Make and Zapier both automate without code, but they price very differently. Zapier is the easiest and has the most integrations, and it is also the most expensive as volume grows. Make is cheaper per run and more flexible. For agencies at real volume, usually beats both on cost. Here is the honest breakdown.
Answer a few and get a recommendation for your situation.
| Make | Zapier | n8n | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Per operation | Per task | Flat or self-hosted |
| Cost at scale | Cheaper than Zapier | Most expensive | Cheapest |
| Native connectors | 1500+ | 7000+ | 400+ plus any API |
| Ease of use | Visual, moderate | Easiest | Steeper, most powerful |
| Custom logic and code | Some | Minimal | Full code |
| Self-host and own data | No | No | Yes |
Zapier is worth it for quick, simple, low-volume zaps where its 7000+ connectors save time. Make is the better value once you run more operations and want more control. At agency volume, though, both get expensive next to n8n, which AOC builds on and migrates agencies to.
Rough estimate. Real pricing depends on your plan and steps per run. n8n assumes self-hosting at a flat cost.
