Great comparison! SmartSuite looks to be the up and coming. AirTable focus is specifically towards larger organizations at this time and going forward.
Dan, you are a man with much knowledge. Will Air or Smart ever create a field that collects phone's location when creating a record? For example, you go on a trip, and you create new entries in DB....... months later, you can't remember the name of the point of interest ...but you do remember the location ....... you can go to Mapview and see the different records pinned to the map. This would be such an impactful field. There must be a reason why neither platform has such a feature
That would be great! Have you looked into Glide at all? They seem to invest the most into mobile functionality out of the "internal tools" builders. GPS, camera, audio recording, barcode scanning to name a few
@@danleeman see… This is why I’m glad I posted… No, I’m not familiar with glide. I will look into it. And maybe that’s the reason (not focusing on mobile) I know that is with smart they are just mainly focus on their desktop application right now… The phone app is a back burner issue.. you may know this, but Evernote used to have this feature,like eight years ago, it was called Atlas and it was fantastic. When I travel to different cities couldn’t remember the peoples name or topic/purpose of meeting. I could just search in map view for pinned notes. Evernote said they got rid of it because it wasn’t cost-effective. I guess Licensing the maps for the app is costly. But both Airtable and smart have a map view so that cost is already sunk. Anyhow, next time you have their ear, please drop the suggestion.
Great video!, right on time! Quick question. I'm in the beginnings of starting an automation agency helping small businesses (1-5 office employees) automate workflows, streamline documents and build chatbots. In 2023, which platform should invest my time into? Thanks!
Thank You, this was extremely helpful for me!

What about backup/restore? An essential feature IMHO 🙂
I watched all 4 quarters and never saw the final score. Very diplomatic but I think Smartsuite won by a head. Valuable content!
Thanks, Alan!
Great video, I didn't recognize the difference in Formulas until now so I learned something new as usual.

Airtable has market share right now, but I think that the 1-5 employee range is best suited to SmartSuite given Airtable's shift to enterprise.
Great comparison Dan 👏
Very useful👌, Thanks a lot..
Could you please do the same comparison between Airtable vs. Coda
Do you use Coda? if so, do you recommend it?
Hey, great question. I definitely will do it in the future but need to dig in a bit deeper. Used Coda in a corporate setting and enjoyed it, fwiw
Fantastic review Dan!
Very well done!
Excellent review!
