Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use flow gear to build processes to simplify our work and increase productivity and efficiency. Time has been a key factor in resolving problems and flow gear provides quick solutions to complex tasks. Training is provided when needed with easy to learn and follow guides that makes learning fun.

Pros

efficiency
increase productivity
cut costs

Cons

Easier way of opening support requests
On screen pop ups
One click videos

Likelihood to Recommend

creating workflows and simplifying processes. Providing quick solutions when time is a factor. Learning videos are easy and quick to follow if you are not knowledge in the software and want quick solutions.

Less appropriate to new users wanting to resolve or build solutions without using guides.

Overall it's pretty good.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The product has enabled my team to design automation workflows and integrate with various systems seamlessly saving my team extensive development time. Without Flowgear, my team would have spent additional time designing and developing solutions trying to interface with various systems and networks in a secure manner that Flowgear manages natively.

Pros

Workflow version control and deployment through development, UAT and Production environments.
Numerous prebuilt connectors available for quick workflow design and development.
Enables reliable workflow automation with detailed logging aiding in troubleshooting.
Allows for multiple environment workflows

Cons

Enabling the Always On functionality in multiple environments instead of only the production environment.
Easier means of navigating larger or complex workflows.
Increasing the existing timeout functionality or allowing for this to be configured at a user level.

Likelihood to Recommend

Flowgear has been exceptionally well suited to automate workflows allowing my product to interface with other products without the need for my team to develop these integration points. The ability to run workflows against multiple environments, in a secure manner, has facilitated rapid development of key client requirements and aided my team in delivering a quality solution.

Cloud-Based iPaaS Removes Barriers to Integration

Rating: 9 out of 10

January 16, 2023

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Making use of FlowGear removes barriers to the market when it comes to integrating Operational Systems with Record Systems. Their extensive pre-build nodes allow for integration from our Supply Chain solutions to a wide range of ERPs and record systems. Benefits of FlowGear when doing integration: 1.) Ease of use - Any resource that is trained can manage to maintain, build and manage the integration layer 2.) Re-usable - an effort made for one integration can easily be replicated especially when using the extensive pre-built nodes 3.) Excellent customer service from FlowGear allows for in-process learning and training. They are readily available to assist when you get stuck in your solution building.

Pros

Easy node code front end
Excellent Customer Service
Adding new pre-built integrations on a regular basis

Cons

More detailed examples on some of the uses of the Nodes
Upgrade and improve some of the samples in pre-built nodes

Likelihood to Recommend

Well Suited 1.) When dealing with SMMEs and higher the pricing model makes sense and has an easy ROI. 2.) When no existing integration layer has been invested in Less Suited 1.) Cost-conscious customers, sometimes the extra annuity fee is difficult to sell 2.) Existing ESBs or Integration solutions are in place and the end user is not willing to change

Simple Yet Powerful Integration Platform

Rating: 10 out of 10

January 10, 2023

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Flowgear provided the most complete, simplistic yet powerful middleware tool in order to integrate and connect our systems. It provided automation in areas that were solely lacking. Having the capability to develop, test and deploy a solution within minutes further extends and shows how quick and easy the platform is to use.

Pros

Point to point integration
Automation
ETL
Data Engineering

Cons

User interface can be confusing at first
Better API management - API Gateway
Use roles and segregation

Likelihood to Recommend

It is great to when you need to move data or integrate platforms regardless of where they sit in your organisation (On-prem, In the cloud). It would be great if there was a better API management interface such as an API gateway to better manage and have an overview of your environment.

Integration the Easy Way

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use the product to do mapping and transformation of data for a product that we've developed. Flowgear has given us the ability to address our business use case. The various sources to integrate into Flowgear has also allowed us to easily make use of them whether they were by connecting via drop points or just directly to our resources.

Pros

various integration nodes to choose from
ease of mapping
quick drop point updates and installations and automatic updates

Cons

Learning should be easy for even a beginner
Users may find the platform a bit overwhelming if they do not understand it

Likelihood to Recommend

I'd personally say when choosing any software one needs to do research and find the best fit. We've come to realise that Flowgear was able to address our business use case and assist us in getting our product to market in a very short time span. Never had a scenario where it was not appropriate as the use case was addressed. From a cost perspective the product is very competitive, but one should always look at what’s out there and gives you the best price point as well.
