Great for overview of project management.
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable provides a great overview for all ongoing projects for a number of departments - marketing, sales, new product features, etc. It's easy to add coworkers, assign due dates, and establish timelines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Airtable is not optimal for managing software development. Also, there are so many potential things you could utilize Airtable for, it can be overwhelming. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I'm letting potential customers know that Airtable is much more than Excel or Smartsheet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable offers a lot more features than products like Excel and Smartsheet. There is more variety to row/column assignments and I love that you can get email notifications when someone mentions you on a project or changes a status.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you can, schedule a demo with an Airtable rep so you can go through the important features that will be most helpful to your business.
Powerful yet accessible
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable feels a lot like a spreadsheet, which makes it easy to get started—but it offers more advanced functionality in an easier to use interface when you need it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because it is a database tool, wrapping your head around how records and fields relate to each other in a more complex setup can be confusing, but Airtable's documentation does an excellent job of explaining things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We moved our vendor pricing records to Airtable. We've seen so many benefits from this. It's faster and easier to update pricing, we can track when records were last updated or changed, and we can share custom views with other people in the company (while hiding fields they shouldn't see).
Airtable makes managing spreadsheets fun

This software makes life so easy with its amazing easy-to-build database sheets. As advertised, you can organize and create any database within Airtable.
What do you dislike about the product?
This software is no Microsoft Excel rival, but it comes in very strong with autosave features, customization, collaborative abilities, and mobile app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This reliable software helps with tracking, data storage, collaboration, and realtime updates when others make changes.
The possibilities seem endless!
What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility is just phenomenal. I was very impressed from the first time I opened Airtable and started creating my bases and tables for visualizing and organizing information in different ways.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not run across many things that do not seem to be user error/ignorance. I have found myself confused on some of the linked fields, thinking it would do more than it does, like sync wherever I have that field in different tables.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I started using Airtable to create a feedback library to easily tag and sort items for reference and tie feedback to specific people, customers, research sessions, etc. and we have gained a really easy way to see an overview of feedback per user/customer and organize our research.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Airtable can handle some pretty creative solutions for the task you are trying to accomplish. It was neat to envision something and have airtable make it easy to make it happen!

I don't like that some features in the free version are limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was able to organize all my onboarding tasks in a detailed base. The grouping, sorting and filter options make it really easy to organize and categorize everything. I can make multiple views for different uses. I also love using it for creating action plans for major projects and assigning roles to colleagues.

Airtable has changed our business for the better!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the customization options. Everything you can dream up, you can make in Airtable. There are very few limitations and things that are limited tend to be implemented very quickly once asked for.
I love the ability to customize Airtable with APIs and other software both through Airtable directly and through Zapier. We have connected our Airtable instance to Slack for ease of use and reminders, etc. It really helps us when needing additional pings for tasks coming up, when expenses are due, etc.

What do you dislike about the product?
I wish Airtable could replace all our products in the office, but we have no real way to make finished reports and proposals using Airtable as of the time being. We could connect to web merge and make documents that way, but we chose not to (and that's on us!). One day we hope to make Airtable the full solution for our office.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Airtable to track thousands of compliance inspections for our customers. It cuts our admin time down to very little time due to the ease of use and many features that it comes with. We also have it push information to Slack via the API.
We also use Airtable to track our expenses for our employees. They have a forward facing form they can use to fill out to submit expenses, and on the back end I have people who can access the tables to approve expenses before they come to me for payment. We also use Airtable to break these reimbursable expenses into specific GL categories so come tax time, we can get the full tax deductions for our employee's expenses!
