IFTTT - Do you need it or do you need it?
Overall Satisfaction with IFTTT
IFTTT is the most fantastic app that lots of our clients (and I myself) use it for practically hundreds of use cases that require almost next to no level of configuration and it's free! I will however mention couple of ways our client have maximised their productivity with IFTTT
1. To natively post contents on multiple social channels
2. To back up every post ever made on any social channel
3. To keep track of worked hours
4. Automated reminders and alerts
5. Add mailing campaigns to Google calendar and so on
6. Keep track of mentions and hashtag about you or your company on twitter!

Pros
- Automatically and natively posting content on multiple social channels
- Taking backup of content to your preferred cloud services
- Anything and everything that relies on automated action based on multiple triggers over hundreds of channels
Cons
- More enterprise applications could be added (but this is not IFTTT issue, it's the enterprise applications extending their support)
- There are no disadvantages really. It had tons of triggers and actions and it's free!
- It automates so many different tasks which in turn increases your productivity
- It is absolutely free to use so there is no cost negative cost factor ( the service itself, not the channels )
- microsoft flow and Zapier
While other paid services might give your a little extra features and possibly a connectivity with enterprise application, it's nearly impossible to beat IFTTT with the cost factor, ease of use, hundreds of channels and a great community of users.
