All three tools connect apps and run workflows when something happens. The best choice depends on your team, your budget and how custom your logic needs to be.
Zapier
Very easy to start, with a large catalogue of ready-made app connections. Pricing is usually based on the number of tasks, so costs can grow with volume.
Make
A visual builder that handles branching and data transformation well, at a lower entry cost for many use cases.
n8n
Flexible and developer friendly. It supports custom code and can be self-hosted, which gives control over data and cost, but it needs more technical care.
How we choose
- How many workflows and how often they run - Whether custom logic or code is needed - Where data must be stored - Who will maintain the workflows
Pricing and features change, so always check each provider's current plans before deciding.
