Overall Satisfaction with Zapier
Zapier is being used by the technology department to assist the whole organization. We use Zapier to automate our social media postings to Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and others, and also to automate our RSS feeds and comment feeds to individual Slack channels, and to sync data across our marketing and sales platforms.
- Large library of apps: Zapier supports most major platforms and softwares.
- Zapier has a user-friendly design, especially for beginners.
- Helpful testing features: Zapier allows you to test all automations before going live.
- For active Zaps, their error messaging is not great. It would be helpful to have more data on why a zap has failed.
- When connecting accounts, I wish they would allow you to sign-in separately, instead of using the accounts you are currently signed in on in your browser.
- Accounts will occasionally disconnect for an unknown reason.
- Positive: it has saved us time and labor by automatically posting articles to social media.
- Positive: it has saved us time and labor by automatically syncing data from Mailchimp to Salesforce.
- Positive: Adding filters to zaps allows us to keep the data clean.
Zapier, in my opinion, is more user-friendly than Workato. Their pricing is also much better. I believe Workato's ability to handle complex steps may be superior to Zapier, but not by much. I chose and continue to choose Zapier because of its overall presentation, usability, competitive pricing, and strong support resources.
