Overall Satisfaction with Airtable

I use Airtable professionally and personally for the following uses:

1. Planning my wedding
2. Managing to do items
3. Content calendar for clients
4. Hours tracking and invoicing
5. Lead Tracking

I'm such a fan of Airtable that 3 of my clients have implemented it in their organizations after my recommendation. It is great for collaboration between clients and coworkers, or friends and family.

Pros

  • Uploading files to cells - this is so much better than a spreadsheet!
  • Sorting by multi-functions
  • Color coding for ease of reading and sorting
  • Ease of sharing for collaborators

Cons

  • The color scheme isn't very appealing
  • The "blocks" are unclear as to their usage
  • It has had a very positive return. It has saved hours for myself personally.
  • It has made a great impression on clients who appreciate transparency and organization.
  • It has lead to fewer mistakes.
The only comparable product is Google Sheets, which has the easy to use spreadsheet and the ease of collaboration. Airtable far exceeds Google Sheets for its ability to upload into cells, and organize, use templates, etc., however, it does not completely replace the need for Google Sheets, especially for data sets and storage, sorting, or to be able to see more text at a glance.
Event planning, collaborative spreadsheets, data sorting and collecting, media planning, CRM, Lead Generation, or sales templates are some of the cases that Airtable can be used for. It is an extremely customizable spreadsheet-type software that can be made to fulfill any purpose. It is a big improvement on a spreadsheet for project management purposes, but not for financial purposes.
