Make (ex-Integromat) is a visual no-code automation platform for building complex scenario-based workflows. It’s a good tool — for generic use. If your business has specific needs, a custom AI solution will go further, for less over 3 years.
Make is an excellent tool — for generic use. These limitations appear when your business logic goes beyond what a standard SaaS can handle.
Your Make invoice spikes as soon as your volumes increase. Every action in a scenario costs operations, and complex workflows quickly become expensive.
Make handles simple cases well. When your process has complex business rules, nested conditions, or exceptions, you're stuck.
One API change in one of your tools and your entire scenario breaks. Maintaining Make workflows in production is time-consuming and underestimated.
Make can call AI APIs, but it's not designed for it. Integrating AI agents, NLP, or intelligent decision-making remains a patchwork.
An honest comparison. Every situation is different — that’s why we always start with a free audit.
Not a copy of Make. Your tool, designed for your team and the way you work.
We code your workflows with all the business logic Make can't handle: nested conditions, error handling, exception rules.
Automatic classification, information extraction, intelligent decision-making — AI is at the heart of your automations, not bolted on afterward.
Your automation runs on our infrastructure or yours. No operation counter, no surprise at month end.
Moving from Make to a custom solution in 4 steps. Transparent, without production downtime.
We analyze how you use Maketoday: which processes, which teams, which data. We identify what works and what’s holding you back.
We design the architecture of your custom tool. Every screen, every workflow, every business rule is validated with you before development.
We export your data from Make, migrate it, and support you through the transition. Your teams don’t lose their data or habits.
Go-live, team training, and support. The code is yours. You’re autonomous.
Everything you’re wondering before taking the leap.
Yes. We audit your current scenarios, identify what can be reproduced as-is and what's worth rethinking. Migration is progressive — you never cut to production.
For low volumes, Make may be cheaper short-term. Beyond a few thousand operations per month, and especially when you add the time spent maintaining scenarios, custom automation becomes competitive.
We can replace them with direct API integrations to your tools, often more stable and faster than no-code connectors.
Count 2 to 6 weeks depending on the complexity of your scenarios. We migrate in batches, starting with the most critical workflows. Your Make scenarios stay active in parallel until full validation.
No. We handle hosting, maintenance and updates under a support contract. If you have an in-house developer, they can take over — the code is clean and documented.
If you have fewer than 5 simple scenarios with low volumes (under 1,000 operations/month), Make remains relevant. As soon as you add complex business logic or your volumes grow, the custom alternative becomes profitable.
A high-volume Make Teams subscription costs €500 to €2,000/month, or €6,000 to €24,000/year. Our custom solution represents an initial investment comparable to 12-18 months of subscription, then much lower maintenance costs.
Using multiple tools? We can replace them all with a single custom platform.
We start with a free audit of your situation: your current tools, your costs, your way of working. Then we honestly tell you if a custom solution is the right choice.
