Cons

Speed. Screens sometimes take a long time to load, and data lists occasionally load very slowly or not at all, requiring a refresh.

Price, mostly. I got a huge increase of the price.
Can be tricky to set up the first time if you are not familiarized with their tools
It can have bugs randomly, so you will need to re-do the flow to keep it up working, although is not frequent.

Zapier 9.1

Based on 5 answers

Zapier is very user-friendly. They walk you through each step of the zap-building process in an orderly and easy to understand way. Each step of the zap is tested before moving onto the next step. For simple zaps, you can have them up and running within minutes. For more complicated zaps, it may take some experimentation, but Zapier is there to help you troubleshoot.

Jay from Automate.io has been very helpful in fixing a problem (my fault - I forgot to read the guide), but he did so in a way that he clearly understood my automation objectives and could provide relevant and handy guidance.

Zapier 9.1

Based on 11 answers

Before we purchased Zapier, I contacted support and asked them if Zapier could support my intended workflow (this is actually a selection on their support form - awesome). Within 2 hours, I was contacted by a support team member who seemed sure it would work, but granted me premium access for 2 weeks to try it out for myself. Sure enough, it did! Ever since then, support has replied rapidly to any problems I have experienced and answered my questions within a few sentences.

Make sure the person managing it knows APIs and Databases, so they can 'understand' what Automate does and offers. Without such conceptual understanding, Automate is too geeky. WITH such conceptual understanding, Automate is a Church Picnic easy.

Zapier is the biggest name and game in town. I didn't really go shop elsewhere, and once I started using it, there was no going to others for the things that it does. It was simple enough and inexpensive enough that I just don't have a good incentive to try other solutions out there.
