Airtable is great for our High School program
What do you like best about the product?
As someone who has limited experience with databases, Airtable was a welcomed option. Easy, flexible, and simply looks great!
What do you dislike about the product?
The things I dislike would have to be based more on my limited knowledge of dealing with databases and not so much with Airtable itself. Creating formulas is a bit of a learning curve but, again, that says more about me than the program.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As the lead teacher of a program aimed to lead high school kids towards a career in the health field, there's a mountain of data that I need to keep and cross-reference and present to not only the students but also to my team and administration. The ease with which Airtable can let me do this, to say nothing of the printable docs I could make for students and staff, has made this platform indispensable!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A very-welcomed database option, especially for us novice users.

Great Lightweight Database/Spreadsheet Solution
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is easy to set up and easy for users to pick up and do the things they want. The interface is user friendly. Everyone we have introduced it to has found it easy to pick up. Blocks have been a great addition.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the biggest dislike is that you can't have a timestamp when a record is updated. This would be great and have a huge impact on how we use Airtable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Recruitment and Selection of teachers, work planning, applicant tracking, mostly centered around HR processes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Airtable is a great lightweight database solution that is easy for non-technical people to pick up and do advanced things with.
Bringing our organization into the future
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing about AirTable is that it is easy to use and has so much potential for future development. It is also so versatile, we can solve many of our organizational issues with AirTable.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't hit a thing yet. Just to have something here, I would say that it does take some setup time, and working with a person on staff for even one implementation call would be nice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have several. But one is that we need a document management system that allows our instructional designers to enter new records on the content they are developing and for others to easily and with a clean interface search and retrieve that information.
Easy To Use, Easy to Collaborate
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is easy to get non-technical users to work on in the ways that make the most sense to them. Anyone who has used a spreadsheet can become a poweruser of this database tool in hours.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm looking forward to being able to embed blocks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Membership database, basic data vis, better forms. With airtable, we can have and manage a database without having to manage a database.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get everyone using it before making a "big switch." Everyone will come to the same conclusion that it is the right tool for a great number of jobs, but they need to use it to know that.
Great tool for managing team work flow
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has by far been one of the easiest tools to manage and complete tasks/ manage different spreadsheets and database. The filter options are great and the templates help make setting up easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
We are in the trial phase so we have yet to come across something we don't like.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team has been searching for a tool that we can stay on top of team workflow and have transparency of progress and tasks. This tool has the ability to assign tasks to teammates and integrates and easy complete box to check off tasks that have been completed. This is also a great database for keeping all important spreadsheets in one location.
Adaptability as our needs grow and evolve
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has an amazing ability to be adapted and shaped to fit a growing array of use cases.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only a minor issue that the gallery, kanban and calendar views aren’t available in iOS version of the app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy and simple visualisation of data is a massive benefit from using Airtable. From workflow processes to sprint showcases and printing hard copies, our team communication effectiveness is both streamlined and enhanced via Airtable.
Excel, Google Sheets, & a database combined - but a little pricey
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is pretty much the best combination of Excel, Google Sheets, and a database. Think about putting data into a spreadsheet, and then thinking you'd love to display that data in some sort of dashboard. Airtable lets you do this. Need to collect information from people via a form? Airtable lets you do this. Need to have the ability to upload files in cells? You can do this in Airtable too. Need to turn your data into a trello-like Kanban board? Airtable makes adding a view extremely easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think it would make more sense to bill for one account, versus billing per workspace. I like the idea of being able to have multiple workspaces per billing account. That being said - I would not pay for one account that has unlimited workspaces if the current pricing per workspace applied. I think that's entirely too much to ask for the features that Airtable provides. As it stands right now, current pricing is a bit high for the features offered. To make Airtable a really solid replacement for most of your tools, you need the Blocks feature which is only available on the Plus plan.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable provides a new way for us to manage our membership applications, the interview process, and our data in general. We're looking to Airtable to solve many of our problems around collecting data & reporting on that data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely look at the price and your current solutions.
Great system for expanding collaboration capabilities
What do you like best about the product?
The fluid way Airtable allows our team to collaborate on multiple projects. The interface is extremely well-designed and provides multiple beneficial tools. The design is very intuitive and allows for quick setup of workspaces.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, there is nothing I dislike about Airtable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our company is growing quickly and previously everyone was involved in all details of projects as they happened. As we have grown and hired more people, this is no longer a feasible approach. Airtable provides a great way for our project managers to stay informed about projects without being involved in all the daily decision-making. It also allows team members to collaborate easily on projects in our mobile environment.
Great tool for collaborative spreadsheet work
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has quickly become a crucial part of our work flow management. We are able to instantly access updated real-time databases across all of our community school sites!
What do you dislike about the product?
At this point we haven’t found any issues with Airtable!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving a longtime problem around managing a single database across multiple sites.
The database that keeps on giving
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that the data is so easy to manipulate is one of Airtable's greatest features. Linking records can be confusing at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's so easy to adapt to what you need.
What do you dislike about the product?
The lack of functionality around formulas is frustrating, particularly date-based formulas. In this sense, Excel or Google Sheets still remains superior, but there are definitely workarounds.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking of out events, individual's progress on tasks, and easy reporting. Before we transitioned to Airtable, monthly reporting used to take a few hours to collate all the data. Now it's done in less than 15 minutes - huge savings in time!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommend!
