Zapier: Workflow Automation

Zapier allows me to automate repetitive tasks between Shopify and countless other apps I use. From adding new customers to email lists to updating inventory in my fulfillment system, Zapier takes the manual work out of the equation, saving me precious time.

This app is AWESOME. I always thought, "wouldn't it be great if I could..." without realizing that I can, using Zapier. I'm feeling a little impatient for some of the other services I use (AHEM, SHIPSTATION) to get on the bandwagon and make some integrations available through Zapier so I and everybody else can run our businesses more efficiently. But this app has already saved me so, so much ...

If you need to get data out of Shopify into another system this is the way to go. All our orders are in Salesforce thanks to this app.

There are some things I would like it to do that it doesn't, though these aren't the app's fault. Some of the data that comes out of Shopify is incomplete or formatted weird, which required lots of work on the Salesforce end to get it to work (triggers, etc). ...

Zapier is an amazing tool. Their support is also quite incredible. When you have those moments of frustration with native integrations, Zapier comes to the rescue. In our case, that means automatically adding new Shopify contacts to Zendesk. We also use it to drive facebook leads to mailchimp for lead generation campaigns.

Easy set-up, very intuitive, and saves us hours!

Before we were having to manually export and import order data which impacted lead time and sometimes created data entry errors. Now we can focus on delivering the best possible customer experience. Thank you Zapier!

UPDATE 12/12/18:
Wow - we have been saving a lot of time for a long time now. The zaps described below in our original review are outdated. Zapier has also become even more powerful (multi-step zaps with alternate paths).

We now do way more and with some different apps (HelpScout, Base, TypeForm). New customers get emails asking how they found us (and a follow-up after a week if they don't ...

Once you start using Zapier, you'll wonder how you ever managed without it. It's just the great thing, for Shopify and for everything else.

A great way to couple shopify to external services that do not have a direct app

Zapier continually provides our business with workaround solutions that would otherwise be impossible.

Long story short, great user interface, A+ reliability, endless possibilities for custom implementations, and definitely worth the money.

Most recently we created a Zapier "Zap" that triggers a custom email in gmail when a new order is placed in Shopify. The Zap receives all relevant information ...

Great, but it seems a little pricey until you consider the savings (the value)

Zapier integration does save time over the long run - make sure you have lots of things you want to automate to get the best value per zap. Also, consider how much the savings represent - for instance if it used to take 1 person 2 minutes to do something 3 times a day, how many $$ has that saved overall? Count the ...
