Integrate a single REST API instead of many and use our UI tools to quickly build integrations into your app. We maintain all the integrations so you can focus on building awesome products.
Zapier and Kloudless can be primarily classified as "Web Service Automation" tools.
Some of the features offered by Zapier are:
- A Zap is a blueprint for a task you want to do over and over. In words, a Zap looks like this: "When I get a new thing in A, do this other thing in B." The first part is the trigger and the second part is the action. An example is "When I get a new entry from a Wufoo form, create a new lead in Salesforce."
- You can pick what fields from the trigger service should go to the action service and you can use static text and custom fields too. For instance, you might say that the phone number from your Wufoo form should be the work phone of your new Salesforce lead.
- Zapier regularly checks your trigger for new data. When the Zap triggers, Zapier automatically performs your action for you. Continuing with the Wufoo scenario, say you receive five new entries. Zapier takes each one and makes a new lead in Salesforce, customized to the way you specified in your Zap.
On the other hand, Kloudless provides the following key features:
- Cloud Storage API
- Calendar API
- Chat API
