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.

Automates tasks and manages multiple servers from a central location
The initial setup was quite complex. It required careful preparation of installation steps, as many tasks were not automated as expected. Special attention was needed to prepare groups, users, and permissions at each step to ensure a smooth setup process. Please do so accurately to avoid having to start over. Challenges encountered during deployment included issues with installation and configuration and difficulties detecting machines and executing tasks as expected. Some solutions were found through trial and error during installation, while others were discovered through recommendations from other users. Despite these challenges, the deployment and rollout of Orchestrator took approximately one and a half months to ensure proper functionality.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This means the task that I would complete in a span of one day is completed in a matter of minutes by using Make."
"Make has positively impacted my organization by helping me save around 10 plus hours per month to automate reporting and social media posting."
"Make has positively impacted my organization by reducing our manual workflow and workload by almost twenty to thirty percent, which I feel is great."
"Make has helped me save my time, and time is money, so obviously, eventually it has helped me save my money as well."
"Every employee used to work manually, and I also used to do manual tasks, now Make does everything automatically."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"Automation is the most valuable feature of the solution."
"It can manage multiple servers and workstations from a single location."
 

Cons

"Make can be improved in terms of the code module, as sometimes I use it at a developer level, and I want it to be more specific; when using the webhook, some data structures may require a lot of time to organize, so if a code node is available, it would help me structure data effectively."
"There is a file size constraint, as when I try to upload a PDF question bank of 200 pages, it shows an error and the file cannot process the data."
"I give Make a rating of seven because it is not open-sourced and there are many hidden charges, which can affect a beginner's workflow when trying it out."
"Pricing is definitely something that is on a higher tier where we are consuming around 1.5 to 2 million operations per month, which makes the bill quite substantial."
"Make has helped me save time positively, but I think there is room for improvement in Make as well."
"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."
"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."
"The product's management aspect needs enhancement."
"I find the Orchestrator UI to be problematic."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Make is approximately $20 per month for the platform."
"I give the cost of the solution a five out of ten."
"We obtained a license that bundled Windows Server with System Center at no additional cost."
