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
Parabola
- The Basic plan allows 1 user and 1,000 credits with limited AI
- No price is published for either the self serve or the business tier
- Credits are consumed when agents run, and further credits are bought pay as you go
- Role based access control, SSO, version history and SLAs all sit on the unpriced business plan
