Best App for Prototyping with Data
What do you like best about the product?
User interface is done really well. Workflows are intuitive and powerful. Lots of free extensions and prepackaged code snippets to work with and use Data to prototype custom applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
Airtable is not as scalable as it could be. Increasing users, adding administrative functions, as well as advanced features such as Portals or A.I. become prohibitively expensive quickly. The business model Airtable has now makes it so some companies will simply grow out of it and find something else that's more cost effective.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Streamlined tabulated data that allows quick and effective creation of tables that would otherwise be annoyingly tedious in Excel or Numbers. Given that it is web based, Airtable allows one to flawlessly utilize tables to embed forms or interactive data into other websites and applications without sacrificing beauty or user experience. It's extendability with products such as Data Fetcher allows for quick connections to other databases to develop the proof of concept for more advanced workflows including those that can be automated.
Airtable is extremely configurable.
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Airtable functions as a database first.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the automations could be made to b e easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable is our company directory.
Game changing
What do you like best about the product?
I love that it's able to be a true single source of truth. Even in a legacy business, it's possible to stream all data into the platform and create dashboards that illuminate previously hidden insights.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interfaces are clunky and it's too expensive for all of our internal users to have accounts to enable data editing, so we use Softr as an alternative.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's allowing us to consolidate data all in one place, and provide access to that data across the organization. This primarily impacts the sales and service teams.
All In One Solution
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has become a one stop, all in one solution for so many issues! We need a consolidated way for employees across different sections to submit leave requests digitally - Airtable. We need a way for people to request parking and shuttle service for events - Airtable. Quotes and invoices? Daily reports? Airtable. Employee data tracking..... you can see where I'm going with this. Airtable gives you the building blocks to create whatever you need, and it has become something I use CONTSANTLY for almost everything. It is simple to set up and get going because they lay the builing blocks out simply and clearly for you. The forms and automations make anything possible.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not have any huge dislikes about Airtable. There is no built in way to highlight or remove duplicates, deleting interfaces isn't possible from the home screen.... there are a few cosmetic things here and there but nothing that would stop me from using it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest issue Airtable has addressed is creating a way for customers to submit requests. We create forms for customers that pull all the data we need into a table. Automations save us hours in emails and notifications.
Enjoying the collaboration and commenting
What do you like best about the product?
Ability for multiple users to collaborate on records and keep a sparate chat on each record.
Lately, we've been impressed with the ChatGPT integration. Linking the prompt to client fields has been a huge game changer for us in creating social captions.
Love the formula fields and how quick they are.

What do you dislike about the product?
Don't like that you can't change the data entry on the record detail. Many mistakes are made because this screen isn't intuitive or friendly to NOT taking your hands off the keyboard. (we LOVE the tab key!!)
At least would like to tighten it up a bit, shorten fields, combine fields on one row (ie: first / last name). It would make it easier to read and navigate when there are alot of fields to work with in a record.
Implementation was a CHORE. Not intuitive at all. Took months to get things working just right.

As a marketing agency, we have social media posts with tons of data about each post all over. Airtable not only allows us to consolidate all that data, as it comes in over time, but also collaborate on each piece.
Having multiple fields that are links are critical too, so we can link out to a reasearch document, and the related CANVA graphic. And then upload the final CANVA image right into the record.
The seperate chat piece allows the team to leave each other feedback as the social post progresses. Removes the need for emails and a seperate SLACK thread!
Very convenient! Less mistakes, quicker creation, better quality due to the improved collaboration.

Ease of Use
What do you like best about the product?
The more I use it the easier it becomes. It is now helpful to be able to create forms and tables and have our different areas organized. The Customer service gets back to us within a couple days.
What do you dislike about the product?
In the beginning it is complicated for me to navigate around and use it and to figure out how to create the forms from grid view, etc. It would be nice to be able to talk to customer serivce a little more quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping to have all of our forms in on place.
A delight for even the trickiest of workarounds
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is a very versatile and user-friendly platform that offers a wide range of features that can be applied in creative ways. I have found it extremely useful for data tracking and database management and find myself using it on a fairly regular basis. If I ever stumble upon a problem that could benefit from having a technical solution, Airtable is usually my go-to solution.
I find the view sharing feature greatly helpful for distributing data and resources internally, especially among others who don't need to access the platform itself but would benefit from the information contained in the bases and workspaces I create. It is easy to implement, especially given the ability to add on integrations and pulgins.

What do you dislike about the product?
In order to track and manipulate data in the right way, I have found there is a need for some coding experience. There are also instances where I've been unable to complete a task or execute a desired outcome, leaving me wondering if the issue is user error or a limitation of the platform. I also wish I better understood, or had more helpful guidance, around dependent records and multi-layered sorting and grouping.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are two major priojects where Airtable has been a lifesaver. The first is a large organizational directory. Each record has become a page in the directory with organizational information (addresses, phone numbers, mission statement, leadership, etc.). Through a plugin, I was able to create a self-serve portal where organizations can independently manage their listing. This has significantly reduced the need for myself or another database administrator to manually update these entries, and instead focus on cleaning up records for consistency before publishing.
The second is a work in progress project where we are tracking education program metrics and statistics. I have found it incredibly useful for calculating attendance numbers, parsing out numbers by certain parameters (e.g. city council districts, etc.) and producing quick and easy to access reports when we need to access accurate and timely information at any given time.

Airtable has really streamlined my workflow
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can have almost all of my work in one place, it saves as I go and updates. The automations have really reduced my workload and I am continually finding ways to integrate my work into Airtable to make my workflow more efficient and my processes more seamless
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that the headers of the tables would wrap. I also wish that in the record review interface design, we had more capability to change the font design (i.e. size, color, etc) so we can call attention to certain fields if we want. Highlighting or coloring certain fields would be an excellent option to have as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Task Management, scheduling, sending repetitive emails on time manually
Airtable is the best
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can customize, organize, and view my data easily and efficiently
What do you dislike about the product?
I could go for more complexity in my formulas.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable is helping me track and manage our communication strategy. It also allows me to provide a "slide-like" presentation of each communication point for my sales colleagues who want to flip through the data in a presentable format.
