Fantastic AirTable/Smartsuite alternative w/POWER
Overall--great. It runs as smooth as AirTable, is a better value than that or SmartSuite, and can do so much! Love it.
- As someone who has used AirTable and SmartSuite, I found Stackby to have just about everything those two services had and more--for a better price
- Getting started was as easy as connecting AirTable and bringing all my tables over
- Then I just had to clean a few things up and I was ready to go
- When I had a support issue, I heard back with a solution within about 12 hours
- Not bad
- Stackby doesn't have quite as modern of an interface as SmartSuite, but it makes up for that with an abundance of features at a lower price--especially for guests (they're free
- )

SmartSuite charges for allowing guests to view and interact with your tables. Stackby lets you have unlimited guests free.
Why they chose it
"Lower price and more features. Plus, the ability to bring in social channels for analytics."

Amazing Apps with Great Feature
It's good for a small team, we can use the free plan. As I'm only a freelancer with less than 10 people in the team, we don't need to use higher plan at the moment.
A great alternative to similar apps because it offers a free plan that is good enough for a freelancer with small team like me
We need a stable internet connection, and sometimes it changes the input, especially with a Number type of data

too expensive for me. I don't want to pay that much because it's not worth it at the moment.

An Essential Tool for Our Business
Verified reviewer
The interactions between columns and between stacks makes this a really wonderful hybrid tool
- I had really wanted to use this to replace our existing budget in Google Sheets but I tried and failed several times to get the cells to work with the same kind of formulas we rely on to do things like calculate percentages etc and it was a bit clunky
- Also the only place we could get totals was at the bottom of the stack which doesn't''t translate well to a an actually readable working budget
Why they chose it
"Generally this is an invaluable tool. I've used airtable and Infinity and for the value and constant commitment to dynamically adapting their toolset, Stackby has been essential to track our growing list of clients and where they are in our onboarding process. Their templates are great starters and the support is prompt and efficient.there are still some growing pains but those are far outshone by the sheer utility of this software."

One of the best purchases we've made
We purchased Stackby over a year ago as an alternative to Airtable. There were a couple of initial things we didn't understand, but they were very patient with us and explained them — and also made changes so that it was easier for us to use. We use it to power a large monthly magazine and it's made it an absolute breeze.
- Ease of use, good automations, great support
- Nothing that hasn't been addressed and fixed

Price. We save thousands every year for the comparable feature set.

Great Platform for Team Collaboration
So far so good and the team are finding this a great space to project manage our resource.
- Easy navigation and content creation
- Allows my team to collaborate efficiently
- Haven't used it long enough to find any problems
Switched From
Costly platform that does not allow for free trialling for a substantial amount of time.

By far one of the the best of breed productivity tools to enter the market for a long time
Stackby has been super responsive and most importantly helpful and effective. When you get the customer experience right across the entire landscape the rest falls into place, and so far that's what these guys/gals have done.
- Whether you want to organise data, create systems, keep track of your sales, your marketing, your business assets, and the use cases go on and on and on, this tool can help you achieve that
- Also with the new Zapier (Beta) integration it opens up possibilities to bring data to and from the rest of your technology ecosystem
- The two main use cases I've started using with Stackby are as a Digital Asset Management System (for my business and I've set up one of my clients in the same way
- they purchased multiple codes also) and as a Deal Management System for financial transactions
- Given I'm in the PE/VC space I was pleasantly surprised that the system had relevant templates for this industry already out of the box, in addition to loads of other (what look like) very useful templates
- I've poked around several and love how the one's I've checked out have been put together
- It feels like whoever created them knows the requirements of the respective industries
- Is it all fireworks and champagne
- No
- Not yet
- There are a few functional things I've encountered that need improvement
- The good news about this though is the company is super responsive and get's to work fast to solve stuff

I've been an Airtable power user for a long time and I've lost count of the number of people I've told about that product. This product is going to blow Airtable out of the water. Just a gut feeling I have, so I intend to move all of my Airtables to Stackby. It's not because of the economics. I'd gladly continue paying for a service if I had faith in the ability to continue to deliver value for the money. My interactions with the other company however have been less than average.

Solid alternative to other options.
At first I didn't know I needed Stackby. It has evolved and is a solid tool with the ability to reach all companies. If you are a company and you have a little imagination, you can make your own ERP and keep all the control of the organization. As well as making advanced calculations.
- I love it
- Stackby has become one of my daily tools as Excell used to be
- It's great
- In the past it gave some problems with Firefox
- I finally got used to using it with Chrome
- It had some stability issues, but they are virtually unnoticeable
- Overall I like it a lot
- I miss being able to cross-reference data from other tables, as well as phase view
Switched From
I met them because of a good offer. But little by little they have won me over. I will continue with them.
Why they chose it
"I have evaluated several options. I liked that they have translated into my language. Spanish."

Heading the right way (and I like it already)
Keeping track of sales leads and talent pipelines
- Very easy to set up and use VERY shallow learning curve - less technical people are not as apprehensive about using it as say Excel/Access
- The form view means adding new rows can be done with zero technical effort
- A large number of templates that can be customised
- The ability to develop and save customised filtered views of data is good
- The layout is easy to read compared to spreadsheet software like Sheets
- Rows of data can be expanded and viewed sequentially like a CRM where reminders, checklists, notes and internal conversations can be entered
Moving data around between tables is a bit frustrating but fixing this is on the roadmap
Switched From
Far better data visibility The ability to view data in several layouts Ease of use Far superior sharing options Much lower technical knowhow user threshold

Service - Support - Ease of use
I have currently been using Stackby for approaching one year now. Having used other, similar items and having to wait for an email response or a chat system where there is never anyone there, Stackby is the total opposite. Not being very savvy with this type of software, I have been a pain in their proverbial, with loads of questions on how to do things or add things. Everytime, without fail, they have assisted me, in person, to resolve my issues. Whether it be via chat, email or screen sharing. I have not found any other software of this type, that offers the same as Stackby. Continue with the great work...
- I can keep everything in one place - It's easy to use - The support and after sales is amazing
- Nothing is too big of an issue for them
- I didn't know about it sooner
- Nothing I dislike
