The pricing experience was a bit of a learning curve. Working in an on-premise environment with no cost is great. For cloud environments, I noticed that depending on the number of nodes used and the number of executions, the basic plan might not be enough, and this is something I learned through experience. These days, when I recommend n8n, I always go with the tier one pricing system, opting for the premium option.
My experience with pricing and setup costs has been good. I feel that the price is right as I'm using the standard version, which allows for about one thousand five hundred executions per month, which is sufficient for me and my organization. It seems scalable, so if more executions are needed, I can pay a bit more.
In terms of infrastructure costs, an organization will have to pay for the monthly infrastructure needed for installation. However, when the volume of transactions or operations they need daily or monthly is compared to the operational cost in Make or Zapier, it is massively lower. With a local implementation, even though the organization has to pay the infrastructure cost, it massively outperforms the operations cost they would have to pay on a cloud implementation of Make or Zapier, putting them in a win-win situation.

Pricing is a bit high, and the setup experience had no cost; it was entirely free and there was no licensing required for this.

I do not have detailed information about the pricing, setup cost, or licensing cost of n8n.

For a small license part, I find n8n is reasonable. But the minute you expand, I believe it becomes a bit on the high side.
