viaSocket vs Integrately

1. viaSocket provides Tables, Integrately does not offer a comparable Tables feature

With viaSocket Tables, users can organize their data into tables, making it easier to manage and view. Users can create various views from these tables, allowing for better organization and accessibility of data.

viaSocket's Tables seamlessly integrate with workflows. Users can directly incorporate data from these tables into their workflows, streamlining the automation process.

viaSocket's Tables can be integrated with Interface. Interface allows users to create forms and landing pages. This integration ensures that the data collected through forms and landing pages is centralized within the tables, making it convenient for users to access and manage.

2. viaSocket provides Interface, Integrately does not offer a comparable Interface feature

viaSocket's Interface makes it easy for users to create forms and landing pages without coding. Interface offers drag-and-drop features, allowing users to simply drag elements onto their pages to customize them exactly how they want.

viaSocket's Interface seamlessly integrates with workflows. Users can directly incorporate data from their forms into their workflows, streamlining the automation process.

viaSocket's Interface can be integrated with Tables. Users can directly incorporate data from these forms in viaSocket’s Tables to help streamline the automation process.

3. viaSocket provides Email to Flow, Integrately does not offer a comparable Email to Flow feature

viaSocket’s Email to Flow gives you unique email addresses that can be used to trigger automated workflows. You simply send emails to this address or set up email forwarding from your regular email platform to these unique viaSocket addresses. This way, all your emails are automatically processed according to your predefined workflows.

There are no limits to the number of unique email addresses you can have, so you can set up different workflows for different types of emails. Whether it's handling customer inquiries, processing orders, or managing subscriptions, Email to Flow streamlines the process and saves you valuable time.

4. viaSocket provides Storage, a virtual database that stores data in JSON format, Integrately does not offer a comparable Storage feature

viaSocket’s Storage functions is a virtual database capable of storing data in JSON format. Users can incorporate this tool into their workflows to store data at any step, providing flexibility and customization in data management.

One of the significant advantages of viaSocket's Storage is its ability to allow users to access stored data across different workflows. This enables seamless integration and sharing of data between multiple workflows, enhancing efficiency and consistency in data management.

5. viaSocket offers access to include custom Variables and custom JavaScript codes. Integrately does not offer such high customization features

viaSocket provides advanced customization options by allowing users to include Custom Variables and Custom JavaScript codes in their workflows. This helps users to personalize their workflows to a high degree, and tailor them to their specific needs or requirements. Custom Variables allow users to insert dynamic data into their workflows, and custom JavaScript codes enable users to add custom logic or functionality.

This level of customization allows users to create highly sophisticated workflows that precisely meet their requirements.

6. viaSocket counts 30 seconds of flow execution as one invocation, whereas Integrately counts each Action you set up as One Task

This means that irrespective of the number of actions within the workflow, if the execution time falls within a 30-second window, it will be considered as one invocation. This approach allows users to optimize their workflows for efficiency without worrying about excessive invocation charges for short executions.

On the other hand, Integrately counts each action set up within a workflow as one task. As a result, users may encounter higher task counts depending on the complexity and number of actions within their workflows.

For example, if you have a workflow in Integrately that saves any attachments from the email to a specified folder in Dropbox for each new Email received on Gmail and notifies you about it on Slack, it's counted as two tasks.

So, if you receive 50 emails on Gmail in a day, and each email triggers this workflow, then it will be counted as 50*2= 100 tasks.

On the other hand, viaSocket counts 30 second flow execution as 1 invocation. The same workflow discussed above will be counted as 50 invocations in viaSocket which is way more affordable than Integrately.

7. viaSocket offers big Pricing benefits over Integrately

Integrately offers 30,000 tasks for $124  while viaSocket offers 100,000 invocations for $100, ideal for users with higher workflow usage requirements.

8. 10,000 free invocations vs 100 free tasks/ per month

When it comes to free usage, viaSocket offers 10,000 free invocations compared to Integately’s 100 free tasks. Moreover, Integrately charges $49 for 10,000 tasks. This means viaSocket's free plan offers more flexibility and opportunities for users to explore and use the platform without worrying about costs.
