Changes the way we work
What do you like best about the product?
Organise complex information quickly in a great UI for quick access, variable viewing and access anywhere.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would like to export views as reports (CSV usually works fine) or make blocks embedable to external sites
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Airtable for project management and a whole range of business apps in house without need for complex databases or spreadsheets.
Great way to build a database for a nonprofit
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is super easy to get up and running for a nonprofit because of all of the templates (donor management, grant management etc.). The templates help understand how to set up all of the tables and field types. I've used Knack HQ before but Airtable is a lot easier to understand.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't run into any problem yet. I'd like to see a Gantt chart block but I'm guessing they'll add that at some point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our nonprofit needs to track donors, grant opportunities, awards to grantees, educational programs, and a bunch of events. We also do a fair amount of email marketing. The standard CRMs out there don't match up very well for our workflows but we can pick and choose which templates work for us in Airtable.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Airtable is a great product when you need flexible workflows with a wide variety of use cases.
Airtable for scholarly collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I love Airtable’s flexibility to add multiple views for the same spreadsheet (dataset). My research partner and I track the conferences and publications we submit to and have views like “What’s due in 30 Days? 60?” by filtering by date due and status (not submitted).
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing yet, but am still learning how to use all the features!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We could not create multiple views like this with Excel which is all we had before.
Databases made simple and intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable allows me to make databases without having to pretend to be a rocket scientist. The interface is simple and intuitive, yet personalization is possible. It allows me to create more than one database and have an overview of all the ones I have made. On top of that, they synch across all my devices and allow me to collaborate with colleagues.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much to dislike because it does everything I want from a database. The app never crashes, changes get saved automatically and the only hiccup is the difficulty in copying and pasting rows of information from Excel for example.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable allows me to keep track of donors. The biggest draw is how several databases can be linked, so the options are limitless. My whole team can easily access all the donor information and make updates so we always know who our biggest donors are. It has allowed us to target donors individually.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't hesitate, just get it!
Using Airtable to track community partner relationships, activities, communications
What do you like best about the product?
My team spent over a month researching our options for an affordable database solution for our college to track relationships, activities, and communications between our community partners and student/faculty courses and projects. We selected Airtable because we can easily customize the database to do exactly what we want, rather than other pre-packaged CRM tools that did not fit our needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Airtable has met our long list of needs, but we're still figuring out a few items. For example, we know how to create pivot tables using the blocks feature inside the Pro version, but we have not yet learned how to cleanly export the pivot table results (other than copy and paste). Maybe it's possible, but this is one area where we could not find an answer in the otherwise rich documentation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable provided a flexible, collaborative relational database framework that is relatively easy to set up and train others to use, as long as you have a clear idea of what you wish to accomplish.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
First, list your organizational and data needs. Second, try out different tools and compare how well they fit your needs.
Airtable - stellar software, so many uses
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to easily publish bases and collaborate at the field level. I no longer need a variety of other tools when Airtable has such a broad offering to help me run successful projects from start to finish. The Snapshot feature is really easy and gives peace of mind that your data is backed up.
What do you dislike about the product?
Manual copy/paste functionality is a bit slow and sometimes does not trigger on the first attempt.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Curriculum mapping and inventory tracking of assessments. Airtable makes it easy to collaborate with multiple ways to share complex data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Why maintain Slack, Basecamp, and others when you can get all of your work done in Airtable? Airtable makes it so easy to collaborate and is a phenomenal time saver.
Excellent Usability
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, intuitive interface, design. Easy to be an admin, great integrations and API.
What do you dislike about the product?
Just a little slow to respond when applying for non profit status.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating a vital but easy to use database, possibly project management.
Excellent Tool for Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is a super flexible and robust space where my colleagues and I can collate and retrieve info quickly and clearly. It super for sharing out and gives everyone access to the up to the minute info which is crucial for our department.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to get help on the phone for customer service and the proprietary vocab airtable uses to describe basic spreadsheet components get very confusing when using the web-based help tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable helps us get info out of individual emails and into a space where everyone can see it and use it. It is streamlining our communications internally and externally.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is great tool for teams.
Very useful for any org if you have the budget
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to use, and combines functionalities of a relational database with the easy-to-use nature of Google sheets.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unfortunately, the pricing model is not flexible for client facing use. Additionally, your data is somewhat stuck in airtable as the CSV export option is very limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Great for a nonprofit that is always gathering and analyzing data. Anything that used to be done with Google Sheets or Access can be done with airtable.
