Great platform for app-building, bespoke flows, data gathering and analysis, and more
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is very feature-rich in comparison to the competition, is customizable to many different business types and needs, and is easy-to-use while also providing good access to powerful automation and scripting capabilities
What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface lags behind some of the competition, it lacks organizational features, and there's no straightforward way to handle MoM/YtD-type calculations. Some of the recent AI-additions are half-baked relative to the rest of the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using Airtable to manage our marketing plan across all channels, both to internally streamline and organize ops and to create automated dashboards and reporting views that can be shared with stakeholders. We also use Airtable to handle the logic of specific campaigns and promotions that require some degree of scripting and automation in their flows, and we use user-facing forms to handle surveys and campaign opt-ins.
Extremely Powerful and User Friendly
What do you like best about the product?
The balance of being able to create incredibly powerful data sets then parsing out information using interfaces and views is invaluable. Our entire team is able to operate from one complete data set so that everyone gets all of the updates, in real time, rather than trying to update everyone individually. I am the strongest advocate for AirTable in my workplace. The community forums are also incredibly useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some folks are intimidated by it at first and have a hard time figuring out how to navigate between interfaces and the data set. Automations can be tricky at first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communication between 15 or so people from one central source, rather than outdated excel sheets or sorting through emails.
Super efficient way to organize projects
What do you like best about the product?
I started using Airtable at work for event planning, but now use it for personal use to manage all of my travel logistics. It is fairly user friendly and incredibly helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Mobile version could be a little bit more mobile friendly, but it functions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organizing speaker details, forms that automatically populate into tables
Used Airtable at two companies now for client project management
What do you like best about the product?
I love how customizable it is for different clients. But its also easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more already made templates for client management.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking clients social media strategies in one spot so they can also review alongside us. Being able to share and track large video and photo files.
Powerful and Effective!
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is THE most useful tool my non-profit uses. We use it daily across all team members and I'm sure we're not even scratching the surface of the features available to us. I truly couldn't do my job as efficiently without Airtable. From creating forms, to integrating other apps to talk to Airtable, it's truly a one stop shop for all day to day management of our non-profit.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to see skip logic in Airtable forms. Right now we use Jotform that integrates with Airtable. But it'd be nice to keep everything on one platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collecting data from our membership is the number one problem Airtable helps us solve. We are able to reference historical data and keep everything on one platform.
Customized Solutions & Automations - Streamlining EVERYTHING
What do you like best about the product?
I love how customizable Airtable is for both individuals and teams. The collaboration elements of Airtable is extremely valuable and streamlines the typical back-and-forth on related deliverables, projects, etc. The drag and drop interface is easy to use and get familiar with. From project management, to content planning - Airtable is the most used tool in my toolbox.
What do you dislike about the product?
Due to financial limitations we are only able to provide our partner functions with view-only access to our Airtable content. It would be great if there was a cheaper, collaboration option that would provide partners with access at a reduced price.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable helps us avoid communications collisions by acting as our 'source of truth' content calendar. The customizable views help us all stay on track and avoid information overload - while still being connected to the broader calendar. It's a ridiculously helpful tool, especially when utilizing automations to trigger alerts, syndication to other calendars, etc.
Everything I've Been Looking For!
What do you like best about the product?
It's so user-friendly. I love the look and layout of everything. It's aesthetically pleasing as well as highly functional. All of my coworkers are loving it!
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't found anything yet to complain about. Maybe the fact that I wish it could export to an excel workbook vs. just a CSV.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We made the switch from Google AppSheet to Airtable and it's been one of the best decisions. I needed something that could help me stay organized.
A relational database like Airtable is a game changer
What do you like best about the product?
Linking multiple buckets of information together to form a complex, but accurate picture. Record customizations and table views are limitless!
What do you dislike about the product?
No offline access, the date and time field is hard to work with for schedule-type records, calendar view customization is limited (almost unusable if many records are shown in a day), and print views need more customizations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In past years, my organization had up to 10 different Excel or Word documents all referencing the same information for a month-long event. Any changes made to 1 needed to be changed in all other documents. With Airtable, we can eliminate all documents and simply have Airtable always up to date and changes show up for every organization and contact that we use.
A more powerful Excel
What do you like best about the product?
While I haven't build a base or interface from scratch, we currently use Airtable to manage our headcount. While this is task where excel may be commonly used, leveraging Airtable instead has allowed us to automate many parts of the workflow seamlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be tough to understand the different components of Airtable (base, interface, etc). We have many layers to our Headcount management base which can be hard to understand where the data lives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We don't currently have a headcount tool. Airtable is able to be our one stop shop for stakeholders to submit requests, review data, etc. while we can set up automations on the back end to streamline the process.
Airtable is One of My Go-To Tools I Can't Live Without
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is like a spreadsheet on steroids, and the projects you can use it for are endless. I use it to do things like:
- Host a list-building bundle so I can automate sending relevant emails and create a sales page in Softr
- House all of my digital product surveys and reviews so I can get feedback from students and customers
- Create beautiful interfaces so I can see my data and take action
- And so much more
It's a tool I can't live without in my business, and it integrates with so many things. If you're looking for a robust project management tool, Airtable may be the perfect one for you.

What do you dislike about the product?
There really aren't any least helpful features, but I think it can be a little tricky to learn how to use it at first because it is different. But once you get past those beginner issues, it's easy to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I really love that I can easily connect Airtable to tools like Softr and Fillout. You can make beautiful forms in Fillout, and house all your data in one location. I also love that it integrates with Softr, so I can create self-updating landing pages for sales like Black Friday, when every business has different sales dates. No more manually updating these pages in the middle of the night. I also use it for my affiliate program. I connect it to Softr and create an affiliate hub that makes promoting easy for my affiliates.
