What is n8n Hosting?
n8n is an open-source workflow automation tool that needs to be hosted somewhere to run. Unlike SaaS tools that run in the cloud, n8n gives you the freedom to self-host, but this requires server setup, maintenance, and technical knowledge.
FlowEngine's managed n8n hosting gives you the best of both worlds: the control and cost savings of self-hosting with the simplicity of a managed service. We handle all the infrastructure while you focus on building automations.
Why Choose FlowEngine for n8n Hosting?

Custom Domain & SSL
Each instance gets a subdomain or connect your own custom domain. Automatic HTTPS with Let's Encrypt certificates - renewed automatically.
Pre-configured SMTP
Send emails from n8n workflows immediately with our pre-configured SMTP server. No need to set up SendGrid, Mailgun, or other email providers.
