Makini supports over 2,000 industrial systems across ERP, CMMS, and WMS categories. This includes major platforms like SAP (ECC, S4/HANA, Business One), Oracle NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, IBM Maximo, and specialized industrial systems. We support both cloud-based and on-premises installations. If you need to connect to a system we don't currently support, we're committed to building that integration for you at no additional charge—most new integrations are completed within one business day. You can view our full list of supported systems at makini.io/integrations.
Makini's unified API acts as a common denominator across all connected systems. We map each system's data structure to a standardized data model, exposing consistent endpoints regardless of the underlying platform. This means you write the same code to retrieve purchase orders from SAP, NetSuite, or Dynamics—the API calls and response formats are identical. You always get data in the same structure, making it easy to build consistent business logic. The unified approach eliminates the need to learn each system's unique API, manage multiple authentication methods, or handle varying data formats.
The initial sync occurs when you first connect a system and retrieves historical data to establish a baseline. This includes records from a configurable time period (typically 30-90 days) and can take several minutes to hours depending on data volume. Initial syncs are complete snapshots of the requested data. Incremental syncs occur on subsequent runs and retrieve only records created or modified since the last successful sync. Makini tracks sync timestamps and uses them to query for changes efficiently. Incremental syncs are much faster, usually completing in seconds to minutes. This approach minimizes API load on source systems while keeping your data current.
Design your webhook receiver to handle duplicates and out-of-order webhooks, as network issues or retries can cause both scenarios. Keep the receiver lightweight—ideally writing incoming webhooks to a queue or reliable storage—then process them asynchronously. This prevents timeouts and allows your system to handle high-volume webhook spikes. Respond with a 200 status code immediately after receiving the webhook, before processing begins. Implement idempotency by tracking processed webhook IDs and skipping duplicates. Use constant-time comparison for signature verification to prevent timing attacks. If webhook processing fails, log the error but still return 200 to prevent unnecessary retries. Set up monitoring and alerts for webhook failures so you can investigate issues promptly. For critical workflows, combine webhooks with periodic polling as a fallback mechanism.
