Airtable

Airtable is a cloud-based collaboration software that aims to improve productivity and organize data. The software is a spreadsheet- database combination that allows users create database, field types, add records, links tables, and collaborate with team members.

Adding data is easy. You can easily type in text, drag in photos, link files from Dropbox, include checkboxes for tasks, and much more. Your whole team can partake in this software by inviting them to collaborate as you would when using Google Sheets. Team members can add comments on the go as well, in addition to editing projects.

If you do not have a template for the database that you require, you can start out with built in templates. Example templates include HR workflow, Task Management Tools, Products Tracker, and many more. All of these come with pre-designed data to give you an idea of how databases work generally and then replace it with your own data.
