Filemaker had a real opportunity to become an easy to use web based database SaaS but they just couldn't make the transition to web in a meaningful way I feel. I know so many casual business users misuse spreadsheets (Excel, Sheets, or even LibreOffice) as a database, there's a need for row integrity that Airtable fills nicely.

We had a fundraiser using Airtable Pivot function to record and display lap times, completed laps, and average lap time in real time on site and on the web. Who needs IBM, when you have Airtable?
