What's great
I’m using Albato as an automation/integration platform, and what really surprised me was how good their learning support is. They don’t just give you a static help center—they have a video lecture series that walks you through real workflows step by step. That made it much easier for me to understand how the pieces fit together instead of just memorizing features. As someone who doesn’t live in automation tools all day, being able to watch short, focused videos and then immediately replicate what I saw in my own account reduced the learning curve a lot. I went from “ok this looks powerful but scary” to “I can actually build useful automations on my own” in a weekend.
Overall, the educational content is a big reason I stuck with Albato instead of giving up when it looked complex at first - after trying Albato, I even upgraded my plan on Appsumo
What needs improvement
Even though the educational videos are very helpful, each video uses different example to illustrate the tools - it would be great if there was a video series that builds a complex automation from scratch using as many tools in Albato as possible, so that users see all the tools in action.
vs Alternatives
I am new to automation game, so this is the first service I tried, but given the great price I got on Appsumo and the variety of tools Albato offers, I don't have a reason to look for other tools, at least for now.
How well does the App Integrator connect custom APIs?
Very well! Albato offers custom code option through JS or Python, which makes it easy to integrate any API easily.
Are pre-built templates useful or need heavy customization?
The pre-built templates are useful for specific use case they were created to tackle. If a more complex flow is necessary, of course, the template will require customization.
How frequently do they release updates and improvements?
Very frequently: the roadmap section is very extensive and almost impossible to read through everything.
