Inventory and usage
We list every Zap or scenario with its trigger, apps, steps, credential owner and usage, and flag the dead workflows, the duplicates and the critical ones.

Zapier or Make to n8n migration, tested side by side
If your Zapier or Make bill grows with every step you add, it's worth running the numbers on n8n. We migrate methodically: inventory, rebuild, cutover.
A Zapier or Make to n8n migration means cataloging your workflows, rebuilding them in n8n and running them alongside the originals before anything is switched off. We handle the whole process remotely for companies that already automate and want control over their cost per execution. You can start with a 7-day trial in which we migrate one representative workflow.
What the migration includes
Rebuilding in n8n
We redesign each workflow around the way n8n works, processing lists of items natively, instead of copying it step by step. Apps without a dedicated node connect through the HTTP Request node.
Testing and cutover
Each new workflow runs in parallel with the original against test destinations. Once the outputs match, we switch the webhooks and pause the original, which we keep as a fallback.
Common equivalents between Zapier, Make and n8n
Not everything maps one to one; these pairings come up most often.
Logic and control
- Paths by Zapier and the Make Router: If and Switch nodes
- Filters: the Filter node
- Delay by Zapier: the Wait node
- Schedules: the Schedule Trigger node
- Make error handlers: Error Trigger plus per-node retries
Data and transformation
- Formatter by Zapier and Make functions: Edit Fields, Date & Time or expressions
- Make iterators and aggregators: Split Out, Aggregate or Loop Over Items
- Code by Zapier: the Code node in JavaScript or Python
- Storage by Zapier or Make data stores: a database table, in Postgres for example
How we work, phase by phase
From inventory to cutover
- Account access and export of what's available, such as Make blueprints in JSON
- Prioritized inventory and a cost estimate on n8n Cloud or a VPS
- Rebuild in batches, starting with the highest-usage workflows
- Parallel tests with real cases and edge cases
- Planned cutover and close monitoring of the first executions
When migrating pays off, and when it doesn't
It pays off if
- Your workflows have many steps and you pay for each one
- Volume drives your usage up before the month ends
- You need code or API calls that your current plan makes awkward
Better not to migrate if
- You have a few simple, inexpensive workflows
- You rely on Zapier Tables or Interfaces and replacing them would add complexity
- An app only connects through a private integration with no public API
What you get
Deliverables
Workflows run on a server you pay for, n8n Cloud or your own VPS, included in the quote from day one.
- Inventory with the priority, usage and owner of each workflow
- Documented workflows in your n8n instance
- Error workflow with email or Slack alerts
- Side-by-side test report
- Cutover and rollback plan
Start with a 7-day trial
One workflow, migrated and validated
We pick with you the highest-usage or most critical workflow and rebuild it in n8n. During the trial it runs alongside the original and we compare results execution by execution. If it holds up, we move on to the rest of the inventory. Scope, dates and terms are put in writing before we start.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to pause my automations during the migration?
No. Your original workflows stay active while we build and test the new ones. The cutover comes once the outputs match: webhook URLs are updated and the old Zap or scenario is paused, not deleted, in case you need to roll back during the first executions.
How much will I save with n8n?
It depends on your usage, so we don't quote a number up front. Zapier counts a task for every completed action and Make bills for what its modules consume; n8n Cloud counts full workflow executions and, on your own VPS with the Community edition, you pay for the server rather than per execution. The inventory compares the options using your data.
Can credentials and execution history be exported?
Credentials can't: every connection is re-authorized in n8n, and we use that step to move it under a company account instead of an employee's. Execution history doesn't carry over either; if you need it, we check what your plan lets you export before the cutover.
What about apps that don't have an n8n node?
If the app has a public API, we connect it with the HTTP Request node or a vetted community node. If it only works in Zapier or Make through a private integration, we flag it in the inventory and look for an alternative: exports, a different app or leaving that workflow where it is.
