Considered Both Products
Make
Chose Make
When we started using Make, it was more affordable than Integromat. That pricing gap has closed somewhat now. We much prefer the left-to-right flow of Make to the top-to-bottom flow of Zapier, and custom connections are more difficult to achieve in Zapier than in Make - Make's …
Chose Make
Make and Activepieces are the best of the bunch for usability. Where Make falls down is the number of integrations OR the number of popular software tools that they integrate with. You've got your standards on all platforms, but new tools are coming every day and the team will …
Chose Make
Integromat allows us to do everything we used to do on Zapier but it doesn't limit us to only the popular apps, with Integromat we're integrating custom APIs and we get data from different servers through GET requests and it's exactly what we needed and Zapier couldn't provide …
Chose Make
Integromat is superior to both Zapier and OneSaas in terms of the customization options. Honestly, it isn't even a comparison. Those tools are both more appropriate for a 'non-data' user who is just looking for a plug-and-play solution without any customization or coding, but I …
Chose Make
Integromat has a different pricing schema than Zapier. Almost all the zaps that you create on Integramat can be done in Zapier. The only difference is that Integromat is more accessible in terms of money. In my opinion, Zapier is for bigger companies since the prices they …
IFTTT
Chose IFTTT
Less programmatic capabilities, somewhat simpler design interface. More sophisticated events supported per task. Ultimately, the kinds of tasks that need automation are simple, and a simple/easily maintainable user interface ensures no more time than is needed is spent on this …
Chose IFTTT
Zapier is always trying to feed me information I don't want, whereas IFTTT has a clean, easy to use website.
Microsoft Flow is time-consuming to set up, IFTTT isn't. In my line of work, time is very important. I need to do the work and get it done.
Automate doesn't offer the …
Chose IFTTT
I initially was using Zapier for some of my simple integrations but started using IFTTT for some of our project work as it allowed me to do logical connections between applications. While it's great in some areas, it can be improved upon to allow for more deep configurations.
Chose IFTTT
We have used Microsoft Flow, Stringify and IFTTT for various solutions. Stringify is no longer an option as it was shut down. We have found that IFTTT and Flow both have their place and in some places working together for the same task. We have found there is no one …
Chose IFTTT
On inspection, it did not seem as simple to use. In fairness I was very happy with IFTTT and did not spend much time looking into Zapier
Chose IFTTT
IFTTT is free and easy to use, where Zapier has a freemium business model. We actually use both platforms for different things. I prefer Zapier for more complicated connections, where IFTTT allows us to have more connections without the added fee. Additionally, IFTTT allows us …
Chose IFTTT
As IFTTT, Zapier also helps users to connect apps and services, but it seems more directed to the corporative world. While IFTTT provides support for home devices (as lighting and security systems) and voice assistants (Alexa, Cortana, Google Assistant, and Siri), Zapier …
Chose IFTTT
IFTTT has worked better for us than Hootsuite because we utilize it spur of the moment and only have to post to one platform. Once that post is done IFTTT does the rest and we're good to go. Using the native social media apps and software has allowed us to schedule posts in a …
Chose IFTTT
Honestly I use both, since Zapier is a bit more robust. However, IFTTT is much easier to use and configure. It is much more friendly.
Chose IFTTT
I am using both but for different uses. DLVR.IT seems to be opimized for social media sharing only, whereas that is only a small part of what IFTTT does.
Chose IFTTT
Compared to Buffer, IFTTT has a far greater reach and scope, across numerous Social and off-site platforms. If you work in SEO, Content, or marketing in general, marrying IFTTT with Buffer will provide functionality you otherwise pay for.
Chose IFTTT
Office 365 has a program called Flow that functions similar to IFTTT, however, IFTTT has more integrations with 3rd parties and Flow has problems with getting triggers to go off properly. Unless there were some corporate requirement to utilize Flow only or limit integrations, I …
Chose IFTTT
I haven't used Zapier extensively, but it seems that IFTTT is much simpler to set up. However, Zapier appears to be a much deeper integration where you can sync a variety of fields of data and customize the sync more than you can with IFTTT. Zapier may be more valuable for …
Chose IFTTT
In my mind, the only real competitor to IFTTT is Zapier. Zapier is great because of the amount of SaaS tools that it has, but Zapier fails in the ease of use category. Zapier's website is slow, and the integrations can be confusing to set up. IFTTT is simple, easy to use.
Chose IFTTT
IFTTT has more "end user" connections that Zapier thus making it more for users and less for power-users.
Chose IFTTT
In the past, I have run scripting on a Linux server to provide some level of integration of some of the smart devices in the workspace. This had always been cludgy and at times unreliable as it oftentimes fell victim to idiosyncrasies in the devices being controlled. IFTTT …
Chose IFTTT
These products are not really the same. While I use a three to track mentions, competitors, and keywords, IFTTT provides the ground for automation.
Chose IFTTT
Actually, I have not used any other programs or services similar to IFTTT as of yet.
Chose IFTTT
Zapier is a more in-depth if-then statement builder with way more detailed integrations to hundreds of applications as well as different tasks that can get implemented within your if then, then that statements. Way cooler and there are certification options that help you get to …
Chose IFTTT
While other paid services might give your a little extra features and possibly a connectivity with enterprise application, it's nearly impossible to beat IFTTT with the cost factor, ease of use, hundreds of channels and a great community of users.
Chose IFTTT
IFTTT has the most integrations, the least bug recipes and it is the cheapest alternative. IFTTT has also been in the game for years. Automation for the people! You cannot get the kind if ideas from any other integration site, and many are missing key apps like Instagram or …
Chose IFTTT
Truthfully I use both of these products. IFTTT is a very robust app but it does not get any where near as robust as Zapier. But although Zapier is more robust, for simpler tasks IFTTT is not only easier to set up, but gets the job done just as well. And now that IFTTT is …
Chose IFTTT
IFTTT is great for personal, home-life use, as it targets social media, personal email preferences, and home-automation devices. Zapier is much more business-oriented and does not provide integrations with Amazon Alexa or WeMo home devices.

IFTTT is a great tool for people wishing to integrate different productivity tools, but who lack the resources and/or knowledge about programming these connections themselves. Anyone who uses at least email, calendar and social networks on a regular basis can benefit from IFTTT. However, it probably won't be appropriate and/or relevant to casual users, or users inexperienced with the many possible links between smartphones and online apps.

Pros
  • The ability to integrate with any API
  • The drag and the drop builder makes the process of automating tasks easier
  • Rich library of the most used apps
Read full review
  • Their UX and UI for creating recipes is brilliant. So easy to use and very well thought out.
  • I love that you can search for recipes other users have created and implement those if you choose to do so. It saved me so much time vs. having to figure certain recipes on my own.
  • Their notification and syncing options are spot on. I love how much I can customize what I want to see. Their variety of apps is also phenomenal and I love that they're adding new integrations/apps every week.

Cons
  • Better navigational capabilities from scenarios
  • Better use of AI or prompting for complex things like iterators/aggregators
  • A "test mode" so that you don't have a ton of runs that are invalid or to be able to populate dummy data without wasting unnecessary operations to create it.

  • It would be nice if there were more business software platforms on IFTTT, but I think that will come with time.
  • I wish the site had an area to search pre-built integrations based on category or need.
  • There really aren't too many cons to using IFTTT, the service gets better all the time and continues to grow almost daily.

At this point, it is firmly embedded in the DNA of the business and to give up the ability to automate workflows and create integrations on the fly would be a terrible idea.

There is no better alternative and although Integromat is new and the GUI is slick, they make you pay per push and IFTTT does not. The rest of the competition make you pay per integration or are just not as seamless in usage or have the depth of catalogue. If you use Zapier for instance, it is because they have an integration you have to use, not because Zapier does a better job.

Usability
I think it is the easiest workflow tool that I have ever used. Drag and drop works perfectly, helping less computer friendly users to simplify and nest their workflows. Managers without IT experience are now dealing separately with most of issues on their own. Handover of tasks and workflows is also easier as it is possible to comment and explain everything inside one.

For the most part, IFTTT is great but it does have its limitations. You may only do one thing at a time. If you want branching logic it can be cumbersome and clunky. This it where something like Microsoft Flow does better. For simplicity, nothing can beat IFTTT for how easy it is to set up and use right out of the box

The pricing schema is very attractive, almost 50% lower than the competition. You could start from free and then grow. It has a pretty big library of connections to other apps and services, which really helps you when everything is a mess. Integromat has a really easy-to-use interface. You could do almost everything with fewer than 5 clicks. Scenarios (automation steps to complete a routine) have graphics so you can configure them more easily.

I have had a few issues with apps over the years. Compared to other services, ITFFF is the best choice but no service is perfect unless you build it yourself for yourself. ITFFF needs more tutorials on how to create a custom platform, but overall I will recommend it as an easy to use, time-saving service.

Return on Investment
  • Enabled us to solve use cases for hundreds of clients and hundreds of different platforms
  • Provided the customization capabilities to automate accounting/invoicing processes that save dozens of man-hours a month
  • Allowed us to build custom churn/retention/engagement scores that have driven a 20% reduction in churn

  • IFTTT was a free program for us and has worked wonders.
  • The time that it saves us when it posts across platforms is great because we only have to post one picture and caption and it goes out to all of our social media accounts.
  • IFTTT has definitely helped us to communicate more and in better ways.
