Running n8n self-hosted: GDPR, licence and hosting in Germany

n8n is suitable for use in a company once hosting, data protection, licensing and support are sorted out. We run it with data sovereignty, documented and so that it doesn't depend on one person.

What we often hear

"We have been experimenting with n8n. Can we run it in our company in a GDPR-compliant way, and who looks after it?"

Today

  1. Test on a laptop
  2. only one person knows it
  3. Operation?

Afterwards

  1. n8n on your premises or in Germany
  2. reusable connections
  3. your processes
  • dashed: by hand
  • pink: runs by itself
  • blue: a person decides here

What changes

Running where you want.

On your own premises or in a data centre in Germany. We are happy to tell you the provider.

Documented, not tied to one person.

Every process is described and keeps running through holidays, illness and staff changes.

You keep building yourselves.

We build the connections to your software, and you can build your own processes on top of them. Open tools, handed over with documentation.

From our projects

A regional utility

A central n8n platform with reusable connections to the existing systems. The connections come from us, the customer builds the processes themselves.

How we get started with you

  1. 1 / 4

    Initial call

    30 minutes, free of charge

    You tell Matthias which process is costing you time right now. He listens, asks questions and tells you honestly whether we can help. No preparation needed, an example from your everyday work is enough.

    Result

    An honest assessment of whether a next step is worth it.

  2. 2 / 4

    Workshop

    2 to 3 hours

    We sit down with you and the colleagues who run the process every day. They show us how it really works, with all its exceptions. Then we work out together what the process costs today.

    Result

    An order of priorities, a calculation and material you can put in front of management.

  3. 3 / 4

    First project

    one process with noticeable relief

    We start with the process where the relief is felt fastest. Beforehand we agree how we will measure success. Your team tests with real cases and tells us what doesn't fit yet.

    Result

    A process that runs in everyday work.

  4. 4 / 4

    Expansion and operation

    the way you want it

    Once the first process runs, you decide how to continue. Further processes use the same connections and are added faster. We take care of operation, or we hand everything over to your IT with documentation.

    Result

    A documented solution that does not depend on us.

30 minutes, free of charge. Afterwards you have a first honest assessment.

Who on your side is involved

You

You bring the process and champion the project internally. From us you get an order of priorities, a calculation and material for management.

The people in the process

They know the exceptions and where things get stuck. That is why they are involved from the start, not only at roll-out.

Your IT

They work out with us access, where it runs and which connection to your software is possible and sensible.
