Hello Gareth thank you for sharing this possibility - It would be interesting if this also works to sync bases between paid and non paid plans. Do you know if this works?

[@GarethPronovost]

Hi, yes that shouldn't be a problem. It won't matter if the Airtable plan is free or paid.

[@giovannicara219]

Thank you Gareth. One question. I would like to create two-way sync between Airtable bases, placed in different workspaces, and a airtable base acting as data collector. Does it count as a single sync? Thanks in advance

[@GarethPronovost]

I believe Airtable sync only works between bases in the same workspace, so I'm not sure that this would be possible

Is Airtable a good all around CRM for Real estate agents? Already bought your tutorial course but deciding if I should go all in with learning everything Airtable for CRM. Have a background in Excel but Airtable seems like it is up and coming

[@GarethPronovost]

Yes absolutely. I know many real estate agents using this!

[@TheRemyRomano]

This is cool, but I wonder how long it will be before we can do this natively in Airtable. I have seen posts from Airtable in various places that indicate this is already possible. I think these posts are erroneous, but it signals that this is something that may happen soon.

[@GarethPronovost]

Yes, it's in beta currently with select enterprise clients. I suspect that when it rolls out, it may only be granted to enterprise licenses, so I think this option may be a more economical choice for pro plan users...🤔

What are the pros and cons of this tool vs the airtable 2way sync?

[@GarethPronovost]

Depends on your Airtable plan tier. Previously we didn't have 2-way sync from Airtable and this was the only option. Now the higher Airtable plans do offer 2way sync and it's pretty slick. Whalesync is still desirable if you need to sync to another data source, though - like Pipedrive, Stripe, Hubspot, etc.

[@agoogleuser6937]

Can we sync a filtered table (to just sync some and not all records) instead of all records?

[@GarethPronovost]

Yes indeed!

[@deuts]

This is so expensive I'd rather just do with a workaround.

[@GarethPronovost]

Would love to hear any workaround you have. I know of an automation work around, but it costs about as much as this with all the automation it uses.

[@XAE_A_Xii]

agree, too expensive, 1000 records is nothing
