Rusira Sathnindu - PeerSpot reviewer
Automation Engineer at a tech services company with 1-10 employees
AI coding has accelerated our feature delivery and has transformed how our team builds services
I have been noticing recently that Cursor introduced their own model, which is pretty limited; it is very fast, but it is not smart. They might have to improve that, along with the agent selection methodology. When you select auto, you expect it to use the best agent possible and think of the money savings, but it does not always work as expected, sometimes providing bad code or code that has bugs. I think the auto mode selection can improve. Another concern is the pricing; we have been paying a lot for Cursor recently, which I feel has increased within the last few months, possibly due to our usage going up. We are paying an amount similar to a developer's salary for Cursor now. I believe all the needed improvements are primarily around the auto agent selection mode and pricing. If they could be more transparent about it, that would be appreciated. We only see the bill at the end of the month, and it is often a high amount, so transparency in the pricing would be very helpful for us as developers.

Automation workflows have saved time and have reduced manual work for my client projects
Most of what I learned about Make is mainly from the templates only. Anything that I tried to do, I try to see who has done it already and try to understand and rebuild it. When I'm trying to build some workflows, there's a chatbot component. When I ask for something, it helps me in that. Or if I get a bug that I'm finding difficult to debug or understand the use case or the log, it clearly explains it to me and sometimes it advises me to do certain things, so that it's easy for me to fix it. One area for improvement is an auto-building feature. Another is how n8n has a chatbot completion where you can bring some LLMs into the workflow and integrating Ollama and all of that is something I felt is really needed for Make also.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Cursor positively impacts my organization by providing great feasibility and better reliability, enabling faster development processes."
"Previously, tasks that would take weeks or months can now be completed within days because of these AI tools."
"The most valuable features of Make are the additional options when compared to other similar solutions. For example, with Google my business, you can only do certain things with Zapier, whereas with Make, you can do a little bit more."
"Make has positively impacted my organization by enabling us to solve use cases for hundreds of clients across hundreds of different platforms, providing the customization capabilities to automate accounting and invoicing processes that save dozens of man-hours a month, and allowing us to build custom churn, retention, and engagement costs that have driven a 30% reduction in churn."
"This has made a very positive impact on my life because initially I was not able to do things quickly and efficiently, but now with the help of Make, I can plan many things that help my work become efficient."
"I am using Make for content creation, and it saves time in content creation for me and helps with tasks by creating content for me even without writing a single word."
"Make saves me roughly forty-five percent to sixty percent of time since the analysis part and solution are provided below the question."
"Make has positively impacted my organization by enabling me to generate numerous leads because it is easy to implement, which allowed me to drastically reduce the time needed to create and present a minimum viable product to clients."
"Make's front-end interface, the modular interface that it has, drag-and-drop interface, is very easy to understand, use, and integrate."
"Make has positively impacted my organization by reducing the number of hours that go into validating and verifying the flow of a particular repetitive process, which would otherwise take multiple hours, to just a few minutes to review for more than 1,000 or 2,000 case scenarios."
 

Cons

"Another concern is the pricing; we have been paying a lot for Cursor recently, which I feel has increased within the last few months, possibly due to our usage going up."
"Sometimes Cursor does get stuck, which should be addressed, though the UI remains very good."
"The pricing of Make at this point is through operations consumption, and it becomes really expensive in certain scenarios when iterations are involved."
"One area that needs improvement is the debugging and monitoring."
"I was talking about dark mode because it feels irritating when working in dark places."
"Actually, I did not finish this project with Make; I could not manage to finish the full workflow, and I decided to leave it as it is, implementing it a different way because it is very tricky."
"I feel that Make can be improved in terms of API handling and integrations."
"There is still a lot of difference when it comes to how the credits come into use and how to monetize what is being offered by Make."
"Make has helped me save time positively, but I think there is room for improvement in Make as well."
"I chose a nine out of ten because sometimes my browser gets crashed while working on Make, and I do not know why."
