Many Errors while setting up automations.

15k Automations per month for 60 bucks as a lifetime deal sounded spicy so i took it. But its not really 15k per month. Every automation you create with API just burns 8640 Automation tokens every month just by existing, without ever sending any real data. Sounds crazy? Yeah, the pricing model kinda is. Promising/Charging for Automation attempts rather than actual automations is very unintuitive and a frustrating experience for the user.

So yeah, you can basically automate 1 Workflow for lifetime with 6360 Automations in 1 flow with 15k "Automations" in Tier 1. If you'd try to attempt to let a second workflow run, you'd be at 17k/month already just by having 2 triggers existing without actually doing something.

Yes i know that the customer success representative is gonna answer with an article how they published something to reduce credit consumption. Yeah, i saw that. It does not help that only 5% of the apps allow webhooks as triggers. And even those seem to not work on albato. I tried 10 minutes to create a slack webhook trigger and send the same message to discord. It did not catch the webhook. Just the normal credit usage gave me errors as well with no data exchanged. I tried 50 minutes to make a 2 step automation work. Didnt work with some error codes and the struggle and time to try to come up with a solution is honestly not worth it. I rather grab another tool even if it costs more so i dont have these headaches.

Easy 5 Tacos

albato - powerful automations, beginner friendly setup

1. click on "Apps" and "add a connection" (to one of your web apps)
2. repeat step 1 with any app you want to use within an automation
3. click on "Automations" and "create new automation" (just connect the dots)
That' it. Awesome. It just works.

Also I am not very technical and I don't know how f.e. webhooks really work but with albato even I could set them up and again: it just works.

Thanks for this wonderful tool. Keep going, team albato!

I bought albato's max tier a few months ago when they had 500 apps to connect with, now they are at 800. In case one of your apps would still be missing you could either request it or even build your own connection. Also just do the math, this tool pays for itself in no time :-)

I highly recommend albato to the community, easy 5 Tacos. Don't miss out on this one!!

Love the concept, but not intuitive

I REALLY want to love this purchase, but I can't. Things like the App Integrator are very confusing, and their tutorials are more frustrating than helpful. For a Zapier alternative, this is nowhere near as intuitive to understand as Zapier. I purchased a Chatbase LTD and was hoping to use the two together, but no luck, even though they have an integration for it. I would gladly change to 5 tacos if I could ever get the program figured out beyond connecting it to Google products.

A well-developed product that exceeds expectations!

Albato is an amazing tool that has truly impressed me with its quality and functionality. The UX and UI are excellent, making the user experience intuitive and enjoyable. If you're looking for a great alternative to Zapier, Albato is definitely worth considering, especially for those who need complex, multi-step solutions.

The support team is simply outstanding, and this is no exaggeration! They helped me build the automation I couldn't create on my own, showing patience and expertise. A special thanks to Dariusz for his incredible support.

In my personal experience, I’m using Albato to connect Tidycall to ActiveCampaign, making it similar to, if not even more efficient than, the native Calendly app. With Albato, I was able to separate first and last names into two distinct fields, assign different names for the six calendar types in Tidycall, and transfer them to ActiveCampaign, placing all the questions through arrays into the various fields of ActiveCampaign.

Believe me, this tool is worth its weight in gold! I genuinely want to give my honest feedback: no one paid me for this, but I just want to express my appreciation for the Albato team who helped me with my work and are saving me money!

Looks promising but its not easy to use

I have been Albato for last 1 month and here is my honest review who has some software background...
1. As they mentioned No Coding / Technical skills required, its not like that. This requires you to have technical knowledge.
2. UI is not easy.
3. Very bad technical support. Its been 1 month, they couldn't even solve my 1st technical query. They take long hours to reply you, sometimes days. You have lot many other work in the life, you cannot sit all the time to wait for the reply.
4. I have used free versions of Make, Integrately, Pabbly Connect. They are much better than Albato as they provide very easy UI. For me Albato didn't work on the day 1 and after that its really annoys me to visit again.
After the bad experience of 1 month, I am gonna claim for refund.

Hey, NAV65684!

We are sorry to hear of your negative experience with Albato.

We designed our entire platform so that it can be used without the need for coding. App Integrator, specifically, is a feature that requires the user to have a general understanding of an API's structure in order to transfer the information from the app's documentation to our platform. We’ve created various tutorials to...
