If you're managing large-scale projects, having a robust project management system is a game changer. But what's even better? Integrating that system with Make.com (formerly Integromat), a powerful automation tool that simplifies workflows and boosts productivity. Let’s dive into how you can hook up Make.com with your favorite project management tools.
First things first, you need a Make.com account. If you haven’t already signed up, head over to the Make.com website and register. The free version has enough features to get you started, but if you're dealing with complex enterprise workflows, consider a premium plan.
