What's your approach to managing projects with Airtable?

I know this might sound pretty broad since everyone works differently, but I’m curious about your workflows for handling projects in Airtable.

I’m coming from tools like Asana and ClickUp, which are built specifically for project management. Airtable obviously wasn’t designed as a PM tool from the ground up, but I keep hearing people say they love using it for projects.

What’s your setup like? Do you mainly work in the regular database view or do you build custom interfaces? I’m trying to figure out how to handle things like:

  • Breaking down tasks into smaller pieces
  • Creating simple to-do lists within tasks
  • Getting non-technical team members to actually use it without getting confused

Would love to hear how you’ve made it work for your team’s project tracking needs.

yup, 100%! keeping it simple is key. our team is really into kanban boards as well. linking tables for subtasks works wonders! i did a lil training so they could get the hang of it. after that, they liked it way better than asana.
