  • Airtable has had a positive impact for our organization. We have wanted to grow and expand, but our prior infrastructure did not support that growth. We thought we needed to invest a large sum in a CRM program. Onboarding with Airtable was fast and painless. The annual fee is extremely reasonable.

  • Prior to using airtable we relied on excel for data management in fundraising. It's early in the process but we can see that transitioning to airtable has already allowed us to organize donor information that better facilitates ongoing engagement.

  • Productivity is an easy place to start with ROI. The quickest and easiest way for us to see our ROI with Airtable is the ability to handle large processes and task very quickly and easily, and in many cases with automation. We have specifically seen this within our hiring and application process, where an applicant fills out the form on our website, and after submission, it lands in Airtable where it gets worked through the process.
  • Still on productivity, we have seen great impact on management the project plan for the launch of our founding school in Philadelphia. We have been utilizing Airtable to task plan each step of the process for launching the school from vision to building.
  • There has been a bit of negative impact due to limitations of the tool. Specifically the task planning an inability to nest task within the project. We have also had a few issues with the lack of the ability to link records between bases, which would help centralize data better.

  • It would cost us EUR 10K to update our former MS SharePoint system to work faster and to have a better UI. Monthly fee of EUR 250 is a joke compared to that. Using a non-profit discount is great too.
  • The better and faster our psychologists can enter and use a wide range of types of data about children, volunteers, donors and partners, the more efficient they are and the less time they spend with the system - the bigger the opportunity to work with the kids and with volunteers - to do what they love and why we exist.

  • Time saved in developing our in house employee management tool is massive! Was able to create a full-fledged HR system in 1 hour, v.s. at least 4-5 hours using Google Sheets or creating a custom web-based solution
  • We have also implemented it for managing our in-house PR process for managing journalist relations and task management for PR activities. This is in the process and we are yet to do a formal ROI analysis here
  • Project Management - We earlier were using a clunky and difficult to use software to manage our projects, but Airtable seems to be a great option for improving productivity and ease of use by at least 30-40%

  • It's saved me time not having to rifle through multiple spreadsheets for related data.
  • I'm able to quickly compare and contract trends of program strengths and weaknesses.
  • It provides a unifying template that is suitable for the technophobe and the geek.

  • Streamline processes in the office and make our workflow more cohesive.
  • Ability to determine employees bandwidth and monitor their projects and outputs clearly and concisely.
  • Ability to combine different areas of work in our organization and get them all in to a single place for tracking.
  • We were able to switch from other platforms and grant management software to Airtable completely which saved us a lot of money.

  • The average worker in industry spends about 2000 hours on the job. Airtable has saved me about 700 hours of wasted time with lesser tools. That's a third of anyone's year.. No small gift! And if these were paid professional hours (we are an all volunteer organization), it would equate to about $35000 a year.
  • In addition to doing things easier and faster, we are starting our long requested Library of published articles. This will eventually be in a formal book form. Attempts to even THINK about the steps before Airtable were futile.
  • As the printing capabilities keep becoming better and better, reaching our donors with the info they want to see will result in an increase in support.
