Overall Satisfaction with Airtable

We used Airtable as a relational database to manage all aspects of our learning development programs. It was used to centralize information and plan new team member inductions, such as dates, workshops, progress, etc. It was also used for other data related to planning, project management, asset management, etc.

Pros

  • Relational databases.
  • Flexible UI.
  • Powerful automations.

Cons

  • Lacking spreadsheet features.
  • No sheet formula.
  • Increase efficiencies.
  • Centralise collaboration.
  • Reduce manual tasks.
Airtable is a simple and intuitive tool. However, when you first set it up, you need someone who is curious and able to design a system that works for your organisation's use case. This takes some time, but it can be intuitive once it's set up.
Airtable was a really good fit for this specific use case as it provided a huge number of collaboration features in an intuitive and pleasant-to-use interface. The free tier worked initially with our work, and the upgrade pathway was fair and made sense for us.

Airtable is a great fit for smaller organisations that need one collaboration platform for multiple uses, such as project management, automation, reporting, and simple interactive applications based on a central database. It would also be a good fit for functional teams working within a specific vertical, with minimal collaboration requirements outside direct users.
