Absolutely awesome!
What do you like best about the product?
It's great to have a spreadsheet and database combo to use to follow up with clients. For me, I help direct sales marketers with social media services, and recently with other services like getting mailing lists, and introducing them to ways to keep that mailing list straight. I have a client who uses AirTable and loves it because not only can you set up all your contacts/customer leads, and a calendar for them, but also add notes.
Also, it's awesome that there are existing templates for creating a calendar, because whether you need a calendar for customers, or for social media and blogs, or running ads, or whatever, it makes it intuitive to set up a calendar.

What do you dislike about the product?
It's nice that you can use the software to create forms, and then have people's form responses added to a database. But it would be better if you could make a "pretty" form/survey with pictures and backgrounds, the way you can in Google Forms. (Or, you can, but that's only a feature if you pay $50 and my client does not want to do that.)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable and its way of switching between Grid view and Calendar view provides a great way of networking and FOLLOWING UP WITH a large list of people -- perfect for direct sales marketers! It's easy to create custom form fields.
Like, what my client did was create a "Follow-Up Date" field, so she could see when and if she had followed up with new leads. And then that was visible in both the spreadsheet and database parts of Airtable. It really helped her make sure that no new leads slipped through the cracks (and that no customers who had reached out to her felt forgotten).

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Have an Excel CSV of your contacts list ahead of time -- that will save you even more time importing everything into Airtable! Also, if you have peers in your industry, the two of you can share/see each other's databases and compare notes.
Great interface and easy to use!
What do you like best about the product?
I run a talent agency, and I am able to organize my roster of actors, dancers, and models based on any attribute I pick -- and I can sort them by their headshots! It's by far the best interface I've ever used for this.
What do you dislike about the product?
I started with a personal account, and now my accounts are linked. It's more difficult to fix this than I wish it was.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before I had to manually search talent, but now their comp cards are sorted easily. When I open their main headshot, I am given far more detailed information, and I am able to link interview notes to their staff profiles. Clients love seeing screenshots of this.

What do you dislike about the product?
There have been many times I needed airtable to do a lot more and found it far too simple.
Can't link data across bases, can't create unique formula's down a column, its 1 or none.
When adding to a linked database and making a new entry there is zero warning you are adding something that is not linking making new records in place you don't want them.

All the information you need to share in one place
What do you like best about the product?
What I love about Airtable is all the way it was available to show the information to your team and how easy it is to customize it, too. It's also very simple to customize all the options available as well as tag all the people and coworkers involved in the project. It really is a wonderful tool!
What do you dislike about the product?
It has a high learning curve. It takes some time to get used to it. but once you do, it's worth it. Sometimes it gest a bit confusing having all these options without knowing what to do with them. That's why it's so important to take a few minutes to learn how to use Airtable properly. I'd love to watch some videos, a webinar, or even some tutorials related to how best to use Airtable. Maybe a Learning Hub would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use airtable at work to document our progress in several content and digital marketing projects along with several coworkers around the world. It's simply the best solution we found to have all our information and progress in one place. We use it to keep tabs on articles, comments, interactions, product descriptions, off-page SEO tasks and many other projects and to-dos related to our daily activities.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the time to explore all the features and to ensure you get to know how to use Airtable the best, it's going to be worth it after a while.
Meets my OCD needs for organization
What do you like best about the product?
I love that it is a colorful yet clean platform that can easily create charts, galleries and other integrations either through its blocks or through its views. I love that everything syncs online whether on telephone or desktop. I also love that I can embed a row of data off of AirTable onto my Wordpress website or onto social media. It's a glimpse/window into my digital life!
What do you dislike about the product?
While you can't edit forms on the telephone, I was surprised that uploading camera images was not always guaranteed. Sometimes the photo would be lost since it was not uploaded and was not saved onto my phone while in the app. But, when it has worked, it is exactly what I've needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm a sole proprietor, so I'm a one man show. I use AirTable to create forms, to keep track of many databases for businesses, and I use it to keep track of my own belongings. Because it is an online database, I can cross-categorize and add details and notes that I can then share with others to view, or I can even download my work and import it into Google sheets as needed. Without AirTable, I would still be driven mad about how to match a photograph with a row of data, and I would be utterly confused as to how to keep track of mapping data centrally.
We love Airtable!
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to organize projects and tasks is so helpful for our company!
What do you dislike about the product?
How much it costs to add people. Most of the time we have clients who need to approve the content we draft in AT, so we have to export the data and send to them separately.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organizing and project management has been solved for your company with AT!
Great Interface and collaboration cpabilities
What do you like best about the product?
AirTable is a low priced cloud based solution, provides data privacy while offering intensive collaboration features for large companies
What do you dislike about the product?
Since it's in the cloud, you have to go through some legal hurdles for sensitive data
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Centralized tool for sharing and collaboration with user intuitive tools to replace sharepoint.

What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has become a huge asset to our company and product management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not really anything...if I had to say something it would be that you can do so much with Airtable it can be overwhelming!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving lots of problems with Airtable - organization, product management, content placement.
Couldn't be happier!
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable combines all of the features of many other software programs I've been using into one easy platform. It's many integrations and features make organizing records, building CRMs and running reports easier than ever.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes awhile to get to learn the software and it can be complex depending on what you are trying to do with the program. I think that it works best if you start by watching some of their online video tutorials or use one of their pre-made existing templates.
