If you have processes that are now managed and controlled using a spreadsheet, Zapier will give you a lot more control over what is happening and will help you increase productivity by eliminating simple steps such as sending emails and sharing information with your colleagues. It frees time for very transactional activities.

  • Being able to turn off one leg of a Zap without having to delete it or turn the whole Zap off
  • Not all fields populate when using certain aspects of Salesforce, but that could be an SF issue

Zapier
The interface is very user-friendly, and there are also many tools to help a brand-new user get started. For example, you can put your Zap idea into the AI bot, and it will basically build a shell of your Zap to get started on. The format for each step within a Zap is also very helpful (set up the connection/app, set up the fields/details, then test).

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.

We actually utilize both Integromat and Zapier at our company, for all the reasons detailed in this review. Though Zapier is excellent for simple client integrations, we often run into internal use cases that require complexity that Zapier cannot provide. Specifically working with API calls (not just webhooks), complex multi-step integrations with Routing/parsing/etc, and large volume integrations. Integromat is perfect for these use cases, but doesn’t provide the simplicity and account scalability that Zapier offers.

ConnectPlaza Screenshots

Screenshot of Constructor is one of a the four products of ConnectPlaza® Studio to create and distribute 'Non standard' Connectivity' with simple mouse-click configuration.

The constructor (development environment) is designed to simplify integration and help you to build all the functionality you need, from a drag-and-drop standpoint. Essentially everyone can use Constructor, since there is no coding required to use our standard building blocks and our Out-of-the-Box components.

The constructor is created in such a way that everyone, even if they have no experience in integration, can connect their data! ConnectPlaza® allows all types of integration combinations: Cloud, SaaS or On-Premise applications. We offer your workforce a complete integration lifecycle from construction to deployment.Screenshot of Deploy is where you perform a one-click-deployment of all your flows to your runtime environment. We employ unique technology that allows our customers to deploy their integration solution anywhere they could ever want and control their deployment directly from the cloud. The ConnectPlaza® agent is flexible and lightweight and can be installed virtually anywhere.

Through a special and secure connection these Agents can be controlled remotely and deployment is managed from the cloud, avoiding the need for direct access to hosting platforms and performing technical operations to make things work correctly. So once you build something, you can deploy it anywhere.Screenshot of Would you like to review and trace all messages and data transactions in one single view?

ConnectPlaza Analyze is a unique and unparalleled analysis tool, which gives you extremely detailed insight in critical business data transactions.

It allows you to deep dive into the individual messages and inspect their contents and properties in a way you’ve never seen before. 

And, perhaps most importantly, none of your data will be stored anywhere in the iPaaS Cloud, making our product and your environment GDPR compliant.Screenshot of With Control we deliver technical monitoring capabilities for your complete ConnectPlaza® run-time environment. Pro-active support is possible by checking metrics and notifications of the Agent. You can set thresholds on queue sizes, number of messages per component, etc. When installed a default configuration based on your environment is created. You can modify these settings, like alerting, message notification, error handling, events, latency, etc. in the Control environment in ConnectPlaza® Studio.Screenshot of A little preview of our Producer componentsScreenshot of A little preview of our Services components
