Love the concept, but I found Pipes got very complex to do anything I wanted - a common problem with visual tools. Zapier solves this by pre-configuring tasks

Zapier solves this by pre-configuring tasks that most people want. Also better times for it, with so many web-apps and web APIs around now.
- drgath 14y agoAgreed. Pipes is cool, but as a developer, YQL is so much more intuitive. When I think of accessing data, I think of SQL & REST APIs, not diagrams. But, Pipes is good for non-developers who don't know SQL.
