What differentiates Zoho Creator from other similar products?

ZOHO Creator is quite helpful when any client is already present on other ZOHO Modules. It is easier to build and easier to integrate. It can not only help in optimizing cost but also build smoother processes of app integration. One might have to face specific sync and performance issues as the load increases, but overall functionality is amazing to deal with.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Integration with other modules in ZOHO is the best part. For any business like us, who is working on the entire ZOHO Ecosystem at large, Creator can be very helpful in building customizations and automations across applications.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The platform is robust, but there are per minute API hit limits and then workflow limits which results in the system crashing when the load increases. Moreover, Creator do not fail that often, but the other apps integrated with Creator show abnormality when the load goes up. This results in sync issues, status mismatch, stopping workflows etc.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Do a proper load testing before you move the entire business on creator. Creator is majorly suitable to small and mid sized companies where it can handle end-to-end. But for large scale companies where there are complex system processes and a lot of data flow between various nodes, it might create challenges. But a proper analysis and load allocation can actually make creator very very helpful.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Reliable
  • Enables Productivity
  • Trustworthy

Cons

  • Slower Product Innovation
  • Commodity Features
  • Less Efficient Service
