Map what is actually moving
Start with the workflows hidden in inboxes, scripts, schedulers, Windows services, and spreadsheet exports.
How deep into Integration Hell are you?
A lovingly uncomfortable checklist for teams whose business-critical integrations are held together by exports, scripts, and one person called Rick.
The checklist
Tick every confession that applies.
No judgement. Well, a little judgement. But mostly a score, a recommended next step, and a cleaner way out with Flowgear.
Who is Rick?
Rick built the spreadsheet everyone relies on. It worked. We love him for it. But when the proverbial bus shows up, the business needs integration, not a single point of failure.
Hell depth
0/6
Warm, but survivable
Recommended next step
You have smoke, not flames.
Pick the most repetitive handoff and turn it into a visible Flowgear workflow before it becomes tradition.
Escape route
From folklore to Flowgear
The goal is not another heroic script. It is a workflow your team can inspect, run, monitor, and improve without summoning the original author.
Move it into a governed workflow
Put the business logic somewhere visible, versioned, reusable, and observable instead of buried in one person's laptop lore.
Run, monitor, and change without panic
When the API changes, you should be fixing one governed workflow, not sending a forensic team into a folder named Final_v7.
Ready to stop maintaining the spreadsheet afterlife?
Flowgear gives developers and operations teams one governed place to build, run, observe, and repair integrations.
