Why a dedicated n8n workflow automation VPS beats DIY

You could install n8n on a generic $5 VPS. Most people who try spend an evening on the install, another on hardening, another on backups, and then it falls over the first time the kernel updates. We've done that work — every n8n workflow automation plan is tuned, monitored, and updateable in one click.

Common questions

About n8n Workflow Automation VPS hosting.

How does n8n compare to Zapier / Make?

More powerful and cheaper at scale. Zapier costs $30/mo for 750 tasks. n8n on our $15.99 VPS runs unlimited tasks. The trade-off is you have to host and maintain it. For under ~500 monthly tasks, Zapier is easier. Above that, n8n pays for itself within a month.

What's the difference between Starter and Pro?

Starter is fine for 10–20 workflows running a few times per day. Pro handles 50+ workflows, multiple users, and webhook-heavy automations (CRM syncs, ETL jobs). Premium adds headroom for AI / OpenAI nodes which are RAM-heavy.

Can I run AI-heavy workflows on this?

Yes — OpenAI, Anthropic, and HuggingFace nodes are first-class. They consume RAM during execution; Pro or Premium recommended for any GPT-4-class workflow.

Is the fair-code licence okay for commercial use?

Yes for internal business use. The restriction kicks in only if you resell n8n as a managed service. Most users (agencies running client workflows, in-house teams, indie builders) are fully covered.
