Pros and Cons
- I honestly cannot think of three things it does well without custom code.
- Forms need to be more intuitive, too much JavaScript is necessary.

July 19, 2020
Pros and Cons
- Browser based WYSIWYG form designer.
- Lot of actions to suit all needs requirement to model any process.
- Ability to design a complex step as a user-defined action so that it can be used by normal users across the organization.
- Seamless workflow/form design and publish experience.
- For complex form designs, using custom javascript or CSS is not so straight forward. The advanced responsive form is not so flexible for complex requirement needs.
- Large workflows are not so stable and have performance impact. To get around this, rather than one big workflow, multiple smaller workflows to be created which is not so user friendly while looking at the workflow history.

- Pricing
- Ease of maintenance

- Training materials and classes are amazing.
- We are still unable to get document generation working. It is most likely our configuration, but we can't figure out what specifically to fix.
- The new Responsive Designer is still missing a lot that's included in the Responsive Designer.
- I wish there was versioning on workflows.
- I'd LOVE to be able to test a workflow or section of it without publishing it yet.
June 17, 2020
Pros and Cons
- Multi-level merge fields that can get information from several child records.
- Keeps the formatting of letters from the Word doc.
- Lots of automation possibilities.

- Can be temperamental, a slight change can break everything.
