Airtable Review

4.0 2 months ago New

Pros:

Airtable has a really nice visual interface and some cool collaboration features, which makes it a breeze to work with your team. Being able to create custom apps without no coding is a major plus too

Cons:

The free version has limited records and features, which is a bit of a bummer. Also the formula options are not as advanced as in traditional spreadsheets, I guess

Airtable is a flexible and powerful tool for milestone

5.0 12 months ago

Comments: . I appreciate that Airtable allows me to integrate with other tools and apps, such as Zapier, Google Analytics, Slack, and more, to automate my workflow and sync my data. I also like that Airtable enables me to share and collaborate on my projects with my team, stakeholders, and clients. Airtable is a tool that adapts to my workflow, not the other way around.

Pros:

I like many things about Airtable, but if I had to choose one, I would say I like its flexibility. Airtable allows you to create and customize your own bases, tables, fields, views, and layouts to suit your specific needs and preferences.

Cons:

Scalability: Airtable has some limits on the number of records, fields, views, and attachments per base, which can affect the performance and functionality of large and complex projects.

Alternatives Considered: Zapier and ClickUp

Reasons for Switching to Airtable: Checking out my options what can give me better results

Comments: Overall experience has been great to be honest

Pros:

This product has been a game changer for my company. Being an Ecommerce business with inventory and teams. It has made it easy to set up bases, automations, dashboard to track a lot. It has made order management so seamless for easy for my teamm less clutter and so many features that has helped the business. Love that I can create multiple bases.

Cons:

It has evolved over the years with their updates. But I think the dashboard can be better. They can definitely take a few features from clickup especially with things like tracking and notes.

Alternatives Considered: monday.com

Reasons for Choosing Airtable: Too expensive and theor formula feature wasn't the best.

Switched From: ClickUp

Reasons for Switching to Airtable: Because it was simpler to use, easier, affordable and we earn points. Really great functionalities and the automations have been so helpful.

Handy Collaboration Software for Remote Teams

5.0 last year

Comments: We've been very happy with the service from Airtable for managing some of our tasks and collaborative environments. It has a very intuitive design, you can just pick it up and start using it as soon as, and it basically requires no setup which was good for our IT resources. Other than that, it's reasonably priced, and maintains good performance even when a few people are working on the same sheet at the same time. Very happy overall.

Pros:

We really enjoy having a lot of different features available that we can explore, mainly stuff like document management, database, and data workflows. It lets you cover different needs without having to get a few separate tools and ten have to sync them together. The ability to consolidate all those feature sunder one roof is also good for the budget of course.

Cons:

I'm not sure if it rises up to the level of tools like Monday and Asana for project management. There aren't as many project customization options and it tends to get a bit all over the place when the number of projects starts to increase. It would be good to have more views for projects and more customizations on the project level.

Alternatives Considered: Smartsheet

Reasons for Switching to Airtable: We were looking for something that was easy to use that we wouldn't have to spend a lot of time learning how to use it. And Airtable looked a lot more intuitive and easy to use compared to Smartsheet which looked a bit complex and clunky

Great application for managing data

5.0 6 months ago

Comments: Great product, in my top 5 recommended software products.

Pros:

It was very intuitive to build something for my own use case and has a lot of capacity to customize it. Aesthetically very pleasing to work with. The formula capabilities are more advanced than other software I've used, it really shines in that department.

Cons:

There are some limitations related to the calendar and it could use some more integrations but not major drawbacks for my use.

Alternatives Considered: Coda and Notion

Reasons for Switching to Airtable: More intuitive for me and more compatible with my workflow.

Great project management and efficiency with Airtable

4.0 last year

Comments: The seamless integration of databases and project management features has not only streamlined my workflows but has also sparked creativity in how I organize and visualize information. The platform's adaptability makes it equally valuable for personal projects, team collaboration, or complex data management tasks.

Pros:

The best feature of Airtable, in my opinion, is its unparalleled flexibility in organizing and visualizing data. The combination of a spreadsheet-style interface with the power of a relational database opens up a world of possibilities. The ability to create custom views, link records, and collaborate in real-time makes it a dynamic tool for projects of any scale.

Cons:

The pricing structure, especially as the team size grows, can become a consideration. More transparent pricing tiers or additional features in the lower tiers could enhance accessibility for smaller teams or individual users.

When it comes to managing information, we trust Airtable

4.0 last year

Comments: The way I organize my app development tasks has been revolutionized by Airtable. The ability to automate mundane, time-consuming procedures is one of my favorite benefits of this software. Smooth linkage between distinct tables and capacity to connect varied data.

Pros:

Opportunity data may be stored and managed effectively with Airtable. It is easy to use, inexpensive, and constantly evolving. When it comes to managing and receiving business possibilities for our marketplace, Airtable is a godsend. I really like how it relates to softrand. WHAM! Now I have a fully operational subscription app.

Cons:

At first, Airtable may seem complicated. There are many features and customization possibilities, making it first difficult to grasp if you are not already proficient with relational databases.

Comments: Airtable was versatile and useful for managing creative projects and tracking design tasks. It took a bit of getting used to, but once familiar, it really streamlined organizing work.

Pros:

Airtable’s combination of spreadsheets and databases stood out, making it easy to organize and manipulate data while offering the flexibility to customize workflows for different projects.

Cons:

This is the cool brother of your office package

5.0 4 months ago

Comments: It has been extremely beneficial and we use it absolutely every day. There are drawbacks, for sure, but once you learn how to navigate it and use this tool, it will be game-changing.

Pros:

Airtable feels like the cool brother of Office packages out there. It is great for keeping track of project statuses, or the status of work left undone. It also allows you to build forms that will populate the data in their version of spreadsheet, which is highly powerful and supports some cool features, such as complex relational data structures, that usually other competitors don't.

Cons:

There are a few downsides to Airtable. As a user, they could offer better reporting and analytics, this way our teams could better understand what is working and what could go better just by assessing data. Also, sometimes it can be a bit overwhelming to use its customisation options.

Great tool for nonprofit donation drive management

5.0 5 months ago

Comments: I managed a nonprofit social services program that took in tens of thousands of donations per year from the public. We needed a way to to organize different "drives" we were conducting and barrels or other resources we were allocating to different companies, school, churches, or other groups that were supporting us. Airtable was a highly powerful product that provided the blank slate we needed to customize to our particular needs and use case. It greatly enhanced our efficiency and visibility into this important part of our business.

Pros:

- So many different use cases -- highly adaptable to operational needs - Tons of integrations with other products - Mobile app is great -- very helpful for mobile workers who need to access and manage database on the go, such as a truck driver

Cons:

I have nothing bad to say about this product!
