    Just be aware that there is a catch for some of the features that is not well communicated: For example for the Facebook Lead integration, Once you install all the required integration, create your Facebook Lead form, and spend 2 hours working it all out, you discover that you need an Automator Pro version to send email to the user to filled out the form. There is a way around it, but it takes a while to find. I have no problem if they want to save certain features to Pro uses. But I think they should update it in a short note on their App info page.

    It’s a great product with great support. Slightly frustrating that they think I want a tab on every single admin page of every website I have it installed on for their new ‘Uncanny Agent’ – honestly who thought this was a good idea. I hate decisions like this. But apart from that it’s a solid purchase This topic was modified 2 months, 1 week ago by tombcm. This topic was modified 2 months, 1 week ago by tombcm.

    Uncanny Automator has been utterly transformational for our website! My team is a total of two people, and the website, with WooCommerce, LearnDash, and a CRM is entirely my responsibility. Automator has made all of these functions simply sing together, and it saves me hours of time in which I don’t have to manage registrations, orders, emails, notices to students, notices to instructors, and more. I absolutely could not go back to running our site without it. The support is great, too, with real people who respond in actual sentences to the question I asked, and not just from a script!

    Trying to stitch together several complex workflows in WordPress is a dream with Uncanny Automator. I’m using it with WP Forms and WooCommmerce and it’s an absolute peach of a plugin.No issues so far. Very happy.

    I use the Thrive Themes product, Thrive Automator. It’s great. But Thrive took the decision to sunset Automator and plug their sister product Uncanny Automator instead. However, using Uncanny Automator is uncannily like going back in time to a place of deficient plugins that promise everything and deliver nothing. Uncanny Automator is cumbersome, awkward and seemingly incapable of integrating with WordPress and Thrive Apprentice. It’s little short of a disaster substitute for the cleverness and subtlety of Thrive Automator. Expect to waste time trying to get it to work functionally.

    Great tool and support! Have been using Automator successfully for years to connect my two wordpress instances (an eCom site and a learning management system) – and have gradually expanded the level of automation on both sites. The Automator Plugin is like a Swiss Army knife, once you get the hang of how to use it. And in case you get stuck on setting up or troubleshooting a recipe the Support team is very helpful in solving any questions you have. Many thanks for the recent two solutions (on importing LMS groups users and auto registering group members to an event)

    It took me some time to work it out with WP Forms but once I had it working it was great, so easy to link with Google Sheets and make a list rather than relying on emails or messages and then sort them out. Its too expensive to buy for using once or twice a year, its a pity they don’t e.g. pay for a 1000 uses?
