Activepieces Reviews

Unless you're tech savvy, forget about getting proper support on this app. After a month-long and numerous attempts get a simple discord bot to work, it simply doesn't not connect. I've done everything. I may be in the wrong but trying to find support is like trying to get through a maze. I sure hope improvements are on the way.

I like the idea of ActivePieces. The interface is pretty intuitive. Unfortunately the integrations, or 'pieces' as they are known, are often half-baked. For example the Xero piece has actions available - but no triggers, so you can't trigger an automation based on an invoice being paid (a pretty basic requirement). This is typical of the sort of frustrations you come up against when using this software.

Development is slow, REALLY slow. but I still retain optimism that at some point the project will gain traction and become a real alternative to Zapier and Pably. When that happens I will be happy to up the number of Tacos I'm awarding.

I really wanted to like Active Pieces. I tried to set up flows that take order details and write each line item to a row in a Google Sheet. Before purchasing, I checked that AC has line item handling – they claimed to. But it simply doesn't work. I tried every conceivable way to fetch Shopify and WooCommerce line item data – it just fails. I raised an issue – you are directed to community support. I noticed other similar complaints about line item handling and no working answers. There's no help from the AC team other than "we will fix this later". And the documentation is very poor. I've since tried to create a flow that simply uploads an email attachment to a Google Drive folder. It doesn't work – the 'parent folder' (where you start to choose the destination Google Drive folder) just has an endless spinner.

I would like my money back.

Hear me out. I know they "only" have 181 peices, but guess what? When selecting a piece to use, you can click on the AI and ask it to make one for you. Here's a tip, if it has problems making it, copy the API documentation and tell AI to use it as a reference. If you add this into your consideration, i got a steal.

Great idea, bad execution. Unfortunately we can not make it work. No templates that make sense. I mean I want to post on instagram, simple as that, give us instructions.
