Innovative, works well with GraphQL, and can connect to any type of data source

It has the ability to connect to virtually any type of data source, whether it's a database, an API, or an old-school XML-based data source. Support for multiple data sources and formats is a fantastic feature. I believe it is adequate, and I would say that it is a very innovative solution.

Great automation and strong workflows useful for integration

The initial setup is quite straightforward. When connecting Workato with your on-premises system, you have to install the Workato agent on your network. It was not complex but a long process to configure and settle. Workato has not gone live for us yet, so only the developers are currently using it. But in terms of users, we will have close to 250 and maybe 30 additional direct users. We are seeing a lot of different use cases where we can add new recipes because we started small, and there are many different areas where we can implement Workato for automation.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Support for multiple data sources and formats is a fantastic feature."

"Their automation and workflows are very strong, and you can build the workflows very easily and quickly."

"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."

"Workato is low code, intuitive, and easy to use."

"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."

"It's easy to understand, makes flows and is efficient."

"It is easier to use than other technical open-source technologies."

Cons

"Moving to other clouds is impossible without significantly rearchitecting your applications."

"A limitation is that their cloud presence is only in North America and Europe."

"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."

"The management dashboard in the solution is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement."

"From the deployment point of view, our customers encounter platform downtime where it does not serve the actual request on the systems."

"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."

"I would like to see the dashboarding and reporting processes improved."

"It is tedious to make a tailor-fit function."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing fees are paid on a monthly basis, and it is a pay-as-you-go model."

"Workato is an expensive solution."

"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."

"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."
