A low-performing integration tool
We use it as an in-house back-type integration tool. It allows us to have different integrations between different systems It does not perform well. It needs more reusable components that are unlimited in time. Furthermore, it relies on the files systems and does not create components, so it is…

Great automation and strong workflows useful for integration
The initial setup is quite straightforward. When connecting Workato with your on-premises system, you have to install the Workato agent on your network. It was not complex but a long process to configure and settle. Workato has not gone live for us yet, so only the developers are currently using it. But in terms of users, we will have close to 250 and maybe 30 additional direct users. We are seeing a lot of different use cases where we can add new recipes because we started small, and there are many different areas where we can implement Workato for automation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The stability of the solution is OK."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"It's easy to understand, makes flows and is efficient."
"Moreover, AI automation simplifies integration development by understanding requirements from prompts and creating the necessary automation."
"Their automation and workflows are very strong, and you can build the workflows very easily and quickly."
"I absolutely think it is worth the money to have Workato as a tool."
"I definitely recommend Workato to others; it is the best product in our technology stack, allowing us to integrate legacy systems and address diverse requirements."
"Workato reduces total development time as it generates code seamlessly and integrates with SQL databases or APIs through configuration."
 

Cons

"It is not performing well."
"One area for improvement is the CI/CD pipeline, which lacks a version control system similar to GitHub for easier deployment."
"I have observed some minor stability issues with Workato, particularly related to connectors failing occasionally and delays in report sending."
"The management dashboard in the solution is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement."
"Based on my experience, it would be really beneficial if the unit tests were improved because when you change a recipe significantly, they do not work anymore, and you have to remake them all."
"The only minor drawback would be if there was a UI at the front of it, for apps and for a portal as well, it would make it really easy. It would be really useful if there were more apps capabilities."
"Workato could be improved by adding a proper debugging feature. Currently, there's no way to set breakpoints to stop the process and debug an error as you can in other tools like webMethods."
"The data flow and debugging processes need improvement, especially for tracing issues."
"Integrating on-prem applications is challenging, even though they have an on-prem agent."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Speaking about price, I would say that it's market-related. Also, there are costs in addition to the standard license fees since different add-ons depend on what you require."
"On a scale of one to ten, the pricing is around a six. We have a consumption model and the pricing is higher. If you are using any kind of ML-based approach, machine learning, or some advanced analytics, you may have to pay more."
"Workato is an expensive solution."
