new at zapier in february

It's already been a busy 2016 at Zapier. We launched Multi-Step Zaps, a brand new Zap editor, plus more than 20 new apps that help you get more out of your data.

This month is no different, and if you missed anything new, here's a quick roundup!



After upgrading Zapier with the launch of Multi-Step Zaps in our rear-view mirror, we got back to our bread and butter: adding new apps to the platform. This March we welcomed 26 tools to the team—everything from returned to bringing plenty of new apps into the Zapier family. In March, 26 new apps came to Zapier, from a meeting scheduling app, to popular project management app MeisterTask, to the much anticipated Google Forms integration.

Here's every app that we added to Zapier in March, and how you can use each one to automate your workflows.

New Apps

Chatfuel

Chatbots are a great way to engage with your community and share information. If you find yourself wanting to stay in touch with a large group of people, try setting up chatbots through Chatfuel.

Facebook Lead Ads

With 1.5 billion active users, you can easily turn Facebook into a lead-generating machine with lead ads. Gather leads from any Facebook ad with just a couple taps, and send the data to Zapier-connected CRMs, email marketing apps, or spreadsheets.

See our Facebook Lead Ads integration for available Triggers.

Calendly

Never play email ping pong just to find a meeting time. Let Calendly take that major painpoint away: you can use it to send anyone a link to your complete schedule, so they can pick a time when you're both available (minus the runaround).

See our Calendly integration for available Actions.

ConvertKit

Bloggers do it all: from writing and publishing to marketing. ConvertKit can help you spread the word about every new post by turning your website into a lead generating machine, complete with drip email sequences and powerful marketing automation like segmentation and email scheduling. Their tools bridge the gap between you and your audience.

Use Google tools and need to create a form or survey? Google Forms can be used with any Google account, and the data you collect can be sent to another app via Zapier. Plus, you can use a Zap to funnel responses into the app, or look up existing entries.

Creators know it's not enough to just make your art—you have to worry about selling it and all the things that come with being a small business owner, too. Big Cartel takes a lot of the nitty-gritty details off of your plate, with tools that help you build a web shop, manage inventory and track sales management. You can keep creating and let someone else take care of the hard stuff.
