Airtable is Great!
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable allows me to use Excel type files and not have to know the ins and outs of the software. I like the customization and personalization options provided. I also like that there is unlimited videos to show me exactly what to do to have the file that works for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don’t like how complex it is to great actual PDF files or printed documents available to share without adding extensions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable solves the problem of locating detail information for clients. Airtable allows me to create a database for each client which house all the needed information and Airtable allows me to link files which save me time.
Great user friendly database for all
What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that you can filter through almost anything and the ease of integration.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do think there are some updates that need to be implemented such as additional views/graphic options, that resemble a nice mix between excel and airtable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable does assist us in holding all document, files, and updates in one place for multiple departments. We look forward to finding more ways this can be even more efficient for our teams.
Airtable for archives
What do you like best about the product?
I have found Airtable's interface to be very user-friendly. It has a powerful structure to take in and share out data in various formats. I like the different interfaces you can build off of 1 table. I appreciate the ability to have people fill out forms that load data into the tables without having to have a license for each individual who is filling out a form. Super easy to change data types, labels, and most everything in Airtable, but I also appreciate the warnings it gives if you're about to impact data in a different, linked base.
What do you dislike about the product?
We're still trying to figure out how best to link data between tables and bases. The other main challenge we have is figuring out what the primary key field should contain so that it is a unique id.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Airtable for a film digitization project. We have bases that track inventory, metadata, digitization, quality control, assets, and more. It allows us to craft forms that students can fill out to populate the bases' tables as they do the work. It also allows us to track progress and provides us with data we can share with stakeholders.
A great productivity tool and useful way to organize any kind of structured information
What do you like best about the product?
It allows me to capture the structure of information and represent it in various ways, sort and filter, and create user interfaces to display and process everything. I can deploy what I create to others at my organization and it can be useful for many people across different use cases.
What do you dislike about the product?
The mobile app is very basic, and doesn't support a large percentage of the features available on the desktop / web versions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking adoption of various partner technologies across our diverse internal teams. Adopting partner technologies allows us to be on the forefront of innovation.
Very easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
The things i like about air table is that it is very user friendly
What do you dislike about the product?
i would say not being able to link to other websites for easy input process
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
not able to added it direct to our data base
Incredibly versatile, Completely Indispensable
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is an amazingly versatile tool, and it brings the power of relational databases into both technical and non-technical users hands. I have many favorite things about Airtable, but for the purpose of this review, I will admit it to just two: automations, and linked records.
Linked records are perhaps the most important feature of Airtable. They are the backbone of a relational database, and the execution that Airtable employs is the best that I've seen for a consumer-facing product. It makes the process of keeping your data together, and related, simple, and easy. And then, once your data is linked, it opens up a whole world of possibilities with things like roll ups and look ups. It's an amazing feature.
Automations are close second. This functionality in the air table effectively brings your app to life, and makes it a real, living, breathing application. It allows you to make your app behave according to rules that you define, and allows your data to interact with other apps and services outside of Airtable. Automations can serve as the bridge between your data and external apps, making it even more useful.
I highly recommend Airtable for people who want to have a single source of truth for their collected data.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are many, many things that I like about Airtable, and only a few that I don't. When you become an Airtable power user, you start to notice the limitations of some of the core functions of Airtable. For example, while the formula field is one of the most powerful in the app, the formulas that you can use in it are somewhat limited, especially compared to something like Microsoft Excel.
Further, there seem to be some arbitrary limitations built into Airtable that just don't make any sense to the end user. For example, in automations, you can currently only use a repeating block or a conditional block and not both. This makes no sense to me, and I wish that you could use them in combination with each other, which would make the whole application even more powerful.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable solves a number of problems for our organization, but perhaps the most significant is having an easy to use and accessible source of truth for critical data that is used by multiple parties in our organization. While there are many ways to centralized data, Airtable makes it really easy to get that data to other downstream parties in a way that makes sense in their workflow.
A Tech-Savvy Tool for Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is amazing for coordinating scalable projects. It can be used singularly or in a group, and the features it offers allow for better organization and coordination.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think it's particularly easy to use due to all of its customizations. If you are very tech-savvy and know how to create very specific projects, it's great, but can be challenging for laypeople to use for relatively simple templatized tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable is helping us track spending, marketing plans, and track our yearly calendar
