Zapier vs Syncari

A Zapier alternative that brings trusted data to your automated workflows.

Zapier, like many other iPaaS solutions, promises integration and automation with speed and simplicity. Unfortunately, this is a promise they can’t keep. After deploying an initial set of zaps, many Zapier customers find themselves with disjointed, unreliable, code-centric workflows that can’t keep up with their ever-changing data landscape.

Zapier creates data chaos.

  • Relies on brittle legacy data patterns and techniques
  • Distributes dirty data between and across systems
  • Creates syncs with endless loops and duplicate records
  • Breaks with every schema change, system outage or API issue
  • Requires custom code to meet common requirements

Syncari helps revenue teams take back control of their data.

Syncari combines iPaaS, workflow automation, and data management capabilities into one complete platform, empowering revenue teams to automatically distribute ‘data truth’ throughout the business so every department is working with the same data, without the chaos.

  • Drives data consistency across every connected app from a unified model
  • Makes it easy to govern data and define the source of truth for every field
  • Distributes trusted data back to the apps where revenue teams work
  • Keeps everything in sync as better data emerges via multi-directional sync
