Tell me more about the course! 🔥
Why is Make.com better than other automation tools? Curious to know!
Hey Seth! I personally like it because it’s very visual, each automation step represents a module in the automation.
I’ve used Zapier in the past, which is maybe a bit easier for beginners because it holds your hand while creating the automation, but you quickly loose the overview if your automation involves more steps.
I think the video tutorial is a great start!
Glad you think so!
Why’s Make.com so confusing?!
Hey Erik! I know it might feel a bit overwhelming at first, but once you get the hang of it, it’ll make sense. If you need any help, just let me know!
Great intro! But maybe add more examples on how to use specific modules in Make.com?
Hmm, do u think Make.com could work better for small teams or solo projects tho?
Hey Juan! I think it’s great for both.
I’m using it solo, but there is also a possibility to add team members 🙃
Interesting intro, Max! I’m curious though, does Make.com integrate well with smaller tools? I’ve had issues with similar platforms being too limited. Looking forward to testing it!
I really depends on the tool, but even if there is no native module for the tool you want to connect, you can use the HTTP Module to connect to it directly if it has an API.
Is the video mainly about the basics of Make.com or does it go into advanced stuff too?
It’s mostly for beginners but with a few sprinkles of advanced stuff. Watch my more advanced tutorials if you want to dive deeper 🤗
Hey Max, great intro to Make.com! Quick question though—when you mentioned ‘operations’ in the video, does that mean every single action counts towards the 10K limit? Like even testing stuff? Just trying to figure out how to plan usage better. Thanks!
Yes, that’s exactly right. Every action counts towards the scenario limit of your plan, even when you’re just testing things.
The video is helpful, but cud you clarify how ‘operations’ are counted on Make.com?
Basically, every time a ‘task’ is performed by a module, it counts as one operation 🙃
So if you have a scenario with 4 modules that do something, and you run it a 1000 times, you’ve used 4000 operations.
Hoping this will make things clearer for me, been a bit confusing so far!
Hope it will help Luis! 😄
Oh wow, this is super helpful! Been struggling w Make.com for ages.
Hey Agate! Happy to hear this helped! 😄
