Pros
"It is very easy to use. It takes complex workloads away, and it provides very smooth integration. It has got a lot of out-of-the-box connectors. It has got a lot of out-of-the-box APIs, which makes it really easy to integrate with applications for different use cases, whether it is in finance, HR, or customer operations. It is by far our favorite integration product.""Workato is low code, intuitive, and easy to use.""It's easy to understand, makes flows and is efficient.""Their automation and workflows are very strong, and you can build the workflows very easily and quickly.""It is easier to use than other technical open-source technologies.""The most valuable features are easy integration, quick tab to develop, quick tab to market, and interactive integration platform.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."

More Workato Pros →

"The drag-and-drop features for connectors are very valuable.""The customer service executives are very responsive.""The solution basically conforms to our standards.""The solution's technical support is very knowledgeable.""The solution has two main parts: integration and transformation. It's very user-friendly and easy to understand for everyone.""It was mostly easy to set up the product.""The stability is excellent.""It's a consolidated product. It works and it does its job pretty well."

Cons
"Workato's Extract, transform, and load (ETL) and extract, load, and transform (ELT) are not very strong and could be improved for very complex transformations.""It is tedious to make a tailor-fit function.""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.""A limitation is that their cloud presence is only in North America and Europe.""I would like to see the dashboarding and reporting processes improved.""From the deployment point of view, our customers encounter platform downtime where it does not serve the actual request on the systems.""The management dashboard in the solution is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement."

More Workato Cons →

"WSO2 libraries are not mature enough. For example, if you want to integrate with Kafka using its Kafka library, it often has many bugs.""In my opinion, the administration model and interface, of Carbon, are lacking in terms of its features and user experience.""The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required.""If I have to buy software, then it becomes expensive for me.""The administration side is complex and could use significant improvements to enhance the solution's functionality.""There are a lot of security settings that when you apply you have to re-apply again every time you modify a setting. It is something that really needs to be enhanced.""They should introduce better pricing for small companies.""I would like to see them bring back a feature, from earlier versions, that was very useful in debugging and finding issues."
