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Airtable keeps a lot of features behind a paywall, but that's to be expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I prefer Airtable over Google Sheets because of how straight-forward it is to use, and the range of pre-engineered tools available. It allows me to track and prioritize my team's projects while still keeping lower priority projects in sight.
Great Platform!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the different views and data presentation options that are there, as well as the integration and automations
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to be able to have more integration and possibilities of talking back ond forth between things like ZenDesk, Google Sheets, Slack, and UKG Pro
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a very complex relief veterinarian process that requires multiple platforms and tasks and it helps tie some I to Airtable directly and the others as different column checklists in our bases
AirTable Beginner
What do you like best about the product?
As a Project Manager, Airtable helps to keep my team on track. The automations are especially useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
It was a high learning curve for me as I had zero prvious experience with any software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Once set up, Airtable automations keep each team member aware of work that is done and/or needs to be done.
A powerful tool that's always adding new features
What do you like best about the product?
We use a fresh Airtable base each season to organize our marketing campaigns across products and product categories. Because we have views and interfaces, we can customize what information is made available for collaboration and reporting.
What do you dislike about the product?
Becase we can't link across bases, the way we have organized our information has created some holes. We've been refining our system over years, so new functionalities and limitations can be hard to address because our staff is resistant to change.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Unlike our title management system for product management, Airtable allows for collaboration, easy reporting, and linking that ensures our digital assets are just a click away. This makes for nimble marketing and publicity efforts.
