I’m evaluating Zapier as a middleware platform for our enterprise integrations and would like some guidance on whether Zapier is the right fit for our use case.
Our environment includes:
-
NetSuite (RESTlet + SOAP integrations)
-
POS 1 – ~5000 requests/day (SOAP)
-
POS 2 – ~3000 requests/day (RESTlet JSON)
-
Additional apps – ~5000 requests/day
Total volume is around 10,000+ inbound API calls per day.
The integrations require:
-
Handling 10+ transaction types from each POS
-
Data transformations and conditional logic
-
Posting transactions into NetSuite via RESTlets (Token-Based Authentication)
-
Error handling, retries, and logging
-
High-volume, near real-time data flow
I currently use n8n with a custom Node.js script for NetSuite TBA authentication and am exploring whether Zapier can replace this setup for better UI and manageability.
Before proceeding, I would like to know:
-
Is Zapier designed to handle high-volume API integrations (10000+ calls/day)?
-
How does Zapier perform with complex JSON transformations and branching logic?
-
Is Zapier suitable for NetSuite RESTlet-based workflows, especially with TBA authentication?
-
Would this type of middleware workload require the Enterprise plan?
-
Has anyone used Zapier successfully for POS-to-ERP integrations at similar scale?
Any insights, recommendations, or limitations I should be aware of would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance!
