Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The product has efficient connectors.""I would rate my experience with the initial setup a nine out of ten, with ten being easy to set up.""The design is highly beneficial. It functions as a sandbox environment.""Logic Apps helped reduce complexity or development time. For example, if we get documents in the form of images, we can use Logic Apps to extract information from those images. This simplifies our efforts compared to originally using Microsoft APIs to do the same task.""I am impressed with the tool's UI and analytics.""We can write external features and transfer the data using JPIMs securely which has been most valuable.""The solution's most valuable feature is the no-code/low-code feature.""I like the ability within Logic Apps to design the workbooks through the portal with minimal code."

"Their automation and workflows are very strong, and you can build the workflows very easily and quickly.""It's easy to understand, makes flows and is efficient.""It is easier to use than other technical open-source technologies.""It is very easy to use. It takes complex workloads away, and it provides very smooth integration. It has got a lot of out-of-the-box connectors. It has got a lot of out-of-the-box APIs, which makes it really easy to integrate with applications for different use cases, whether it is in finance, HR, or customer operations. It is by far our favorite integration product.""The most valuable features are easy integration, quick tab to develop, quick tab to market, and interactive integration platform.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""Workato is low code, intuitive, and easy to use."

Cons
"The visual tool that is used to build integration is quite old.""The documentation could be better. I think that's the only thing that was causing a normal level of problems. In terms of the documentation, it came from Cosmos DB and an additional product from Microsoft Azure.""I find the current interface useful, but I could see how others would want the UI bits that are used for creating Logic Apps to be simplified.""The main issue is performance, especially when dealing with large amounts of data. Performance-wise, that's the only thing Microsoft should focus on.""It's for a limited kind of application or short Apps. And, not for the complex applications.""Microsoft Azure Logic Apps can improve by continually updating the connectors to make them better.""A room for improvement in Microsoft Azure Logic Apps is that it's expensive. Every step is going to cost you money, so if someone is not doing the steps carefully, at the end of the day, it will cost a lot of money. Each time you execute a step, the cost will depend on how much you use Microsoft Azure Logic Apps, and how many workflow steps you have. Each time a step needs to be executed, there'll be a cost added to your bill. If the developer isn't careful with how he uses the solution, this can blow up the cost. What I'd like to see in the next release of Microsoft Azure Logic Apps is for the cost and security to be better.""The solution lacks sufficient connectors."

More Microsoft Azure Logic Apps Cons →

"I would like to see the dashboarding and reporting processes improved.""The management dashboard in the solution is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement.""It is tedious to make a tailor-fit function.""From the deployment point of view, our customers encounter platform downtime where it does not serve the actual request on the systems.""The only minor drawback would be if there was a UI at the front of it, for apps and for a portal as well, it would make it really easy. It would be really useful if there were more apps capabilities.""A limitation is that their cloud presence is only in North America and Europe.""Workato's Extract, transform, and load (ETL) and extract, load, and transform (ELT) are not very strong and could be improved for very complex transformations."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The cost of the solution could be cheaper."
  • "If we are comparing to other public cloud vendors, such as Amazon or Google Cloud platform, I wouldn't say that it's expensive. However, when we're comparing between a host such as GoDaddy or Digital Ocean, then it's a bit on the expensive side."
  • "It's very cheap, but it comes with pluses and minuses. The positive thing is that it's very cheap, but on the other hand, it's extremely hard to tell how much it will cost. At the start of the project, it's almost impossible to tell how many times you will be calling some kind of Logic App function. You cannot state how much of the internet transfer you will use or how much data your will use."
  • "The price of Microsoft Azure Logic Apps is inexpensive."
  • "Microsoft Azure Logic Apps could be costly if a user isn't careful. The costs associated with the solution could still be improved."
  • "The product is not cheap. I would rate the product's pricing a five out of ten."
  • "The pricing is not expensive."
  • "The pricing is okay. It's not highly priced. It's in the medium range."

  • "On a scale of one to ten, the pricing is around a six. We have a consumption model and the pricing is higher. If you are using any kind of ML-based approach, machine learning, or some advanced analytics, you may have to pay more."
  • "Speaking about price, I would say that it's market-related. Also, there are costs in addition to the standard license fees since different add-ons depend on what you require."
  • "Workato is an expensive solution."
