i migrated about 4 months ago from airtable. heres my experience:
- csv import works fine. did about 5000 rows and it took maybe 30 seconds. you map columns during import
- linked records: yes there are relationships between tables. works similar to airtable but the UI for setting them up is slightly different
- views with filters: yes. you can create multiple saved views per table. we have a "active projects" view, "completed" view, "this month" view etc
- formulas: basic formulas work. not as extensive as airtable formulas but covers most common needs (sum, count, date math, conditionals)
biggest difference honestly is the pricing. airtable was getting ridiculous especially when we needed more records per base
this is super helpful thanks. the csv import and views are the big ones for us. going to do a test migration this weekend
made the same switch. one thing worth knowing - if you rely heavily on airtable automations youll need to rebuild those as workflows here. the upside is the workflows are way more powerful than airtable automations
the workflow integration is honestly the killer feature vs airtable. in airtable your automation options are super limited. here you can build genuinely complex logic and connect to any API
how does it handle attachments? we store images and pdfs in airtable cells
following this. airtable pricing has been bothering us too
