Centralized sprint tracking has improved collaboration and now simplifies cross-team planning
Airtable offers multiple different features, particularly in the planning sector and calendar options, wherein workspaces can be created and shared with colleagues working together. Airtable provides numerous features such as managing groups, enabling notification preferences, and allowing communication with colleagues wherever they are working, such as if one person is in China and another is in India, with the option to notify changes and customize language preferences. The appearance can be changed and Airtable can be integrated with multiple other tools such as calendars in Microsoft Teams for notifications. You can start with templates or use AI to build custom apps, tailoring workflows. Workspaces are the primary focus because this is where all people have access shared between various different teams, allowing one particular person focusing on one area to make modifications or enhancements that are viewable. 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. After Airtable came into the picture, so much time has been reduced, primarily focusing on productivity and engaging in development. Airtable provides managers with an overview of operations performed, how long tasks take, and the expected completion dates.

Not a calendaring program . It focuses on listing tasks, simplifying collaboration, and Getting Things Done
LiquidPlanner is a great tool for Getting Things Done enthusiasts and project managers in general. It allows you to break down your project into multiple steps with best/worst case time scenarios and then gives you a complete picture of the project timeline and tasks in an easy to understand format. The reminders are fantastic! I have used it has a professional with a paid account, and also as a university student with a free academic account. I have used the timer function to record how much time I am spending on a task so that I can bill clients or to just to have it for future reference, it's a nice feature! Uploading documents really makes sharing and keeping things in a central location very handy.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It was easy to get started."
"Airtable has really benefited us in document storage."
"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."
"The product is very easy to use and flexible."
"The scripting extension enhances the things that you can do with Airtable."
"I am impressed with the tool's continuous improvement. Every six months we get to see a completely different product. You can build a new product using no-code applications. We are able to scale up with the product."
"The solution makes it easy to structure data into simple data tables."
"Airtable's best feature is that it is very easy to use and very convenient."
"The entire organisation is now on the same page, with one source of truth."
"Its dashboards and reports are the most valuable, and we are able to share these reports and other information with our leadership."
"LiquidPlanner is a great tool for Getting Things Done enthusiasts and project managers in general."
 

Cons

"The template library is huge. I have a few suggestions with respect to that. But to complete automation, I think a bit more documentation around that would be really helpful because there are a lot of features in that which common people explore them less"
"The product's AI feature needs improvement."
"They should allow us to duplicate the data to share it with others."
"The product should improve the Spanish translation."
"I believe that the company I worked for did not utilize it to its full potential."
"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."
"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."
"Airtable needs improvement with the loading speed. It takes a lot of time to load."
"I'd like to see more power and triggers in the iOS app."
"Perhaps my only comment is that it is not cheap but in saying that, it is worth every penny."
"It is a little rigorous in its methodology and is cumbersome. For example, I have a hard stop date and I would like a project to end by a specific date, but this is not how this solution works. It sorts of spits out the project date based on your resource availability, dependencies, and so on. This sort of project planning works in theory, but that's not always the case. It also relies heavily on resources entering their time into the system, that is, how much time they worked on each of the tasks so that it can sort of consistently update the project. I know that in a lot of organizations, including ours, it is almost impossible to get them to track the time. In terms of additional features, they can include more integration with Microsoft because integration is going to be a key functionality."
"It is a little rigorous in its methodology and is cumbersome."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is not expensive."
"The product would be expensive for customers with only one application or database."
"The product is a little bit expensive."
"The product's price is good."
"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 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's price is good."
