Zapier

Vorteile

Einfache Einrichtung!
Leicht verständlich und nutzbar in Kombination mit KI Automationen.

Nachteile

Man braucht am Anfang etwas Zeit um rein zu kommen. Aber das ist überall so.

Vorteile

Zapier bietet Ihre Kunden die Einfacheit und Zuverlässigkeit. Der Software enthält doch viele Funktionen und Futures, um die Kunde / Nutzer zu helfen. Außerdem das Kosten ist für alle Nutzer geeignet.

Nachteile

Bei komplezierte Prozesse, benötigt man auf jeden Fall eine gute Einarbeitung, damit man alles finden kann und trotzdem finde ich es top.

Vorteile

- Einfachheit der Bedienung
- Zuverlässigkeit
- Umfang der angeschlossenen Drittanbieter
- Support ist relativ schnell
- Probleme sind im Verlauf sehr schnell zu diagnostizieren.

Nachteile

Könnte im Einstieg günstiger sein, ansonsten kann ich nur sagen "weiter so!"

Vorteile

Mit Zapier lassen sich Vorgänge und Prozesse sehr gut automatisieren.

Nachteile

Gerade in großen Prozessen werden die Programmierungen teilweise unübersichtlich.

Vorteile

Zapier makes automation elegant. Their editor works well and walks me, a non-coder, through the process. And Zapier Tables is a great addition.

Nachteile

Zapier tends to be more expensive than the competition, and it is pricy for us as a nonprofit.

Vorteile

It's incredibly easy and quick to create automations and save myself time with Zapier. Whenever we have tools that can communicate with each other, I try to set it up through Zapier as opposed to another program simply to avoid coding. Troubleshooting is super easy as well where you can fix the automation you made and then re-run the issue.

Nachteile

The test data feature can be annoying. Zapier doesn't have an easy way to send a specific piece of data through an automation for testing, rather, you're required to import whatever the app provides which can sometimes be old data or unusable for what you're doing.
The task automation quotas can also become tight, as each individual task pulls from a monthly usage.

Vorteile

It is easy to integrate other products and create workflows.

Nachteile

It is very expensive, and it could be difficult to create flows with some integrations

Vorteile

Zapier is a powerful and flexible automation tool that makes connecting different apps and tools easy without any coding needed. What I liked most is the user-friendly interface that makes creating “Zaps” (automated workflows) intuitive and quick. It offers a wide range of integrations with popular apps, enabling nearly any automation you can think of. For example, automatically sending data from Google Sheets to Slack saves a lot of time.

Nachteile

One downside to Zapier is the limitation of the free plan, which allows only a few automations before requiring a paid subscription. Additionally, some advanced automation can feel a bit pricey, especially for small businesses. A few advanced features may also require a bit of a learning curve.

Vorteile

Zapier gives me and my clients back countless hours of project management time by making tasks happen instantaneously that would have manually taken hours!

It's easy to use and has great customer support!

Nachteile

It takes time to learn how Zapier works (tips and ways to use more efficiently) so it's hard to learn by trial and error. If you take some time to watch a few tutorials/read a few articles and learn how to use the platform, you will be able to use it much more efficiently!

Some of my toughest challenges were because I didn't understand Zapier terminology!

Vorteile

Being able to do basically anything/any automation with any system

Nachteile

Creating a zap isn't the most user-friendly, plus stuff fails occasionally for no real reason, and they don't notify properly

Vorteile

It allows you (and your team) to make integrations between tools/software without almost any technical knowledge, and fast. Optimizing processes and improving work efficiency

Nachteile

It might have a bit of learning curve until you start knowing the way around the tool, and if you start using different automations, it can become pricey quite easy. A better documentation would be helpful.

Vorteile

So many automations possible, I use it for so many tasks to optimize efficiency across our whole organization

Nachteile

I don't really have any, except that sometimes the software I want to create zaps with isn't available, but that's not really Zapier's fault

Vorteile

I really like that Zapier is very easy to use and I never faced any Problems understanding how to build a Flow. I really like the Free 2 Step Zaps. I used to build with them my automated warehouse control System and it lifted a burden of me.

Nachteile

Firstly I did not liked that i was limited to 2 Step Zaps, but after discovering the whole function i can do by just 2 Steps, I was truly amazed.

Vorteile

very easy to integrate different platforms without coding experience

Nachteile

it wasn't always the cheapest option and connections could break from time to time

Vorteile

We do have an online store and , Zapier is a powerful tool for anyone looking to streamline their workflows and increase productivity through automation. Its extensive integrations, user-friendly interface, and flexible pricing make it accessible to a wide range of users, from individuals to large enterprises. We are a small enterprise and was an excellent cost-benefit ratio.

Nachteile

Although Zapier is user-friendly, creating complex multi-step Zaps with conditional logic can still require a bit of a learning curve. Users might need to spend some time experimenting to fully leverage its capabilities.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Zapier

Zapier is capable of everything! The integrations are very easy to set up

Nachteile

Pricing can get expensive, but it's worth it for the value you get

Vorteile

Zapier is by far one of the easiest automations tools to get started with.

Nachteile

The pricing gets expensive pretty quickly and it makes starting with automation more expensive than it needs to be.

Vorteile

Zapier has been a game changer for our nonprofit organization. It is easy to use with a No Code approach. Within minutes, I was able to set up automated workflows to integrate our donor management CRM, email marketing, AirTable, Google Calendar/ Gmail, and other platforms. This has freed up valuable time and resources allowing us to focus more on our core mission. Zapier's drag-and-drop interface makes it accessible even for those without coding skills and streamlines various aspects of our operations in an incredibly user-friendly way. I am a huge fan!

Nachteile

This is not Zapiers fault, but as I've gotten used to being able to make magic happen between apps, there are other apps I'm not able to integrate with or occasionally apps that do have integrations but not ones powerful enough to do what I want them to. For example, we use Dialpad as a shared phone number, but Dialpad can't forward text messages to email or Slack.

Vorteile

- AI-based i.e. I can describe to AI what I need and it will recommend Zap formulas
- Integration to commonly-used platforms e.g. Hubspot, Google Forms, and Zendesk
- real-time notifications on Gmail
- troubleshooting section whreby it provides a detailed reason why Zap did not work plus recommendations on how to fix it
- community-based support, very agile and very expert on product

Finding the right workflow tool can be an extreme sport but once you set your hands on Zapier you look no further. It is a no code easy to use platform that is well designed for easy navigation. It's implementation and configuration process is effortless because of its flexibility and customization capabilities. We utilized it's free trial plan for deep training for it comes with all the core features which enabled us familiarize with the tool. Kickstarting the creation of Zaps for automation using the highly customizable prebuilt templates that allows us to tailor them into our needs was quick and ideal. Zapier connects all our apps to form a perfect knit for workflow management, communication between and data management between these apps. These saves us the hustle of performing repetitive tasks manually soo we are able to focus serving our clients other that administrative tasks. Zapier keeps on upgrading it's features and everytime they do they unlock new possibilities and ensure we users don't miss on any technology

Nachteile

The upgrades paid plan is a bit costly especially for small businesses

Vorteile

It feels that new native integrations are always being introduced to Zapier and some tools that had to be manually managed are now there from the start.

We used Zapier on some of our trickiest integrations where other tools as Integromat were not covering us enough.

Nachteile

The pricing model is quite expensive and limiting, we have very few users with high capacity requirement, often we ended up paying extra.

Vorteile

-Connects with lots of different softwares and allows me to seamlessly bring data between different platforms
-Can send me an email when the zap is complete
-Let’s me know if there is an error in the process

Nachteile

I honestly have none. I have liked everything with zapier.

Vorteile

Zapier has flexibility in handling data from different sources simultaneously.

Nachteile

Users may need to carefully configure Zaps to handle multiple data sources effectively, and this process can be complex for some users.

Vorteile

I like how easy it is to link to other services and providers we use. Using Zapier we can link Calendly and our CRM up so that those who book through Calendly show in the CRM.

Nachteile

Changing some of the connected services was not easy to begin with. If there were videos it would be a great help.

Vorteile

As someone who works with automations on a daily basis, I find Zapier to be one of the most useful tools if you'd want to integrate different third party APIs. They way it connects with other platforms and tools is smooth. Even a person with limited knowledge with automation will find this tool easy to understand.

Nachteile

None. Haven't had any major hiccups with this tool.

Vorteile

Zapier stands as a beacon of efficiency in the realm of no-code automation, offering a seamless bridge between over 3,000 applications. Its intuitive platform empowers users to create automated workflows, known as Zaps, which can automate tasks across multiple apps with minimal effort. This review aims to highlight the key aspects that make Zapier an indispensable tool for anyone looking to streamline their digital tasks.

Nachteile

It can often be difficult to get prompt customer service

Vorteile

I would say the best features of using Zapier would be The ability to use API, Workflow management that saves time, and third party integrations That have a range of different automations for many people.

Nachteile

I didn't really have anything that I didn't like about zapier. I was a little skeptical When first trying out zapier But it didn't take long for me to Understand how the app works and I have really come to like zapier in general.

Vorteile

A good range of integration options for a range of systems makes zapier a key tool

Nachteile

A web team is needed to manage the system

Vorteile

I love that we are able to automate small tasks that can quickly build up to time-consuming machines. We use Zapier to automate our social media, run reports, manage our to do lists, manage our calendars and so much more!

Nachteile

The setup can get confusing, as there is an integration for just about everything. Finding a way to make it all flow smoothly and correctly can be time consuming, but it’s time that is necessary. One mistake can lead to a process bottleneck.

Vorteile

This tool makes it easier for me to optimize my workflow since I can connect multiple tools from different platforms in a very simple way since Zapier has a complete and native integration of a variety of platforms. It also has an advanced way of optimizing integrations since it has a developer mode in which through code I can be more specific with the tasks I want to automate, so the possibilities are endless since you can configure the actions to my liking.

I can create automations both by data entry as well as by a scheduled date and time that are executed at the time I want, with this I make sure that everything is done correctly, thus being able to have more control over what I want to automate.

I receive updates on the execution process or when a Zap has already been completed, and if something fails in the automation I am also notified. All of this can be customized, thus being able to choose which notifications I want Zapier to send me and how I want it to send me the notifications.

Nachteile

The integration is a bit complicated at first, because it requires going through the steep learning curve that Zapier has, since without the proper knowledge, a bad optimization can be created when creating the automatic tasks that involve doing a series of steps between different connected platforms.

I consider that the cost is a bit higher than normal, this leads to having to make a summary of the zaps to be created in order not to overload the system and waste unnecessary money for each task created.

Some integrations with certain platforms lack functionalities unlike directly connecting the other platforms to each other. This leads to frustration because I use Zapier to create an optimization which sometimes requires me to take extra steps when I do not have a certain functionality that is not directly integrated into Zapier.

Vorteile

Allows you to overcome the challenges of software interaction and automation in a user friendly and simple way. Automations and user interfaces are slick, clean, easy to build, and less problematic due to the easy to follow Zapier code free programming.

Nachteile

The only downfall is that not every piece of software has connectivity.

Vorteile

What I liked most about Zapier was its seamless ability to automate tasks and integrate with a wide range of applications. This streamlined our workflows, saving us significant time and effort. The reliability of Zapier's automation ensured our workflows ran smoothly, and its extensive integrations allowed us to create comprehensive solutions tailored to our business needs. Overall, Zapier greatly improved our workflow efficiency and productivity.

Nachteile

What I liked least about Zapier was its pricing structure, which can become expensive as the number of tasks and integrations increase. While the basic plan is affordable, scaling up can incur additional costs. Occasionally, setting up more complex workflows required more effort and time due to the need to troubleshoot and adjust configurations.

Vorteile

What I liked most about Zapier is its ease of use and how it simplifies automating tasks. It's user-friendly and saves me a lot of time by connecting different apps effortlessly.

Nachteile

While Zapier generally works well, the pricing can get a bit high for some advanced features, especially when you need more zaps or premium integrations.

Vorteile

Zapier is free for a certain volume of tasks each month, after which you can pay to increase capacity. The free amount is still substantial enough for a lot of basic data importing/exporting from different sources. If you are using it to bring things into a single database from various programs/sources, you can configure conditions and have the data reformatted to fit what it needs to look like.

Nachteile

It can take some getting used to, the basic setup may be daunting at first. Once you figure it out things are great, but it may take some searching or experimentation to find the data you're looking for or get the correct process going.

Vorteile

With the use of Zapier,we have been able to automate repetitive tasks,Very simple to implement and enhances efficiency since by organizing processes we can centre on strategy.

Nachteile

The pricing can be slightly higher for those going for the advanced plans.

Vorteile

I like that Zapier has infinite possibilities of automation if you are creative enough.very simple and easy to use even for team members who are not tech savvy.

Nachteile

Nothing so far everything is working just as we've always wanted.

Vorteile

It automates those annoying, time-consuming and repetitive tasks that used to slow me down, freeing me up to focus on my design work.

Nachteile

There's a bit of a learning curve to set up the automations (Zaps), but there are tons of tutorials, and honestly, it's worth the effort for the time I save now.

Vorteile

Zapier is a great idea. I love that you can sync any app. It's also the most popuplar platform of it's kind so it has the most number of apps integrated into it's ecosystem.

Nachteile

Zaps always break or appear to be broken. For example, I have an zap that's been running for months and I get a daily notification of a possible error. When I log in, it appears to be working fine. It takes hours to try to figure out what the issue is. I haven't used other platforms that do the same thing so can't say if that's a problem related to zapier or if it's just an issue with this type of platform.

Vorteile

The seamless integration between different platforms was by far the most important feature. Instead of hiring an employee to manually manage the leads throughout our marketing campaigns, I was able to automate the process saving time and capital.

Nachteile

For certain Zaps, after they were created and initiated, it was hard to edit them. I had to recreate the entire instance. Also, the price increases tremendously the more zaps you use.

Vorteile

it connects all my marketing tools easily. It saves me a lot of time by automating tasks like adding leads to my CRM & sending follow-up emails. The interface is simple, and it makes my work faster and more organized.

Nachteile

Zapier is more expensive. While it’s very helpful, the pricing can be high for small teams or businesses. Also, some advanced workflows require higher plans, which aren’t always affordable.

Vorteile

Easiest non technical way to integrate products and platforms together.

Nachteile

It can become technical if you are looking for a deep integration, however using logic often can help most complete setting up zaps.

Vorteile

I like the way Zapier simplifies automation, connecting your favorite apps seamlessly. It's a time-saving powerhouse for streamlining workflows.

Nachteile

Zapier is the best and has no downfalls.

Vorteile

It's easy to use and has helped save me more time than I can account for. As a single person operations, I don't think I would be able to survive as a business without Zapier.

Nachteile

I wish there more integrations with other tools that I use.

Vorteile

It has a very simple UI which makes it very easy to use.The best part is it doesn't require codes and can be integrated with number of softwares

Nachteile

Zapier needs to work more on their customer support

Vorteile

The absolute ease of automation and integration with no coding experience required. Zapier makes me look like an automation genius

Nachteile

Not exactly a "con" but my advice would be to monitor zap usage.
You do not want to subscribe to a plan with too many or too few zaps.

Although unrun zaps can be processed afterwards so no data is lost!

Vorteile

I like it how easy it is to use, and to configure. how fast you can integrate very different systems.

Nachteile

That it is difficult to track the information that is running through the app.

Vorteile

Zapier is hugely configurable and it is the metaphorical glue that holds so much business infrastructure together. It works great, and it integrates with almost every product you've heard of.

Nachteile

Some of the integrations are very limited, and this really limits the ability of Zapier to do what it does best. For example, some products are only read only, or have triggers but no actions.

Vorteile

Endless possibilities for our non technical teams.I enjoy that it does all the work for me when moving lists,also how Zapier executes our actions at a particular time of our choice is incredible.Finally it has so many options to automatize a lot of things and is extremely easy to learn and use.

Nachteile

Apart from the upgraded plan being costly I have encountered no hitches using this platform.

Vorteile

all good i like everything about zapier

Nachteile

nothing telll all good . good soft ware easy to use

Vorteile

A must-have to connect apps together and build an efficient sales machine

Nachteile

It works for most cases, but I could not make it work to automate replies to comments on my Instagram ads
