UI navigation can be better Licensing model can be flexible Training videos on knowledge documents can be better, not many resources available when needed to troubleshoot and we have to create support case for help.

Dislike

The dashboarding capability in the tool is difficult to use and has limited capabilities.

Absence of advanced workflow creation features like loop and file exports, a steep learning curve due to a multitude of options and difficulties in implementing unsupported connection types, restrictions in scheduling complex workstreams via trigger/action tab, and complications in exporting workflow dependencies. These issues have impacted the user experience.
