"A single place for all our organisation's project records."
"The solution scales well."
"The most useful feature of Microsoft Project Server is you can select a function to see the baseline."
"It'd be nice if the record limit of 50,000 record limit per base on pro accounts were substantially higher."
"Reporting, specifically anything involving exports, could be improved."
"The product is slow when I try to add data to a table using API. There is also a limit on the databases."
"The product's AI feature needs improvement."
"Airtable needs improvement with the loading speed. It takes a lot of time to load."
"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 should improve the Spanish translation."
"The tool has changed the syncing time between the tables which has affected our multiple systems. I would like the product to add more calls per second to the API. It also needs to improve data storage. The tool starts to have problems after having huge amounts of data."
"Resource management has room for improvement because it uses a lot of resources."
"It has to be more user-friendly. For instance, there should be some assistance, like when you go to certain sites, people pop up and say, "Can we help you? What are you looking for?" It's not interactive enough."
"The deployment aspect of the product is a bit tedious."
"It needs to be more collaborative from inside the application. It only does project scheduling for me. It would be good if it could do other things and be more collaborative, such as sharing tasks for users. It is not really incorporated into MS Office, so you can't copy-paste stuff. It is on its own, doing its own thing. It is only used for scheduling, and it doesn't work well with anything else."
"I'd like it if we could divide out the project calendars. On one project server, we might follow five projects or more at one time, and we'd like to see all of the items at once so that it becomes a long loop, but one where we can identify different projects in tandem and then focus on which we need to at the time. While I only have visibility into one, I'd like to see several at a time."
"The initial setup was complex."
"Stability of the solution is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The solution needs to be much more stable."
