Airtable vs Resource Guru

• The website is very well laid out. It is uncluttered, easy to navigate, and is highly visual. There are a great range of field types and add-on blocks.
• Setting up bases is very straightforward. If you get stuck the help section and videos are excellent. You can also access Airtable Universe to see examples of how the product is used by others.
• I have submitted a number of queries by email and in each case the staff were very helpful and responded quickly. Given that I was using a free account at the time, I was very impressed.
• Given that I have used the product with very young children successfully, I think that it is extremely well designed.

• entering a single record seems to have to be done across several screens. Perhaps just the way we did it, but would be easier if it were all done on one screen
• can't figure out how to "hide" a record once one of the people we are visiting dies. We don't want to delete the record, just hide it from the primary view.
• eventually, it would be great to be able to integrate into Gmail--eg to hit the email address and have that transfer to an email...but perhaps not possible without permission from google...

• It isn't quite as user-friendly as I would like. Once you are accustomed to it, it is very useful, but the initial use could be facilitated.
• One user-friendly calendar interface that displays tasks and deadlines would be nice.
• A real-time time logging button would be nice, rather than entering hours retroactively.

• It's too soon to have conclusive evidence of ROI, but I suspect our improved ability to manage our partner and donor relationships will improve, thus leading to positive ROI in the future.

• It has made our cross functional team much more productive and efficient.
• The only negative feature is the slightly complicated user interface. Before a manager was fully introduced to the product, it was not utilized as much as should be.
• It allowed all details of timelines to be updated easily (automatically), if the deadline is pushed forward or back.
