What do you like best about IFTTT?

It's the most comprehensive way to automate a wide variety of tasks that involves no coding and let's you integrate nearly endless choices of platforms, software and systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IFTTT?

It's certainly not the most user friendly system. There is definitely a big learning curve acting as barrier to entry with IFTTT. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering IFTTT:

Take the time to learn it properly, especially for those tasks most important to simplifying your life. If you look deeply enough into it, it's likely it can do something, integrate something or automate something you never even considered as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IFTTT solving and how is that benefiting you?

This comprehensive system lets me automate tasks, allowing me to spend my time less on busy work and monitoring and more on getting things done and living my life. As a self-employed freelancer, it's easy to let work take over my life. One of the most useful ways that I use IFTTT is by using it to control how and when I receive notifications, so I can be sure that the most important ones get to me right away, while the rest can wait until I'm ready to deal with them. This way I don't have to worry about missing out on great job opportunities or important notices, while also not being continually bombarded with every email that comes my way, disrupting my workflow and my downtime.

IFTTT is very simple to use, even if you have a limited coding background. It's interface is user-friendly and clearly labeled.

What do you like best about IFTTT?

I will keep it short and simple. If you are willing to invest your money in automation, then this is the easiest, safest, and most hassle-free option outthere. I have used Zapier and various other services. There is nothing that matches the simplicity of the IFTTT Applets (formerly recipes)

You can easily find high-quality applets for a wide range of use cases with ease. There well-made UI is ideal for modifying any existing applet according to your needs. Obviously, as a fun loving person, I often make my own applets which are equally easy to create.

IFTTT strikes a right balance between ease-of-use for normal users and the freedom for a pro user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IFTTT?

As much as I love IFTTT, I keep going to other services. The reason being my hate for there pricing plans. They have a free plan, but a lot has been restricted to paid pricing plans, Usually, companies provide a free basic version of services with paid advanced features.

However, in case of IFTTT, basic apps like Pinterest have been completely restricted to paid plans. Ofcourse, things like 2+ app integrations, condionals, variables should come at a price, but having even basic functionality restricted is a deal breaker for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IFTTT solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am performing home automation, and little bit of office level automation. Some quality of life improvements as well. For example, I am taking backup of my call logs automatically by integrating with Google Sheets. Other use cases include muting my phone at certain geogrpahical locations using GPS.

What do you like best about IFTTT?

It automates many tasks when and how I need them done for me so that I do not have to. It integrates with many of the platforms I use with what is called an "applet". Having the tasks done for me is like having an assistant. I can even have it call me if a certain thing happens with an automated voice that is programmable with what not to say. Easy to use as it takes you through step-by-step via a setup wizard for each applet that you create. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IFTTT?

I believe that Zapier is their main competitor. While IFTTT is a whole bunch cheaper, they are missing a few that I wish they had (e.g. Shopify/Microsoft). While they are really competitive in price, they need to become more competitive with integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IFTTT solving and how is that benefiting you?

- It is integrated with my Google Calendar. I have it call me when certain types of events are scheduled.

- If I receive an order from a freelancer website, then it immediately calls me and creates both a calendar entry and a task entry.

- The images that get posted to my social media profiles are automatically backed up on Google Drive or Dropbox. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IFTTT?

IFTTT is a tool that allows users to automate their little yet time-consuming tasks with the greatest of ease. You can set it to perform a certain task by creating a dependency for it. For example, it will automatically create an entry in a spreadsheet and publish a post on Facebook if you complete a Fitbit goal, it will share a file in the office chatgroup from your dropbox and send you an email notification for the same if an employee asks for it in the chatgroup. This is just a simple idea it contains much more than this. IFTTT also offers a free trial period for unlimited time which is restricted to up to 5 free applets. It is very simple to use and does not require even 1% of programming experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IFTTT?

IFTTT is capable to do almost every task by itself yet it is restricted to only those actions which do not require an intelligent quotient. If one wants to create an applet that requires multiple dependencies, can not be created with IFTTT as it is limited to performing the actions that require just one dependency. IFTTT is collaborating with several other service providers to integrate their service but a lot more popular ones are yet to be onboarded. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IFTTT solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am saving a lot of my time by getting some of my actions/tasks done by IFTTT. In my professional life, it is helping me and my team by automating a lot of actions that depend on a certain action that take place. For example, It creates a Facebook Post, a tweet on Twitter, and creates an Instagram story on our client pages as soon as we post blog articles on our clients' WordPress websites. On a personal level, it also helps me turn on my cabin's air conditioner and light as soon as the morning alarm rings in my smartwatch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IFTTT?

Ability to execute specific code and create integration between different services without needing personal hardware.

Ability to execute complex bespoke commands in real-time with a button tap on a smartphone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IFTTT?

IFTTT may be limited by API access of services.

Shortcuts (by Apple), Dropbox, Google Drive, Evernote, and Feedly provide different levels of access.

Access to service may be behind a paywall (on the services end). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IFTTT solving and how is that benefiting you?

Different digital services require integration.

Integrating, migrating, and automating tasks across various services is vital for repetitive tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IFTTT?

I enjoy being able to cross connect just about any service out there to create automation workflows across just about any service out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IFTTT?

I wish there was a more developer-centric interface available for general advanced users to be able to create custom formulas and actions beyond what has already been provided. It doesn't happen often, but I sometimes find a service lacks an obvious function but there is no way to manually add them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IFTTT solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to move notifications between services in a predictable and programmatic automated manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
