Users suggest enhancing Workato's team collaboration and flexibility. They seek improved discoverability, API management, EDI features, and cloud presence beyond North America and Europe. Respondents cite challenges with customizations, complex data transformations, and debugging. They desire better integration with on-prem applications, enhanced security, and a clearer licensing model. Improvements are needed in Workato’s scalability, task-based pricing, CI/CD pipeline, programming capabilities, and the library of community recipes and connectors. Debugging, dashboarding, and unit tests require refinements.
- "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."
- "Though I find the task-based usage in Workato challenging, requiring careful workflow design."
- "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."
