Airtable is great as an easy-to-use database creation tool. Moreover, it is a powerful web-based software which made collaboration with my team seamless. We are using it in our organization to build a project for a client.

Airtable and Archival Description
I am currently using Airtable to describe and manage the company's archival collections. Occasionally, I will share a view with someone and I have had collaborators assist with metadata entry in the past, but right now I am the sole user. Software commonly used for archives management is costly and entails complex database systems that require extensive training. These platforms can be helpful when managing large collections but for a much smaller scale project, Airtable provides tools for building the foundation of a very simple linked database.

We're using Airtable for a variety of methods; we're using it in the marketing department for tracking, data storage, content creation management and scheduling, etc. The department using it is basically able to use this in lieu of several programs, including Google Docs, Scrivener, Asana, Evernote and more.

Airtable - Thumbs up!
Airtable is being used by the Center for Digital Learning & Innovation in a number of ways but most notably to display and categorize eLearning tools in a searchable interface.
We are using Airtable in the communications department of our non-profit. There are just two of us in the department and we support many different sub-organizations under the main non-profit. We have a constant rotation of projects and using Airtable as a base to keep all our information is becoming invaluable. Our goal is to test it for the year with our department and then introduce it organization-wide.
I am currently the only Airtable user at my organization. I am using it to manage multiple projects and overall workflow.
We use Airtable to automate processes around fundraisers and tasks that require us to coordinate with committees on specific projects.

Review of Airtable from a newbie
We needed an efficient and cost-effective solution for organizing data for monitoring and evaluation and merging that data with ongoing project management. One that would work on a smartphone in the field. AirTable is shaping up to be that solution. Easy to upload our existing data tables and pull that data into forms where it can be updated. Impressed with the ability of AirTable to "read" data types and anticipate what you need.

We use it in the administrative part of the organization for task and project management.
I'm an instructor in the Animal Health Technologies program at a community college. We are a SharePoint shop, but uploading and downloading files is tedious, so frequently use Google Docs for file sharing applications, which also often involves pushing files and forms out to students. Using a spreadsheet for this allows the information to be presented, but it's certainly not pretty or inspiring. As an example, we have a list of 350+ things that our accrediting agency requires that our students accomplish while in school. So we have a spreadsheet that lists the task name, the task description, the assessment criteria, the success criteria, the course in which the task is expected to be addressed, who teaches that course, and a link to the video that shows how the task is to be done. Whew! So visualize that information -- a line in a spreadsheet, with lots of wrapping that makes it hard to see the whole line at once, every line looks alike, it's just... blah!
With a simple import into Airtable (via a Sheets export to a .csv document), and a few clicks, this spreadsheet is filled with color -- fields are easily changed to color-coded pull-down lists (courses, instructors, success criteria). Then, with a view change, this becomes a colorful, easy-to-read set of cards on a table, cards that students can easily filter and sort. The success criteria form (also in Airtable) can be linked right in the task data, so students see the actual form their instructors will be using to determine their success.
So far, I'm the only one that I know of using Airtable here, but I'm absolutely enchanted with it and will be presenting it to others, who I expect to be assimilated.

Airtable Saves Your Staff Time, Energy, and Stress
We are a small nonprofit with only a few staff members managing many events and tasks as a team. Until we found Airtable, we lacked any software to support our work and largely made do with the use of many Excel spreadsheets and individual task lists to manage all of the details of our work. This was particularly challenging for those staff members who were part time or working from home and needing support from full time employees when they were not in the office. We now use Airtable for Project Management, Event Management, and Client Management across our organization and have begun to use it for Strategic Planning purposes as well. We are able to use Airtable to clearly outline the workflow and timeline of each of our 200+ events each year from booking straight through to completion. Each team member now has a clear picture of their responsibilities and how their work fits into the big picture. There is easy oversight of each project for managers to confirm what tasks and events are running smoothly and identify where extra support is needed. The flexibility of Airtable allows us to adapt to the changing needs of each project/event. Airtable has also allowed us to keep better records on our clients and projects and keeps all the information we need right at our fingertips through its features of dynamically linking between tables and being able to store attachments right in a cell. Our events and office is running markedly smoother and all involved staff have commented that they feel more on top of their work because of Airtable.

Airtable for innovation
We use Airtable in the innovation team. In the innovation team, we work across all directorates in the organisation which means huge sharing of documents and knowledge. Emails can easily get lost and spreadsheets are in abundance. Most of our work is in spreadsheets, however, Airtable makes it extremely easy to format into easy to read Kanbans, galleries, and calendars which are easy to edit and share amongst other directorates. Other teams in the organisation have started to take notice of Airtable as a project and collaboration tool.

We're using Airtable to consolidate multiple data sources across our organisation, into one centralised repository. Within our organisation, we have many data stores, in different formats, and in some cases duplicate data. Using Airtable has allowed us to develop a far more manageable data infrastructure. In addition, Airtable integrates (through Zapier) with a host of other apps to enable a new level of automation within our business. The flexibility of Airtable has allowed us to develop bespoke data structures that can be adapted as our business grows and our requirements change.

Airtable: Great productivity and project management tool
I have been using Airtable personally to organize key projects, and recently I have introduced Airtable to the Management Team at the Winnipeg Humane Society to manage time-sensitive, critical projects. From Human Resources activity to Grant Application management, Airtable was picked up by the users quickly and it has helped us remain on task and on schedule.
We tried other web-based solutions, but Airtable has been by far the easiest to adopt with people truly raving about it.

We're using Airtable as part of our UCDGS workgroup to create content and social media calendars with small programs and student groups at UC Davis. Airtable is helpful with organizing content calendars, associating posts with quarterly interests, and designing personas that guide in content and social media creation. This is especially useful to create guiding calendars for programs that are in various locations and cities.

New user experience
Our organization works with non-profit associations, providing essential business management services. That includes financial management, member management, and training and convention planning. We have been searching for a tool that will handle membership for smaller organizations without going to a full blown member management solution (which we use when appropriate). After considerable research, I came across AirTable. We are really looking forward to utilizing this platform in a number of ways, all geared towards member management and record retention for this client organizations we have. I like the flexibility that we will have with it, and I really appreciate that we can set up each client independently and model their database as we see fit.

Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air (table)?
We are currently building our contacts database with Airtable. The relational tables with multiple choices of type fields are the reasons why we preferred to work with Airtable instead of softwares like Zoho. We are a very small organization so the flexibility of Airtable is exactly what we need for being more productive and keeping track of all our projects.

Airtable is Trello on steroids
We use Airtable in the online marketing and communication department as a content board. All our online marketing campaigns are listed there, with the channels, goals, and target audiences. A big plus is that Airtable enables us to have a calendar view of our campaigns, so we see in a visual way which campaigns are running when.

My Favorite Airtable
I have been using Airtable personally for a number of years. When I encountered a new process at my current job that needed a bigger fix than "an Excel spreadsheet", Airtable was my first thought. The first Airtable base I made for work was a collection of quotes that we could use for marketing materials. Now, we use multiple Airtable bases for tracking project progress, organizing our e-Learning courses and the data associated with them, keeping track of our collaborations data, and organizing our educational initiatives. Airtable is easy to use, has an excellent relational aspect that isn't easily done anywhere else and is nicely customizable to our needs.

Airtable was a great discovery!
We are currently using Airtable to build a digital database of a partner organization's collection of rare letters, scores, incipits, and photographs of the composer Gustav Mahler. This Airtable will be used for internal research on the composer, and we intend for it to serve as the foundation for a digital library, accessible to educators and researchers.

Airtable for Video Production
Airtable is used by our digital team to help manage the pipeline of over 100 videos we produce each year (short and mini documentary). We track our release dates, completion dates, and the status of each video. Additionally, the platform enables us to create a database of all crew members, editors, speakers, etc. It's a big help to have everything in one spot, especially for future projects. For example, we're able to easily see who we've worked with in the past in specific cities.

Airtable makes simple, shared table management a breeze
We are using this tool primarily as a fast prototyping tool for solving simple database and data collection problems in administering our development. For example, we have mocked up a new project portfolio where we capture project requests before they go through the prioritization process.
I am also using it privately as a shared repository for maintaining data with groups of people.

AirTable is an incredible asset to our team workflow. We create media (video, custom courses and graphics) for a large school district in Virginia. AirTable allows us to log all of our current projects, assign them to specific team members, add custom fields, etc. We love the ease of use on a computer or mobile when we are at a school site. The calendar view is great for seeing upcoming due dates and to show what is completed/in production.
