We performed a comparison between Microsoft Azure Logic Apps and Workato based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It's very easy to use, and it's blazing fast. The best thing about Logic Apps is actually its ability to create a solution in a matter of hours. It doesn't need any kind of provisioning, and you don't need any kind of hardware. You can create very small elements like these Logic Apps, and you can build a whole solution from those very simple and small elements. I also like that they are completely incorporated with your existing active directory. You can use user groups directly from the active directory inside Azure and access it from the Logic Apps. You don't need to do anything special, and you just have access. You can just check if the user is, for example, allowed to do some action. Normally it would take you some additional steps and some additional calls to check it. You have to come back to the active directory to make this possible. In Logic Apps, you just have it, and you can use it. I think that there's this concept of logging and recall to the Logic App. It shows you every single step, every single product, and the result it's returning to the next step. It also has an amazing debugging feature. You can rerun some calls and see if, after a correction of the Logic App, for example, you get the correct results. So, it's almost like it's alive. It's like you make a change, poof it, and it's in production, and it's working. The speed of the composition of the problem and creating a real solution for it is extremely fast with this solution. It's extremely fast in creation."
"I am impressed with the tool's UI and analytics."
"The product has efficient connectors."
"It's easy to use, and it's stable."
"It's quite similar to Power Optima, but I use it mainly to integrate with databases, and it works well for that purpose."
"The tool’s biggest benefit is the access we have to other Azure products."
"Connectors are very useful for streamlining data integration tasks."
"We can write external features and transfer the data using JPIMs securely which has been most valuable."
"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."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It's easy to understand, makes flows and is efficient."
"Workato is low code, intuitive, and easy to use."
"It is easier to use than other technical open-source technologies."

"The most valuable features are easy integration, quick tab to develop, quick tab to market, and interactive integration platform."
"It would be helpful if the vendor could provide more data connectors."
"The stability of Microsoft Azure Logic Apps is stable. However, we have had some issues in the past. They do resolve issues that arise from new releases."
"The standard logic app could be simplified. Thats what we would like to see in the next release."
"Standard documents are fine, but in certain situations, when facing specific errors or issues, partners or consumers expect customized solutions rather than just links to existing documents."
"Microsoft Azure Logic Apps could have more customization options for connectors."
"The product needs improvement in getting direct access to the code and versioning."
"The support I have received is mixed because in some cases they are accurate, and in others, it was me doing the groundwork and giving feedback for the agent to finally tell me there is an issue in their larger services."
"The only thing is, sometimes, when we need a specific connector, it requires an enterprise or paid version. If it were possible to provide the most commonly used connectors for pulling data from different sources free of cost, that would be really nice."
"I would like to see the dashboarding and reporting processes improved."
"It is tedious to make a tailor-fit function."
"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."
"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."
"From the deployment point of view, our customers encounter platform downtime where it does not serve the actual request on the systems."
"The management dashboard in the solution is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement."
"A limitation is that their cloud presence is only in North America and Europe."
