Who should you choose and why?

✋ Most important consideration

  • Despite both being in the iPaaS category, Tray.io and Workato are primarily focused on automating tasks in various business functions, like HR, sales, and marketing. If that’s not your focus, you’ll have to look elsewhere for a solution.

🤔 Slightly consider Tray.io over Workato if

  • You need to embed integrations into your own product, potentially with a white-labeled solution like Tray.io. However, Workato also has an embedded option although it's a bit less mature.

🤔 Strongly consider Workato over Tray.io if

  • You want an API gateway and some kind of API administration in front of your APIs.
  • You better version control over your integrations.
  • You want to easily detect data redundancies or inconsistencies with a master reference store.
  • You want to share integration assets across different teams.

📝 Other Notes

  • Workato has better runtime administration features.
  • Workato has great AI or chatbot-assisted integration development.
  • Tray.io does not support on-premises deployment whereas Workato does by providing an on-premises agent (OPA).
  • Both Tray.io and Workato are tools built for the integration needs of modern stacks.
