Dynamic and Flexible, But With a Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?
I really love how dynamic Airtable is. You can pretty much build anything you can dream of since it's super flexible. I also find it very smart, and the AI functionality is particularly helpful for those not super familiar with building components or architecting workflows. It really helps in getting ideas out of people's heads into functional workflows.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's definitely a bit of a learning curve for people who are new to using Airtable. Navigation feels less intuitive. But once you start using it on a day-to-day basis, it really kind of becomes ingrained.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable connects teams, keeps our data centralized as a source of truth, and is efficient for workflows. It's easy to connect to automations and APIs, automating workflows beyond what legacy solutions could do.
User-Friendly Interface with Excellent Custom Field Types in Airtable
What do you like best about the product?
User friendly interface and customised field types which is best service of airtable
What do you dislike about the product?
Record limit every limit has hard limit on record per base and also to work upon latency /reliability
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Rapid customisation and seamless connectivity it integrate with apps like zapier,letting to trigger apps like google drive and slack
Versatile Views and Automation in One Platform
What do you like best about the product?
I really like Airtable's multiple views because I can look at a grid, Kanban, and calendar gallery. It's super helpful since it lets different stakeholders see the same data in different ways they appreciate, like grids, Kanban boards, or calendar galleries, which helps them compare this to their work effort. Also, the automations are pretty good for handling those repetitive tasks in workflows.
What do you dislike about the product?
Well, pricing escalates quickly as my teams grow. The automations are strong, but sometimes it seems as though it's limited for complexities. And had to be careful on how you set up the permissions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Airtable helps by providing multiple views like grid, Kanban, and calendar, allowing stakeholders to see data in their preferred format. It automates repetitive tasks, streamlines workflows, links records, and offers templates, which enhance efficiency.
Intuitive and Efficient Knowledge Hub Tool
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the ease of use with Airtable. It's very easy to set up, add, and maintain whatever work needs to be done. The integration capabilities are also very useful, allowing me to fetch content from multiple sources and push alerts into others. The initial setup was extremely easy—I just had to sign up, and I got immediate access to the product. Once you're there, it's very easy and intuitive to work on it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel like sometimes when it comes to having more customization to specific workflows or how data needs to be kept, it may be a little bit limiting. But overall, I think that is to be expected and this is just on a few edge cases which can have workarounds.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Airtable as a knowledge hub, reducing the complexity of keeping a database and making it simple to maintain.
Airtable: A Michelin-Star Data Experience Beyond Excel
What do you like best about the product?
I started using Airtable the moment I realized I had exhausted everything Excel could offer. After countless attempts to force a database structure into spreadsheets, I finally found Airtable, and nearly ten years later, I’ve never looked back.
Airtable is incredibly easy to navigate at the start. If you’re stuck in Google Sheets or Excel, it feels like someone finally built the data layer for you, but with all the power and flexibility you always wished spreadsheets had.
I think of Airtable like a dinner at a three star Michelin restaurant. It’s not just a meal; it’s an experience. You begin with something simple, almost understated, and then each course builds on the last. By the time you reach the main course, you’re fully immersed, and when you leave, you’re slightly stunned by what just happened.
That’s how Airtable works. You start with the data layer. Then come relationships, automations, interfaces, and forms, each adding depth and complexity, all thoughtfully constructed. It builds so naturally that your brain can’t help but want more.

What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, there are only a few things I wish would get addressed, and I know they’re working on them, mostly Interface/UI improvements. One is the List view: I’d love the ability to lock the primary field. The other is bulk image downloading. That’s really it. I love pretty much everything about the platform, and I recommend it to anyone who’s looking to get more advanced and level up their internal data operations. 10/10 Stars!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves connectivity and cross-functional collaboration around product data across the entire company. It lets us operate with confidence and trust, and that’s the key for me: trusting the data and the process. The simplest way I can put it is that Airtable is the heartbeat of our company; it’s the engine. Now, with AI, specifically the agents, it’s helping us review and react faster. It’s added horsepower to our product operations, and it’s only getting faster, smarter, and more advanced.
Airtable: Lego-Like Flexibility to Build MVPs Fast
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is like a collection of legos. You can buy a new set and have an MVP in hours, or you can tinker and make something truely unique and to your specifications. I love that we don't need to invest thousands in a handful of specialized tools that won't easily fit together.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the learning curve can be challenging for less technical users. That's why it's very encouraging to see airtable investing so much time in their learning resources and product features like Interfaces that are more universally friendly. There are still some improvements to be made for accessibility, but they have published their plan to address them and are making improvements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The list is extensive! I database for applications and applicant funnel workflows. It's a database and tool for our asset management and reservation system. We use it for our internal project management system, marketing workflows, and co working space facilities management. We use it as a public facing portal for event registration and more.
Essential for Organized, Visual Documentation and Onboarding
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable has become an essential tool for almost all of our documentation and a key part of our new client and new employee onboarding process. It's a great tool to keep documentation and processes organized as well as making it visual and easy to locate information whenever it is needed. We use Google Drive and other document sharing tools but everything is centralized in Airtable making it easy to follow.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's nothing I don't like about it. Maybe they can improve on their guides and how to as it can be overwhelming for brand new users who haven't used Airtable since the beginning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
During new client onboarding and new employee onboarding training and inductions would normally take up a lot of time depending on the type of service being provided or the job title of the new incumbents. Airtable has helped us centralize all of our training resources including interactive guides and videos in a simple easy to follow self-training resource which has freed up the time for our CSM and our HR departments to do other vital things. It's easy to update it with new content and it helps us visually explain our different processes and departments.
Flexible No-Code Tool for Tracking Projects, Budgets, and Requests
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is a very flexible, low code, no code tool. In my department we use it to track all of our projects, to track budget, and may other things. We have created forms that feed our project dashboard so requests that come in are tracked, assigned, and managed.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are not too many things that I dislike about Airtable. While it is no code, low code, it does take a bit of learning to build out certain aspects and sometimes, we are not able to do what we think we should be able to do.

Empowering and Easy-to-Use, but some AI features feel empty
What do you like best about the product?
Airtable is the cornerstone our project management workflows. I use Airtable professionally and personally for video project management at work, personal finance, and side project organization. It is a wonderful way to organize data that makes my professional and personal lives streamlined. I find Airtable very user-friendly, empowering me to create automatic workflows without needing coding knowledge. Having a 'source of truth' in data management gives me a sense of security. Creating workflows provides a feeling of satisfying creative self-expression, similar to my video editing work. The active Airtable community is helpful, often providing walkthroughs when I Google workflow questions. Airtable empowers me to live my most organized life. The initial setup was very easy, and I found it fun from the get-go, being satisfying and quick to learn.
What do you dislike about the product?
Record limits and automation limits can be frustrating. The new features with omni and field agents feel promising, but often I find more value in building a base manually. The airtable AI credits process is a bit confusing to follow, even though it's gotten better. Also, when omni builds a base, I often want to start from scratch, since many of the auto-generated fields seem irrelevant.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Airtable for both work and personal projects, making data organization seamless. It's user-friendly, letting me create automatic workflows without coding knowledge. It empowers my personal and professional organization, providing security and creative satisfaction in managing workflows.
Airtable Makes Project Management Simple, Fast, and Frictionless
What do you like best about the product?
What I love most is how easy it is to use. The user experience feels genuinely simple, intuitive, fast, and automated, so I can get things done without friction. Everything I need is in one place, without any hassle. Unlike other project management tools that can quickly feel overwhelming, Airtable keeps things straightforward and simplifies the whole process.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven’t had any issues or problems with it so far. It helps teams stay coordinated without turning project management into a full-time job. It also allows new team members to adapt quickly, which is a huge boost to productivity.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It’s an excellent project management tool that makes it easy to create projects and add team members to each one. It helps cut down on confusion, strengthens accountability, and makes sure important updates—such as health and safety notices—reach the right people quickly.
