Liven Up Your Presentation
What do you like best about the product?
The unique way you can make a presentation truly embody the subject matter.
What do you dislike about the product?
That you need a pro account to run it offline, but they are in the business to make money so it makes sense.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly used this as part of my sales pitches when brought in to meet with prospective clients.
One of the most customizable bots
What do you like best about the product?
If you're familiar with the Zapier workflow, you're probably aware of the endless amount of actions you can trigger - with the only limitations being those set in place by the application or service Zapier is being integrated with. The slackbot integration is very customizable, with triggers available for most slack actions.
What do you dislike about the product?
With a highly configurable product, configuration complexities can easily arise - complicating the use if you're not as familiar with certain triggers. Unless you have a dedicated integration team to manage the setup, I would recommend hiring someone for the project (depending on scope)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When using Zapier, we were able to configure notices for an entire team when changes to a schedule in Google Sheets were made, allowing for real time schedule management and notifications to allow for more flexible scheduling and staffing depending on volume.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you've got someone who's familiar with IFTTT, they'll understand the general flow of how the product triggers actions. For Zapier Bot (Zapbot) - the trigger automates various slack actions. Highly recommended if you're using Slack for team communication.
Zapier Bot Review
What do you like best about the product?
I like that we can send info straight from one platform into a Slack channel that everyone can see; it eliminates the need to have everyone be able to log into Zapier.
What do you dislike about the product?
This isn't necessarily something that is against the Zapier bot, but if you have a lot of data coming into a channel, it can get annoying to constantly get notifications and it's hard to search to find one specific thing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to notify specific team members of activity within their accounts.
Repetitive processes made easy.
What do you like best about the product?
Customizable. The multi-step zaps. Supports MySQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
Very less access for free users. expensive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For the company, I worked in, we were developing a cloud-based billing application. We had to thus, test a lot of scenarios/flows. Most of the task is redundant. Thus, using Zapier helped us rid these repetitive tasks. It is integrable with a lot of apps, including the google set. The whole process of setting up a flow is easy as well and came be done by a beginner without much difficulty/guidance. It has saved us a lot of time and rid us of redundant work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are a startup and workforce is limited, then, this is of great use as redundant work can be automated thus, we can channel the workforce to do better technical work. As a person who hates even simple redundant tasks, I loved the product and found it to be of great use. Setting up the flow was very easy and it is useable on a wide range of apps. It makes it versatile. The downside though, free users cannot access much of its functions and the lowest paid plan offers less number of zaps. If the company is small, it might find the app expensive.
Get notified about pretty much anything
What do you like best about the product?
If there is an online platform you can't link Zapier bot up to now, that platform is probably pretty old and crappy. It can literally connect to anything worth connecting to and notify you about changes in real time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the alerts you can setup in Slack are not the prettiest things, but I think that's more down to Slack than Zapier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The two main things we use it for are to keep the team up to date on new blog posts (with selected tweets for sharing on our work accounts) and for being notified when our clients have added new products to their inventories by syncing it up to Google Docs spreadsheets.
Connect everyting with everything
What do you like best about the product?
The huge library of apps. I have find all the Apps I use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some times I'd like to have a personal assistant to help me find the best way to connect the apps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Optimize time sharing information is hosted in different applications.
Useful integration for admin tasks
What do you like best about the product?
We use zapier bot to dump cancelation requests into a slack channel so that relevant staff are notified immediately. Keeps us from having to monitor CRQs constantly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Every now and then zapier bot won’t bring through all the relevant information collected in the cancellation sheet into the slack channel.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We created a survey that customers complete to request to cancel their subscription. That survey dumps into a Google sheet and zapier bot collects all entries in that sheet and posts them into our CRQ slack channel. Our support team is immediately notified of the CRQ and get timely/relevant info on how to save the customer.
Integration Made Easy
What do you like best about the product?
Helps connects all the different apps we use for business.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can you rely on it too much and sometimes doesn't always work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Able to take human error out of the equation.
Very much for productivity freaks, moderately easy to use!
What do you like best about the product?
Its been very functional for making regular reminders for people! With more experience using it, I can see myself making even more functional bots for my needs!
What do you dislike about the product?
It has a high learning curve! The only way I was able to implement a functionality was through the help of a knowledgeable co-worker.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a regular lab cleanup schedule in our lab that required sending reminders to people. We have replaced this by just maintaining a google calendar integrated through Zapier, and it is now completely automated.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the tutorials available on the website when first setting up your bots, and take advantage of bots others have built.
The Zapier Bot has so many use cases
What do you like best about the product?
For my purpose, I use the Zapier Bot in order to test our own Zapier integration. But we also use it for tons of other cases where we want notifications within Slack. It was quite easy for our team to create our own bot due to Zapier's help and guidance.
What do you dislike about the product?
The setup and implementation was quite easy, so not much to dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We realized many users like ourselves use Slack for their team communication. Building a Zapier bot was going to be ideal for our business and help out a lot of users that pay for our product.
