Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It's a desktop database app that evolved over decades conservatively without jamming in thoughtless features. You can prototype a fair amount but if you limit yourself to their tools, you'll have the fastest rapid solution creation of anything else out there. This is probably good for a version 1 of many database related apps - even if you have grand plans, you never really know the whole picture until using it and this is probably the best place to begin. Make your custom app from scratch someday but if you want rapid changes and results this is the thing to use. Change around your table structure without hardly any labor or mistakes; unlike SQL.
  • It's an extremely powerful platform, and it walks the line perfectly between a simple tool that's easy to start with, and a full-fledged development environment where the sky is the limit.

Cons

  • It can take many years before they make a useful change you wish they would implement. There are plug-ins and the ability to make standalone apps but the plug-in system is a last resort in my opinion. MOST your needs are built-in if you start to need extensions then you should move to making an app... but then when you realize the TIME it'll take you to recreate it... you end up staying. They push for subscriptions like everybody; but they will sell you an expensive perpetual license still; which I prefer and worry someday they may stop... migrating between large leaps in versions is always painless (like MS products.)
  • The only limitation I've found so far is that an application will scale to about 1,000 concurrent users, but that hasn't presented any kind of problem for me.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Service is very robust and offers freedom in how you set up your automations. The overall system design makes sense and it is pleasant to work with. It gives you tools to solve problems. It is way cheaper then Zapier. Also Make is not limited by "no code" mindset, I appreciate it.
  • Wide Integration Capabilities: Make supports an array of applications, from popular SaaS tools to custom APIs. This connectivity allows you to automate processes across multiple platforms seamlessly. User-Friendly Interface: The drag-and-drop functionality makes it accessible for users with varying levels of technical expertise. Even those with no coding knowledge can create powerful automations quickly. Cost-Effective Pricing: Compared to its competitors, Make offers competitive pricing plans that provide good value for startups and small businesses looking to implement automation without breaking the bank.
  • Very easy to use. Great visual interface. Formation plateform via Make Partners. Almost everything is possible.
  • Easy to use, nice interface, good price for the possibilities ones get, no extra documentation necessary, very good problem handling in case of lost connections.
  • Ease of use. Compatibility with other software & apps. Webhooks & Instant triggers. Timesaving and works "on top" of other other tools.

Cons

  • Steeper learning curve then Zapier, some IT experience is very useful. It is not trivial to chain scenarios and there is no merge/join node.
  • Learning Curve: Although the platform is user-friendly, there is a learning curve when first getting accustomed to its features. Custom Code Limitations: This limitation can be a drawback for developers looking for more advanced automation capabilities. Error Messaging: Some error messages can be vague or difficult to interpret, hindering troubleshooting.
  • Some apps are missing. I don't really see something else in Cons.
  • There is still room for more connected apps. No other cons.
  • No cons that I can think of. It is constantly evolving and more integrations are added every month.
