Our verdict: Latenode
Best for SME technical teams who want code flexibility and AI agents in a visual tool, with a French website and solid free tier to start. Avoid if you need a fixed budget known in advance or server installation: processor-second billing is hard to forecast and Latenode has no self-hosted option like n8n.
Our verdict: n8n
The choice for technical teams: powerful, economical at scale, and data ownership when self-hosted. Reserve it for those with some technical chops, or get coaching.
