We run n8n as the integration layer on the operational PWAs we host.
Where it shows up
- Website to back office: enquiry capture into Zoho Books so a serious lead does not sit in an inbox.
- Operational glue: notifications, approvals, and system-to-system handoffs that used to be a spreadsheet and a reminder.
- Scheduled jobs: checks and follow-ups around the app, without standing up a second platform.
Why n8n instead of a custom cron farm
- Visible workflows the business can reason about
- Self-hosted on the same AlmaLinux VPS stack we already manage
- Fast to change when a process moves, which they do
On a PWA, n8n is part of the service we run.
