Some of my current wishlist items for improvements would be to extend the existing timeout setting or have that setting configurable at a user level. Currently, when designing and testing larger workflows, the sessions timeout and re-authentications are frequently required. Also related to the designing and testing of larger and more complex workflows, navigation is sometimes cumbersome. A means of easily navigating and following the various connectors and workflow links would be a welcomed addition.
The product needs to improve the self-help tools and samples. If there were some more advanced examples on some of the pre-built nodes and especially the data processors and transforming tools, it would make it simpler to reuse some of the information. The QuickMap tools could be better and allow the opportunity to pass into the QuickMap node so that you could have one workflow in the same QuickMap with different settings passed into the mapping section. They need the ability to use hierarchical pathing in the QuickMap node.

I am happy with the product. It has solved our business challenges. It is easy to integrate into multiple sources. We did have to use a data transformation tool which would take months to map and transform data that was being dumped into our secure file transfer. Previously, by the time we finished ingesting the data, it was no longer relevant. This has since changed. Therefore, there are no areas needed for improvement.
The product would be nice if it could provide the deployment features in the lower packages. It's hard to recommend the tool to SMEs as there is no package or product that caters to small businesses. In the two years that we have been using the tools, we have had a fairly good experience. It's difficult to give any feedback regarding this review. They need to look at a more robust type of sandbox environment for training purposes.

Any software one is using can always be improved on. The software itself needs to keep up with the daily demand to service all clients as the need arises. When it comes to features and integrations, Flowgear has a very wide variety of those. The very long list of integrations one is able to leverage and integrate seamlessly is an amazing thing. As the need arises for different integrations, they need to be ready to update the platform. If they do, Flowgear will keep attracting customers in this regard.
Flowgear enables companies of all sizes to increase efficiency and reduce cost by integrating their apps, services, API’s and databases. No coding with 200+ pre-built connectors, reusable workflows and APIs.
I think the UI could be improved.
