Kevin: Hi, this is Kevin. I'm a product owner and I give Microsoft Visual Studios a four out of five, and for more reviews like this, please click below. I use Microsoft Visual Studio with Python Code. Microsoft Visual Studios allows multiple different softwares to run within it, and I use it for Python, which is a programming language that we use for spreadsheets and other analytical tools. What I like about Microsoft Visual Studios is it's a Microsoft product, so it's included with our other Microsoft Suites. It has very similar menus across the top in the ribbon, and it's fairly reliable, and I feel secure using it. What I don't like about Microsoft Visual Studios is because it's a one-size-fits-many, it's not tailored to the software that we use it with currently, so your mileage may vary.

Onome D
Artist-Facilitator
4.0

Onome D.: Hello, my name is Onome. I am an artist and facilitator. I am a solopreneur and I give Airtable four out of five stars. Prior to Airtable, I was using Google Drive as my content library, and I find Airtable to be better suited to the job. Well, it just so happened that I was able to receive a template for doing my content management system that made it easier for me to figure out how to organize my content in a fairly straightforward way. It was a bit of a learning curve, even with the template because I mean, there's so many options and so many customizations. So I'd say overall it's a pretty steep learning curve. In my case, having a template made a bit of an easier entry point for me. But even with that entry point, it was a little difficult to understand how to add new columns and customize the database. So I'd say it's a little bit of challenge. I would say that though Airtable has worked just fine for my purposes as a solopreneur, it's better suited to a team of people just because it has so many potential moving parts. And the way in which it is customizable, I think it would be better suited to a team of people, like a group of archivists or a group of social media content managers, that kind of thing. Those teams would be the ones that would best be served by a software like Airtable.
