Airtable Reviews & Product Details

With little or no-code knowledge I´ve created cloud based solution using relational data, such as CRM, project management tracker, event tracker, general ledger, among others. Easy to set up automations and they are in continuous improvement.

Multilingual support could be useful, sepecially in spanish

Eliminates the need of more people involved in my compañy solutions, I can customize my data and processes in hours. Competitive pricing

L'étendue des possibilités qu'offre cet outil, notamment avec les formulas

To go further, you still have to know how to code

The link between data. Airtable also allowed me to easily automate part of my activity.

Being web-based, it's available to all my staff on whatever device they are using. We love the barcode scanning capability to keep track of IT Assets and their serial numbers. API access also allows for automation through email triggers and services like Zapier.

I've noticed that the iOS app isn't able to use the full camera features - like macro mode - which would be really useful for scanning tiny barcodes from product boxes!

We use Airtable as our IT Asset register to track what assets we have, where they are and who is using them. Since multiple users can be editing the register at the same time, this allows us to be more productive.

I use Airtable to maintain my customer list, inventory, sales records, shipping, and expenses for my small business. I love that I can tailor it specifically to my needs - for example, tracking vendor events and linking sales and inventory for a specific event, or tracking customer order history, patterns, and likes/dislikes. I also love that I can create grid views for a variety of conditions so I can view the current state of my business from different perspectives, from sales to inventory to cash flow to frequency of purchases from individual customers. Lastly, I love that I can access Airtable on my computer where I do most of my work, but also on mobile devices when I'm on the go and need access to information.

There's a bit of a learning curve when it comes to customizing it to suit your needs. That's just the nature of something that is so infinitely customizable, but it's good to recognize that it will take a little bit of time to learn how to get it set up specifically to your needs. It's not difficult, but does take some time and practice. However, if you know someone that is in a similar situation using Airtable, you can share bases with others and get a head start that way. There are also starter examples that are very helpful.

Airtable allows me to run my business from anywhere. I particularly like that even when I am on the go, if I get a message from a customer asking if they'd ordered a specific item in the past, or if I can remind them of their tracking number, and I'm away from the office, I can look it up easily on the mobile app and get back to that customer right away. It helps me to be more efficient and gives me more flexibility in how and where I work my business.

Regardless of what your team does, Airtable is flexible where it can adjust to your needs. The addition of extensions and automations make it an even stronger tool, but I recommend the free version to many teams inside and outside my organization.

The downsides are that you can't edit files that are attached and the gantt features are a bit weak, but these problems can be remedied with functions or external file systems.

I use Airtable for project management of multi-year projects. I track budgets, timelines, tasks, and needs, all while keeping everything visible to my large team.

It was very intuitive how to set up my database. I love that I could share it with others.

I would've loved to have been able to make a master database that others couldn't pull information into their own databases from.

Her table was a great way for me to manage teaching ESL. I have also used it personally for tracking media.

When I first started using Air Table, I was looking for an easy way to add images to the data I was collecting. I had been previously been using a spreadsheet program that didn't handle images well. I gave Air Table a shot and it's changed the way I work in so many ways! I can not only add images but also link data in different tables allowing me to see connections in a completely different way. I love that they have a free plan, but honestly once you start using it you'll find more and more uses.

One of the frustrations I have is when I share a table with someone it's way too easy to accidentally set them us as a creator and get charged for an extra using on the account. They should add a pop up that asks if you want to add a new user and that it will incur additional charges.

I use Air Table for many different purposes. It's great at handling images and document attachments. I also like that the app lets me use it on the go. I've actually used it at events, adding records, taking pics, and including notes. It works great!

You can amicably visualize your data, optimize processes, create interactive databases, work simultaneously with your colleagues, and much more

I would like to be able to use formulas in rows too

I have not had any problem

I appreciate all of the views Airtable provides. It helps our team move projects through our workflow and catalog all the information we need for our many steps.

We benefit from Airtable's functionalities so much, that there isn't anything I dislike about the platform. Airtable has continued to grow as our team's activities have grown.

Airtable is a highly advanced and visual spreadsheet. It organizes all of our information, keeps us aware of important dates, and helps us determine the status of small and large scale projects.

Airtable is a rare tool where its flexibility is matched by reliability. There are so many different ways to use Airtable, and each is incredibly effective. I use Airtable for any project I can to track progress, catalog content, and so much more.

To be honest, any small issues I've had with Airtable have been resolved in recent updates. I used to be weary about share functionality and users accidentally being added to a paid plan, but Airtable now allows admins to lock this permission. Additionally I was disappointed with the inability to share interfaces with non-users, but that is much easier now as well.

Airtable provides my team with a home base. Unlike navigating a complex organization of Drive folders, Airtable bases and tables allow data, content, and tasks to live in one central area.

With Airtable and Make.com, I believe you have the core of what you need to automate just about everything for your organizational needs. Depending on your specific needs, you may need other things like Tally, Calendly, Hubspot, etc... But they all have to feed into some central repository, which is where Airtable shines. Inside Airtable, you'll not only get to organize all your information but also do things in response to them. The "Automation" feature is a godsend in this regard. It can send emails, update other records, and even call out to other webhooks provided by make.com or similar no-code software based on a trigger. If you have other people who have to view, edit, and enter information Airtable now has what's called an "Interface" on top of what they have always had called "forms." They're not perfect, but they've come a very, very long way. They should be able to get most of your needs met. Granted, you may still need some custom coding here and there to get your company organized and managed through airtable. If you want in-depth control over your information and how things happen in response to changes in the information, starting with Airtable is the way to go. If you want to put UI first, you may find Airtable lacking.

Having used Airtable from the very beginning, I have a lot of stuff I have to clean up because new features in Airtable have made much of my earlier hacks unncessary. I also want the "Interface" feature to improve to the degree that it can at least do everything the "form" feature can do (i.e. conditional visibility, etc) Finally, the various automations are hard to track. There has to eventually be a better way to organize this. This may be on me now with the new "section" feature, but there may also be an opportuntiy to innovate here in some way to make it easy for people to see at a high-level when automations are triggered, what they do, and how they interact, etc...

Problem 1: Unorganized information -> Solution: Table Problem 2: Time wasted doing routine work & feeling like I've forgotten to do something -> Solution: Automation Problem 3: You want what other people do to be fed into the same place so you can see how everything is going -> Solution: by forms (quite a bit clunky) but much more improved with interface (although not as mature as forms in its features) Problem 4: Need for variety of reports from same data -> Solution: Extension Problem 1 & 2 is mostly solved Problem 3 is still in progress as interface needs more improvement Problem 4 is mostly solved, but could use the help of the "page designer" being more improved.

I love the ability of Airtable to make data more consumable for users with the help of layouts, filters, and views.

Pricing can be a bit steep when more users are required. Rolling up of data to a summary sheet.

Making error-free databases that were earlier made in Excel or Google Sheets.

I like being able to filter the data into useful views that help me understand the business and make decisions. I love the share views function which helps me communicate transparently with my customers.

The desktop software is Airtable's main priority, and the mobile app for iPhone needs work. It glitches out from time to time and doesn't show enough rows of data.

The key problems that Airtable helps solve are 1. organization and attention to detail (keeping all my business expenses in one place). 2. time savings having everything in one central hub saves us a lot of time probably 5-6 hours per week.

Easy to use database and spreadsheet features which link to third party services for powerful analytics and reporting.

Record limit, which they did recently increase to 50,000 records on my plan.

Keeping data in one place in an easy to view manner.

The power and flexibility, that allows me to build solutions and proof of concepts faster

API Keys cannot be set as read only, for integrating with external clients such as a React application it involves a security risk

Airtable is helping me solve my own management issues. From home projects to task management for my freelance endeavors to simple Pokemon tracking

Versatility/range of projects that can be optimized by using Airtable, customer support/community forums, clean and easy-to-navigate user interface

The page designer extension is not the easiest to use, but that's a small thing

Airtable implementing the sync table feature enabled me to use Airtable as a relational database that is so much more user-friendly and intuitive than typical software solutions.

Interface, built in commands to perform task and no need to write formulas.

Little bit limited in building relation to other sheets

I use it as my CRM for client tracking and team tracking. For me it works great

Airtable gives me a one-stop shop to organize and aggregate findings from my win/loss interviews. I can upload transcripts and recordings into the tool I created and easily share with clients via a unique URL.

I wish I could rename the URL, like 'FY 2022 Win/Loss Results" that would be easier for clients to remember.

Airtable gives me a centralized place to report data and share results with my clients at no additional charge to them. Most win/loss providers charge users a fee to look at their own data.

It improved the way we organized the sales process in our company. Having the tool itself, made it more sophisticated.

It is very easy to use and has all the relevant funcionalities needed.

We want to have more sales and keep track of the work of the sales reps

Interface and ease of use makes data readable

Would like more intergratiobs for ecommerce

Controlling product data and collecting that data making it easily accessible
