Flowgear vs. IFTTT

Flowgear has been exceptionally well suited to automate workflows allowing my product to interface with other products without the need for my team to develop these integration points. The ability to run workflows against multiple environments, in a secure manner, has facilitated rapid development of key client requirements and aided my team in delivering a quality solution.

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.

• Easy node code front end
• Excellent Customer Service
• Adding new pre-built integrations on a regular basis

• 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.

• Learning should be easy for even a beginner
• Users may find the platform a bit overwhelming if they do not understand it

• 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.

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

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.

Training material is excellent with in depth videos and material that are readily available and easy to understand. Materials are upgraded when new features are out. First time users do not find it difficult to follow and understand all modules. Tests are easily completed due to this. Overall training was great

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

Flowgear has solved our problem in getting our integration and mapping out faster. Easily being able to change workflows and great with facilitating a production ready product through its CI\CD functionalities. Taking the products through various stages of development ensures that we are always able to test extensively first and then get our integration working in a production ready environment.

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.

• increased productivity
• efficiency
• and reduced time and costs

• 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.
