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.
Good project management
What do you like best about the product?
It's really visually appealing, so color-coding everything on an editorial calendar makes it easier to find what you're looking for.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish I could make all freelancers viewers on my spreadsheets but only for things that apply to them. It's expensive to add users (even view-only) and even then tough to get them to see only what's applicable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was using a Google Doc previously, but now with Airtable I can have multiple tabs relate to one another as opposed to being completely separate.

If you've got the money, it's worth it!
Great product for prospecting
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, also I know this doesn’t speak to its overall function but I do love the color options within the program. It makes it easy to link contacts and track their progress with your company.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes needing to click through a few too many windows to make a new interaction, it’s workable but gets tedious once in a while.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Faster prospecting, ease of time management.
Online Excel that doesn't drive you crazy
What do you like best about the product?
the ability to color code your different projects, and collaborative abilities
What do you dislike about the product?
Pay wall, I understand this is for businesses but non-profits don't always have money for this
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Online social media calendars, the features mentioned above make it more convenient.
Great project management software
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it has similarities to excel so there isn’t much of a learning curve. I’ve used for managing campaigns. I also really like that tasks can be turned into calendar items based on the due date.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not too much in the way of ganatt charts or other time management features. Some features like
Creating one template and then copying and pasting over isn’t available. Have to use makeshift tactics

Good tool, won’t solve all of your project management needs
It is not the typical spreadsheet creation software you are used to working with.
What do you like best about the product?
I love how it keeps all the information organized for quick and easy tracking, it is particularly good at maintaining shared records that help you organize all your data without the need to create spreadsheets or tables that make your work more complicated. It has very useful and interesting features for editing your documents, such as inserting images, performance dashboards that keep you updated on the progress of whatever tasks or goals you need to achieve. Customer service is responsive, very friendly, with agents who really know the software and offer you the solution you need.
What do you dislike about the product?
For users who are experts in working with software based solely on spreadsheets, the functionalities may seem limited, so they will have to adapt to a more general experience in handling information in the way this tool implements it. The strict levels of permissions it presents for clients, by this I mean that they are limited to either not fully accessing a resource or simply viewing it without editing and sharing possibilities, makes the control over a resource or project very inflexible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has helped me organize my personal and work activities, as I use Airtable for both purposes. The simplicity with which I can build a planning process through the functions it offers has allowed me to be more productive day by day, fulfilling all the proposed activities for the week or for the projects I work on in my company. The use of blocks has improved our company's workflow, making our team efficient in decision-making and collaboration among our team members.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This software is more than a spreadsheet creation tool; the functions it offers lead to the management and design of project plans and activities at a completely new level, with unique organizational properties that adapt to any type of information entered. Regardless of the type of teams that will use it, they will find development, management, and collaboration functions very helpful for their workflow, whether they use it to put together a guest list for a wedding or to keep a development team informed about the software records in a database. The best experience and quality at all times.
