The right toolkit to organize and manage all kinds of projects and tables.
What do you like best about the product?
Its modern GUI makes working with this software truly a pleasure, its excellent design makes navigating its functions, menus and views a pleasant experience. There are several options to visualize different types of data which help a better appreciation on the part of the user and therefore a better understanding of what they are observing, this adds to the software adaptive capabilities that are so necessary to satisfy even the most demanding of its users.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their limited permissions options offered to users is one of the weakest points of Airtable because with a very granular permission group allows users to have better control over how they want to manipulate and have their documents. Because it is not a software specialized only in spreadsheet creation does not offer robust features for this so for users who are used to working with spreadsheet based software this will seem a little featureless.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before the incorporation of Airtable I did not find a software that met my needs for various reasons since they were either very limited to only offering spreadsheet functions or were very poor in features, after finding Airtable I knew it was the software for me because it gave me in a unique way everything I needed, a tool that offered more functions than just editing and creating spreadsheets but that met all my organizational needs for personal projects or related to my work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Airtable turns out to be much more than it seems to be, it's certainly not just a software to create spreadsheets because it takes its functionalities further by offering a collaboration environment between colleagues, improves the organization of your work by providing you various options that are shaped to the requirements you may have as a user or as a company. Their customer support is genuinely user-friendly, they give you the right solution to your problems quickly and in a simple way so that any user no matter their technical level can understand.
Most important tool I use
What do you like best about the product?
So easy to use and visually appealing. I can change the layout of notes and tasks depending on what I need. Everyone I have shared Airtable with ended up using it for their project management.
What do you dislike about the product?
I honestly cannot think of anything I dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Benefits are productivity increase, organization, and helping multiple teams be able to view the same sheet to stay on the same page.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try the free trial and get the feel. Yes, there is a bit of learning curve involved as it is different from many other task management programs. Really set some time aside to play around with it. Make multiple 'workspaces' and see how it feels for your needs.
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.
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.
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.
Using AirTable to manage dynamic relationships
What do you like best about the product?
AirTable is extremely user-friendly. It allows you to easily set up tables and build relationships between them. Also, the multiplicity of features gives you ample tools to accomplish your tasks. I have been able to use AirTable to manage a complicated program and have show it to other colleagues who are implementing AirTable to solve other solutions.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like that you cannot link records between bases. It would be helpful to have them link to other records so we can have large amounts of information in one place to disseminate to other bases as needed. Also, there is not much flexibility when it comes to embedding views on websites.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to track relationships between hundreds of legislators and our members as we facilitate the building of relationships. We are able to centralize our program and give access to those who need to see the information.
Best Organization Tool for Work
What do you like best about the product?
I am big on having something for organization and Airtable offers it! I like how easy it is to organize clients and their information while also being able to share it with my coworkers. We have a ton of clients we work with so I also love the tagging system in Airtable and how we can organize clients with tags. This had made workflow easier and has given us the chance to get more clients and build our business from the ground up.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the biggest thing I dislike is Airtable seems to switch over the tabs and filters when someone enters new ones or is viewing something. This makes it a little difficult for me and my coworkers to use it at the same time. We all work in different locations of the country so it's hard to communicate who is using what. It would be easier if filters and things like that changed if there are multiple users viewing projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's really helped us with organizing clients. Like I mentioned we have a ton of clients and it can get confusing but with the filter and tag system it's much easier to navigate clients and get their information.
Airtable is my new favorite
What do you like best about the product?
It’s such an easy way to organize my information and separate into folder areas.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish it could copy a folder and than allow for adjustments to be made from there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it to organize my clients information and it’s made it all easier to read and access.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you don’t like Trello or Asana this is the one for you. It’s a great mix of the two systems.
