Enterprise customers can use their own SSO implementation, so access to the new platform follows your identity rules from the first day.
Source: make.com/securityMigrate from Zapier to Make
Zapier is easy to start with. When Zaps grow branches, loops and data clean-up, teams move them to Make, where every step, route and bundle of data is visible on one canvas.
Why teams move from Zapier to Make
Complex flows read better: routers, iterators and aggregators are built into Make, so branching and looping are not workarounds.
You see the data: every run shows what each module received and returned, which makes debugging long flows faster.
Pricing models differ: Zapier counts tasks, Make counts operations. Which costs less depends on the workflow, so we estimate both for your busiest Zaps first.
Enterprise controls: Make Enterprise adds your own single sign-on, teams and roles, longer log storage and support terms, as Make lists them.
Zapier concepts in Make
What each part of a Zapier workflow becomes when it is rebuilt as a Make scenario.
| Zap | Scenario |
|---|---|
| Trigger step | Trigger module (instant through a webhook, or polling on a schedule) |
| Action step | Module |
| Filter | Filter on the link between two modules |
| Paths | Router, with a filter on each route |
| Formatter by Zapier | Make's built-in functions in the mapping panel (text, date, math, arrays) |
| Looping by Zapier | Iterator, then an aggregator to collect the results |
| Storage by Zapier and Zapier Tables | Data stores, with a data structure for each |
| Webhooks by Zapier | Webhooks module (custom webhook) and the HTTP module |
| Code by Zapier | Built-in functions, custom functions on Enterprise, or a call to your own endpoint |
| Delay by Zapier | Scheduling, or the sleep tool for short waits |
| Sub-Zaps | A separate scenario called through a webhook |
| Task history | Scenario history, with the data of every run |
| Task | Operation (billed in credits) |
How the move runs
The same stages, in this order. We give a written plan and scope after the inventory.
- 1Inventory what runs today
Every workflow, its owner, its trigger, the apps it touches, how often it runs and when it last ran. Anything that has not run in months is a candidate to retire, not migrate.
- 2Map concepts and connections
Each step is matched to a Make module. Apps without a Make module get an HTTP call or a custom app. Credentials are re-created as Make connections owned by service accounts, not people.
- 3Set up Make Enterprise
Organization, teams and roles, single sign-on, folders and naming, error-handling standards, data stores and data structures, decided before the first scenario is built.
- 4Rebuild and test side by side
Scenarios are rebuilt in priority order and run against test data. Outputs are compared with the old platform's for the same inputs until they match.
- 5Cut over in waves
Triggers move a group at a time: webhook senders are pointed at Make, polling triggers start from the right record, and the old workflow is switched off, not deleted, until the Make scenario has run cleanly.
- 6Retire and hand over
The old workflows are archived and the source account closed. Each scenario is documented in plain language, and your builders are trained on Make.
What to watch when leaving Zapier
- Webhook URLs change: every system that calls the old platform has to be pointed at the new Make webhook.
- Polling triggers need a starting point, or the first Make run can pick up records the old platform already handled.
- OAuth connections are re-authorised in Make by someone who owns each account; passwords and tokens are never copied across.
- Usage is counted differently: estimate the operations each scenario will use (loops and iterators multiply them) before cutover.
- Zaps with many paths often become one scenario with a router; Zaps that only chain two apps may be retired in favour of a native integration.
Make Enterprise features that help this move
As Make publishes them; the source is named on each card.
Roles and teams are managed inside the organization, so each migrated scenario has an owning team and only that team can change it.
Source: make.com/securityLog data is kept for 30 days by default, and the Enterprise Plan offers longer storage: useful when an audit asks what a scenario did.
Source: make.com/securityEnterprise Plan customers get 99.5% cloud service uptime and Enterprise support with defined SLAs.
Source: make.com/securityFrequently asked questions
Can Zaps be imported into Make automatically?
We do not rely on an automatic converter. We inventory the Zaps and rebuild each one as a scenario. A Zap's steps map closely to Make modules, so most rebuilds are direct.
Will our apps be on Make?
Most are: Make has thousands of app integrations and an HTTP module for any API. The inventory checks every app and the exact trigger or action you use before anything is rebuilt.
Will Make cost more or less than Zapier?
It depends on the workflow. Zapier counts tasks and Make counts operations, so a flow with loops or many steps can come out differently on each. We estimate operations for your busiest scenarios before you commit.
