Wonderful experience switching many community street festival's information systems over to Airtable
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Airtable is a beautifully designed tool that lets me implement my own collaborative, domain specific, streamline solutions to a variety of projects. For me, as a database professional, Airtable has proven to be incredibly empowering as I design workflows and mini-apps for the data intensive projects I get involved in. The idea of a intuitive, collaborative and online, and elegant relational database system hits the sweet spot for so many projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really comes to mind other they could work on their pricing structure so they are appropriate options for all scenarios
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a collaborative, database backed, information system, with online forms for our community street festivals to replace our unruly Google Doc system that we had built up over the years. It landed beautifully and our festival organizers and volunteers love it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it for a small project that requires a database first to see the power
Excellent cooperation and database tool for our NGO
What do you like best about the product?
Availability as web app, for PC, Mac, Android an iOS. Easy to use and understand - no training required! Absolutely 100% reliable - once you add data, Airtable will not lose it. Crowd contribution and sharing is excellent!
What do you dislike about the product?
Handling of dates in european format could be better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With more and more data accumulating over the years, spreadsheets were becoming increasingly insufficient for us. We knew we needed a database that was easy to handle, required minimum to no training for users and available on PC, Mac und mobile devices. Airtable did all that and more for us.
Fantastic! Airtable is intuitive and easy to use; but amazing powerful.
What do you like best about the product?
You can easily link spreadsheets to each other and transition seamlessly between views. And virtually no training is needed because it is so well designed.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, so good. I really have trouble thinking of potential improvements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are keeping a remote team of collaborators from different organizations organized on team.
Shows Promise - Not There yet
What do you like best about the product?
Cross platform capability. Real time collaboration features. Customizable views to suit multiple users
What do you dislike about the product?
Cloud hosting makes interface slow and laggy. Cloud hosting also raises security concerns. No option for local hosting and no intention to offer it soon. Lack of integration with mainstream office applications such as Microsoft OneNote or outlook. Continued UI bugs - particularly with file attachment system. Customer service responds quickly but has yet to take seriously any reported bugs or requests for feature upgrades.
Lack of any real tools to perform quantitative analysis
Rudimentary print interface limits usefulness as a report generation tool

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Activity and issue tracking.
Has allowed for much higher team integration in reporting and tracking progress and has increased level of collaboration and insight across the organisation

Connecting our team
What do you like best about the product?
We like the simplicity of Airtable and ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
With the time that we have spent so far using Airtable, one wish would be to have the bases connected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were using too many spreadsheets that were not connected. Airtable allows us to consolidate our information to a centralized location from where our team can collaborate.
Great for Visual Thinkers!
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to view my tasks and plans in whatever visual mode my brain is feeling on a particular day.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish there was a small team option where I could admin a group account for my small non-profit team, rather than separate accounts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Task management! A huge part of my work is event and training planning, and airtable allows me to map out every piece in detail and keep myself on top of easy to forget tasks and contacts. The multiple view options, and the option for a column to refer back to another table is what really makes it above and beyond other task management options for me.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't set yourself up to rely on the software before you've had plenty of time to figure it out!
Organization & Interconnectivity Is Just...Wow
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to link anything and everything to everything else, without being complicated and cumbersome. I can get the info I need quickly and easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Just one thing...Airtable isn't HIPAA compliant...yet. I work in Healthcare Information Technology (HIT), and I'm still using it in my organization, but not to it's full potential. Once it becomes HIPAA Certified, there will be nothing to dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A level or organization and collaboration like never before, especially with project management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The only thing that's lacking, for healthcare purposes, is HIPAA Certification.
I also plan to implement this to manage the many projects at my church. I think this would be perfect for it!

Great tool for team collaboration & Communication, and project management
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has been a great tool for collaboration and communication on projects across several teams. We like the ability to share bases with various rights and privileges, and also the ability to share view only access with anyone at the agency via a link.
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently, using the free version there is not an easy calendar view or gandt chart view like some other tools we've used. However, we will be upgrading to a paid version for improved features for this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Transparency and real-time information have been the key benefits in using Airtable to date.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We started searching for products to use for project management, and Airtable is great for this, but also for team collaboration, team communication, and data tracking. It is also very flexible and customization.
Wow! Solved our NGO's DB challenges in a hurry!
What do you like best about the product?
We were able to upload our existing Excel files for our clients and sponsors and customize them within AirTable very quickly. The multiple views of our data including the Blocks features, putting our data on maps and charts is exceptional. The ability to construct an input form for field data capture on smartphones is outstanding. AirTable solves many of our data challenges in a hurry!
What do you dislike about the product?
The price can be a bit of a challenge but AirTable provides discounts for charities that make it much more affordable and worth the investment!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to track our homeless clients in Cambodia from interview through to the building of their new homes and beyond. Airtable gives us many tools to do this very efficiently and effectively and to communicate with our teams and sponsors along the way. It will save us time and money and allow us to build more homes for the homeless. Thank you! 🙏🌞
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is definitely worth a look, especially if your team are not database professionals.
Staying organized and informed with Airtable
What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate the options and ability to have so much control over the tables and databases. You can create so many unique fields and columns to customize the databases to your exact needs. Even more so, I most like how easy it is to use!
What do you dislike about the product?
So far I don't have many (or hardly any) complaints. The one feature I would like to see eventually is the ability to link databases together, rather than only being able to link tables within one database. But there are ways to work around this.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm hoping to solve several key issues in our area. The most important is to have one unified place to easily get important information and data from. This is helping to improve workflow, efficiency, and organization for several key employees.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend this product to anyone that has plans to implement databases, especially if the thought of learning MS Access makes you uncomfortable. I'm blown away at the ease of use and how customizable it is.
