Cool Concept, But I Wish I Knew How to Apply it!
What do you like best about the product?
It really seems like there are a lot of applications for 'Zaps' as they call them. They support a wide variety of popular software's and services.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't know where to begin! Do I even need to use Zapier? With so many current softwares offering integrations and API's, it is difficult to come up with problems that can only be solved by Zapier. It seems like the use case for Zapier is arbitrary, I wish it seemed like a more useful service because it is a cool idea.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automating emails from posts and rows of data. Logging data from posts into spreadsheets.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It seems like Zapier can help in very specific, and sometimes arbitrary scenarios. For example, documenting a post from Salesforce Chatter into Google docs. Ok, that is cool, but do I really need it? Can't I already report on Chatter using Salesforce tools?
Zapier makes the internet work as a team
What do you like best about the product?
Zapier allows to connect different services and apps. An event generated in a app (like a message arriving in Gmail or a post on Facebook) triggers actions in another app (like creating a related task in Google Calendar or saving images in Dropbox. It simplifies some day to day tasks. I really liked how it allows to fine tune each event and corresponding action.
What do you dislike about the product?
Despite the great number of services connected, I felt some absences like Diigo. Also, it would be nice to have a better showcase of popular zaps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work at home and in two different places. Zapier allows me to centralize notifications and information (reviews, posts, references) from different sources and archive/organize them easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is very powerful for business and autonomous professionals.
Zapier great for integrating platforms with no prior connection
What do you like best about the product?
I liked how easy Zaps are to set up. You choose from a list of platforms you'd like to integrate, then choose from a list of triggers that would activate the Zap across the platforms. I never came across a platform that I couldn't find, or a trigger that I couldn't find!
The team was very thorough in building out the app and knew the different platforms they were integrating with very well!

What do you dislike about the product?
If there is one complaint I had about the app, it was that sometimes the connection between platforms or Zaps would break, and we wouldn't be notified until something failed. We were checking Zapier daily to make sure everything was running properly. Things only broke a few times, but it was better to check frequently then to have a trigger fail.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were having problems with lots of manual work. Whenever we got a new lead, we would manually add it to our CRM, then manually add it to our email subscriber list, and have to manually set up autoresponder emails.
After a couple hours of setting up and testing Zapier to make sure everything worked correctly, it was saving us several hours a week. Instead of manually entering and moving around data, Zapier was doing it for us.

Great tool for automation
What do you like best about the product?
Really easy to use with no prior experience or training.
What do you dislike about the product?
I need to use one feature that is not included in the free account. I don't want to upgrade to a paid account for that one feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data feed from a Google Sheet to Jira. This has allowed us to keep the same front end process we had but integrate with our new project management tool, Jira.
Business Class Data Events
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Zapier integrates better and with more services used in the workplace and its competitors. The whole process to setup triggers and events is fairly straightforward and allows for some powerful workflows to be created without needed to know any development. Being able to streamline common tasks that I do daily has greatly helped my productivity.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that there are not (last I checked) any integrations with btt or blink(1). These are really cool, open ended tools that would help notify and interact with certain processes on an individual basis. There are a handful of other integrations that I use IFTTT for and would love to see more of the IFTTT integrations adopted in Zapier - have all my triggers in one place.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are tons of workflows that have been improved, from meeting setups, calendar invites and email management that myself and co-workers use. Being able to get alerts on software builds and such right on my phone is nice, don't have to log into multiple places to get updates. I don't think we have fully realized all of the features this tool had yet - tons to try out and explore. I think in the end, we are trying to trim down excess repetitive tasks to focus on our work at hand.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Explore it, try new things, and even make goofy integrations to get used to the software. There is a lot to automate and you can only truly understand it by trying things!
Great product - makes integrating products easy and simple!
What do you like best about the product?
ability to create interfaces between multiple products - easy to use
What do you dislike about the product?
Would like a trial period for some of the premium products.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
integrate between my email campaign manager and CRM
Recommendations to others considering the product:
worthwhile product. A little confusing to use at first, but useful in integrating 2 different products
Awesome no brainier integrations
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use for connecting apps you use is fool proof. This opens the world of integrations to novices.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it takes a bit of time to understand exactly how the connection works and what you have to configure to make it work. Also, not every app you could imagine is able to be connected. That's a tall order, I know, so in that regard Zapier is really great deposited bit having every single app. It does have a gigantic selection.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We Conner some apps that we use in marketing, like Hubspot calendar and Google sheets. This lets us use an editorial calendar for content by updating as often as I like in Google sheets and seeing these updates reflect in calendar view for Hubspot.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
definitely try this out if you don't know if it will be useful. There is a free version you can try out to see the value of what you want to connect. Also check out all the parts you can connect. There are a lot.
Zapier makes it easy to connect various unconnected products
What do you like best about the product?
Zapier is incredibly easy to use - and it just works. It supports an unbelievably large amount of APIs.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not run into many things that I dislike - I'm actually pretty happy with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our immediate need for use was integrating two disparate systems used by two different project departments - Quickbase, which my team uses, and Wrike, which our marketing team uses.
one of the best services I've used
What do you like best about the product?
the best integration with the services I use in my work environment
What do you dislike about the product?
in some occasions my applications are disconnected from service
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have solved many problems of integration with third-party services that do not communicate with each other
Recommendations to others considering the product:
improve support for integration , applications that suddenly disconnected
So many months saved
What do you like best about the product?
Zapier saved my team so many months of development. Anyone can now create and edit some of our most crucial integrations. Zapier is amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is missing more integrations. Even though it is the market leader, there are many products I would like integration that they currently don't support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
APIs integration. Tasks automation. Products integration is now available easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There is nothing to consider. Vast amount of integrations available for non backend programmers. Amazing.
