Zapier or another IFTTT service

I think that’s what the other thread I referenced is about. However, my impression is that the best way to get a zapier integration (and one that works) is by doing it yourself. Most companies seem to provide their own zapier integration. At least zapier support often tell me that they can’t fix it because the integration is maintained by whatever company it is.

Having said that, I am not sure zapier is the best service to focus on. Their integrations are pretty basic and geared towards the consumer market. Their benefit, of course, is in being the market leader. Integromat let’s you basically design your own custom integration with a lot of detail, including text processing and what not.

The question is who would this integration be aimed at. If it is admins and developers, I think something like integromat would be better. If the idea is that any forum member should be able to, I don’t know, pull all posts in a specific category over to their dropbox, then zapier might be better.

The only open source alternative seems to be bip.io but they don’t even keep their SSL certificate up to date…
