  • Review provided by G2

Very flexible for our scheduling needs and ability to collaborate withs lots of people on team.

Unclear which features are pro and a bit of learning curve. However, users of all levels of experience can use

We are able to navigate a range of different scheduling challenges


    Non-Profit Organization Management

Spreadsheet simplicity with database power.

  • June 25, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The UI is very intuitive and easy to pick up. The blocks functionality works the way you'd wish all office suites did with great design, powerful functionality, and easy to understand features.
What do you dislike about the product?
Integrations are a little bit limited, but as they expand this will become a tool you can't work without.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're migrating our Access Database files to Airtable so that folks will actually use them. Finally, we're able to visualize multiple data-sets across time in a way that actually will make them relatable and useful for our stakeholders.


    Public Relations and Communications

Airtable is an amazing, flexible collaboration tool

  • June 25, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has a ton of flexibility. The databases themselves can be really varied, with lots of different field types, but what really sets this tool apart is the ability to create different "views" into the same database – like a form view for adding new records, or a filtered view for a specific team member who only needs to see certain information.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's always more features to ask for ... I was waiting a while for the calendar view to be built out more extensively, but that has arrived now!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have used Airtable to streamline the flow of information into our marketing and communications team. Using form views to collect information, and then creating a workflow behind the scenes, integrated with Zapier and Asana, has allowed us to really leverage a small team, and cut down on email volume significantly.

Did you ever wish you could...? Well, Airtable can

  • June 25, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the fleixibility Airtable gives me for organizing all kind of data.

I can enter any kind of data (text, images, dropdown) and use it for almost everything I can think of.

So many times did I think "if only I could use Google sheets to do this or that" - and I could never make it happen - but with airtable (/and zapier) I feel like I have programming superpowers without any code.

It is tryle an amazing product for a modern knowledge worker trying to get control of their information and flow.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have no complaints - I still find new features and techniques (from their blog/forum/"universe") that I can use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organize data for my colleagues - quick and clear business decisions - data-gathering.

Great online database for research, organising and planning

  • June 25, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simple interface, no learning curve at all
Well designed interface, good for presentations
Good with images, which gives it an upper hand over Microsoft excel
Convenient for sharing with other researchers working on the same project, also good for day to day uses such as planning trips with friends
What do you dislike about the product?
Summary of records can be more extensive, would love to see the different percentages of selected options used.
Colour choices for colour options are quite limited, maybe better to provide a sliding palette?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of large amounts of archival data for research and analysis. Currently the table format already support me in making simple yet fundamental analysis for my project, can't wait to access more features when I upgrade.


    Financial Services

A great product!

  • June 25, 2018

What do you like best about the product?
Airtable looks at problems and solves them in an amazingly simple way. We have been struggling with spreadsheet concepts for decades, Airtable looks st them with fresh eyes and carefully shows us a truly refreshing approach.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven’t found anything that I dislike, and I can sense an approach with this group that will take any suggestions and quickly incorporate them into their model.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am headed toward Team collaboration. Have tried things in the past and experienced pushback. People dislike change, but zo think it will be different then s time as everyone gains experience and sees how brilliantly this software performs.

Productivity software has never been so much fun

  • June 25, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Beautiful software that combines the functionality of Excel and Access. So much potential to speed up our processes and get our data working in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the views work perfectly for what we need, sometimes they don't. Some features feel like they're designed with software dev teams in mind, and don't quite fit what we need as an education business.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting all our data into one place. Opening up our data for everybody to use. It's combined about 10 documents into one place. We mainly use it to manage funding grants, the 20+ programmes we run each year and the 20+ temp staff we supervise.

Simple, powerful and secure

  • June 24, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is so easy to just get started - I was up and running in 10 minutes and was surprised at just how easy and intuitive it was to link data. I did not have to look at any of the instruction videos - it was all logically laid out and I just followed my nose.
When it comes to data entry, I love how Airtable does complex tasks - linking to more than one record of another table at a time is completely effortless, and there are a great variety of field types available. Linking to other tables is also so easy - live searching of matching records has saved me hours of time (and possibly my sanity).
Airtable is an absolute pleasure to work with
What do you dislike about the product?
Filtering and searching can be a little fiddly for shared views. It would be great to have a more powerful search that, instead of just highlighting matches, shows *only* the matches. The search also doesn't cover any free text fields, though this is an option when upgrading to the Pro plan
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a choir, we have a large back-catalogue of (over 25 years!) of sheet music which we need to be able to refer back to. Being able to sort or filter the music based on things such who arranged the music, the genre, the parts, the artist, etc is very important.
Airtable has made it so easy to do this in a friendly and easy to use way. Our non-technical staff can easily add new music or search existing pieces and we are able to link directly to PDF files of the sheet music, making management of well over a thousand musical arrangements an absolute breeze!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
After a pretty exhaustive search of online databases, Airtable is definitely one of the better products out there. It does a great job of presenting fundamental database concepts in an extremely easy-to-understand way. The ability to live-search linked records as you entering data is gold.

More than you see at first sight

  • June 24, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
At first sight, you see a solution for real states vendors. A lot of colours. But when you try it, the first surprise is the ease of implementation.
The second surprise is Blocks. There a lot of needs when you work with hardware like bar scanners or label printers. With Blocks, you can find workarounds to avoid developments.
The multiplatform capacity and the mobile apps allow using Airtable in different environments.
What do you dislike about the product?
Almost the important issues of Airtable are related to user interface/experience. For example, not there is any way to prevent the creation of records accidentally when you work in Grid view.
The lack of an autonumber option that backs to next value when you delete the last record created accidentally.
No there are professional solutions to export bases.
Blocks are a game changer on Airtable, but they need more development.
The file upload from Google Drive is not good.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable allows resolving urgent needs related to databases solutions.
Any user with experience on spreadsheets can create a solution without waste time explaining the problem to a developer.
The benefits are the excellent use of time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Airtable, at first sight, seems a solution for non-professional customers. But just try it. Is a really professional tool for a lot of needs in a company.
You can use Airtable to mockup solutions. But is probable that a lot of mockups will transform in final products without leave Airtable.

A revolutionary product for any management or organizational needs!

  • June 23, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how Airtable makes database use easy for the everyday consumer. I am not a tech savvy person so Airtable gives me the power and features of Microsoft Access but no need for the expertise. I can organize any type of information using Airtable. I use the Pro version for my non-profit business but also have a basic account for my own needs. I have organized my book collection, done personal budgeting, and organized digital media and documents. For the product to be free for people to use I am shocked that it has not caught on like wildfire. I can tell that Airtable is only going to get more powerful from here. I can think of a ton of different applications and additions they can make and I am sure they are already in the works. Hop on this train now and be there for the awesome evolution that is to come. I try to tell everyone about this product.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have no complaints about the platform. I am looking forward to the growth of the business and the additional Blocks (i.e. integrations). I think that if I had to say anything was a dislike, it would be the price. But as a small non-profit we are always looking for ways to save money for direct service use. The price is not a deal breaker though. I can't imagine living without Airtable at this point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable gives my non-profit organization a way to organize all of our information, plan upcoming events, and communicate with our volunteers in a seamless way using some great Blocks (i.e. Twilio). We can get information seamlessly using their form capabilities which is helpful when gathering all types of information.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There is no reason to hesitate. Just try it out, the basic plans are free and still give you a great taste of what you can do and get out of the product. Depending on the purpose of your use you may never event need a paid version of the product.
