Airtable Software Reviews

“If Google Sheets and Trello had a baby”

Pros

The multiple viewing options available in Airtable offer versatility in how we interact with and analyze our data.

Cons

There's a learning curve with Airtable, and I'm still exploring its potential. Despite this, I'm eager to expand my usage.

“Best software for Project Management and Content Management”

Pros

One of the most important features any project management software can offer is automation. And Im glad to report that Airtable excels at it! We are a start-up which is naturally short staffed but we have managed to get a lot of clients onboard with us. Airtable has solved the issue of managing the client base by automating a lot of tasks like sending weekly reports and digests to our clients that we used to do manually for everyone. It has freed our time to be spent on tasks that cannot be effectively automated and increased the level of productivity we lacked.

Cons

There are no ‘con’ as such, but they should improve on the customer support they have.

“Excellent Tool for Workflow Implementation and Process”

Pros

It is really helpful if you want to increase collaboration between departments, especially in our case, where no single department can really function independently. All of our projects are accessible to everyone relevant, and communication can be done in-app to keep all the stages in sync. Our schedules are planned months in advance, and everyone knows what they are supposed to do. The Notes module is amazing with a lot of customization features, and sharing with colleagues allows us to get and give input to finalize the project. Its fantastic software that I wholeheartedly recommend.

Cons

There are things that are not as smooth as they should be. The software is supposed to increase overall speed and efficiency.

“A free alternative to expensive PM software”

Pros

I simply love everything Airtable has to offer. Populating the entire spreadsheet with tons of data is done in an instant, and the sheet itself is so readable, unlike those in Excel that confuse an average user. Overall, the theme of the software is very flexible, and you can make changes to almost anything you look at. Any new form that fills up can be set up to notify the user automatically, and I love that there is no restriction on the number of forms. This enabled me to create as many forms as possible to neatly organize all of my data.

Cons

One of the best things about airtable is that it can be used totally free of charge. However, it has brought with it some drawbacks.
