The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Integromat the free plan enforces a 15 minute minimum interval between runs, so nothing near real time is possible without paying; Nango the licence is Elastic License 2.0, which is source available rather than OSI open source, and it forbids offering Nango to third parties as a managed service, so anyone planning to resell or embed it in a platform for their own customers has a genuine legal problem.
  • They diverge on capability: Integromat covers Visual workflow builder, Nango covers Managed OAuth.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Nango

  • A SaaS product that needs to ship twenty customer-facing integrations without hiring a team to maintain OAuth and token refresh for eachnot Integromat
  • A team that needs a niche or internal API integrated, which closed unified API vendors will not build for themnot Integromat
  • A company with data residency or security constraints that must self-host the integration layer rather than send customer tokens to a vendornot Integromat
  • An engineering team replacing a homegrown integration service whose main cost is silent token expiry and rate limit failures in productionnot Integromat

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

Nango

  • The licence is Elastic License 2.0, which is source available rather than OSI open source, and it forbids offering Nango to third parties as a managed service, so anyone planning to resell or embed it in a platform for their own customers has a genuine legal problem.
  • Pricing is per connection where a connection is one authorised end-user account, so cost scales linearly with your customer base and a product where each user links several services multiplies quickly beyond what a headline plan price suggests.
  • Pre-built integrations vary in depth, and a connection that exists is not the same as a connection that covers the endpoints and objects your feature needs, so each one must be verified before it is designed into a roadmap.
  • Custom syncs are written in TypeScript and run in Nango model, which means integration logic lives in a vendor runtime and migrating away later requires rewriting it rather than lifting it out.
  • Self-hosting removes the vendor from the data path but transfers operational responsibility for a component that holds customer OAuth tokens, and few teams appreciate the security burden that comes with running that themselves.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Integromat: What is the free tier for Make?

Make's free tier provides 1,000 credits monthly, access to 3,000+ apps, a basic no-code workflow builder, and a 15-minute minimum interval between scenario runs.

Source
Nango: Is Nango open source?

It is source available under Elastic License 2.0. You can read, modify and self-host it, but you cannot offer it to third parties as a managed service. That is not the same as an OSI approved open source licence.

Integromat: Can I save money with annual billing on Make?

Yes, Make offers 15% or more savings when paying annually instead of monthly billing.

Source
Nango: How is it priced?

Per connection per month, where a connection is one authorised end-user account. Free to 10 connections, 50 dollars a month for Starter with 20, 500 for Growth with 100, and one dollar per additional connection.

Integromat: How does Make's credit system work?

Each module action in Make consumes credits, with most basic actions using one credit per execution. Credits expire monthly for monthly plans or annually for yearly subscriptions.

Source
Nango: Can we integrate an API Nango does not support?

Yes. Custom syncs and actions in TypeScript cover any API including internal ones, which is the main advantage over closed unified API products.

Nango: Can we self-host it?

Yes, under the Elastic License 2.0 terms, which permit self-hosting for your own use but not resale as a service.
