TRANSFORMING the way my team manages projects
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has truly transformed the way we manage projects and events. What I appreciate most is its comprehensive functionality that goes far beyond a simple spreadsheet. Unlike Excel, Airtable combines the power of a database with the ease of a user-friendly interface, making it an indispensable tool for both data management and collaboration.
One of the standout features is the ability to capture data through professional-looking forms. This not only elevates the experience for participants and stakeholders but also ensures that the information is collected in an organized, structured way.
What makes Airtable even more powerful is its robust integrations. From automatically replying to people when they submit a form, to creating calendar invites, sending follow-up emails, and handling countless other tasks, Airtable streamlines processes that would otherwise require multiple separate tools. These automations save valuable time and reduce human error, which is especially crucial when coordinating events or managing complex projects.
In my experience, Airtable has made event planning and project management significantly easier and more efficient. It consolidates tasks that used to be fragmented across different platforms into one centralized hub, giving us the flexibility and confidence to execute projects smoothly.
Simply put, Airtable is far more than a spreadsheet substitute—it’s an all-in-one productivity and organization platform that empowers teams to work smarter, not harder.

What do you dislike about the product?
One challenge I’ve experienced with Airtable is not with the platform itself, but with the learning curve and the sheer breadth of functionality it offers. While the advanced integrations—such as calendar invites and automated email replies—are incredibly powerful, at present only one member of our team has the expertise to build them out, which sometimes slows adoption for the rest of us. Additionally, Airtable’s depth means that our advanced user often adds robust features that can feel overwhelming for novice users to keep up with. In many ways, Airtable is almost too powerful. I would love to see more streamlined training tools, quick-start guides, or templates that help flatten the learning curve and make it easier for all team members, regardless of experience, to maximize the platform’s full potential.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable is helping us manage and facilitate our largest projects and events all in one place. The greatest benefit has been the ability to create events and instantly send calendar invites and follow-up emails with just a click. This level of automation has streamlined our processes, saved us valuable time, and ensured that nothing falls through the cracks.
Airtable is a game changer for any size business
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is so flexible, we use it for so many different things in our business, and we train others to use it as well. We are a workforce development org, training small businesses, nonprofit professionals and veterans on all aspects of managing a business. We use Airtable to provide a toolkit with each course, so a gallery of resources that is included with every topic. And we teach thousands of people to use it every year across a variety of use cases in their own businesses. The fact that it is free or mostly free is a big deal as many of our participants are very small businesses or just getting started. But the system itself also really helps people work together - for example, our marketing team thinks and plans visually but our IT team thinks and plans in data - having multiple views of the same information makes it so everyone can use the same tools together and we don't lose information or time switching between platforms to communicate. Airtable completely changed the way we manage our customer relationships as well. We're able to provide Hybrid services where we do some of the work and the client can weigh in by using Airtable as a client hub.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it were easier to make tables talk to each other but I'm sure that is coming or that I just need to learn more. It used to be easier to find the Universe tab for seeing how others use the tools. That is also a great help. I once used an airtable created by my own cousin and didn't even realize she was an airtable user, she is out of state and we barely talk but her set up was perfect for what I needed. I just happened to see her name and texted her to ask if it was her on the airtable site. :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps clients visualize what we do for them, helps class participants see how simple some of their day to day operational processes can be if they would use a tool like airtable, helps us deliver Toolkits easily that make our particpants very happy, helps set us apart as a training partner for cities and counties -- example: one city held some classes that were not provided by us, so they did not include our signature toolkits (made and shared with airtable) and people were calling the city to complain that they didn't get a toolkit at those extra classes. The city is trying to figure out how to create them (we showed them how!)

The flexibility that it provides. I was able to create a better CRM in a month than my previous company that spents millions on a customs on trying to perfect.

Pivot tables. Trying to build a complex sales commission structure inside of it which pivot tables that i can build formulas onto has made some stuff that would otherwise be easier in excel more difficult. that is the only thing though

It is solving the need for a CRM, a web scrapper, a TMS, finance software for commissions and AR/AP.

Airtable's biggest fan!
What do you like best about the product?
You can build (almost) anything in Airtable. In my two most recent roles, I have introduced Airtable as a flexible platform that could help create a centralized hub of information that allows both internal and external collaborators work together better. Whether it be for content management, customer management, or event management- Airtable is incredibly versatile, easy to learn, easy to teach, and always evolving to better serve its users.
What do you dislike about the product?
Airtable's automations and interfaces are still evolving, and can be a little difficult to learn how to use if you aren't lucky enough to have access to a customer success manager.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Airtable as an integrated event management system for a performing arts center, connecting with a CRM within our base, a content calender, etc. It has become a one stop resource for our organization.
A Platform to Use!
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy that Airtable is able to keep our information in a tidy space, while being easy to navigate with our teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the new monochromatic color that Airtable uses for its logo, bring back the fun color!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable is solving the problem of our information being scattered between different teams, now we have a single platform where we can all share and process information.
Easy, Reliable and Effective!
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Airtable is its ease of use. The interface is clean, intuitive, and makes data management feel approachable even for those without technical backgrounds.
Another standout feature is its speed and accuracy — creating, updating, and filtering records happens in real time without lag, which makes collaboration smooth and efficient.
Finally, Airtable is an excellent low-code solution. Its built-in automations, integrations, and customizable fields allow you to create powerful workflows without needing deep programming knowledge. You can quickly prototype, test, and deploy solutions that would take much longer in traditional database or spreadsheet tools.
Overall, Airtable delivers a great balance between simplicity and power, making it an ideal platform for teams that need flexibility, speed, and minimal learning curves.

Data analytics and mass reporting.
Keeping Projects and Programs on Track with Airtable

Airtable has been an incredibly useful tool for our team.

It keeps our information organized and accessible, which saves time and reduces confusion.
What do you dislike about the product?
One area I find challenging is utilizing Airtable’s integrations. While I know these features can make the platform even more powerful, I just need to dedicate more time to learning how to set them up effectively.

With staff working in different buildings, Airtable keeps us connected and aligned. We’re able to share real-time updates, avoid duplication of work, and make quicker decisions, which benefits both our team and the people we serve.
