Step by step

  1. 01

    Zapier

    Easier UI. Per-task pricing gets expensive fast. Best for simple A→B flows.

  2. 02

    Make (formerly Integromat)

    Visual scenario builder, much more powerful. Cheaper per operation.

  3. 03

    Rule of thumb

    Under 1,000 tasks/mo + non-technical user → Zapier. Higher volume or branching logic → Make.

  4. 04

    Both: start free

    Zapier 100 tasks/mo. Make 1,000 ops/mo.
