Integration App vs Paragon
Integration App
API-first engine.
Universal Integrations.
Paragon
UI-first workflow builder.
One integration at a time.
Universal Integrations
Build integration scenario once and automatically apply it to all the relevant apps. Do not repeat yourself and keep your integrations manageable.
Single-app Integrations
Build each scenario for every application one by one. Not sustainable if you want to build more than a few integrations.
Pre-built or fully custom end-user Ul
We offer a library of pre-built UI components and headless API that lets you build fully custom UI without using any of our HTML or styles.
Pre-built Ul only
Paragon offers a pre-built UI you can embed as an iframe. You can tune it a bit, but not enough.
API-first development. Ul on top of it
Everything you can do with our engine you can do via API. Just check our API reference.
UI-first development. Limited API
You have to build and configure integrations via Ul. There is no API access to integration blueprints or customer configurations.
No Vendor Lock-in
Connectors, integrations, user configurations, and credentials are fully available and exportable. You fully own your integrations, in case you decide to switch.
Full vendor lock
There is no way to export integrations you've built from Paragon. If you decide to switch, you have to reimplement your integrations.
