Perfect solution for multiple spreadsheets
What do you like best about the product?
As a nonprofit, tracking grant funded projects was starting to become a nightmare with separate spreadsheets for each project, bunches of formulas to try not to screw up, and reporting headaches. I discovered Airtable, and managed to get a hold of all of my grants in on, colorful, easy to use base.
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometimes have trouble with linking properly... but that's my fault not Airtables. I'm still learning just what all can be done with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Nonprofit. Grant funded projects (wildfire thinning and at-risk youth training)... previously having multiple spreadsheets for each project, figuring out how to produce reports from each for funders... Ugly :) Now I have one base where all data from all projects can be stored, and viewed multiple ways, making it a whole lot easier for me to keep track of everything.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a shot... the free version can do incredible things and when you need more advanced features the price is not unreasonable
Excellent collaboration tool for non-profits
What do you like best about the product?
This tool is a life saver! I am starting to wonder how I ever worked without it. My team has been using it for event planning, grants management, donor management, and more. If you are asking yourself, "Why shouldn't I just use Google Sheets?" the answer is because the functionality and customization of Airtable makes Google Sheets look like a toy. I love the ability to link records, color code, and easily customize field types.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really can't think of anything significant. It took me a few days to get used to the interface but once I figured it out it was so easy to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are tracking data that previously had been lost in emails or outdated spreadsheets. We have also been able to manage a large team of staff and volunteers for an upcoming event and share information between them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I've searched high and low for a tool like this, none compares to Airtable in features and value.
Airtable's so good, we're upgrading!
What do you like best about the product?
The ease and feel of Airtable. and the easy and fast learning curve it take to get on board with it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't used it long enough to find something I dislike. Right now, I am still learning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
project and program management, budget management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give yourself and your employees time to implement and learn.
Great Content Calendar That Promotes Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
I like how we can easily transition from a table view to a calendar view. This is especially helpful since we primarily use Airtable as a content calendar. We can see what's coming up, what still needs work, and what will publish when. It's nice to be able to drag and drop records within the calendar view if we need to rearrange our publishing schedule.
We have several different people contributing and editing within our organization's blog and website and this makes it easier for us to collaborate with each other and organization information. It's easy to send other team members notes and to assign them tasks.

What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice if there was a way to set up automated alerts. For example, if we put a due date on a task, an alert is automatically generated and emailed to whoever is assigned to the task. Perhaps there is a way to do this is a paid version but we have yet to find this feature and use it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to manage our content and visualize it on a calendar easily and it has really streamlined our editorial process. Recently our content has increased and this tool helps us manage it and ensure that our blog is constantly publishing new material on a consistent basis.
We can see ourselves using this more and more to manage updating other areas of our website, especially those sections that require constant content updates. We also have a few large projects on the horizon that we'd like to use Airtable for.

Great Lightweight Database/Spreadsheet Solution
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is easy to set up and easy for users to pick up and do the things they want. The interface is user friendly. Everyone we have introduced it to has found it easy to pick up. Blocks have been a great addition.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the biggest dislike is that you can't have a timestamp when a record is updated. This would be great and have a huge impact on how we use Airtable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Recruitment and Selection of teachers, work planning, applicant tracking, mostly centered around HR processes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Airtable is a great lightweight database solution that is easy for non-technical people to pick up and do advanced things with.
Bringing our organization into the future
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing about AirTable is that it is easy to use and has so much potential for future development. It is also so versatile, we can solve many of our organizational issues with AirTable.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't hit a thing yet. Just to have something here, I would say that it does take some setup time, and working with a person on staff for even one implementation call would be nice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have several. But one is that we need a document management system that allows our instructional designers to enter new records on the content they are developing and for others to easily and with a clean interface search and retrieve that information.
Easy To Use, Easy to Collaborate
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is easy to get non-technical users to work on in the ways that make the most sense to them. Anyone who has used a spreadsheet can become a poweruser of this database tool in hours.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm looking forward to being able to embed blocks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Membership database, basic data vis, better forms. With airtable, we can have and manage a database without having to manage a database.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get everyone using it before making a "big switch." Everyone will come to the same conclusion that it is the right tool for a great number of jobs, but they need to use it to know that.
Great system for expanding collaboration capabilities
What do you like best about the product?
The fluid way Airtable allows our team to collaborate on multiple projects. The interface is extremely well-designed and provides multiple beneficial tools. The design is very intuitive and allows for quick setup of workspaces.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, there is nothing I dislike about Airtable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our company is growing quickly and previously everyone was involved in all details of projects as they happened. As we have grown and hired more people, this is no longer a feasible approach. Airtable provides a great way for our project managers to stay informed about projects without being involved in all the daily decision-making. It also allows team members to collaborate easily on projects in our mobile environment.
Great tool for collaborative spreadsheet work
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has quickly become a crucial part of our work flow management. We are able to instantly access updated real-time databases across all of our community school sites!
What do you dislike about the product?
At this point we haven’t found any issues with Airtable!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving a longtime problem around managing a single database across multiple sites.
