Comment on What are you using n8n for?
SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 1 week agoThe helpfully named site AlternativeTo is good for such questions. It’s populated by users and served me well over the years.
IFTTT and Zapier are the primary non-self-hosted alternatives, both have been around for ages and have lots of available integrations.
Node-RED and Huginn are the self-hosted alternatives. Huginn is older than both n8n and Node-RED, afaik, and seems to be primarily focused on online queries like updates to a webpage.
In the end I haven’t used any of them, since I’m more of a code guy, so can’t say if one is better than another for anything.

I tried Huginn first but I found the documentation better for n8n, and it was easier to use.
