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.

Query automation has reduced investigation time and frees our team to focus on complex DevOps tasks
The best features Query.ai offers make anything with queries much easier, and it ensures that it is very optimistically correct with whatever it is doing. It also delivers access throughout real-time and historical data, making it really quick and fast to act upon. The real-time and historical data access from Query.ai helps me in my work by allowing me to go through queries quicker, so even if there are errors anywhere, detection happens pretty fast. Because it is on automation and the investigation is done really quickly, it saves a lot of my time. Query.ai has positively impacted my organization by being very appreciative for what it has done and how there is lesser work task on ourselves, and we could be focusing on more things because as DevOps, we have a lot of work. The reduction in workload due to Query.ai has made things easier, especially every time we need to investigate why an SQL query is not loading or if it is duplicating. It is especially effective during access management to either provision or de-provision access for users.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I appreciated the ability to configure a graphical interface for a database, which was quite novel at the time."
"The relations and multiple-choice options are the most valuable features. For example, if I have one client but multiple projects in the same client, it's much easier to map it with Airtable than if I use a Google Sheet. The relationship between interfaces is a key feature that I use very often."
"The scripting extension enhances the things that you can do with Airtable."
"It was easy to get started."
"With Airtable, we saw clear improvements in efficiency, especially in time and coordination."
"Airtable does it all with Excel database functionality, spreadsheet capabilities, automation, and visually appealing interfaces, and data insights change in real-time, making it flexible and user-friendly."
"The product helps us track activities, address complaints, and make improvements."
"Airtable's best feature is that it is very easy to use and very convenient."
"Time saving and accuracy are the main benefits; in my data mart and data lakes project, Query.ai has been very useful, with all transformations automated, which had a huge impact on our entire project."
"Query.ai helps reduce costs and improve security in my organization, though I do not have the actual numbers, but the impact was significant."
"Query.ai has positively impacted my organization by being very appreciative for what it has done and how there is lesser work task on ourselves, and we could be focusing on more things because as DevOps, we have a lot of work."
 

Cons

"The user interface should be more intuitive."
"Airtable needs improvement with the loading speed. It takes a lot of time to load."
"I believe that the company I worked for did not utilize it to its full potential."
"They should allow us to duplicate the data to share it with others."
"What I would to see improved in Airtable is a chat feature. 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."
"Sometimes when we go through the whole projects or the sites, it gets stuck or it loads slowly."
"The product should improve the Spanish translation."
"The tool has changed the syncing time between the tables which has affected our multiple systems. I would like the product to add more calls per second to the API. It also needs to improve data storage. The tool starts to have problems after having huge amounts of data."
"Probably Query.ai could be a little more optimized, but it is good."
"Query.ai performs well, but there are other software options that do auditing a little better."
"I felt the pricing is somewhat higher."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Airtable's pricing depends on the plan that you're on."
"The product would be expensive for customers with only one application or database."
"We are utilizing the free version of the software, which adequately meets most of our requirements. As we explore the higher-end versions, we have noticed that the primary distinctions lie in the number of records and usage limitations. However, the free version offers comprehensive functionality, and the disparity between the free and paid versions is minimal, with only a few minor differences."
"The product's price is good."
"The solution is not expensive."
"The tool's pricing is based on the number of users. The product's pricing is okay for personal use. For large organizations, pricing can be a pain. As per the first-rate plan, you need to pay 10 USD per user. The next plan would cost you 20 USD per user. If you are looking for enterprise-type plans, then you need to contact the sales team."
"For basic usage, Airtable is an open-source tool but if you need premium features like script automation, then you need to pay for it. As my clients provide me access after buying the subscription I do not have much knowledge about pricing."
"The product is a little bit expensive."
