N8n licens questions

Hi guys,

Could you please clarify if I’ve understood everything correctly?

When we use self-hosted n8n, we don’t have to pay for anything. We have unlimited workflows and unlimited executions, and we can use all features included in the Community Edition.

If we want to unlock more features, we can choose a Business or Enterprise plan. In this case, we will be using a cloud-hosted n8n instance (not self-hosted), have access to all premium features, but also have limits on the number of workflows and executions.

Is that correct?

Thank you in advance!

Hi, as far as I know you can have a self-hosted enterprise license. Best to check with with n8n.

Here’s a link about this:

Reg,

You can also self host the business and enterprise plan. You will not be limited on the number of workflows, but it will limit your executions.

Keep in mind this is very old information. For example the team plan does not exist anymore.

Thank you for your reply!

So, just to confirm my understanding:

Self-hosted n8n Community Edition provides unlimited workflows and executions for free.

If we upgrade to Enterprise (self-hosted), we unlock additional features (e.g. SSO, audit logs, RBAC, etc.), but the number of executions becomes limited based on the chosen license plan.

Is that correct?

Thanks again for the clarification!

Yes, with a license you get features and the pricing then scales with the nr of executions you need.
