Overall Satisfaction with IFTTT

I use IFTTT to help set up starter information for several of my client's blogs. One of the services offered by my business is researching industry news or other relevant news for blog posts. For example, I set up apps at IFTTT that will post set information from online, feeds or internal website use directly as a blog draft. I can use the drafts to decided what information I want to expained upon to create blog post(s).

Pros

  • They are easier to use than other products.
  • Website is straight forward giving you the information you need and not information you don't.
  • You can quickly set it up so data goes directly to cloud spreadsheets.

Cons

  • Email to social media share.
  • Ability to have several users on one account.
  • Create your own app. I wish I could add more custom codes or shortcuts to draw other information automatically.
  • Huge time saver to get the information to go where I need it to.
  • IFTTT creation platform filter codes needs a tutorial.
  • IFTTT platforms need price plan example.
  • IFTTT could use more add ingredients.
  • Compared to other services, IFTTT does a great job of not having a website full of distracting information.
Zapier is always trying to feed me information I don't want, whereas IFTTT has a clean, easy to use website.
Microsoft Flow is time-consuming to set up, IFTTT isn't. In my line of work, time is very important. I need to do the work and get it done.
Automate doesn't offer the setting I need. IFTTT is a closer fit for my client's projects.
I have had a few issues with apps over the years. Compared to other services, ITFFF is the best choice but no service is perfect unless you build it yourself for yourself. ITFFF needs more tutorials on how to create a custom platform, but overall I will recommend it as an easy to use, time-saving service.

One scenario I use is the Spotify app. I have an app set up so that whenever a song is added to one of my playlists, the information from Spotify is set to my blog. Then I add add from there to create the blog post draft to work from. It's a huge time saver.
