Reviews of Zapier
A highly usable and reliable platform
Comments: We use Zapier to connect internal tools like SharePoint with outward-facing tools like Ticket Tailor.
Pros:
Zapier makes automation elegant. Their editor works well and walks me, a non-coder, through the process. And Zapier Tables is a great addition.
Cons:
Zapier tends to be more expensive than the competition, and it is pricy for us as a nonprofit.
The Perfect Middle man for everything!
Comments: Great, I only use it for basic functions but I am starting to use it for more complex ones as i have started using it more. Easy to navigate and set up
Pros:
What is not to like, Zapier basically is the middle man to automate and connect anything with anything. All done in your sleep once you have set Zaps up work.
Cons:
Not super simple to start at first but once you get the hang of it, you can flow through Zaps, the help section is also great and it gives you suggestions to fix any issues you have and work arounds, a really good feature.
Good, but too expensive
Comments: They have a long list of integrations, but the price is just way too high
Pros:
It is easy to integrate other products and create workflows.
Cons:
It is very expensive, and it could be difficult to create flows with some integrations
Alternatives Considered:
Has given me back so much time spent on PM!!!
Comments: Zapier has helped me sort and systemize data, increase efficiency of workflows, and given me so much time back! I love Zapier and it's great for when you need multiple softwares to work together that do not already have custom integrations! One of my greatest projects I used Zapier for was automating a room rental booking process!
Pros:
Zapier gives me and my clients back countless hours of project management time by making tasks happen instantaneously that would have manually taken hours! It's easy to use and has great customer support!
Cons:
It takes time to learn how Zapier works (tips and ways to use more efficiently) so it's hard to learn by trial and error. If you take some time to watch a few tutorials/read a few articles and learn how to use the platform, you will be able to use it much more efficiently! Some of my toughest challenges were because I didn't understand Zapier terminology!

Zapier is a must have

Changing some of the connected services was not easy to begin with. If there were videos it would be a great help.

Basic zaps dont get into the nitty gritty of heavy dat lifting and we sometimes have to use other alternative.

None. Haven't had any major hiccups with this tool.
