Overall Satisfaction with Airtable
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.
Pros
- Making the tables is very easy and intuitive on Airtable.
- If a teammate makes a change to a cell, it appears instantly on my end without any lag time, which is awesome.
- The user interface is colorful and easy on the eyes. This is important because we spend so much time on our database.
- Filter and group funcationalities are two other very effective ways of looking at the data, can also be done in a layered fashion, and these settings can be saved. It is also possible to hide certain columns.
- Multiple views allow us to see and save the data from different angles, grouped by categories, filtered by selected features, and so on. Switiching between saved views really helps make sense of the information.
- We can easily set data types including dropdowns, date, and formula. Very useful feature.
- Airtable has a form view. Using the form view for entering data is a great time saver, especially for tables with many columns, because it spares me from scrolling the length of the table for data entry.
- Tables can be linked.
Cons
- Some more templates containing more examples of linked tables can encourage users to be more creative with Airtable.
- Information on integration with popular visualization tools.
- Saved time.
- Made remote working possible.
- Made collaboration easy.
