3 reasons why Pipedrive is the best Airtable CRM alternative

Activity management

Pipedrive is a sales management tool designed with the salesperson at heart. We know that activities are the stepping stones to closing a deal, and understand the importance of tracking phone calls, meetings, lunches, tasks, deadlines and emails to identify where you can improve your sales approach. Pipedrive allows you to schedule follow-up activities with your contacts, organizations or deals, so you know what’s coming next. You can also set-up activity reminder notifications and custom activities to suit your company’s needs. Airtable is primarily a spreadsheet, so it does not have dedicated sales activity management as a standard feature.

Data and contact features

Unexpected costs and data limits create barriers and negatively affect sales productivity. Salespeople need to be equipped to grow their sales without worrying about restrictions down the line. Airtable has a limited amount of contacts and records across all plans. There is no unlimited option, more data means more cost. Airtable also restricts the amount of storage space across all plans, too. Pipedrive gives you access to custom fields, data storage, pipelines and unlimited contacts regardless of your plan.

Recurring revenue reports and forecasting

Understanding how customer payments that arrive in installments over time affects your revenue projections is crucial. Pipedrive’s comprehensive overview of your predicted revenue gives you control over your targets and shows you the bigger picture. Airtable CRM requires complex scripting blocks to program forecast functionality. With Pipedrive, you have access to this feature and as no formulas are required, you don’t need to worry if your sales data is being calculated incorrectly.
