Cons

Pricing model: we don't like how we have to pay per user.
Calendar view: we wish the calendar view was better, or if there were different types of calendar views. Right now there is just one.
Complicated: some parts of the app are a little complicated.

The text box check list style notes only allow one indent and it would be useful to allow at least 1 more indent(2 total).
More robust font changes.

Likelihood to Renew

Airtable 10.0

Based on 2 answers

We will 10/10 renew the use of Airtable because it has brought great value to our team. Not only is Airtable affordable, but it's also user-friendly and helps our team be efficient. We no longer need to rely on Excel spreadsheets being passed from person to person via email. Furthermore, we aren't dealing with corrupt Excel spreadsheets and the need to salvage data when a file is accidentally altered.

Usability

Airtable 8.7

Based on 21 answers

It's such a friendly program to use, and there's just so many resources available to people trying to learn it or build new things. Their support is great, and they make it easy to find answers to your questions. It's easy to use but difficult to master, that might be a better way to put it.

Google Keep 9.0

Based on 1 answer

Google Keep is very easy to use. Currently, the company I work for has employees from different age brackets, and this is one of the easiest apps on G-Suite to explain. Not a lot of people use it, but it is due to personal choice since a lot of people still prefer pen and paper to keep their notes.

Implementation Rating

Airtable 9.0

Based on 2 answers

Training all users was an important part of the implementation, which did take considerable time and effort. At first glance without training, the content calendar can be overwhelming because of the amount of data. The features within Airtable seem to be endless but our team was able to identify the most important to be successful.

Alternatives Considered

Airtable combines the simplicity of a spreadsheet with the possibilities that come with a database, all within one tool. We have chosen it after a short evaluation. It is incredibly easy to use after a short training, making it a great tool compared to the typical spreadsheet-based apps.

Task apps built into iOS just don't compete. The only edge these have over Google Keep is Siri can schedule something for you. But the power and flexibility of Google Keep is better.

Return on Investment

The ROI is simple: Airtable has created a more efficient workplace. We have fewer meetings, certainly. But any meetings we do have are much more efficient and impactful. Everyone walks in having used Airtable to prepare for the meeting (uploading needed docs, etc.), and the meeting is held using Airtable as the agenda. Airtable is updated and continues to be used after the meeting, so everyone stays on the same page.
Airtable also makes planning events much more streamlined. Contracts, rental agreements, rosters, etc. are uploaded. Dates are set with reminders. People know what they are responsible for planning the event and for what role they will play during the event.

Google Keep is free, and for what I need it for I don't need to purchase another tool.
It's handy when it comes to taking quick notes, but so is a piece of paper. This tool won't magically improve your life.
