Why SMEs switch from Make to a custom no-code solution

Most SME migrations take four to eight weeks. We begin with a two-hour discovery workshop to map your current Make scenarios, identify pain points, and prioritise workflows. During weeks one to three, we rebuild core automations on Ksaar, often adding custom logic that was impossible in Make. Week four is reserved for user acceptance testing and training. Parallel running—where both Make and Ksaar operate side by side—typically lasts one to two weeks, so you switch over with zero downtime.

A custom Ksaar build for an SME with ten to fifteen workflows costs between €8,000 and €15,000 upfront, plus €50–150 per month for hosting and maintenance. By contrast, Make's Team plan starts at €29 per user per month, and operation bundles add another €200–400 monthly at scale. Over two years, Make totals €10,000–20,000 in subscriptions alone, with no assets you own. Ksaar delivers a bespoke platform you control, often breaking even within twelve to eighteen months and delivering ongoing savings thereafter.

Absolutely. We recommend a phased approach: migrate your most critical or cost-intensive scenarios first, leaving simpler automations on Make during the transition. Ksaar can call Make webhooks if needed, so hybrid operation is seamless. Once you confirm the custom solution meets your needs and team adoption is smooth, we migrate the remaining workflows. This staged rollout reduces risk and lets your team build confidence in the new platform step by step.
