Airtable is amazing and does everything I need it to do
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, easy to solve probems, integration of interfaces
What do you dislike about the product?
I fear that it is focusing too much on AI and high-end clients and leaving the little guy behind. It appears the robust features of interfaces are not fully implemented for lower level users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting the entire team looking at the same data, eliminating confusion, solving problems, adaptability to my company's needs.
Experience with Airtable for Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
Our firm has implemented airtable for about 6 months and we throughly enjoy and have benefitted from the organization it provides. With the use of automation, we are able to track several ongoing projects in detail as well as sync data across other CRMS. Airtable is a staple in our business operations, as we use it to track employee tasks, but also client tasks and projects. Although I had limited experience with Airtable, there are plenty of useful youtube tutroials and instructions on Airtable that can guide you through its many features.
What do you dislike about the product?
The leaset helpful thing about airtable would be the lack of responses/engagement in the community area, but that is expected. I also wish there was more compatability with payment serves to track payments. We also are having a hard time 2-way syncing data across bases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable is helping us not miss deadlines, invoice clients on a timely manner, keep projects moving, and not forgetting to complete outstanding tasks.
Better than Excel
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has been such a game changer for me in my work. I used to spend hours editing Excel reports to get different kinds of data, but now I can determine that same information in an instant. I also enjoy the fact that it's kind of aesthetic. It's a lot prettier to look at than a spreadsheet.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be amazing to have better integration with other products. For instance, we use Microsoft in my workplace and it would be so helpful to be able to sync between Airtable bases and an Outlook calendar, or to be able to embed an interface into a meeting invitation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Previously, it took me ages to edit the attendance reports that would pull from our ticketing software. Now I'm able to keep a report in real time that makes looking up attendance a breeze. What previously took hours is now instant. I track hundreds of programs from across different areas and Airtable has made it easy to store information from disparate sources all in one easily accessible place.
I also use Airtable to -
* Keep a to-do list/handy list of resources and bookmarks
* Maintain a staff directory/org chart (I send a form to new staff to fill out then generate the org chart from their responses)
* Schedule meetings and trainings for teams of 30-50 people (I created an interface for staff to be able to look up agendas easily)
* Track budgets
* Generate charts for presentations

Airtable helps keep me organized and automates part of my work
What do you like best about the product?
I love Airtable because it's easy to collaborate, update, and automate certain workflows with integrations to a variety of other tools and services.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a bit of effort to create a new base and make sure to set it up in a future-proof way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable helps solve issues around organization, project management, and collaboration. It helps keep me organized on my deliverables and lets my stakeholders see progress on my projects.
Airtable: a really incredible tool for project management and organization
What do you like best about the product?
How intuitive it is and how easy it is to upload and track links, files, and photos
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it was better at processing data and dashboard building
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to track a lot of photos and files and have a summary that is easy to pull up and discuss with other teams. Airtable excels at this
A tool for herding creatives (in the best way)
What do you like best about the product?
Once I was able to understand how Airtable is able to take simple data, and then filter it into views of information that can tell you insightful stuff: like, how many projects a designer has at any given time, how much time is being wasted on edits, how many projects actually help us hit our goal - it became a game changer. Customizing the data to show you what you need to know is pretty easy once you get the hang of it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm still trying to get the hang of building and using Interfaces. It's a little hard when I don't have tons of time to just sit and experiment until I get something right. More templates for various job roles (like a multimedia creative director - hint, hint) would be awesome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping us document subject matter expertise, process, current workload, resource allocation and project timelines, as well as tracking expenses that pertain to outsourcing services.
backbone of our operations
What do you like best about the product?
public interfaces (embedded sharing), automations (including sending emails), forms, linked records, rollups, formula writing assist with ai!
What do you dislike about the product?
i wish the forms functionality was more advanced, like better conditional visibility of questions, record picker in forms, ranked preference questions, etc.
Or, I could really really use new integrations with FERPA-compliant, especially qualtrics, polleverywhere
Lastly, some calendar integrations via automations are not really working for our team, and it's difficult to do event outreach operations...

Incredible and Easy to Use Database for All Types
What do you like best about the product?
I love the integration with a variety of services that help streamline my automation flow. Implementing this into my workflow has been a simple and yet capable tool to utilize as a CRM, contact database, and task manager.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do wish that there was more customization with plans in regards to AI credits. My current plan does not allow for purchasing additional credits.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has become an all-in-one platform for streamlining our project management, CRM, and other useful tools for our business.
I've been waiting years for a tool like Airtable
What do you like best about the product?
If you're a person who likes to keep track of things, Airtable is an essential part of your tech toolbox. It's fast and easy to create simple databases, and it's possible with time and effort to build complex databases. The automations enable you to notify anyone you need or move records thru a workflow.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not always as well documented as possible. The support forum usually has an answer to my question, but it often takes a couple clicks to find it. Be patient and persistent to find the guidance you need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For discrete mini projects, it's more practical than using a full on project management tool. For our biggest dataset we need to manage, it enables complex data management and analysis.
A Powerful tool for small and large businesses, with some room for enhancement
What do you like best about the product?
I love how intuitive Airtable is. From the start it is easy to get set-up, and in a short time, more use-cases become evident. Airtable has integrations (either directly or via 3rd party tools like Zapier / Make) with nearly everything.
What do you dislike about the product?
Airtable tries to bridge the gap between a spreadsheet and a database. It's ease-of-use approach comes at the cost of some basic database functionality, such as being able to pull data from linked tables (you have to add lookups, which makes tables bloated at scale). In addition, Interfaces lack a robust way of customizing visibility/editability based on group-level permissions, meaning multiple interfaces need to be created, and maintenance becomes time-consuming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable allows us to track vendor relationships, contracts, and quotes for large projects - as well as budgeting and approval flows for those projects.
