Avis clients sur Airtable

Avantages

Outil tout-en-un qui très puissant qui permet de faire de nombreux choses, que ce soit en interne ou pour des clients, et qui peut également servir de base de données et être associé à un outil de front-end pour avoir un portail utilisateur plus ergonomique/beauIl y a 3 onglets, un pour les données, un pour l'automatisation, et un pour les interfaces (interne uniquement).

Inconvénients

L'application mobile ne fonctionne pas en mode déconnecté et c'est un gros point noir pour mon utilisation personnelle

Avantages

Airtable offre la garantie de créer des bases de données hyper flexibles. Quels que soient nos besoins spécifiques, il est possible de créer des personnalisations poussées pour travailler de manière adaptée, et de façon collaborative, grâce aux fonctionnalités de collaboration en temps réel. J'apprécie particulièrement les fonctionnalités de filtrage avancés, très pratique lorsque les bases de données se complexifient !

Inconvénients

Airtable est un logiciel très convivial, mais quand on démarre dans la création ou l'utilisation de bases de données, il peut être un peu complexe de comprendre les fonctionnalités avancées.

Avantages

J'ai particulièrement apprécié la notion de structure et typage de donnée qui rend la base qualitative (contrairement à un excel ou google sheet).Airtable répond principalement à 2 enjeux (qu'un google sheet ne fait par par exemple) :- La gestion des permissions par utilisateur- Le typage des données et la gestion des interdépendances entre les données- Le système de présentation (vue) d'une table qui permet de mieux faire parler la data en la rendant "lisible"- Le système Interfaces qui permet de créer des "rapports" qualitatifs sans avoir à coder une seule ligne ...

Inconvénients

Le prix augmente vite avec le nombre de collaborateur, même passifs ...Je ne comprend tjs pas pourquoi on ne peut pas avoir de clé "unique" comme identifiantAttention aux limites d'appels API ...

Avantages

Customisation en fonction des besoins et des projets, une utilité que je n'ai trouvé nulle part ailleurs !

Inconvénients

Certaines actions nécessite un paramétrage très spécifique et qui peu être compliqué

Avantages

Ce logiciel depuis que je l'ai tout est devenu assez simple j'ai une gestion très facile de ma plateforme et surtout j'ai dû mettre mes flux de travail en place en toute facilité c'est vraiment adorable, je recommande énormément

Inconvénients

Le seul ennui que j'ai pu avoir c'était au début je n'arrivais pas à l'utiliser mais je me suis fait en un peu de temps j'avais trouvé cela normal car c'était mon début

Avantages

Pouvoir crée ses procès et sa base de zéro et de manière totalement intuitif

Inconvénients

Limite en version gratuitePour aller plus loin faut savoir coder

Avantages

le logiciel est très stable et ne se bloque pas ou ne se ferme pas de manière inattendue. Les mises à jour et les corrections de bugs sont fréquentes et transparentes, et j'ai constaté que le logiciel reste à jour avec les dernières technologies et les dernières tendances du marché.Dans l'ensemble, je recommande fortement cet logiciel à quiconque cherche une solution fiable et performante pour ses besoins. Le bon fonctionnement du logiciel en fait une excellente option pour les professionnels, les étudiants, ou pour toute personne ayant besoin d'un outil performant et fiable pour accomplir ses tâches quotidiennes.

Inconvénients

j'ai rencontré plusieurs bugs et ralentissements dans l'application, ce qui a considérablement affecté mon expérience utilisateur. En outre, j'ai remarqué que l'application manquait de certaines fonctionnalités essentielles que l'on trouve souvent dans d'autres applications similaires, ce qui a rendu la réalisation de certaines tâches plus difficiles et plus compliquées que nécessaire.

Avantages

La base de donnée et la mises en relations des tables

Inconvénients

Rien a signaler car l application est super

Avantages

Interface utilisateur visuellement attrayante
Systèmes de suivi des tâches flexibles
Beaucoup de modèles de projets à choisir

Inconvénients

Potentiellement déroutant sans instructions
Autorisations utilisateur limitées
Interface Anglais seulement

Avantages

The fact that basically all database applications I tried were basically meant for enterprise-level businesses, and generally required a steep learning curve to even set up. I only needed basic database functionality, and to be able to easily edit single or groups of entries. AirTable solved this perfectly. Also, the team over there seem to be constantly adding on new functionality, which I see and realize that could solve problems I did not even realize I had. The best part is just how easy it is to use. I have some people on my team that are far from tech-savvy, and with a quick overview, they were even able to utilize it.

Inconvénients

Their forms have a bit to be desired, but that is mostly just the appearance when I send them out. Also when sorting and filtering, it requires 3 or so clicks, when I think they could make it one.

Pourquoi passer à Airtable

Other products were too complicated to set up and use effectively, So I did not use them. AirTable is really in a class of its own as far as I can tell.

Avantages

Airtable, without a doubt, has become an indispensable tool for managing data and streamlining our workflows. From the moment we started utilizing this platform, it became evident that Airtable offers a comprehensive solution that combines the power of a spreadsheet with the flexibility of a database. Here are the aspects I liked most about Airtable:1. Intuitive and User-Friendly Interface: Airtable's interface is exceptionally intuitive, allowing users of all technical backgrounds to dive in and start creating powerful databases with ease. The drag-and-drop functionality, coupled with its familiar spreadsheet-like layout, enables effortless navigation and efficient data organization. 2. Customizable and Flexible: One of the standout features of Airtable is its unparalleled flexibility and customizability. 3. Powerful Collaboration Features: Airtable excels in fostering collaboration within teams. The commenting and notification features make it easy to communicate and keep everyone in the loop, fostering efficient teamwork and enhancing productivity.4. Versatile Integration Options: Airtable's integration capabilities are truly impressive. The platform seamlessly integrates with numerous third-party tools, enabling us to connect our data with other essential software in our workflow. 5. Robust Data Visualization and Reporting: Airtable offers powerful data visualization and reporting features that transform raw data into meaningful insights.

Inconvénients

While my overall experience with Airtable has been overwhelmingly positive, I would like to mention a couple of minor aspects that I found less favorable. It's important to note that these are subjective observations, and they may not impact every user in the same way. Here are the aspects I liked least about Airtable:1. Steep Learning Curve for Advanced Features: While Airtable's basic functionality is intuitive and user-friendly, I found that some of the more advanced features and capabilities require a steeper learning curve. For users who are not familiar with databases or have limited experience with complex data structures, it may take some time to fully grasp and utilize the full potential of these advanced features. However, with the available documentation and resources provided by Airtable, the learning curve can be overcome.2. Limited Native Reporting and Analytics: While Airtable offers powerful visualization options and customizable views, I found that the native reporting and analytics capabilities are somewhat limited compared to specialized reporting tools. However, Airtable's robust integration options allow for seamless data transfer to third-party analytics tools to compensate for this limitation.

Avantages

User-friendly interface that's easy to navigate.Free plan with basic features.

Inconvénients

Mobile app functionality is limited compared to desktop version.

Avantages

Airtable is a powerful and intuitive tool that makes it easy to streamline my projects. It offers a wide array of features such as data organization, collaboration, form building, and more. With Airtable, I can easily keep track of all my projects in one place, and make sure everyone is on the same page.

Inconvénients

Although Airtable is a great tool, there are some areas of improvement. The user interface can be a bit confusing at times, and I have found the search function to be unreliable. Additionally, there are some features that I would like to see added, such as more customization options and third-party integrations.

Avantages

Collaboration: Airtable allows teams to collaborate in real-time, providing a shared workspace where team members can add and edit records simultaneously. You can also assign tasks and deadlines, leave comments, and tag team members to keep everyone on the same page.Integration: Airtable integrates with a wide range of third-party apps, such as Slack, Dropbox, and Google Drive. This makes it easy to import data from other sources and keep everything organized in one place.

Inconvénients

Data Security: Since Airtable is a cloud-based tool, there are concerns about data security and privacy. While Airtable uses SSL encryption and other security measures to protect user data, there is always a risk that data could be compromised in the event of a security breach.Cost: While Airtable offers a free basic plan, more advanced plans can be expensive for larger teams. Depending on your needs, you may need to pay for additional features or upgrades to access the full range of Airtable's capabilities.

Avantages

If you're on a tight budget, Airtable is a fantastic free option to try out. It has a lovely interface and a great project management tool. It's a crucial tool for online teamwork. There are great premade templates that give awesome insight on how powerful the software really is. I'm constantly amazed by its capabilities.

Inconvénients

If you haven't used it before, it could be a little challenging to comprehend how it operates. The only thing about Airtable I don't like is that some of the more sophisticated features can be difficult to use, especially for individuals who are unfamiliar with this software. The number of records, attachments, and revision histories are limited on their free plan.

Avantages

It is an easy-to-use and versatile database, perfect for handling all the information your business needs. Its user-friendly interface allows you to create custom fields and filters to organize and view your data.

Inconvénients

We had a terrible experience with Airtable support recently. They restricted our workspace, which prevented us from using our base for more than two weeks. This was a huge problem for us, as our business relies entirely on our Airtable information, which is tied up with all of our websites, day-to-day operations, and payments. We were extremely frustrated with the situation and the lack of support we received from Airtable.To make things worse, their support team only answered our inquiries after 1-2 days, which made the situation even more unbearable. It was also tough to upgrade our plan and unlock our base, which made us lose valuable time and money.

Avantages

Ease of use, flexibility, API, exporting databases to JSON, integration with Make, and the ability to share databases with others.

Inconvénients

Limits on the number of records in the database and a large entry threshold between the free version and the first paid plan.

Avantages

It's easy to use, suitable for all sizes of business, with a free version that's excellent for getting started.

Inconvénients

In the two years I've been using it, I've had no complaints whatsoever.

Avantages

AirTable is versatile flexibility and flexibility in changing with different applications. The platform enables users to create and customize custom databases according to their specific needs, whether for project management, content management, inventory tracking, or any other task depending on the data

Inconvénients

Airtable’s formula field enables users to perform calculations and create dynamic relationships between fields. However, we found that formula syntax was complex or limiting in many aspects. Improvements in formula functionality, such as new functionality or better documentation, can address these concerns.

Avantages

We use Airtable as almost anything. If you are familiar with Airtable, you know that it can be anything. Just to name a few:

Marketing task management
Document and resource listing
Forms for recruiting or surveys
Content planning
CRM
Documenting any sort of research
Visualising simple data
Expense tracking

Inconvénients

Airtable's some of the premium features are not very clear. So sometimes you have to stuck in some free features without knowing that you are already over capacity. However, using this product with free option for about 2-3 years in 2 different company so far. It's great! I also use Airtable for personal stuff like school applications, job hunting, and document/resource listing.

Pourquoi choisir Airtable 

Excel is useless for task or project management.

Pourquoi passer à Airtable

Airtable is great with free option.

Avantages

Airtable, once learned, is simple to use for data collection, data management, and reporting. We like being able to build custom forms, quickly, to add data to records and it makes our employee's jobs easier. The mobile features are strong and allow us to get work done on the road by phone, and we feel like our data is safe and accessible.

Inconvénients

Airtable has a learning curve for admin and users. Not to say this is Airtable's fault, but to say Airtble is "plug and play" would be false. This learning curve has proven time consuming and creates delays when onboarding new employees who's strength is not data management platforms.

Avantages

I love everything about the forms in Airtable. They are completely customizable. They populate the data in an easy-to-read spreadsheet. It sends me automatic notifications every time that someone fills out a form. It keeps all of my systems and my school organized because I have a form for everything and there are no limits on how many forms I can have it really has allowed me to create a beautiful system of collecting data.

Inconvénients

There’s a ton of features in Airtable that I don’t use. I think when I first started I spent a long time trying to figure out how I can use their other features. However, I don’t think that every feature that they have is worth using. However, since there is no cost to Airtable that doesn’t matter.

Avantages

This software is super easy to use and has so many different options for "viewing" which allows something for everybody. There are so many different connections as well and the Block features allow our team to be very efficient with our client projects.

Inconvénients

There is no way to reach out to somebody on customer support. I wish there was a chat option for customer support. There really isn't any training that comes alot with it. There are some videos but if there was a way to setup a webinar with an account manager there to help us learn more ways we could be using it, that would be ideal.

Pourquoi choisir Airtable 

We came across Airtable and saw that it was much better than what we were currently utilizing.

Pourquoi passer à Airtable

Airtable seemed like the more affordable choice.

Avantages

Airtable is an extremely powerful and flexible database management tool that allows me to quickly capture, organize, and access data across multiple platforms. Its intuitive interface makes it easy to set up and manage my database, and its powerful features allow me to customize my database to fit my needs.

Inconvénients

Despite its powerful capabilities, Airtable does have some drawbacks. Its pricing structure can be confusing and expensive for some users, and its customization options can be overwhelming. Additionally, some users may find its learning curve to be steep.

Avantages

The simplest form of using Airtable is still so much better than using Excel Spreadsheets. Airtable is fairly easy to use, however, does take a bit of time to learn about so many of the features it has to offer. I could probably apply more time in learning how it could further benefit the way I use it every day in my business.

Inconvénients

I do find there are SO MANY great features, it might be nice to have an onboarding specialist... heck I've been such a long-time user maybe they have this. Their customer support is top-notch and quick to respond to any requests.

Pourquoi passer à Airtable

I had seen these other products about a year into using Airtable and was pretty content with my current situation, I took a look at ClickUp and it just seemed too bloated for what I needed. Monday also. Airtable is just a lot easier to use in a simple manner or a more complex manner when you are ready for it.
