Great for Managing Data and Collaborating with Teams
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to set up and the UI is clean and simple. It's very easy to import and add data, modify, and manipulate to better analyze your information. The ability to name different views, share them publicly, or add collaborators is extremely useful. Also, exporting or printing the result is simple as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to link cells/rows to other databases (not just tables in the same database). The workaround is to copy and paste data (or use a linking app like Zapier), but it seems like a simple solution to allow sources from other databases. Additionally, it would be nice to have cell linking WITH a filter based on the data in another cell.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I manage over 100 adjunct faculty for a top tier University business program. It was much easier to manage the faculty contact information, courses they teach, and to set up the schedule by manipulating and linking the data. I was then able to share that information with the public and was confident of having all of my data in one location.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you use the trial effectively - think and plan out your data fields to get the most out of the trial time. But other than using it to it's max, Airtable is pretty useful and easy to manipulate.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using it to create a sample inventory tracking system, build an event scheduler amongst other things
Innovative Learning Review
What do you like best about the product?
Team Collaboration and ability to share out results to stakeholders. Specifically, we can receive data, create reports and share results with affected users. Also, we like the ability to share out reports in many formats.
What do you dislike about the product?
No major dislikes at this point in our evaluation. It would be nice to turn off the index numbers of sheets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We take voluminous data from various databases and collate into shareable links. Specifically, we take downloaded CSV files and manipulate them into reports that we share with stakeholders.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Need a mechanism for billing less than 50 users.
Remote Collaboration Made Easy
What do you like best about the product?
It has been great to be able to collaborate smoothly and intuitively with colleagues around a similar data set.
What do you dislike about the product?
The view settings are a little bit difficult to navigate, but it is likely the size of my screen that is causing the annoyance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using this for staff management, and org charting. We will likely use it of operational data management and collaboration as well.
A powerful and easy to use system for keeping all of our information organized!
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to understand spreadsheet interface and simple linking of records between tables.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would love to have an auto time stamp when records are updated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I’m in charge of membership for a non-profit, summer camp staff alumni association. Before Airtable, we were maintaining a google sheet with 3,500+ names / contact info.
Airtable has helped us to:
Better manage our membership information
Increase participation at our events
Improve on our communications
Be more efficient in tracking donations

Total Game Changer
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing about Airtable is the functionality. It has the power of excel, google drive, Microsoft, but its functionality is superior to all of these.
What do you dislike about the product?
I believe that this program requires a learning curve for those who are not familiar with it...this takes time if you are building from the ground up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using this program as a Case Management system for our small nonprofit. In the future, we will track the data of young people from the journey from homelessness to being housed in safe and secure housing.
Incredible tool for collaboration and transparency
What do you like best about the product?
Really easy to format according to your organization's or your team's needs. I really like the layout and the user friendliness. Keeps everything organized in one place for easy access.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have anything that I dislike. Really easy to use and share amongst team members. Keeps everyone organized and on the same page.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it for projects and keeping track of our progress with each project. We have all collateral synced with each line-item and its a great resource to keep everything organized and have a central location to access all relevant information.
Airtable - Wonderful collaboration tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Picture storage is amazing! Great collaboration tool. There is an awesome Airtable to GSheets app that auto-dumps your data into GSheets every hour.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not enough permission levels. Should be able to set permissions on tabs within a base as opposed to the permissions at the base level. No internal reporting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Field validation. Although copy and pasting into a lookup field allows users to add additional options to a dropdown, which is not ideal. Cuts out the middleman--we no longer have to send data reports to someone to enter into a Google sheet. Field staff now enters data directly into Airtable.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend checking to see how familiar your staff is with using grid based spreadsheet programs like Excel or Google Sheets before moving over to Airtable. We had quite a few staff members who were not as technically capable as we thought they were and thus required extra training before they were ready to use the tool in the field.
Great Tool For Non-Profit Data Management
What do you like best about the product?
Love the multiple functions of AirTable. Great tool for tracking volunteer hours, student registration, and collaboration with consultants and team members.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes time on the front end to figure out all the functions of Airtable, but the videos are super helpful and the helpdesk is very responsive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team Collaboration, Data Management
Potential Gamechanger
What do you like best about the product?
We love the different views that you can use to see your data. This type of flexibility is great. It helps change the way you are able to think about your data and visually looks very impressive.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some things it can't do that just don't make sense, like linking across bases. Form data should be able to go to multiple locations. I think there is too much of a reliance on Zapier to fix shortcomings of the software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking for events. Keeping a database for applicants. Creating a digital library for locations of all of our documents.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You will have to change the way you think about your data. This is not Excel so it does take time to get used to if you are still thinking in those terms.
