Azure Logic Apps - Powerful workflow tool

Rating: 8 out of 10

Incentivized

October 15, 2024

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Azure Logic Apps to automate the workflows mainly to extract the data from on-prem databases. My use case is to extract the customer related data stored in the database from the on-prem through gateway and load the data to SharePoint site for further processing. Implemented quite a lot of workflows targeting the similar extraction process.

Pros

SharePoint connection
Connect to SQL DB
Connect to Database from on-prem through gateway

Cons

Better user interface to develop workflows
Allow more than 500 workflow actions
All runtime retention more than default 90 days

Likelihood to Recommend

Azure Logic Apps is well suited for workflow automations, integration of on-prem and online systems, file transfer process, connection well with SharePoint apps. This is not well suited when to integrate the custom code written in different programming languages, I had issues to integrate complex code function to utilize within Azure Logic Apps workflow.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Logic apps are straightforward to use and are great for managing resources with Management REST APIs. The free tier is also a great way to perform tests and development. Otherwise, it would be very expensive. App services for Logic Apps are still excessively expensive.

Pros

EASY TO USE UI.
Stable platform.
Does not requires manual upgrades.

Cons

App Services plan that's extremely costful.
Lack of documentation.
Lack of python integration.
Better sdk/api

Likelihood to Recommend

Essentially, it's infrastructure automation and Azure management automation. It would be great to have templates or, better yet, non-rate or request limited use of Azure Management APIs. Also, it would be great to have templates for Office365 and other non-Microsoft services management for multi-cloud management like GCP and AWS. Azure would be the head of that.

Azure Logic Apps Overall Review

Rating: 8 out of 10

August 7, 2024

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it to execute custom logic in C# to provide response to our service consumers with the search query. It simplifies the workflow of the function by solving particular business requirement, without having everything in a single service instance. Also the logic apps are automatically and highly scalable, which makes them extremely useful during the heavy load scenarios on the offered services.

Pros

Automatic Scaling
Serverless Compute
No Code Tools
Faster Integrations

Cons

Overall Pricing
Pricing for Scalability
Complex Workflow Configuration

Likelihood to Recommend

This serves well if the scenarios are covered based on your business requirements. Pricing and workflow complexity and such configurations are the things to be considered while determining the use of this, and also the cloud and tech stack being currently used for the business also affects the decision for selecting Azure Logic Apps majorly.

Azure Logic Apps Helps with Proof of Concepts and Steamlines Automation

June 19, 2024

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Azure Logic Apps for a variety of purposes, but it really shows it's strength in connecting other services from within the Azure ecosystem. For example, connecting Azure Service Bus so that when a message is received, it posts the message's body to an Azure Function. Logic Apps also can help connect services outside of Azure, mainly used as a way to easily access data from third-party APIs to retrieve data and then store it, message it, or post it to another application.

Pros

Receiving messages and handling them from Azure Service Bus
Posting data from Service Bus or third-party APIs to Azure Functions
Reading RSS feeds at regular intervals
Scheduling tasks to occur

Cons

To perform logic within the UI can be a bit tedious. It's very easy to click on something which can erase an ongoing mathematic operation.
I wish it provided better auto saving as drafts while working on existing logic apps
It would be nice if you could store templated steps that can be reused in other Logic Apps

Likelihood to Recommend

If you're within the Azure ecosystem, then using Logic Apps at some point becomes a no brainer when it comes to efficiency. Sure, some functionality such as receiving messages from Service Bus to be consumed by a Function can be written out, but that often requires more effort and you have to worry about maintenance. That said, for complex scenarios, writing a large Logic App can become just as tedious to maintain.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Azure and CRM for our computing solutions under our domain! It works every time, there are days that it seems slow performing, but we have never experienced any serious downtime. We're able to provide faster support and response to our business partners within our organization.

Pros

Easy to set up and login.
Easy end to end integration of all the apps and data.

Cons

User interface or designer to configure the actions should be improved.
Business processes are a bit difficult to visualize using this app.

Likelihood to Recommend

We're able to automate the business processes and implement workflows and provide easy integration with various tools internally. It helps design the workflows and allows for the implementation of business logic, and provides numerous connectors to connect different enterprise applications to be integrated easily into the workflow. It's well suited for all areas; it all depends on the business needs and where we can get the most of the features that is available based on our current subscription plan.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have deployed Microsoft Azure Logic Apps to create real-time workflows. It has numerous connectors that have greatly simplified the way we connect with highly scalable systems. Microsoft Azure has quickened the processes of developing B2B integration solutions for a better flow of data between systems. Blob storage provides an effective hosting environment and automatically directs and processes requests across cloud and onsite systems.

Pros

It has an extensive amount of connectors.
SFTP for sharing files ensures efficient sharing of files to emails which stimulates logic apps.
Several options for languages.

Cons

It falls short of alerting capabilities.
Microsoft Azure should be unclouded with its pricing. We don't always know how much an inclusion will affect the monthly price. So we have to speculate where we are with the price and if we can afford to include another asset.

Likelihood to Recommend

Microsoft Azure ensures seamless integrations and connectivity both in and out of the Microsoft ecosystem. It has multiple integrations and many options for different languages. Its reliability is part of what makes it a great choice for large-scale organizations. However, Microsoft Azure could use some transparency about its pricing and the cost of additional resources to it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

To move a package from one resource group to another, we utilized Azure Logic Apps. It served as an excellent means of connecting a wide range of cloud-based services. You can start with the templated solutions and then learn more about what you can accomplish. In order to keep track of various indicators, we connected these activities with a variety of software solutions.

Pros

Plenty of options for integrating with other systems
Affordability
Simple management and integration of the system

Cons

Configuring a workflow might be a difficult task
It's a lot of work to do sophisticated custom work with it
There's room for improvement in the user interface

Likelihood to Recommend

Because all you have to do is enter the data, pre-built connections for various protocols make installation a snap. On Azure Docs, the documentation is rather good, and the staff who maintains it is fast to answer any questions you may have. We've also been able to cut down on the amount of time we spend dealing with email process issues. It's simple to teach individuals how to utilize logic applications.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Simply put I use Azure Logic currently to my help organize and streamline all the tools and resources I use on a daily basis. The problem the product addresses is with them easily and efficiently being able to create workflows in order to get tasks done. These tasks usually require different apps, services, and programs and I’m able to streamline all of that with this app.

Pros

Creating and preprint workflows.
Executing workflows in a simple way.
Bring different applications and services together.

Cons

More training and help guides.
Simplifying the implementation process.
Multiple user integration.

Likelihood to Recommend

Where this app would be best suited is for B2B businesses that are using multiple services, apps, and tools to create solutions for their clients. For a bigger company that is more disorganized due to all the moving pieces, this application will help streamline a lot of the different pieces a big organization is juggling to provide a solution to their clients.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I work as an admin support manager in a premium education management institution that is fully B2C. One of the main concerns our company had previously was to automate tasks with a central integration software without having to spend dollars on different software that did a certain job. But in the given time we did not have much expertise around integration software models or examples. With active search alongside the help of a few external consultants, we proposed a few software products to fit our needs, and fortunately, Microsoft Azure Logic Apps was one of them that we went for.

Pros

Create advanced and complex workflows
Easy deployment
Ability to host maps and schemas locally

Cons

More advanced action options can be added to the workflow templates.
More advanced workflow templates could be added.
Troubleshooting process could be improved.

Likelihood to Recommend

Microsoft Azure Logic Apps was a perfect solution for us to integrate the apps and products we used in our business to create automated workflows which were also complex and very advanced. This was a very new feature for us, and also it reduced our software costs massively and also saved us a lot of time. With the crisis, we were in back then Azure turned out to be the best cost-friendly solution because we only had to pay for what we used!

Azure Logic Apps made our lives easier at my company. Automating and scheduling tasks was a hassle... After Azure's implementation, everything became much easier! I recommend it!

Pros

Scheduling Tasks
Integration w/ other Systems
Taks Automation

Cons

Pricing

Likelihood to Recommend

At my company, we used to do a lot of repetitive work. This meant we could make more mistakes, which meant lost time (and money). With Azure Logic Apps our tasks are happening smoothly, automatically, and totally integrated to our other systems. We don't even have to import and export files, that's amazing. Price is expensive, I know. But you should consider.
