Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
5.6
Airtable efficiently manages small to medium projects but faces scalability challenges with extensive datasets, impacting performance.
Sentiment score
7.2
Amplitude is highly praised for its scalability, handling large data and real-time processing efficiently for millions of users.
We have multiple departments, and based on my knowledge of how many clients we have on that particular table, I could say it is more than seventeen thousand clients in the whole database.
Senior Product Consultant II at Vimeo
It works well as data and tasks grow, but for very large datasets or highly complex workflows, it can become slower and harder to manage compared to more advanced database tools.
student at a university with 5,001-10,000 employees
Amplitude's scalability is fine; I have millions of active users, tens of millions, with high throughput, and it performs great.
Technical Co-Founder at Crankshaft.ai
Amplitude is very scalable, considering that we do not have to do any manual work ourselves.
Data Analyst & Data Protection Officer at WeSalute
Amplitude is quite scalable.
Senior data engineer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees

Sentiment score
7.9
Airtable is highly stable with minimal disruptions, and issues are promptly addressed despite occasional performance impacts and record limitations.
Sentiment score
8.4
Amplitude is praised for stability and speed with large datasets, though improvements in latency and error messages are suggested.
There was one instance of a glitch due to AWS having issues with some regions where the app was hosted, but aside from that, Airtable is very stable and reliable.

Room For Improvement

Users desire enhanced AI features, flexible sharing, intuitive interface, improved integration, and efficient documentation in a cost-effective solution.
Users desire improved report setup, visualization, query building, tagging, data retention, support, and feature discovery for enhanced analytics.
I really want to see a scenario where collaborators working on a project could easily chat, asking questions and discussing changes immediately on the project.
Automation Specialist at ZapWorx
If they show step-by-step guides for automations, this will help them attract more clients who are willing to learn and use their system.
Business automation Expert at INSTRUTECH LIMITED
The CRM features in Airtable aren't as advanced as those in Monday.com, which allows for email campaigns.
Automation Specialist at Upwork
Support could be improved. Sometimes I need to create a ticket and communicate with one of their advisors via email.
Data Science Engineer at BebopBee, Inc.
Longer form time series analysis seems nearly impossible to do on this platform.
Data Analyst & Data Protection Officer at WeSalute
Reconciling clickstream data with Databricks or other AWS systems could help analysts spend less time verifying the accuracy of both sources, which would be really helpful.
Senior Business Analyst at Arcteryx
 

Setup Cost

Airtable pricing varies by user count and plan, with costs increasing for advanced features and enterprise plans.
Amplitude's high pricing and complex billing for larger data volumes cause challenges and lengthy negotiations for users.
For more advanced features such as automation and larger data limits, pricing can become quite high, especially for student budgets, and licensing depends on the team size and required features.
student at a university with 5,001-10,000 employees
Pricing is often egregiously high, and the company has changed billing models on us once already.
Data Analyst & Data Protection Officer at WeSalute
We are using a free version and would upgrade to a paid version if it were cheaper.
CEO at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Amplitude's pricing is good and not overpriced; it is fair for the amount of data we are extracting and the analysis we perform.
Senior data engineer at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
 

Valuable Features

Airtable excels in automation, user-friendliness, and flexibility, streamlining tasks and enhancing workflow efficiency with robust features.
Amplitude excels in segmentation, cohort analysis, and integration, enhancing data-driven decision-making and user experience optimization.
Everybody has a particular base for different purposes, so you add information to those bases, and anybody can access it at any point in time anywhere in the world.
Business automation Expert at INSTRUTECH LIMITED
I can integrate Airtable with other platforms; aside from the native integration where I can send notifications to Slack teams and messages to Gmail, I can also connect with Make.com to share data.
Automation Specialist at ZapWorx
We have connected our Slack channel to Airtable; any updates or changes made to Airtable will always reflect in the Slack channel.
Senior Product Consultant II at Vimeo
Based on Amplitude charts and outcomes, our product team takes decisions, so it has improved decision-making.
Data Science Engineer at BebopBee, Inc.
Amplitude has positively impacted my organization as it allows us to make decisions based on data and iterate faster.
CEO at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Collaboration was a significant part. What improves collaboration is the self-serve functionality, which was a big deal for PMs to have access to just that data and also the base layer of how that data is structured, which connects to clicks that every report refers to.

Favour Emosivbe - PeerSpot reviewer
Automation Specialist at ZapWorx
Has required stronger collaboration features while still supporting complex project workflows
The best features in Airtable include the flexibility and the fact that I could create relational databases. Before I started using Airtable, I was using Excel which didn't offer these capabilities. The ability to create relationships between tables and see through what's working in other departments is great for me. I can do scripting and work on large data sets on Airtable. It makes it easy for me, as working on those data sets on Excel tends to slow me down, but on Airtable, it's much faster. I can integrate Airtable with other platforms; aside from the native integration where I can send notifications to Slack teams and messages to Gmail, I can also connect with Make.com to share data. The interface on Airtable is exceptional. Working for my clients, when a client didn't want access given to all teams, we structured that on the interface and the different teams got different access to different tables. Airtable's rich field types help in organizing complex data for my team. The advanced field types work exceptionally with features such as linking records together. I can link records from other tables and see what's happening, use the lookup field, the roll-up field, and the count field to see what's occurring in other departments and generate insights. Unlike other CRMs, data cannot enter if it's not properly structured. If I want to input an email and it's not valid, it won't allow it because it expects the data to be structured appropriately.

Empowers teams to build visualization-rich reports and make faster decisions using historical user behavior data
I think areas for Amplitude's improvement include data retention. The maximum data I have worked with, the clickstream data on Amplitude, is two years, whereas we rely on Tableau for historical data of at least two years. I am not sure whether it was my organization paying for lower retention or not, but having historical data would take away the reliance on Tableau. Secondly, reconciling clickstream data with Databricks or other AWS systems could help analysts spend less time verifying the accuracy of both sources, which would be really helpful. Lastly, a more focused approach on error logs is necessary. I have found that, at least with Intuit, we used Splunk more for error logs than Amplitude. Although Amplitude had the capability, developers seemed to prefer Splunk, so if that could be improved, it would be good.
