"The solution is an affordable one."
"It’s stable and straightforward."
"The product's initial setup phase was simple."
"This solution allows us to integrate data from across all client departments, for effective reporting via a single dashboard."
"The most valuable feature is the map visuals that help us connect to the geo-specialized data which is more advanced than other solutions."
"The ability to connect to many different data sources is one of the key features. The other would then be the different ways in which that data can be visualized."
"We used it pretty heavily in gathering data, which goes to our VPs. They are able to base their next revenue planning based on this metric. So, it has been invaluable."
"We can connect Zapier with Zoho CRM for lead generation. I like the tool's drag and drop feature."
"We find it effortless to set up. We really don't have to do anything other than finding the application in the Zapier catalog. And as long as the application has been re-integrated into Zapier, they're able to then just provide the connection details and hook it up."
"There are a few valuable features, like the stability that it comes with and also the number of features that it offers. I've used other services like Pabbly, but they don't offer similar numbers of applications that Zapier has or allows to integrate with – it's maximum."
"Zapier is user friendly and makes it easy to integrate different tools. It has a drag and drop functionality which makes it easy to connect environments."
"The most valuable feature of Zapier is it saves me time doing repetitive tasks."
"Zapier's interface, for me, is the solution's greatest value proposition. It is designed and developed for people who don't have a clue about what they're trying to do. It has a very user-friendly interface."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is very intuitive and has a very flat learning curve."
"What's most valuable in Zapier is its simplicity, seamlessness, and smooth plug-in, so you won't need to build code for every action. I'm not a developer, but I can use Zapier."
"We would like to see some improvement in the default properties of the solution, so that there is less need for us to spend our time coding."
"Compared to competitors, the UI is quite dated."
"Personalising Spotfire, as a whole, is painful and is something that could be made easier."
"The data compression has room for improvement."
"We would like an easier way to get the product to the cloud. Right now, we have the on-premise version, and we would like to find a way to make it easier to migrate it over to the cloud."
"The handling and consumption of realtime data could be improved."
"The design of the UI could be improved."
"Print capability and trigger-based events."
"The pricing of the solution is quite expensive."
"There is room for improvement in the support. They are not responsive, and they don't take much time to get resolved."
"I would like to see them improve the Quickbase integration. Currently, it only allows triggering actions when records are added, but it would be more useful if we could also trigger actions when records are modified or deleted."
"System-to-system is fine, but when it comes to system-to-user, where Zapier is helping to communicate to a user, that's a one-way communication. If that user has to perform some action on that notification, the action isn't handled by Zapier. So there's no way to orchestrate that and it's very cumbersome."
"With Zapier, improvements are required in the areas of concerns like bugs, ease of use, and documentation."
"My biggest concern with Zapier would be their pricing strategy."
"The solution does not work properly when we apply filters and we get errors."
"Being able to share Zaps and organize them with teammates would allow sharing and refining scenarios and even combining steps that require different people's credentials."
