Recommendations to others considering the product:
Read and refer to Workato documentation that is quite extensive and helpful
Very intuitive and powerful automation platform.
What do you like best about the product?
Workato is incredibly easy to use & powerful, with a pricing model that enables you to incrementally prove value before making a large purchasing decision. I'm not a software engineer (I'm predominantly a business stakeholder), but I'm able to easily integrate almost any application that has the required APIs. Workato's pre-built actions are very intuitive to use, but you can also use custom actions for any actions they dont currently support.
Workato's customer support is incredible, and has really enabled me to quickly extract a ton of value out of the platform without getting stuck.

What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally I encounter bugs, which requires I use workarounds. For example, the Greenhouse actions dont support the concept of min & max values (for currency ranges), which meant that I need to use the HTTP connector and cannot use the pre-built actions for updating a Greenhouse Job. However, whenever I hit one of these bugs the Workato support team is incredibly responsive and helpful in suggesting alternative approaches for achieving my goal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Integrating Workday & Greenhouse, Netsuite with bank SFTP sites, Coupa with Jira
A fast evolving highly flexible iPaaS platform
What do you like best about the product?
Easily incorporates workflows and triggers that fit with your business processes.
Very flexible and easily allows SQL to be used inside the platform.

Easy to use IPaaS with great integrators
What do you like best about the product?
There are a ton of integrators that make it easy to build out integrations to a range of products.
It was also easy for me, who has next to no coding skills to write out integrations between products.
The errors were easy to understand and find solutions to.

What do you dislike about the product?

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I come from a process-driven background and have never had much experience with coding, but the simple and intuitive way of being able to build out recipes along with a ton of out-of-the-box integrators made it an easy process.
The support I had from Workato during the process was invaluable to me, as the consultant walked me through parts I was unsure of and made a positive impact on the project.

What do you dislike about the product?
Prebuilt connectors might not have the actions that we needed but that is okay as alternatives can be explored.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Looking to minimise mundane manual tasks that has to be performed daily. With the integrated solution that Workato had provided, the resources can now be diverted to perform more important tasks and time at work are better used.
User friendly tool that is capable to perform very advanced actions
What do you like best about the product?
interface and simplicity, very user-friendly
What do you dislike about the product?
It does sometimes has a few glitches here and there, but experts are very quick to respond and help you
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Integrating various systems, making sure that the end user only need to go to one systems to be able to see data from other apps
Most powerful tool to expand work automation
What do you like best about the product?
Creating flow (in Workato term, it called recipe) is very easy for every type of user. We can integrate not only cloud systems but also on-premise systems. And extensibility is also good, even if they don't provide connector, we can develop the connector to integrate legacy systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unfortunately, currently Workato provides only English UI. We wish they support our native language (Japanese) UI for their recipe editor and Workbot which is a chat bot provided by them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our company (and many companies in Japan) has still a lot of old legacy systems and introduces, so we tried to introduce RPA to automate tasks that use such kind of systems.
But, we could automate each task but we could not automate whole business flow. And some systems were replaced to cloud system, but it was hard to automate them with RPAs since there screens are frequetnly changed.
In addition, business flow contains human dudgement. To solve this probrem, by using workato we integrated business chat (Microsoft Teams) , cloud systems and RPA to collabrate human and bots.
As a result of this integration, we could reduce working time and inprove throughput of this business.

At last, a user-friendly iPaaS solution

- A true multi-tenant environment for handling different clients/environments seamlessly
- Super-simple to render on-premise apps or databases as a cloud endpoint

What do you dislike about the product?
Like all good things, there are some areas with challenges. In our view debugging could be easier, but over time you can learn to live with this in its present form. Thankfully, documentation is good and technical assistance from the vendor is easy.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have already achieved a lot with Workato. The main points to call out include:
- Simply connecting on-premise platforms into Cloud workflows
- Building endpoints in a short-space of time for more obscure platforms
- Built sophisticated recipes drawing on Callable Recipes to help modularise and simplify complex challenges
- Reducing the time and cost taken to deliver solutions to our client that are both reliable and maintainable. Not a coder in sight
- Overall, reduced the cost and improved the results for our clients across a multitude of platforms and environments.
