n8n consulting for industrial SMEs.
n8n is a workflow automation tool: processes are built as visual workflows and connect systems such as ERP, CRM, Excel and email via interfaces. We use n8n where it fits your workflow – after the process has been clarified, not before.
Starting point
What n8n is suited for in industrial SMEs.
Typical use cases from our workflow and process automation service:
- Automating workflows with n8n and no-code workflows
- Automated data transfer between ERP and other systems
- Automated creation of standard documents (quotes, reports)
- Rule-based routing of emails and requests
- Automated notifications for defined events
Approach
How we work with n8n.
The core problem rarely lies in the technology – which is why the process comes before the workflow.
- 1
Clarify the process
Before automation, processes must be clearly defined – including steps, responsibilities and dependencies.
- 2
Choose the tool
We check whether n8n, no-code automation or RPA fits the workflow. RPA is suitable, for example, for rule-based, recurring tasks in systems without a suitable interface.
- 3
Build the workflow
We build the n8n workflow and connect it to your existing systems. Repetitive steps run automatically; review and decisions remain with people.
- 4
Define operation
Whether n8n runs in your own infrastructure or as a cloud version depends on your requirements for data storage and operation. We decide this together.
- 5
Expand step by step
Based on the first results, further workflows are automated – one at a time, not as a large project.
Use cases
n8n in concrete workflows.
Three workflows where automation typically starts – each with an illustrative example scenario.
FAQ
Questions about n8n.
Do we need new systems for n8n?
No. n8n connects the systems you already have – ERP, CRM, Excel and email – through clear data flows.
When is n8n not the right choice?
If a workflow is not yet clearly defined, it is structured first. And if a system offers no suitable interface, RPA may be better suited for rule-based, recurring tasks.
Who stays in control?
Your employees. Repetitive, structured tasks are automated; review and decisions remain with people.
Where do the workflows run?
We decide this together: in your own infrastructure or as a cloud version – depending on your requirements for data storage and operation.
How do we get started?
With an initial call: in 20–30 minutes we assess whether one of your core processes needs action. You then receive a concrete next step – without obligation. Consulting takes place remotely and, by arrangement, on site in Baden-Württemberg.
