Make (formerly Integromat) lets you build automation scenarios with a visual drag-and-drop canvas, handling complex branching logic and data transformation. These alternatives range from simple trigger-action tools to developer-grade workflow engines.
Each app below addresses a specific gap in Make's offering. We picked them based on real user review patterns and feature differentiation.
Zapier connects 6,000+ apps with a simple trigger-action model. It is easier to set up than Make and has a larger app library, though it lacks Make's visual canvas and is more expensive for complex multi-step workflows.
Explore Zapier data →n8n is a self-hostable, open-source alternative to Make with a similar visual canvas. It has no per-operation limits on self-hosted instances, making it far more cost-effective at scale. Requires technical comfort to set up and maintain.
Explore n8n data →Pipedream lets developers build workflows with Node.js, Python, Go, or Bash steps alongside no-code triggers. It is more flexible than Make for custom data transformation and connects to any API. Generous free tier for developers.
Explore Pipedream data →Activepieces is a newer open-source automation tool with a clean, modern UI and growing connector library. It supports self-hosting and is building rapidly — a strong pick for teams who want an open-source tool that is easier to use than n8n.
Explore Activepieces data →Power Automate connects Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Dynamics, and 400+ connectors with both low-code flows and RPA desktop automation. For Microsoft-heavy enterprises, it is included in M365 subscriptions and offers deep native integration.
Explore Microsoft Power Automate data →Workato targets enterprise automation with advanced security, compliance, and governance features. It supports complex ERP and CRM integrations, API management, and real-time data sync — at a price point above Make but with enterprise-grade reliability.
Explore Workato data →Teams evaluating Make alternatives often need simpler setup, lower cost at high operation volumes, or deeper enterprise security controls.
Make uses a visual canvas that shows the full data flow of a scenario, making it better for complex, branching workflows. Zapier uses a linear step-by-step model that is easier for beginners but less suited to intricate logic.
Make has a free plan with 1,000 operations per month and up to 5 active scenarios. Paid plans start at $9/month for 10,000 operations.
Yes. Make supports instant webhooks that trigger scenarios in real time. The free plan processes webhooks at 15-minute polling intervals; paid plans support instant triggers.
n8n for technical teams who want self-hosted automation without per-operation limits. Zapier for non-technical users who need quick setup and the broadest app library. Pipedream for developers who need code-level data transformation.
