An affordable cloud solution for automation and data manipulation

Make has a single IP. We cannot use a single IP because of the security. There are a lot of crashes when you work manually. Also, they need to provide more models. When you have an error, Make should inform them with guidance before you make the mistake. There is a lot of data you can confuse.

Support for human tasks despite challenges with protocols and adapters

It depends on your needs. Oracle BPEL is suitable for enterprise-wide systems. However, if you're building something smaller or don't know precisely what you need, it's better to start with something smaller. Oracle is a comprehensive bundle, and buying it exclusively for Oracle BPEL doesn't make sense. I'd rate the solution six out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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's front-end interface, the modular interface that it has, drag-and-drop interface, is very easy to understand, use, and integrate."

"Make saves a lot of time, and I have created really complex scenarios in Make."

"The solution is very seamless and fast."

"The most valuable feature is the support for human tasks."

"The product has everything we need."

"What I find the most valuable about Oracle BPEL is that it saves me time."

Cons

"The pricing of Make at this point is through operations consumption, and it becomes really expensive in certain scenarios when iterations are involved."

"Make can be a bit difficult to use for new users, but for someone with technical knowledge and some coding skills, it becomes manageable, especially with Make's great UI features that really help."

"Make could improve the ease of use, it can be more complicated than other solutions. There are a lot of elements that are more technical than in other solutions."

"They need to have support for new protocols like GraphQL and possibly some out-of-the-box adapters for SAP and other big systems."

"In the next release, I would like to see REST improved and new technologies for microservices. I'd like to see more containers for separating containers."

"The solution's integration with SAP should be seamless because some formats are not accepted in SAP but are accepted in Oracle BPEL."

"Some user-defined functions for transformation must be added to the next release of the solution."

Pricing and Cost Advice
