User-friendly, quick implementation, and effortless database creation
The interfaces provided by the company have certainly undergone significant improvements since their earlier versions. The growth and progress have been remarkable. I have personally shared numerous feedback points and observed the prompt implementation of changes within a few months, which is highly commendable. However, I must admit that I have encountered several challenges with their interfaces. In terms of the interface, there are certain improvements I would suggest. For instance, a global search feature is currently absent, which would greatly enhance usability. Additionally, incorporating a search function within automation would be highly beneficial. The current limitation of fifty automation per base is insufficient for our needs and could be expanded. Moreover, there is a need for a longer native time delay in automation to allow for more flexible syncing. Currently, the syncing time is set at approximately three to five minutes, which could be increased for smoother operations.

Standardization and global information help with instantaneous projections
I recently discussed with them the need for better KPI measurements in the automotive world. A big KPI in the automotive world is the bookings of the future years, and we measure that not in annual revenue but in the lifetime of any given vehicle. Let's say, on average, a vehicle is in the market for five years, so we add up the five years of revenue that is generated with that vehicle. Every region and every account has targets where they have to say, "I'm going to source amount x in the upcoming year." This LOP calculation is not easily done because IHS also has limitations, so right now, it only projects out till 2031 or 2032. For instance, if we launch a program in 2028 that starts in 2030, only two years of data can be seen, and I cannot calculate the life of program revenue. We discussed it with them. They are looking into AI to make longer projections possible and to also improve the quality of the data that we have in the system to calculate this LOP based on historical data or IHS information. They had people who trained our staff, and some people, even though located in the US, were working 24/7 to accommodate our needs in Asia or Europe. These same people also had to implement the system and not just train, which I thought was a bit too much for people to handle. I told them that it would be beneficial to have someone in Asia or Europe to do those types of training during the time when those regions are working. They can have a hotline for simple questions. Sometimes, simple questions disrupt complex tasks. Having dedicated resources for basic inquiries could alleviate this issue. Additionally, it could be beneficial to have training videos within the system to handle routine questions instead of constantly bugging the people who are supposed to do way more complex things than that.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The scripting extension enhances the things that you can do with Airtable."
"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's ability to bring people from different teams and geographies together into say a master calendar, with complete control over who sees what when and in what format, is highly beneficial for communications organizations."
"The solution makes it easy to structure data into simple data tables."
"The product helps us track activities, address complaints, and make improvements."
"It was easy to get started."
"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."
"It is easy to design workflows with, and we don't have to spend tons of money on somebody to write codes."
"Campfire Interactive has saved us time because the data that we are collecting is the same."
"I like the visibility of global opportunities. Prior to using Campfire Interactive, we would conduct Excel-based reporting and sales meetings with everyone bringing their information. Now, we can check it daily, look at the reports daily, and see what is coming into the system and what needs to be managed."
"The combination Campfire uses for the automotive sector, particularly the IHS forecast, offers unique predictive capabilities."
"I appreciate the flexibility of the company more than any specific software feature. I have worked with SAP and other software providers before, and since it is still a smaller company, there is a very personal exchange. If we have a simple need that does not require coding, the company is willing to make changes overnight or even within hours. They are truly flexible and customer-oriented."
 

Cons

"The product's AI feature needs improvement."
"The product should improve the Spanish translation."
"The product is slow when I try to add data to a table using API. There is also a limit on the databases."
"Airtable needs improvement with the loading speed. It takes a lot of time to load."
"It'd be nice if the record limit of 50,000 record limit per base on pro accounts were substantially higher."
"They should allow us to duplicate the data to share it with others."
"Some of the issues associated with the tool were related to some misunderstanding regarding the instructions mentioned in the documentation part of the product."
"I haven't used it in a while, so I cannot really provide specific areas that need improvement."
"Because we use a multitude of modules, some of the interactions from one module to the other are not as seamless or fluid. I would like to see some more fluidness from one module to the other."
"They occasionally became overwhelmed, leading to slowdowns due to the busy workforce."
"Because we use a multitude of modules, some of the interactions from one module to the other are not as seamless or fluid."
"I recently discussed with them the need for better KPI measurements in the automotive world. A big KPI in the automotive world is the bookings of the future years, and we measure that not in annual revenue but in the lifetime of any given vehicle."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's price is good."
"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 is a little bit expensive."
"The solution is not expensive."
"Compared to everything else I have seen, it is very fair."
