Executive SummaryUpdated on Mar 15, 2026

Airtable and AppSheet compete in the space of application development and database management. Airtable holds an upper hand in features due to its robust automation and relational database capabilities, while AppSheet shines with real-time updates and a mobile-first approach.

Features: Airtable offers advanced automation, relational database management, and seamless integration capabilities, making it versatile for diverse tasks such as complex scripting and data organization. AppSheet excels with real-time updates, integration with Google services, and ease of mobile access, providing robust functionality for team collaborations.

Room for Improvement: Airtable needs better syncing times, more scalable data limits, and improved cost structures. Enhanced automation triggers and collaborative features like chat are desirable. AppSheet could improve integration capabilities, notification systems, and global usability. Both need clearer pricing structures and user-access management enhancements.

Venkat Sivaprakash

Management Consultant at Accenture

Has significantly improved document-driven workflows and reduced processing time across finance and HR functions

Automation Anywhere has evolved significantly and upgraded itself to provide agentic AI and AI-based automation solutions for document automation. The product has matured considerably over time. We can create workflows that can call an API. We can include prompts in particular workflows for ChatGPT-related functions, connecting to an LLM and RAG to perform tasks. For document automation, modern features are available to train documents, ensuring high accuracy and repeatability over time. The system is very easy to use. I recently completed a course in document automation, typically designed for people involved in coding and technical aspects. Though I understand coding comprehensively, I don't do actual coding. The course was very accessible. Currently, extensive coding isn't necessary due to the hybrid model incorporating GenAI aspects, low-code, no-code capabilities, APIs, and numerous pre-built objects in Automation Anywhere. The features include GenAI-driven prompting methods and workflow creation capabilities. In these workflows, we can create decision boxes and call APIs without coding. We simply pull objects, drop them, connect them, and add minimal coding when needed. The most crucial aspect isn't coding but rather sizing the automation and fleshing out the details. Automation Co-pilot takes notes and performs automated analysis. It can extract details from videos, summarize conversations, and provide detailed information. During calls, it identifies instructions and performs tasks such as preparing reports and reconciliation. Automation Anywhere can also connect with Microsoft Co-pilot. Through Co-pilot, real-time operations can be executed, allowing direct interaction between vendors and automation through this component.

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.

Centralized task tracking has transformed team collaboration and has saved significant time

The features or capabilities of AppSheet that I have found the most valuable include Freeze Panes, which is one of the most valuable features, and Dropdown, which is another valuable feature. Freeze Panes is extremely important because it freezes the first top row of the sheet. When I'm scrolling the sheet and going down, I can see the first row on the screen full time while scrolling to my data. This is a very beautiful feature of Google Sheets. Additionally, the dropdown feature allows me to write yes, no, and not applicable against a particular line item without typing every time by creating a dropdown. I write it once with yes, no, not applicable, and then I select that option. The real-time updates in AppSheet improve collaboration in my team because 40 people in the same department operate on a single Google Sheet. They all update their tasks, their projects, and everything on that same sheet, which is a massive leap in technology. Otherwise, I would be mailing a single Excel sheet to 40 people and getting everybody's input from them all manually, which would be extremely time-consuming. It's a massive technology jump when it comes to collaboration.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Automation Anywhere has helped us with efficiency and accuracy."

"Automation Anywhere has surely helped our organization to shape its Digital Journey - It was our first RPA tool which helped us to perform basic automation which created Point solutions but has added tremendous value at the early stage. We were able to scale-up fast using Automation Anywhere due to its user-friendly AI and later on IQ Bots provided the required edge to handle the unstructured data."

"We automated these processes so they will be processed automatically, and users will get the end result for validation—it is basically time-saving for them."

"I would rate this solution a ten out of ten."

"Automation Anywhere has very strong game because it is always up for asking feedback."

"Scheduling helps to generate and send reports without any delay."

"The feature I appreciate the most about Automation Anywhere is the interface."

"For the tasks that I do repeatedly, I can record processes using Automation Anywhere. I record mouse and keyboard actions and create a workflow for those activities. This minimizes my workload. The recording option is very useful."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"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 sorting of the data is the best feature of Airtable. In a Google sheet I have to insert some data and Airtable provides the default option of doing it automatically."

"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 solution makes it easy to structure data into simple data tables."

"It was easy to get started."

"Airtable has had a positive impact, where previously reliance was placed on a calendar schedule for stand-up calls, spending lots of hours to understand who worked on which task, and after Airtable came into the picture, so much time has been reduced, primarily focusing on productivity and engaging in development."

"Airtable's best feature is that it is very easy to use and very convenient."

"Airtable's customizable views are beneficial for managing my projects, as it offers broad features that even allow someone who understands it thoroughly to operate without needing external tools."

More Airtable pros

"The real-time updates in AppSheet improve collaboration in my team because 40 people in the same department operate on a single Google Sheet, and they all update their tasks, their projects, and everything on that same sheet, which is a massive leap in technology."

"The solution allows for many great features, including easy column formatting that automatically applies the correct formats for phone numbers and dates, helpful data linking, robust email integration, very good security, and it is a very good no-code development platform."

"With Google, even if you find a bug or something, it is solved quickly."

"The solution has been very user friendly, easy to use, and we are able to use many applications like Excel or Google sheets."

"The security of the solution is very good."

"I have found the way they structure the workflow and the fact that it a progressive application is valuable for me. This allows me to be able to build it once and use it in multiple formats."

"AppSheet is easy to set up and easy to use."

"The solution is quite efficient, elaborate, sophisticated, fast, and easy to use."

More AppSheet pros

Cons

"There are some business areas for which this tool is not capable of doing, such as in the areas of graphically-based input."

"One area where I think there's an opportunity to do things a lot better is in the analytics function. They do have a concept or product called Bot Insights. It hasn't worked for us. It isn't as plug and play as we were led to believe, which is unfortunate. I can absolutely understand the value, and the demonstrations that I've seen of Bot Insights are sensational. But, we just haven't been able to make it work. We've invested a lot of time and effort trying to make it work to no avail."

"Sometimes, while recording, the screen hangs and we are not able to perform any actions during that time."

"With the user interface, a lot of the parts of it I really like, but there are some things that could be made a little simpler. A little less clicking around here and dragging over there to use."

"There is room for improvement in the stability of this product."

"Its pricing definitely needs to be more competitive. When licensing costs are high, we cannot use this tool for automation."

"I need high value products to be created, so I need integration with other solutions. Machine learning and AI need to be integrated with Automation Anywhere. While IQ Bot is a good beginning, our company does not work with manual paperwork since we are already digital. We would like to see more integration with cognitive tools going forward."

"On the cognitive side, some of their competitors, when we were originally shopping, were a little more advanced in that space. Making use of probabilistic outcomes and presenting them to a business user is a feature that, at the time of our evaluation, did not feel like a strong, mature solution for Automation Anywhere. Nevertheless, they won our business. That is one feature where I feel they are trying to make investments to address those gaps."

More Automation Anywhere cons

"Some of the issues associated with the tool were related to some misunderstanding regarding the instructions mentioned in the documentation part of the product."

"The user interface should be more intuitive."

"Reporting, specifically anything involving exports, could be improved."

"The product's AI feature needs improvement."

"Airtable needs improvement with the loading speed. It takes a lot of time to load."

"I haven't used it in a while, so I cannot really provide specific areas that need improvement."

"One area of Airtable that I think could be improved is the automation aspect, which is vast but limited compared to tools such as GoHighLevel, where multiple triggers can be utilized."

"I believe that the company I worked for did not utilize it to its full potential."

More Airtable cons

"They could improve by providing more language support other than English especially the languages that written from right to left such as Arabic , integrate better with other databases, and provide a better UX."

"What I think could be improved or enhanced in AppSheet includes the timeline feature, as that is something which is a real pain point and not very efficient in Google Sheets."

"Stability is the leading risk. We can't ensure that the solution will last since, if Google decides something, it's finished."

"They only give a single sign-on at a very high cost. The pricing is too high and the overall solution is far too expensive."

"No improvements are required as AppSheet is quite efficient."

"There needs to be an improvement in their operation vision. They need to see things more globally because at the moment they are very North-America focused. We do not always have mobile applications and the way we use them is slightly different in Africa from the way they use them in America."

"The solution needs to improve its SQL database capabilities."

"There are now a lot of low-code or no-code applications available on the web. AppSheet is working on that path."

More AppSheet cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere is expensive."

"Automation Anywhere falls within a mid-range price point when compared to other RPA tools on the market."

"The pricing is a bit higher."

"The licensing needs to be made simpler or shortened."

"Initially, they charged a premium, but now the rest of the vendors have increased their overall pricing and Automation Anywhere is not that high at this time. It's pretty viable."

"We just did a round of price comparison on a global scale and found it's so hard to compare the license prices. But, Automation Anywhere, in general, is on the same price level as the other vendors, a bit lower in some cases."

"On a yearly basis, our licensing costs are about $80,000. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fees."

"The licensing cost of Automation Anywhere is better than UiPath and Blue Prism."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"The product's price is good."

"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."

"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 would be expensive for customers with only one application or database."

"Airtable's pricing depends on the plan that you're on."

"The product's price is good."

"The solution is not expensive."

"The product is a little bit expensive."

More Airtable pricing and cost advice

"I chose this solution because it was cheaper than other competitors."

"The tool is available at a low price."

"In terms of how much AppSheet costs, I'm currently on the free tier, but if I need to add more users to it in the future, I will go with the paid version."

"There is a license required to use this solution and it costs approximately $10 per user a month. I am paying $300 a month for 30 licenses."
