Visual workflows have accelerated our agent POC while better UI and observability still need work
My personal experience with Dify's UI is that it is not my favorite, as it can be improved a little bit, and sometimes the UI feels a little bit buggy. I am not sure if that is because it was a self-hosted version. The documentation can also be improved a little bit more. I think not a lot of people are using Dify currently, so that is why the documentation is not very great. If the documentation was improved, that would also be a really good thing. Currently, Dify could improve by offering better observability like other platforms. We currently use OpenAI Agents SDK, which requires you to build everything by code, but the observability is really good. It has OpenAI Traces, and you can basically trace everything for a conversation. If Dify had that kind of tracing functionality, that would be great.

Offers low-code/no-code concept makes development much easier and faster and offers good community support as the development team actively answers questions on the community every day
There are very minor things, like the feature called "action chains," that could use a bit of enhancement. But the team is perfect; they're working on it. An action chain is a sequence of actions triggered by a button or an event. It executes code in order, from top to bottom. For example, it could call a code, call a REST service, and then insert data into a database. It needs enhancement because it can be a bit complex for fresh grads or new developers to understand. It would be better if it was made more readable. That's the main point. But if you have experience, you'll understand it easily. One more thing I want to add about Visual Builder: up until two years ago, it supported native mobile development. That's not available anymore. They replaced native mobile development with progressive web apps, and most customers are complaining about that. We need native mobile development back – the ability to put apps on stores like Google Play or the App Store. That feature is not available right now, and they deprecated it starting in 2024. It's very important. Otherwise, clients go with Flutter or other mobile development tools. It would be good for Oracle to regain that capability. We need the native mobile development feature back.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Considering the pricing, I would rate Dify a seven on a scale from one to ten, but for usability, use case, and feasibility, I would give it a ten, as it surpasses both Zapier and N8N."
"Using Dify has positively impacted our organization because we were able to cut down on some development time and do a lot of testing in a very small time period."
"I have been using Dify as a powerful tool for AI automation for more than 1.5 years, and I appreciate its model-agnostic approach that allows easily swapping AI models like OpenAI and Anthropic."
"With the AI-powered data analysis we built, we achieve cost savings since we do not need to hire a person specialized in data analysis."
"Dify has positively impacted the organization because accuracy has been improved, and the time and complexity in flows that were manual are now automated, from HR automation to ERP level transactions, including subscription management in the SaaS application, monitoring, and analytics."
"Using Dify has positively impacted our organization because we were able to cut down on some development time and do a lot of testing in a very small time period."
"Since I have used Dify personally, I have noticed ways it has made my workflow and research easier, saving me time and helping me find answers more quickly."
"The most valuable feature was the visual drag and drop on the components."
"You can avoid costly React developers that are required for building advanced UI."
"The action chains are really helpful, and the trigger event, along with those action chains, has been very helpful."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable feature was the visual drag and drop on the components."
"The tool is very easy to use."
"VBS is another tool that allows users to create enterprise applications without needing to store their projects in traditional databases like SQL."
"You don't need a dedicated IDE to develop. You can work from any browser, which is very convenient. And, with the cloud concept, your code is stored in the cloud, so you can modify it from anywhere, at any time."
 

Cons

"One of the main concerns that we had is that it might not be very scalable because we are hosting it in a self-hosted environment, and we have to configure the architecture and everything."
"The only improvement would be if Dify provided an SMTP server that could be connected to automate Dify workflow management, as that would be a great option."
"One of the main concerns that we had is that it might not be very scalable because we are hosting it in a self-hosted environment, and we have to configure the architecture and everything."
"Dify is missing a few features which could be improved by polishing the website and creating a more attractive experience with motion graphics."
"Dify does not appear to handle larger workloads well regarding its scalability."
"Dify can be improved by adding features such as an end loop or exit loop capability, similar to options available in N8N and Zapier, to make workflow completion easier without needing to select additional outputs and understand complex steps, which can be time-consuming."
"If you're doing some, for example, extremely responsive applications for the web, it's not as good."
"The tool has minor bugs."
"There are some bugs in VBCS."
"I would improve the license structure as, for some companies, it may seem a little bit expensive, depending on what they're doing."
"My honest opinion is: do not use this solution — there are plenty of free options out there that will do the trick."
"The feature called "action chains" could use a bit of enhancement."
"The initial setup of Oracle VBCS can be challenging for those unfamiliar with DBS."
"There was an attempt to enable front-end development, it did what it intended to do, but the side effects were too bad."
