"The most valuable feature is the logging capability."

"The maintenance of data services is the solution's most valuable feature."

"The most valuable feature of SAP Data Services is the integration with data sources."
"The user interface is ok."
"The basic functionality is quite good as is the basic logic and data information."
"There are a few valuable features, like the stability that it comes with and also the number of features that it offers. I've used other services like Pabbly, but they don't offer similar numbers of applications that Zapier has or allows to integrate with – it's maximum."
"Webhooks are the most valuable feature of Zapier."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is very intuitive and has a very flat learning curve."
"We can connect Zapier with Zoho CRM for lead generation. I like the tool's drag and drop feature."
"Zapier is a really good tool for connecting multiple different platforms and data sources. For example, with Quickbase, I can easily integrate data from other sources like AWS or task-tracking platforms such as ClickUp or Asana."
"The product's most valuable feature is automation."
"The product's initial setup phase was very easy."
"Zapier's interface, for me, is the solution's greatest value proposition. It is designed and developed for people who don't have a clue about what they're trying to do. It has a very user-friendly interface."
"At the integration level, there could be certain set of improvement to connect to various other systems."
"There needs to be multi-language support, however, my understanding is they are working on multi-language now."
"It's an ETL that is very good with relational databases but not as good with files and semi-structured files."
"I want some more business intelligence applications. People need to know more and more about data, including the transformation rules, etc. Informatica is a better product for data cataloging. SAP should update the data catalog."
"The migration of the solution between different environments is quite complex."
"The interface is not quite user-friendly and is in need of improvement."
"They could make it easier to work with web services."
"With SAP Data Services, the problem arises when I try to connect to Azure Databricks."
"Zapier needs to improve in the same way most RPA solutions should, such as Robocorp, Make, or UiPath. They are not good at helping you find the connections that you need for the problem that you have. For example, if need something on Instagram. I'm going to have to do research for hours to be able to find the components or the app, which is going to do what I need it to do. It makes it difficult to use the system when you don't know what to use."
"Zapier could be a little faster, but that might not be possible. I would encourage Zapier to make more API endpoints for each application"
"The pricing of the solution is quite expensive."
"My biggest concern with Zapier would be their pricing strategy."
"At the moment, they allow a limited number of apps. I look forward to getting more apps for each package."
"Some apps are not available yet. For instance, a connection with Joomla! would be great. In general, all the most-used apps are available, but I bumped into Joomla! with a client."
"The user interface for Zapier could be improved. It also takes some time to sync the data between different environments."
"Zapier needs more YouTube or video tutorials or more training for people. That would help a lot. In particular, Zapier should have documentation for every connector. Its documentation needs to be more detailed and visual."
