Standout Differences
The fastest path to a working automation
Integrately's more than 20 million one-click, pre-built templates activate common app pairings with minimal configuration, cutting out the manual trigger-and-action setup Make and n8n both require.
Integrately
Visual branching for complex, multi-path scenarios
Make's routers, filters, and more than 3,000 app connectors give it flowchart-style power for workflows that need conditional branching beyond what Integrately's template library targets.
Make
Self-hosted and code-first for technical teams
n8n is the only one of the three offering a free, self-hostable Community Edition with unlimited executions plus native JavaScript and Python code nodes.
n8n
Pricing models differ as much as the feature sets
Integrately bills by tasks, Make bills by operations consumed per module execution, and n8n Cloud bills by completed workflow executions rather than individual steps, so the same workflow can cost very different amounts depending on the platform.
