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

"Sometimes the customer will not provide any data. Using Automation Anywhere, we can easily automate to capture the customer data. Then, we can use that customer data inside the Cisco Unified Wire Voice Portal."

"Automation Anywhere is easy to use and user-friendly due to its intuitive interface and straightforward implementation architecture, making it accessible even for those without a technical background."

"Automation Anywhere offers valuable features, including command packages for PDF, Windows, XML, and Excel, as well as universal recording capabilities."

"Co-pilot certainly makes the job easier if the client has a subscription. It allows me to analyze desktop flows and activities and create flows using natural language."

"One of the features that we have used the most is an action in the Workbench called Object Cloning. We find that very reliable and very useful for implementing different business processes."

"For business professionals, it automates repetitive tasks and enhances efficiency and cost savings."

"When I compare it with other RPA tools, Automation Anywhere seems pretty good. It's a user-friendly tool. Anyone can easily understand it. If there is an error, you can easily debug it from the developer level. In Automation Anywhere, the error handling happens in the easiest way. In case of an error, we send an email. It's not too difficult code to understand. There's only beginning and ending error handling, which is easy to understand."

"When it comes to financials, Automation Anywhere has done amazing work in ensuring not only the speed and accuracy of the bot, but also the compliance and error controls through which the bot executes the job at very high satisfaction and tolerance levels."

More Automation Anywhere pros

"It was easy to get started."

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

"The product helps us track activities, address complaints, and make improvements."

"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 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."

"Airtable has really benefited us in document storage."

"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."

More Airtable pros

"We have built a workflow using this solution to do our day-to-day operations and then monitor our agents in the field, and we are able to track their work when they do projects and when they finish their tasks, getting a report on all of this information which has definitely made life easier."

"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."

"The security of the solution is very good."

"I chose this solution because it was cheaper than other competitors, more flexible and safe."

"A feature I found most valuable in AppSheet is its intuitive UI/UX design, as that makes the platform very easy for customers to use. The solution also has a drag and drop feature that's quite good. I also found AppSheet integration with the cloud platform to be quite good."

"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."

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

More AppSheet pros

Cons

"We have had some difficulty with ease of use. In addition, we have had some difficulties getting it to interact in predictable ways with our in-house software."

"We have a challenge in our front office automation where capturing details from a table within a table does not happen in the existing AA Enterprise client version 11.3.4. The AA team tries various methods like using an Excel spreadsheet to capture the tables."

"When working with Excel, unlike other tools such as UiPath, Automation Anywhere does not have the standard variables for .Net data types."

"I would like to see a bot button."

"I have noticed that after the bots have been delivered to run in a production environment, there are issues in terms of quality and performance."

"Automation Anywhere can be improved by integrating self-correction capabilities into the bots, particularly as we develop RPA, where changes in environment paths require additional redeveloping efforts."

"They could improve around continuous integration, e.g., Jenkins and GitHub, stating how you could use those products and integrating them into Automation Anywhere."

"In Automation Anywhere, the logging process is manual."

More Automation Anywhere cons

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

"The product is slow when I try to add data to a table using API. There is also a limit on the databases."

"The user interface should be more intuitive."

"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."

"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."

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

"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."

More Airtable cons

"AppSheet should continue to make the tool's features easy to use, such as the ability to add additional notes or notifications."

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

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

"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."

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

"In terms of areas for improvement in AppSheet, I do many things with it, and I'm happy with its data features. The solution has good data features, and though some basic functions may not be there, AppSheet is good enough for me at the moment. I can use it in my business. I like it, and I'm still happy with it because I'm not using it intensively. I just use AppSheet for simple tasks rather than complex ones, though the solution has many use cases. In its next release, what could make the solution better would be more partners for integration, for example, integration with SAP, particularly plugins or APIs with more partners that it could integrate with. There should be an out-of-the-box feature built for integration with more partners."

"If I need more than that figure, then I'm not sure how scalable AppSheet is."

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

More AppSheet cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is affordable and I would recommend beginning with the Starter Package."

"It is subscription-based. They have different schemes. The price depends on how you negotiate with the local partner or local representative in your country."

"I am not sure about the costs, but two Bot Runners and four Bot Creators may cost approximately 1CR."

"It is one of the most affordable RPA solutions, and as for licensing, they offer a community edition that greatly helps anyone who aspires to learn about the product before buying the enterprise solution."

"Automation Anywhere's pricing falls within the mid-range, but the long-term benefits outweigh the initial investment."

"Complaints are generally about the cost of IQ Bot, which is higher than its competitors. The base model’s pricing is comparable to other platforms with attended, unattended, and IDP capabilities as well."

"Automation Anywhere is expensive, making it suitable only for enterprise organizations."

"If you are looking into Automation Anywhere, get the Community Edition and play with it."

More Automation Anywhere pricing and cost advice

"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 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."

"The solution is not expensive."

"The product is a little bit expensive."

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

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

More Airtable pricing and cost advice

"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."

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

"The tool is available at a low price."

"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."
