Ich habe fast alle meine Zaps von Zapier ohne Probleme migriert. Die Preisgestaltung ist wirklich erstaunlich und viel günstiger als bei wichtigen Wettbewerbern. Sie erlauben es sogar, mehrere Gmail-Konten mit einem Workflow zu verbinden, was bei n8n eine einschränkende Bedingung ist.
We couldn't access specific review snippets from Trustpilot or Capterra due to security blocks, but we know these platforms host user feedback on Vanta.
