We use both tools in real Indian client projects. Here's our honest comparison — and which we recommend for your situation.
For most Indian business clients we serve — we use n8n for its flexibility, AI integration capabilities, and free self-hosted option. We use Make for simpler business automation where the client's team needs to manage workflows themselves.
n8n is an open-source, self-hostable workflow automation tool with exceptional flexibility for building complex AI-powered automations. It supports custom JavaScript code, has native AI/LLM nodes, and can be deployed on your own server for complete data control.
Make (formerly Integromat) is a cloud-based visual automation platform with an intuitive interface that non-technical users can operate. It has 1,000+ app integrations and handles most common business automation needs without any coding.
