Make Migration in Durham

Migrating automations to Make for Durham organisations, where the triggers rarely translate directly. What ran instantly on the old platform may poll here, what polled every five minutes may have a different minimum, and each difference changes both how quickly things happen and what the month costs.

Why this comes up

The problem

An automation that fired instantly now polls every fifteen minutes and the delay is affecting customers.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Trigger types compared per automation, since instant and polling differ materially
  • Webhooks used where the source supports them and latency matters
  • Polling intervals set against genuine need rather than the shortest available
  • Consumption modelled, because scheduling drives cost more than logic does
  • Scenarios rebuilt around routers and iterators instead of copied step by step
  • Both platforms run briefly in parallel with only one active per process

Make Migration in Durham — common questions

Why do triggers matter so much?
Because they decide both latency and cost. A scenario polling every minute consumes operations whether or not anything happened, while one waiting for a webhook consumes nothing until it does — so the trigger choice affects the bill more than the logic inside.
Can everything use webhooks?
Only where the source system sends them. Many applications do, some do not, and for those the question becomes how stale the data may be — which is a business answer rather than a technical one, and usually longer than the instinct suggests.
How should polling intervals be set?
From what the process actually requires. Checking for new orders every minute when they are dispatched twice a day is paying continuously for currency nobody uses, and stretching the interval is the simplest saving available on most estates.
Should scenarios be rebuilt or copied?
Rebuilt, taking advantage of the model. Make handles branching and list processing natively, so automations that were split into several on a linear platform frequently collapse into one — which is both cheaper and considerably easier to maintain.
Do you work with businesses across County Durham?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North East, including Durham and the surrounding County Durham area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Durham businesses do you usually work with?
Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Tourism & Heritage, Public Sector, Retail and Research.
Do you cover the areas around Durham?
Yes — we work throughout North East, including Newcastle, Sunderland, York. Durham is an urban area of roughly 70,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Durham region rather than the city boundary alone.
