What Make does
Make (formerly Integromat) is a visual, node-based automation builder connecting 3,000+ apps via "scenarios" with routers, filters and iterators. It targets technically-inclined ops/marketing users who want more granular control over data flow than Zapier offers.
What you get: Visual scenario/data-mapping builder, 3,000+ app integrations, Routers, filters, iterators/aggregators, Custom functions (paid tiers), Make API.
Typical jobs: Multi-branch marketing ops automations; E-commerce order/inventory sync across systems; Complex data transformation pipelines between SaaS tools.
Worth knowing: Founded as Integromat (Czech Republic), rebranded to Make in 2022 after being acquired by Celonis; exact original founding year could not be confirmed from an accessible primary source at verification time, left null rather than guessed.
What users complain about: "the platform's UI latency is a constant bottleneck" and "mapping data through native modules and filters is buggy" (https://www.trustpilot.com/review/make.com)

Where it wins
- Per-operation billing is generally more forgiving than Zapier's per-task model for multi-step scenarios
- Visual data-mapper gives finer control over branching/looping logic than most no-code competitors
- Annual billing knocks 15%+ off list price
Where it falls short
- UI performance is repeatedly flagged as slow, one reviewer called it "the slowest service I use"
- Steep learning curve for complex scenarios; users report needing "days" to configure workflows that look simple on paper
- Customer support is hard to reach; reviewers describe being redirected to an "outdated wiki" instead of a human
