I built the same app in Airtable and Appifytext — here’s what I found

Posted by Eugenio on 13 Nov 2025

Dear users,
I have published a new 20-minute deep-dive video that I think you’ll find interesting.

In the video:
I build the same Client Portal application in both Airtable and AppifyText.ai + DaDaBIK.

Then I compare the two experiences — their strengths, limitations, pricing, and flexibility.

Watch the full comparison here:

You’ll see:

• Why Airtable’s cloud-only model can be limiting for companies with data or security constraints


• How pricing grows quickly as you add users, tables, and records


• How DaDaBIK + AppifyText can give you the same simplicity — with full control and affordable costs (10x cheaper)

I’d love your thoughts — especially on the Cloud vs On-premise debate.

Thanks as always for being part of the DaDaBIK community.
