Workato needs enhancements in team collaboration, discoverability, API management, and global presence. It faces challenges with customization, UI, complex data transformation, scalability, and licensing transparency. Improvements are necessary in stability, dashboarding, debugging, security, and community resources. Users request expanded connector libraries, a more transparent task-based pricing model, and better B2B integration features. There are also issues with CI/CD pipeline, logging, certificate management, and on-premises application integration. Debugging capabilities and data handling for large volumes require attention.
- "Currently, Workato is a low-code platform without native programming capabilities. I would appreciate having a dedicated programming language for tasks like transformations and functional programming."
- "Integrating on-prem applications is challenging, even though they have an on-prem agent."
- "From a technical standpoint, the security features at the data orchestration level could be more organized, and improvements in certificate management are necessary."
