Native automation vs. Zapier/Make: when to complement Jestor with other tools?

Jestor has more than 400 native automations, including direct integrations with Omie, Conta Azul, WhatsApp, Slack, Gmail, and more, with no intermediary required. Even so, for systems outside that native catalog, you can integrate via Zapier, Make, or open API and webhooks.

The native catalog already covers almost everything

In practice, Jestor is already very complete out of the box: approvals, contracts, document generation, WhatsApp and email communication, and direct ERP integration (like Omie and Conta Azul) are all part of the native catalog, with nothing extra to buy beyond the platform itself.

So before subscribing to any external tool, it's worth checking what's already included — the odds are good that your process is already covered natively.

How to get the most out of what Jestor already includes

Explore the native automation catalog before looking for any external integration.
Set up the direct ERP integration (Omie or Conta Azul), with no intermediary needed.
Use the native contracts, PDF, and communication features (WhatsApp, Slack, Gmail) for day-to-day processes.
If a specific system isn't in the native catalog, complement it with Zapier, Make, or open API.
Freely combine the paths: native for the essentials, external only for what's truly needed.

Why choose Jestor?

Jestor was built so that most of your operation runs on what's already on the platform — the team can trust the native catalog to handle the vast majority of cases, while still having the freedom to complement it with Zapier, Make, or an API whenever a specific process calls for something extra.

Which ERP does Jestor integrate with natively? Jestor has a direct native integration with Omie and Conta Azul, with no intermediary required.
