I think any of them will help you out , but based on your requisites.

If you have tasks that are independent , then you can go for shell file and
execute
it using sh(sh-posix) or ksh(korn shell) or bash/ksh if you are using linux.

Makefile is generally used for a sequence of dependent tasks, normally the
makefile has a hierarchical structure, eg

target (exe): <a.o> <b.o>
                     <other dependencies like .a , .h files>

a.o : cc <options> a.c
        <other dependencies like .h , .a files>
b.o: cc <options> b.c
        .
        .
        .

So its really question of nature of tasks.
