I can manage all of my tasks and leave comments for my team easier
What do you like best about the product?
Getting all the members of a team together, whether it's just people in your own company or clients as well, can be a hassle when it comes to scheduling meetings through calls or in person. Airtable lets us enter and configure all the key details of projects in an internet-based work area with tools that are easy for most people to use. I like that Airtable keeps the main panels and cells simple with the primary information about tasks. We can easily change the status of each task to keep other team members updated.
What do you dislike about the product?
We can't modify the design and structure of the main Airtable work area that much. I like to have as many options as possible to fit the scheduling and information sharing environment to meet our needs and cut out more of what we don't need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As an information center, Airtable works well to keep information about shared projects accessible at all times to everyone involved. With the email notifications, we don't have to worry as much about constantly checking in by logging into our Airtable accounts. We can get notified through our phones or other mobile devices, which is where I focus much of my time on certain days.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Airtable is an excellent team productivity solution for companies that want to keep the shared environment simple, yet allowing for deeper collaborations when needed. I think many companies like to go with the most advanced collaborations tools, but if many people are incapable of using those tools, then the value is minimized.

Airtable Review
What do you like best about the product?
My work division uses Airtable as rather than Excel or Google Sheets to keep shared documents, and this has been extremely helpful to our team, especially in keeping lots of different information in one central location that we can easily sort through. It has more components than a traditional excel sheet, like attaching documents or images, it is an quicker way to keep track of documents than a Cloud Storage software like Dropbox or Google.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does take a little adjusting at first if you are used to Excel. It's not a true replacement for Excel if you are trying to make a spread sheet with borders, and it also is not able to highlight select cells and add the cells in other places like in an sheet on Microsoft Excel. There is no support for traditional Microsoft formatting which is not ideal when you try to bring in information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
So far it's a very goof resource for our team. I use it daily for member tracking, marketing planning, storing up a queue of future content, assigning co workers with leads for stories/members. I would love to see this program grow overtime because it can be very valuable to any organization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easy to use, basically a database without the different components of one. No more input of tab data via spreadsheet or table in word processing software. Extremely handy and can save any type of firm time.
The right toolkit to organize and manage all kinds of projects and tables.
What do you like best about the product?
Its modern GUI makes working with this software truly a pleasure, its excellent design makes navigating its functions, menus and views a pleasant experience. There are several options to visualize different types of data which help a better appreciation on the part of the user and therefore a better understanding of what they are observing, this adds to the software adaptive capabilities that are so necessary to satisfy even the most demanding of its users.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their limited permissions options offered to users is one of the weakest points of Airtable because with a very granular permission group allows users to have better control over how they want to manipulate and have their documents. Because it is not a software specialized only in spreadsheet creation does not offer robust features for this so for users who are used to working with spreadsheet based software this will seem a little featureless.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before the incorporation of Airtable I did not find a software that met my needs for various reasons since they were either very limited to only offering spreadsheet functions or were very poor in features, after finding Airtable I knew it was the software for me because it gave me in a unique way everything I needed, a tool that offered more functions than just editing and creating spreadsheets but that met all my organizational needs for personal projects or related to my work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Airtable turns out to be much more than it seems to be, it's certainly not just a software to create spreadsheets because it takes its functionalities further by offering a collaboration environment between colleagues, improves the organization of your work by providing you various options that are shaped to the requirements you may have as a user or as a company. Their customer support is genuinely user-friendly, they give you the right solution to your problems quickly and in a simple way so that any user no matter their technical level can understand.
Airtable Review
What do you like best about the product?
I love the customization options. I also really appreciate the aesthetics, how easy it is to hide/unhide/move fields, the filter abilities, the blocks for bulk editing, the linking between records, and so so much more.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are still some pieces missing that would be super useful for us (the ability to read a cell's contents and apply if-then results and not just count the contents, for instance). And it can get expensive quickly if you have a big team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
So far it's a golden resource for us. I use it every day for member tracking, marketing planning, storing up a cache of future content, assigning team members as leads for stories/members/etc. I really, REALLY hope this program sticks around because it's dead useful for us in so many arenas.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Overall I am a super fan of Airtable - first discovered, fell in love, and told everyone I knew about Airtable 3-4 years ago, IIRC when they first appear on Product Hunt. Build a whole bunch of bases to manage my person life (book list, financial trackers, a large inter-linked base to track 3D printing activities for a local maker space etc.). I highly recommend Airtable.
Most important tool I use
What do you like best about the product?
So easy to use and visually appealing. I can change the layout of notes and tasks depending on what I need. Everyone I have shared Airtable with ended up using it for their project management.
What do you dislike about the product?
I honestly cannot think of anything I dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Benefits are productivity increase, organization, and helping multiple teams be able to view the same sheet to stay on the same page.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try the free trial and get the feel. Yes, there is a bit of learning curve involved as it is different from many other task management programs. Really set some time aside to play around with it. Make multiple 'workspaces' and see how it feels for your needs.
Best combiner of spreadsheet, cms and file storage around!
What do you like best about the product?
AirTable is like MS Excel, Google Drive, and Trello combined. Innovated software that allows you to have spreadsheet functionality, while also playing the role of file storage (CMS). Plus is all stored in the cloud so multiple people can interact and make changes in real-time. I absolutely love this free software.
What do you dislike about the product?
At the moment, very little. The pricing plans could be better, but the freemium version is pretty good for entry-level users. Sometimes the auto-save feature can be a little bit glitchy, just make sure it's working every now and again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use AirTable to track customer success related issues, company financial forecasting, managing marketing content, etc. It can be used for so many things with the various templates they've created for different use cases. Plus, there tutorials section is great!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're using Asana, Trello, or any other PM software, I highly recommend you switch to AirTable. They are becoming the industry standard!
Love Airtable for all breezy project management and collaboration!
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is intuitive, easy to use, and easy to customize. I love that I can format my lists/projects in calendar form, charts, lists, etc. depending on how I think it will make the most sense organizationally. It is great for keeping track of task owners, deadlines, and status of each project. They also have amazing customer service!!
What do you dislike about the product?
I had to figure out some of the technical tools such as filtering, sorting, etc. but once I emailed customer support, they were able to explain it quickly and easily to me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Seamless collaboration for all involved teammates, easy to update as deadlines change... great for keeping up with our demanding schedules and keeping everyone on track.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Read some of the onboarding articles so you can best optimize your experience! Or reach out to customer service and they are so helpful. There are so many opportunities to customize your experience so it's great to take advantage of the resources they offer when you sign up.
Used for work
What do you like best about the product?
I liked the data base style and ease of use of the program
What do you dislike about the product?
Filters could be a little easier to use, but it's not that bad really. Had to put something here.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were using it for online websites and data involved.
A visually minimalistic work organizing solution with extensive capabilities
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has excellent visual features that are easy to move around. There are a variety of views we can get about scheduled work and work in progress. Sometimes I prefer the calendar view or a Gantt chart, so Airtable keeps things flexible and responsive in that sense. Airtable isn't a huge expense and there are several plans offered to suit our needs for a given period of time. I like the blocks that we can add that can give us more interactive collaboration features. I also like the range of templates they have which can help us structure our projects and move us in the right direction.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's nothing obvious that comes to mind that I really dislike about Airtable. It has been confusing for some other team members to use at times, which can cause some frustration to all involved, but that's not really something to fault Airtable about.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable helps our team to set out task and deadlines so we can all keep track of our progress towards group goals. It's easy enough for most people in our department to use, so we don't have to take too much time reading over instructions or doing lots of trial and error to get our projects set up and going. We are generally able to communicate with each other better and can focus more on actual work matters with less distractions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Airtable should help your team stay on track and be better informed about group activities on a daily basis. You should check out some of the project templates Airtable has to offer to get some of your initial projects of the ground faster.
Used daily for Organizing work done as an account manager
What do you like best about the product?
I like the customized views which is helpful in organizing everything I need to do on a daily basis.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that the program integrated with Salesforce and Zendesk and could be linked to Gmail to automate more of the information I am having to manually enter.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Airtable to organize accounts with a small team. We are able to track our accounts grouped by account manager, the customer, all accounts associated with a specific customer, all important contacts for each account, meetings with each account, and task manage.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a great tool for organizing your projects. And there are many templates to help you get started.
