Activepieces Reviews

The AppSumo plans are laughable. Useless.

Active Pieces did not comply with the terms of the lifetime agreement and did not correctly map to the new subscription plans.

Those who purchased a lifetime agreement now have the equivalent of a free subscription plan.
Active Pieces deceived its founding members, who purchased the offer to support the app's growth.

We were betrayed because of the greed of Active Pieces' founder.

This:
"I gave ChatGPT all the resources and asked it to reply to your review and here's what I got:

--

They paid $239 once, years ago, and still get ongoing access plus upgrades like AI agents, MCP servers, higher limits, and both free self-hosted and free cloud—things Make and n8n won’t give without constant monthly fees. And they call that “crippled”? Seriously?

In Make’s or n8n’s world, $239 wouldn’t even last two years before the bills started rolling in. Activepieces has piled on value without taking another cent—turning this review into more of a head-scratcher than a fair critique."

@Ashraf:
I'm not going to tear down your product. I respect that you're defending it, but that response comes across as petty and isn't what I would expect from a founder. Whether it's warranted or not, I can understand that criticism is unpleasant but you're letting your emotions get the best out of your with this sort of reply.

My recommendation, if you care about your brand voice, is to have someone else handle some of these responses. From my experience interviewing individuals on a daily basis, when you're interacting with users who feel they've been unfairly treated and you provide this type of response, you're not presenting yourself or your product in the most favourable light.

I had no choice but to subtract a taco, since the system would not allow this type of response without at least subtracting one (weird).

I wish you and your team all the best.

As an LTD holder we are obviously buying into both the current state of the product and also the future potential and promises of the developers. In this case, the market went in a direction (MCP servers, agents, etc) and Activepieces followed - and then crippled their LTD plans. While it still works - sure, it's no longer competitive with Make.com / N8N / etc - for which it was sold as a viable competitor unless you spend more money to upgrade to a paid plan.

I have a T3 account - which I bought as it's a team account (I didn't get it for the increased tasks, I got it for the 5 users), but they are treating it like an individual account and saying "be happy that you are getting more than when you first bought it" (I'm paraphrasing) - but the attitude from the developers has made it clear to me and I'm sure many others - I will never give a penny more to them since they have broken all trust with their users and don't seem to care.

I did some tests when I bought the LTD initially but it didn't have many features then. I did not refund it because of the promise that new features will added and the LTD deal will me mapped to their plus/pro plan. Now I see "upgrade now" everywhere in the app. Except more tasks/month, the LTD pan is almost the same as their free plan now, nowhere near to their plus plan in terms of features.
These Appsumo LTDs are somewhat like investing in micro-cap stocks. Some will turn out to be gems. But sadly, ActivePieces is not one of them. ActivePieces have grown, but my investment in it did not. Since LTD is not mapped to any plan now, its value will keep on reducing every day until it becomes worthless.
