FA
Enables user-friendly workflow automation and provides efficient real-time execution logging
The low-code interface and the quick code writing within n8n that we can do and utilize is very helpful. It is very evolving at this point in time and very user-friendly. It brings in efficiency, better time to market, and actually helps us. Since we have hardcore developers in our team who use n8n, it becomes straightforward for them to quickly wrap up some modules from the front end and then connect them and use it quickly for different sorts of integrations. In terms of real-time execution logs, when we are running and debugging any process within n8n, this really helps us in figuring out if there is a problem within different modules. It provides the flexibility of pinning down the problem to the micro level, which is a really good benefit.
Jörg Kippe - PeerSpot reviewer
A mature and affordable solution that is easy to install and easy to update
The product takes time to learn, it's not that easy. In the beginning we had a lot of questions. If you want to use such a tool in an real (industrial) environment, you have to ask how to get the network data. Can we do a full packet capture? Can we provide agents to our end systems? There are no simple solutions to these questions. It's a general problem when running such systems in an industrial environment.
