Hi everyone,
I have been exploring different workflow tools lately and wanted to get some real world input from the community.
In many teams, workflows are spread across task tracking, approvals, reporting, and communication tools. As processes grow, it becomes harder to keep everything aligned and automated without adding manual steps. That is where I see workflow tools playing a big role, especially when combined with automation platforms like n8n.
I am curious how people here approach this.
Do you rely on lightweight workflow tools and use n8n to glue everything together?
Or do you prefer more structured systems that already handle tasks, dependencies, and scheduling, with automation layered on top?
Some things I am trying to solve are
Keeping task and process status in sync across tools
Automating handoffs between teams
Reducing manual updates while still keeping visibility clear
Handling workflows that have dependencies and changing priorities
Would love to hear which workflow tools you have found effective and how you are integrating them with n8n for automation. What has worked well and what has not?
