Seamless Integration Across Applications
Make.com comes pre-installed with a wide variety of applications, including popular Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems and various other essential tools.

This means you can easily integrate your custom CRM or specialized business applications into your automation workflows.
Easy Scenario Creation
Setting up automation scenarios is straightforward with Make.com. Let’s consider a practical example:

- Integrate Google Sheets with Gmail.
- Define the automation scenario clearly within Make.com.
- Activate the scenario with a simple click, instantly automating data entry and email notifications.
In practice, when new data is entered into the Google Sheet—such as a lead named Mansi—the system automatically sends a personalized email without manual intervention.
