Azure Logic Apps vs. IFTTT

1. For simple tasks / moderately difficult tasks (where there are not too many condition checks) 2. We have less time for development, and the Agenda is simple. 3. Avoid Azure Logic Apps when you are unsure about hitting the limits (check latest limitations of Azure Logic Apps in MS docs)

IFTTT is a great tool for people wishing to integrate different productivity tools, but who lack the resources and/or knowledge about programming these connections themselves. Anyone who uses at least email, calendar and social networks on a regular basis can benefit from IFTTT. However, it probably won't be appropriate and/or relevant to casual users, or users inexperienced with the many possible links between smartphones and online apps.

• We use it for an email connector to a function app and as a way to move items into a storage account.
• We use it as a way to preprocess information before it goes into function app or a SharePoint site.

• Their UX and UI for creating recipes is brilliant. So easy to use and very well thought out.
• I love that you can search for recipes other users have created and implement those if you choose to do so. It saved me so much time vs. having to figure certain recipes on my own.
• Their notification and syncing options are spot on. I love how much I can customize what I want to see. Their variety of apps is also phenomenal and I love that they're adding new integrations/apps every week.

• It falls short of alerting capabilities.
• Microsoft Azure should be unclouded with its pricing. We don't always know how much an inclusion will affect the monthly price. So we have to speculate where we are with the price and if we can afford to include another asset.

• It would be nice if there were more business software platforms on IFTTT, but I think that will come with time.
• I wish the site had an area to search pre-built integrations based on category or need.
• There really aren't too many cons to using IFTTT, the service gets better all the time and continues to grow almost daily.

There is no better alternative and although Integromat is new and the GUI is slick, they make you pay per push and IFTTT does not. The rest of the competition make you pay per integration or are just not as seamless in usage or have the depth of catalogue. If you use Zapier for instance, it is because they have an integration you have to use, not because Zapier does a better job.

I found them easy to use and adapt to different scenarios, from Azure management to link processes between REST APIs. Together with Function Apps, they're probably the most useful resource type for Azure. Today, I use them in production, and that's a key component: stable, secure, easy to manage, and maintain.

For the most part, IFTTT is great but it does have its limitations. You may only do one thing at a time. If you want branching logic it can be cumbersome and clunky. This it where something like Microsoft Flow does better. For simplicity, nothing can beat IFTTT for how easy it is to set up and use right out of the box

Azure Logic Apps are backed by Azure and Microsoft. There is a wealth of information on the internet about both of these platforms. In addition to this Microsoft has a huge bush to using this platform and have offered many solutions and support options to the user. The only drawback is that it is a fairly new platform so the 3rd party information tends to be lacking.

I have had a few issues with apps over the years. Compared to other services, ITFFF is the best choice but no service is perfect unless you build it yourself for yourself. ITFFF needs more tutorials on how to create a custom platform, but overall I will recommend it as an easy to use, time-saving service.

Just try it for your own social media platforms. Then imagine how much money it can save/make.

When we proposed products for central integration, we were also introduced to software like Pabbly - which was in its early stages of company growth. The main reason why we picked Azure Logic apps over the other software is that it is manufactured by the renowned company Microsoft and we had nothing to worry about our data security. Also, Logic apps offered a great deal when it came to pricing and it was also so much easier to negotiate the plans and prices with the customer care representatives at Azure Logic Apps!

IFTTT is free and easy to use, where Zapier has a freemium business model. We actually use both platforms for different things. I prefer Zapier for more complicated connections, where IFTTT allows us to have more connections without the added fee. Additionally, IFTTT allows us to do more unique and one-off automations.

• Moving to Serverless Computing obviously makes the organization get rid of dependent Infra.
• ROI can be seen immediately as the required infra can be decommissioned after a successful quarter run.
• Being deployed as a single entity or single app on Azure Logic Apps, Organizations need to be more careful with controls applied to meet compliance and security posture.

• IFTTT was a free program for us and has worked wonders.
• The time that it saves us when it posts across platforms is great because we only have to post one picture and caption and it goes out to all of our social media accounts.
• IFTTT has definitely helped us to communicate more and in better ways.
