What's included in your free trial
No feature gates. No compromises. Full Pro access for 14 days.
What you can build in 14 days
n8n connects your entire tech stack. Automate your CRM synchronization. Route leads automatically. Pull data from Postgres into your data warehouse. Build AI agents that integrate OpenAI or Claude with your internal tools. Sync customer data across systems without manual entry.
Unlike Zapier, which charges per task, n8n charges per execution run. Run a workflow 1,000 times in your trial and pay zero. That difference is why your Zapier bill is 2,000 euro per month while your n8n bill would be 100 euro.
The real advantage
Most teams waste 5-10 hours per week on manual data entry and task coordination. That hours cost adds up fast. With n8n, you recover that time immediately. Your trial is 14 days to prove it.
You also keep your data. Self-host n8n on your own infrastructure, and nothing leaves your servers. No vendor lock-in. Full GDPR compliance. That's why EU-regulated teams use it instead of Zapier.

Why self-host n8n with Opsily
Your trial ends in 14 days. Then what? Self-hosting saves you 50-80% versus staying on n8n cloud.
Execution-based pricing, not per-user fees
n8n charges by execution runs, not by team seat. Add 10 users with zero extra cost. Your Zapier bill would triple. Your n8n bill stays the same. Opsily handles the infrastructure so you don't manage servers, patch security updates, or monitor uptime. We guarantee 99.9 percent availability and handle all the ops.
Complete data control and GDPR compliance
Self-hosted n8n keeps your data on your infrastructure. No third-party SaaS vendor storing your customer information in US data centers. EU teams need this. Your database stays in Germany. Your backups stay encrypted. You own the keys. Full GDPR and HIPAA compliance built in.
No vendor lock-in, ever
Export your workflows anytime. Move to another provider without losing anything. With Zapier, your automations are trapped. n8n workflows are portable JSON. You stay in control. That means you negotiate from a position of strength if you need to switch platforms down the line.
Built for teams who need reliability
Save per year when you self-host n8n
Team of 10 users, 100 runs per month. Zapier costs escalate per task count. n8n costs stay flat. Opsily removes the ops burden.

Free trial questions
No. Your n8n free trial requires email and password only. Zero credit card required. You will not be auto-charged when your trial ends. If you decide to continue, you add payment then. This is why n8n beats Zapier for evaluation: Zapier requires a card upfront, even for their trial. n8n does not.
