Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Integromat

  • The free plan enforces a 15 minute minimum interval between runs, so nothing near real time is possible without paying
  • Free is limited to 2 active scenarios, a 5 MB file size and 7 days of execution logs
  • Billing is per credit where each module action counts as one, so a scenario with many steps consumes credits far faster than its run count suggests
  • Make API access requires a paid plan
  • Priority execution and full text log search are Pro features
  • Overage protection is Enterprise only, so cheaper plans can run up charges

Grouparoo

  • Standard Cloud plan is metered by records synced rather than users, starting at $150/month for 100K records and rising to $600/month for 1M records
  • Grouparoo has been acquired by Airbyte, per the vendor: "Grouparoo has been acquired by Airbyte"
