- Volume: 10,000 ops vs 750 tasks (13x more capacity)
- Visual builder with routers, filters, and error handling

Zapier Wins On

The Caveat
Make has a steeper learning curve. The visual builder with routers, iterators, and error routes takes 2-4 hours to learn vs Zapier 30-minute onboarding. For non-technical teams that need simple two-step automations, Zapier simplicity is worth the price premium. For anyone comfortable with flowcharts, Make is the better tool.
