General understanding of workflow compared to Zapier

Questions
1

Hi together,

We want to move away from Zapier because of some limitations. At the moment we do have like 200+ active Zaps. In n8n I can have up to 50 active workflows. Current scenario: we do have a Zap in Zapier for whenever you receive a Google My Business review, we will answer to that with a ChatGPT generated answer. Question: will this then be one active workflow? Because if I have like 100+ GMB accounts, I will need 100+ active workflows, then the pricing model will be more expensive here, or? Maybe I am just thinking the wrong way.

Thanks for all the help.

Regards,
Soeren

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

Hey @Soren

It depends on how you organize your workflows. In n8n you have a lot of flexibility. For example one solution for your use-case would be to have multiple triggers in the same workflow and set all fields right after the triggers:

Another way will be to have one workflow with all of the triggers and call a subworkflow for the reply:

Workflows that have only the ‘When executed by another workflow’ trigger can’t be activated and i think don’t count towards the active workflow count.
