Why Airtable

  • Customizable

    Digital solutions should be built to fit your existing operation, not the other way around. Airtable is a fully customizable database that allows you to record, connect, and track the data that is important to you. With a flexible database, we can build a single application or a fully integrated system that drives process adherence, captures key performance indicators, improves efficiency, and delivers functionality.

  • Configurable

    The structure of Airtable allows you to implement solutions and features for specific operational units and then connect (or relate) databases to other areas as you grow. For example, we can build a standalone application to manage your Material Compliance data that then feeds into your Inventory Management, Quality Inspection, Quality Management System, Manufacturing Execution, Customer Relationship Management, etc.

  • Scalable

    Airtable is an affordable solution for building operational and data driven applications. Your data storage and user accounts grow only when you need it to, with no minimum requirements. Airtable scales in size and scope as needed, without requiring you to spend enormous amounts on complex and inefficient ERPs.

  • Secure

    Data stored in Airtable is secure. Data is encrypted when in transit between servers and browser and it is encrypted when stored on Airtable’s servers. Airtable backs up data in separate and isolated servers. And Airtable is certified for SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001.

  • Automatable

    Reduce data entry and repetitive work flow tasks with Airtable’s built in automations. In addition, robust API capabilities ensure that work flow automation is a core feature. Airtable’s customizable nature gives you full control over what is automated and how.

  • Intuitive

    With Airtable, you can build digital workflows and data management that fit your processes. With a properly configured interface, employees will find Airtable to be one of the easiest digital tools to navigate. And employee buy-in is the most important part of a successful software implementation.
