Someday but definitely not today
This software has a TON of potential, but right now it isn't even in the same arena to contend with tools like Zapier. The good: Activepieces is open-source so I have no doubt there will be rapid development. *IF* you are very tech savvy, you can do just about anything you want with AP. It is effective for use with open.ai and the like. There is a discord community that seems to be very active as well. The bad: While it may happen *someday*, I don't anticipate AP replacing Zapier or similar products, anytime in the near future. It isn't for the non-tech savvy and can be very frustrating. The ugly: I can do basic coding and am pretty tech savvy. AP gave me a migraine after hours of trying to get it to work with some of my tech stack. I finally resigned to plopping my open.ai api in it and generating some ai generated blog drafts (albeit, they'll never actually be used but I was that desperate for some form of self-efficacy gratification).
Response from ActivepiecesOct 17, 2023
Thanks Ashlie for your honest review. Our current focus is to solve more problems than the ones that Zapier solves. Like (1) hosting Activepieces on prem (2) embedding Activepieces in a SaaS product (3) managing accounts on behalf clients and much more. I sent you a request via G2 to book a 15min call with you to understand what went bad with your experience. If you approve it, it will help us make Activepieces a great product for users coming from the same background as yours. Thanks again!
