关于客户
本案例研究中的客户多种多样,从个体企业家到成熟组织。 GreenSocks 的创始人理查德·伊斯特斯 (Richard Eastes) 是一位企业家,他需要一种快速有效的方法将其按需割草服务的想法转变为一项正常运转的业务。总统创新研究员团队隶属于白宫,正在寻找一种简化和自动化招聘流程的方法。 Freelanship 是一家初创公司,致力于将学生与需要自由实习生的公司相匹配。 SimpleData 是一家将勘探转化为服务的公司,而 Car Values 是一个帮助消费者找到合理二手车价格的工具。尽管存在差异,所有这些客户都有一个共同点:他们需要一种方法来自动化流程并快速将他们的想法变成现实,而无需编写一行代码。
挑战
将想法转化为可行的产品或服务的过程通常既耗时又复杂,尤其是对于初创企业而言。在开发定制软件或系统来支持业务时尤其如此。对于非技术创始人来说,这一挑战更加艰巨,他们可能缺乏构建自己的软件所需的编码技能。这就是理查德·伊斯特斯 (Richard Eastes) 提出按需割草服务 GreenSocks 的想法时所面临的情况。他需要一种方法来快速有效地将他的想法转化为有效的业务,而无需编写一行代码。同样,其他初创公司和组织,例如白宫总统创新研究员团队,也在寻找简化和自动化流程的方法,而无需投资昂贵且耗时的定制软件开发。
解决方案
这些挑战的解决方案是以 Zapier 的形式出现,该工具允许用户在不同的 Web 应用程序之间自动执行任务。 Eastes 使用 Zapier 将各种现成的软件组合在一起,无需编写任何代码即可有效启动基于网络应用程序的初创公司。他使用 Zapier 自动化记录每个订单、将其发送给团队成员以及处理付款的过程。这使他能够在短短 24 小时内启动并运营自己的业务。同样,总统创新研究员团队使用 Zapier 来自动化和简化他们的招聘流程。他们使用表单、Trello 中的招聘工作流程、Gmail 电子邮件通知、Google Sheets 电子表格来跟踪数据,并使用 Zapier 将所有这些联系在一起。这使他们能够简化招聘流程并节省数月昂贵的编程工作。其他初创公司和组织,例如 Freelanship、SimpleData 和 Car Values,也使用 Zapier 来自动化他们的流程并快速将他们的想法变成现实。

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
