Hosted n8n vs running your own VPS
Should you keep a VPS and manage n8n yourself, or offload that work to hosted infrastructure like xiben8n?
A VPS gives you full control at the cost of ongoing maintenance: OS patches, Docker upgrades, reverse proxies, certificates, and backups. For some teams that control is worth it.
Hosted n8n on xiben8n trades some low‑level control for simplicity: you get a dedicated sandbox, automatic pause/resume, and a stable URL, without touching the underlying box.
