Himanshu B
Sr. Quality Analyst
4.0

Himanshu B.: I'm Himanshu. I work as an analyst. I give this tool, Comindware Tracker, a rating of between four and five. For more reviews, click below. Before Comindware Tracker, we were using Creatio. It wasn't working as good as we expected it to be, because there was so many extensive features in that, that we were not able to integrate it with other tools, but Comindware Tracker solved that issues for us. And it was really, really helpful. There are many reasons I decided to go for this tool. First of all, it was easy to integrate with other Microsoft tools, such as Word, or SharePoint, especially I would say. And it was easy to make presentation or workflow diagrams for the business leaders. It was easy to interpret our ideas in form of graphs and charts, which was not possible as effectively as with the other tools, so that was one of the main reason. It was pretty easy to get started. We were initially getting some go-to training or to-do training from the vendor. And once set up, we were able to manage and customize it a little bit as per our need internally. And I would say it was pretty easy to set up and then go from the beginning. I would recommend this tool highly for anyone, especially a business analyst who is involved into so many meetings and presentation with different stakeholders at their workplace. This is a great tool in terms of representing your idea very effectively. It's easy for others to understand the documents and the diagrams that you would make with this tool. I would highly recommend for anyone at that level of organization.

Allen E
President
5.0

Allen E.: Hey, my name's Allen and I'm the president of a small rehab company and I give Zapier a five. Before using Zapier, I was doing a lot of manual work, just pulling data from one app to another and it depended on my employees being on top of things. Once I got Zapier implemented, it easily connects a lot of my apps together, automates a lot of my workflow. As soon as I enter data in one place, it populates multiple other apps and areas and reduces a lot of the redundancies and inefficiencies ahead of my company. Brought in Zapier because we were having a lot of inefficiencies as far as entering the same data in several different either Google Sheets or CRM or other places and keeping things in sync. When things would change in one software, we had to remember to change in another software and Zapier just simplified all that and automated it so all the data was synced across the apps and services that we use. Using Zapier was very easy to integrate and start using. It's very intuitive. It just asks you for which apps you want to connect, your login info, where the data is stored, what format you want it to be pulled and what data you want it to be inputted into the next app. It takes a couple minutes to set up each of those apps and pretty simple. If you're planning to try Zapier, they have a free trial. It doesn't hurt to just try it. I think you'll love it. I know there are other connectors out there. But Zapier I found to be just very easy, intuitive and they give you a lot, even on their free tier trial. But you're probably going to want to expand past that if you're going to be a heavy user.
