People ❤️ Tallyfy
Simple for everyone. Robust for champs.
"We can finally delegate work with confidence and focus on growing the business.
"A paper-based approval for critical purchases could take a couple of days before if someone was waiting for a director to be available for a signature. Now approvals are often completed in minutes.
"Tallyfy has been transformative for us. It's reduced manual errors, sped up processes like onboarding, and helped us document workflows that are critical as we grow. The ability to track tasks and aggregate them in one place saves us so much time and ensures that nothing falls through the cracks.
"Tallyfy is intuitive, fun and visually appealing. We can quickly gather every detail we need from our client in order to finish it on time. All the documents, specific details and comments are in one place.
"It has become a regular thing that people say 'put that in Tallyfy'. They know it by name. It has become the executive approval tool for our company. We have bi-weekly Tallyfy calls where we review what needs approval and what is pending - it keeps everyone aligned.
"It used to take us two days to run monthly client campaigns, now, with the help of Tallyfy, we complete them in just a few hours!
"Tallyfy is a very reliable way to delegate and track tasks with confidence. It has taken the guesswork out of the equation and has helped our team focus on delivering a service within deadlines. Thank you for making my life much easier!
"Our clients and team sail through the Tallyfy process - there is no need for clients to log in, there is one link for everything they need to do, everything saves in real-time - it all works incredibly well! I can't imagine scaling our agency without Tallyfy.
"Tallyfy has revolutionized how we manage our marketing projects at West Community Credit Union. It allows us to quickly launch tailored campaigns and track every moving part, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. The ease of creating flexible, repeatable processes has saved us significant time and improved team collaboration.
"Tallyfy transformed how we manage client onboarding and policy renewals. It eliminated inefficiencies, reduced meeting times from hours to minutes, and helped us avoid costly penalties by automating key processes. We now have full visibility over tasks, and I no longer need to chase down updates - it's all right there.
"With Tallyfy, we have seen clarity in our processes as well as any bottlenecks. Tallyfy would be a good fit for any company that has a design, approval and implementation process that needs to have a quick turn around and that is growing fast.
"Tallyfy has helped our team streamline the efficiency of our processes. We now have smooth processes from beginning to end - without any steps being forgotten or skipped.
"If you want to be efficient and scale your business then Tallyfy is the way go. There is no question about it.
"Routing multiple documents is far quicker and there's immediate accountability and oversight. After switching to Tallyfy, routing documents and layouts went from taking over a week to taking just 2-3 days.

Tallyfy vs. IFTTT
Which tool is right for you?
Honest comparison to help you make the right choice
Tallyfy is best for
- Business workflows involving human tasks and decisions
- Client and employee onboarding processes
- Approval workflows that need audit trails
- Processes where you need to see who's doing what
- Teams that want to document and standardize procedures
IFTTT may be better for
- Simple consumer app-to-app automations
- Smart home device connections
- Personal productivity triggers
- Social media cross-posting
- One-person automations with no human handoffs
Here's why people are frustrated with IFTTT
This is third party content sourced from the public web. You can verify this content if you wish. See our disclaimer and citations section below.
" Everything was great until they disabled my applets without warning. Seemingly they've suddenly decided they were using "pro" features, even though they're extremely basic.[1] "
" A service that could be great, but instead is very unreliable. Doesn't fire the trigger at the right time - the delay keeps increasing to the point that there is a several hours delay.[2] "
" I've been running my applets for a few years now and I've been experiencing HOURS of delay on all of them... Many of my applets randomly break, and I don't bother to fix them because they're so slow it's not useful.[3] "
" IFTTT used to be great and free. Now barely useful. In the free version only 2 applets are possible - otherwise subscription.[4] "
" IFTTT originally pledged to honor its set-your-own-price plan for legacy users "forever," but the service reneged on its promise. Well, it turns out "forever" has an expiration date.[5] "
" The advanced features are somewhat lacking. Writing your own applets using the IFTTT current tools (let alone debugging them) is quite cumbersome and left me frustrated.[6] "
" Applets sometimes just close for no reason with no error, and finding solutions to these issues has been difficult.[7] "
" Some integrations require regular re-authentication or experience occasional reliability issues, especially with third-party services.[8] "
" There's sometimes a lag time and there are still bugs in some of the applets. I used to love IFTTT but over time as my needs have changed and their plans changed, I've started looking for alternatives.[9] "
" The interface is sometimes too simple. There are some clunky issues when you want to do more than one event at a time. If you want branching logic it can be cumbersome.[10] "
" Users have continually reduced their offerings, even for paying customers, and never fixed longstanding user interface and reliability issues. Why are rate limits so low for customers paying $150/year?[11] "
" IFTTT can pose security issues, as it often requires giving access to third-party data and accounts.[12] "
" Location services rarely work correctly. Multiple days during the week the applets do not work. I'm not going to pay for an app that has been a terrible experience the entire time.[13] "
" Only users with a Pro or Pro+ subscription can contact their technical support. Free users have no access to support, and they state they're "not able to respond to every report."[14] "
" IFTTT triggers originating from SmartThings stopped working. While applets updating SmartThings device status were working, applets reading SmartThings device status were not - and this went unfixed for weeks.[15] "
- Only 2 applets
- Standard speeds
- No Twitter
- No multi-action
- 20 applets
- Faster speeds
- Twitter access
- Multi-action applets
- Unlimited applets
- AI services
- Multiple accounts
- Query and filter code
Tallyfy might not be right for you if...
Tallyfy isn't for everyone. Here's when it may not fit:
- Not designed for consumer app-to-app automation or smart home triggers
- Focused on human work, not data movement between apps
- Best for business processes, not personal productivity hacks
Track human work, not just app triggers
What IFTTT can't do - see who's doing what
Is middleware the real problem?
Are you hearing this at work? That's busywork
Enter between 1 and 150,000
Enter between 0.5 and 40
Enter between $10 and $1,000
Based on $30/hr x 4 hrs/wk
Your loss and waste is:
every week
What you are losing
Cash burned on busywork
per week in wasted wages
What you could have gained
160 extra hours could create:
per week in real and compounding value
Total cumulative impact over time (real cost + missed opportunities)
You are bleeding cash, annoying every employee and killing dreams.
