Overall Satisfaction with Airtable

We are a nonprofit with around 40,000 donor records. We use multiple applications to manage our data. Airtable is an amazing tool for quick collaboration when we are working with data with multiple team members. Their different visual views through filtering are a time saver to work on data with a lot of fields. We also love the Airtable form functionality where people internally and externally can contribute to the data.

Airtable is mainly being used for our development department where we manage donor data. We are noticing we use Airtable more and more since it integrates with our other applications as well.
  • Airtable is amazing in how they can display the data with their view options. You can create a grid, calendar, form, and even kanban views with the same dataset. It is amazing too for visualization.
  • I love the relationships you can easily make without formulas as their filed options.
  • You can actually create an app using their database and form view within minutes.
  • I think it will be great to be able to connect different work bases.
  • I understand their pricing is per workspace, but workspace is really horrible for organizing your bases.
  • Their pricing is not that great for small organizations or non-profits if they need more than what free version can offer.
  • If your business requires a lot of form submission or quick database collaboration, I think Airtable is great for your ROI as opposed to other form app providers.
Google Sheet, Excel, Trello, Slite
I would recommend Airtable to anyone who organizes their data in an Excel sheet. It's just way more fun. While their search keyboard shortcuts are great, I think they can do better at organizing bases and workspaces. It is hard to organize and pricing is a little expensive for their paid version that has great features like "Blocks".
