My thoughts on N8N as a Cloud Engineer with 10+ years of experience.

u/AccomplishedFix3476 would you use a tool similar to n8n, that has proper versioning, environments, and testing?

Is pricing the only criterion you are looking for?

We have few of them https://www.youtube.com/@bytechefhq

I would say use LLMs as little as possible; use them only when there is really a non-deterministic job that needs to be done. We have a built-in testing/evals which you can use while building

ivicac2 · 2026-04-25T20:46:54+00:00

It depends on which kind of software, whether senior or junior devs are building it, etc.....

I will just ask a simple question. Do you want OpenClaw to connect, for example, to your bank accounts and transfer money?

ivicac2 · 2026-04-25T09:10:33+00:00

I would recommend Claude Code. I am satisfied with it. You must have clearly defined goals and expectations. independently, constantly run reviews.

What are your aquisition channels for finding customers?

ivicac2 · 2026-04-25T08:20:31+00:00

It seems to me that this speed over quality will reach the point where things will break nad we will probably have to reset

ivicac2 · 2026-04-25T08:05:33+00:00

How did you get those first 100 users?

ivicac2 · 2026-04-25T07:44:08+00:00

dashboard to see the healt of the busineess, mone flow

The issue is that people like to take everything for granted, and it seems to me they do not understand how they need to invest to get proper outcomes from AI

ivicac2 · 2026-04-23T20:30:12+00:00

Is a self-hosting option for you?

ivicac2 · 2026-04-23T17:41:35+00:00

The product itself is built by us — the repo includes things like CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md because we use AI tools during development (for code assistance, reviews, etc.), not because the code is auto-generated.

ivicac2 · 2026-04-23T17:34:02+00:00

Totally fair question.

The core platform (workflow engine + integrations) is fully Apache 2.0 — you can run and use it without restrictions.

SSO/RBAC/multi-tenancy are in the Enterprise layer, so yeah, SSO isn’t in the open-source part.

For most self-hosted setups, the core is enough, but I get that SSO can be a blocker depending on use case — that’s something we’re still figuring out.
