Airtable Reviews & Product Details

Compared to other database systems I've used, Airtable is (for the most part) quite forgiving when working with data. The intricacy of supports while remaining logical and extremely fast impresses me.

Certain decisions made by API are odd. The main drawback is that you have to use the actual column name when referencing a column instead of using an internal ID, which is particularly error-prone for large teams. The ability to quickly search for a record using a field value is also lacking.

As an alternative to SalesForce as our CRM, we adopted AirTable. It was simpler to adapt fields for our particular applications and the interface was friendlier overall.

Airtable is a great way to organize your tasks and projects and keep track of what has been completed and what still needs to be done.

If you sort the table it affects everyone so you have to set up a unique view and switch back and forth between them. Also the boxes are small so if there is a lot of text in one you have to double click it to expand the field.

Airtable helps me communicate with my managers to show how much of a project has been completed so far. I can also leave notes if I have any issues completing something.

Airtable is easy to use and great to customise however you would like to.

It was a little bit tricky to use in the beginning but after a little learning curve it became much easier.

It helped me to create a list of different types of content that our team can refer to.

Airtable is useful when you need more than a simple spreadsheet. It acts as a database with entries, values, and relationships. Built in sort/filter tools help find the information I need.

The mobile app is not very useful. The design on desktop and mobile is too rigid. I would love to see Airtable act as a real website backend with an API generation tool.

I need to organize information like a list of places with details like address/phone, categories, and connected people (from another table). Works great as a CRM or task manager too.

There's so much you can do with Airtable. At the most basic level, it's a database, but has such a variety of ways you can organize and view data.

I don't think Airtable is great about explaining itself. I had to figure out much of its functionality just by playing with it and experimenting.

With Airtable, we were able to move off of a clunky, hard-to-organize or update Google Sheet. Using Airtable instead has allowed us to not only track our files, but actually work with data to understand how we are functioning and where we could improve.

I love that Airtable integrates with so many different apps. It has been a game changer for our business organization and website creation with Softr. Automations are super helpful and shave so much time off tasks that we were doing by hand.

I dislike that the Airtable branding can't be removed from interfaces and emails sent by Airtable. The interface design is not very good either, with not many customization options. We could be utilizing Airtable for more if it wasn't for that.

Airtable keeps all of our data in one place to be used with other integrations. Having so much control over how our data is viewed and what fields are utilized makes Airtable limitless for what we need. We are able to send automated emails to our customers throughout each critical step of their service. Without Airtable, we would not have been able to build a dynamic website that our customers and employees can use. It has dramatically impacted our ability to create a much better experience for everyone involved.

Being an "Excel" on steroids! The capability of tracking different things, not just text, on a single database is very useful!

Some of the calculations are not easy to make.

It has changed our hiring format. Before, we had multiple sheets and attachments on drives. AirTable makes it easier to have it all in the same place.

I love how flexible and powerful Airtable is with the unlimited ways it can be used for both personal and business. I use it for everything in my business and recommend it to everyone.

For beginners or first-timers, the learning curve can be a bit steep, but once you get it - there's absolutely no going back and you'll want to use it for everything!

I have eliminated the need for accounting software and have automated 95% of my accounting. I use it for clients to track their entire business including a fully automated KPI dashboard that automatically pulls and sends a report every Monday on key metrics. I set up one of my clients who is using it as an inventory tracker for their art gallery. It's a brilliant CRM as well.

I love how easy it is to set up a base to build and organize your records. The app makes it easy to capture info on the go. It's like having a custom app built for your exact needs.

Airtable does a great job of taking a robust feature set and presenting it via a simple interface. Still, some parts of the UI can be a little tricky (like navigating views).

I use Airtable as a CRM and to organize my hobbies (wine collection, nature sites, reading list, etc).

I like Airtable and all that we can do through its use; visually, it is attractive and is relatively quite easy to learn and use; on the other hand, in terms of functionalities, it is excellent for tracking projects on any timeline (past, current and incoming), monitoring who is working on projects at any time you want, adding details to project statuses, setting deadlines for accomplishing activities and much more. Airtable has many capabilities to exploit once users become accustomed to using the tool; it has proven to be a handy resource within our organization.

The charting application is very little customizable, and the automation is still a bit clunky; taking those two details out, I have no complaints about this product.

Airtable is a daily use tool within my organization due to the versatility, power and functionalities that enhance the management of our projects. Since using it, we have noticed a better workflow and better organization, planning and management of our projects; moreover, it is possible to track the progress of projects in real-time and make edits or add details to projects on the fly, which is something we had not enjoyed with other management tools used previously. It is a relief to have such a valuable tool like Airtable.

We are able to customize pretty much everything, which allows us to do things the way that best fits our workflows. And with the automations, we're able to save a ton of time and integrate our task management with the other tools we use.

It took us a long time to really make use of the more advanced features like calculated fields and automations in general, so we didn't get the full value from day 1. But once we did start exploring these things, we've only gotten more and more value out of using it.

We use Airtable for task management for the different teams in our Marketing department. And with the ability to have multiple tables with different settings, we can make sure that each team can use it the way that best fits them. Also, by being able to link records and use automations to connect it across, we're able to link tasks together across teams within the tool. Lastly, we've found the forms feature extremely helpful when we get tasks from other teams in the company. All they have to do is fill out a few fields and we will automatically get the tasks created and assigned properly in the tool we use, so we don't have to handle multiple task management tools or processes.

Airtable is beautiful and functional. I love the new Interface software and use it to show clients my work in an easy-to-understand way.

It can be difficult to start using Airtable — but it's overall very easy, once you get the hang of it.

Airtable allows me to create less decks, and instead put information into a more accessible, easier-to-manipulate platform. I can't say enough good things.

Views and automations are amazing. Filters and group by features also

no connection between the databases, no possibilities to hide empty fields on galery views like notion

data centralization, which allows to save a lot of time

The easiest way to build processes you need without having to code. Also like the ability to have all the employees seeing the same data in different ways

Some automation controls and the lack of chart management like in excel for instance.

I basically run my company area in airtable, managing bugs, product roadmap, CRM and cancel requests.

We like how Airtable has templates that allow us to jump-start our venture operations. For example, Investor Deal Flow and investor Portfolio Companies are used initially.

I would prefer that the views in Airtable be more flexible. For example, in Gird View, I can't have the row height automatically increase based on the amount of data entered.

Airtable allows us to hit the ground in managing our operations without external help. We can customise the templates or bases as our needs grow. 3 things are crucial in managing our venture operations. Apart from email services, the team rely on Airtable to track and manage our deal flow and portfolio.

Assigning tasks are extremely easy, keeping track of tasks is also very easy. Also, it is a good place to store documents/files.

Newcomers in the company sometimes have a hard time understanding our bases on airtable since they can be complex.

New features have always been super helpful

You do not have to buy many applications, just use Airtable. Flexible, Easy to Use.

Project Managagement better in other programs like Monday

Anything more or less can be solved in Airtable. Can replace many other small programs.

It's very didactic, easy to use (once you get a hold of it) and it's just nice to present data in a more graphic and friendly way. It's a prettier excel and much more fun to use.

It can be tricky in the beginning; you might feel overwhelmed. But you soon catch up to it, and it'll change your way of viewing and using data

It is helping me have more clean data and present it in an impactful way without spending a lot of hours creating dashboards

The integrations, filters, and user friendly are really helpful for the teams and the company process.

For now, everything is perfect for us. Maybe other flexibility for calendars but it is ok

The tag manager and the updates for the filters has been perfect for our process

The free version gives stacks of features to run most projects' needs, but if it does not have the tool in the free version, the paid versions will; the best part with all the credit one gets for recommending the free version gives you a chance to try before you buy. I used a pro version with four seats for almost three months with credit alone. Awesomeness

Need a custom auto number, The ability to dictate which field is the "heading" of a Calender entry in calendar view. Form view layout is not customisable; this can be a deal breaker as a choice of the form builder, especially if adding to a website (not sure if Airtable even has this function) conditional logic in forms is lacking Inability to copy-paste a screenshot into a records comments

Recently had to team up with a fellow reseller in another city; Airtable has helped us keep track of who my clients and leads are and what tasks need attention,
