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.

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

"Make has positively impacted my organization by helping me save around 10 plus hours per month to automate reporting and social media posting."
"The new AI feature that Make has launched is really amazing."
"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 reducing our manual workflow and workload by almost twenty to thirty percent, which I feel is great."
"Instead of spending several days implementing and testing API integrations inside our FastAPI back end, I was able to build the workflows in a few hours using Make."
"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."
"Make's front-end interface, the modular interface that it has, drag-and-drop interface, is very easy to understand, use, and integrate."
"The best features Make offers include its very visual interface, which stands out for me."
"What I find the most valuable about Oracle BPEL is that it saves me time."
"The most valuable feature is the support for human tasks."
"The product has everything we need."
"The solution is very seamless and fast."
 

Cons

"I feel that Make can be improved in terms of API handling and integrations."
"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."
"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."
"I was talking about dark mode because it feels irritating when working in dark places."
"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."
"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."
"The pricing of Make at this point is through operations consumption, and it becomes really expensive in certain scenarios when iterations are involved."
"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 solution's integration with SAP should be seamless because some formats are not accepted in SAP but are accepted in Oracle BPEL."
"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."
"Some user-defined functions for transformation must be added to the next release of the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Make is approximately $20 per month for the platform."
"The product is moderately priced."
"The solution's pricing is moderate and not expensive."
