Activepieces is an open-source automation platform as an alternative to Zapier and Make. Sophera Consulting integrates, configures and extends Activepieces for GDPR-compliant use in German companies.
Activepieces is the leading open-source alternative to Zapier and Make, giving you full control over your automation infrastructure. As certified Activepieces experts, we deploy the platform on your own servers or a German cloud provider, configure your workflows, and build custom connectors for any system that lacks native support. Your data never leaves your infrastructure.
What We Offer
4 Kernfunktionen
Self-Hosted Deployment
We deploy Activepieces on your own servers or a German cloud provider, ensuring complete data sovereignty and GDPR compliance — no data ever leaves your control.
280+ Native Connectors
Connect your tools out of the box with pre-built integrations for CRMs, ERPs, email platforms, databases, and more — covering the vast majority of business software used in German SMEs.
Custom Piece Development
For proprietary or niche systems without native support, we develop custom Activepieces connectors (called 'pieces') that integrate seamlessly into the visual workflow builder.
Visual Workflow Builder
Empower your team to create and modify automations through an intuitive drag-and-drop interface — no coding required for standard workflows, with full code access for advanced logic.
Use Cases
CRM-ERP Synchronization
A trading company eliminated 4 hours of daily manual data transfer by syncing their CRM with their ERP system in real time, ensuring sales orders, customer data, and inventory levels are always up to date.
Marketing Automation Pipeline
A B2B service provider automated their entire lead nurturing process — from form submission to CRM entry, email sequences, and sales team notification — reducing lead response time from 24 hours to 5 minutes.
Cross-System Data Pipelines
A logistics company built automated data pipelines that collect shipment data from 3 carrier APIs, normalize the formats, update their tracking database, and trigger customer notifications — all without a single line of custom code.
Our Approach
Assessment
We audit your current tool landscape, identify integration gaps, and evaluate which workflows will deliver the highest ROI when automated through Activepieces.
Setup
We deploy Activepieces on your preferred infrastructure — whether on-premise, in a private cloud, or with a German hosting provider — and configure security, backups, and access controls.
Configuration
We build your priority workflows, connect all required systems, develop any custom pieces needed, and thoroughly test every automation with your real data.
Training
Your team receives hands-on training in the visual workflow builder so they can independently create, modify, and troubleshoot automations going forward.
