Data collection from emails and automated reports in a glance.
Rating: 9 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
In our business, we use the Google Apps for Work Plattform for emails, storage in the cloud, etc. We implemented Azuqua to provide a solution to one of our most important customers. We had the need to retrieve data from emails coming from an automated system that we implemented in a chemical plant. This system generates emails automatically from the process control events. With Azuqua, we can get specific information from the emails and put it in a Google Sheets table to then generate reports with trend charts, etc for the customer. All this data gets refreshed in real time from the emails coming from the process control system.
Pros
- Easy creation of workflows interconnecting multiple could platforms and applications.
- Documentation and videos are very useful for training.
- The support we get for free for the first implementation with Azuqua.
Cons
- I think it requires an easy way to migrate flows created from one user to then move the ownership to another user. It happened to us that one of our engineers left the company and he had the Azuqua account and flows. It required quite some time, cases and telephone calls to do the migration to my account.
Likelihood to Recommend
It is well suited to interconnect data between applications in the cloud only, then it depends on a reliable internet connection. For industrial applications, many of the companies have a lot of restrictions on internet access to the cloud.
