Can you expand a bit. I was not familiar with n8n and looked at their website and it seems they have many users. Why is it bold?

Why shouldn't it be able to handle the task here?

Having used it pretty heavily in a containerized desktop environment, I wouldn't use it in production for anything business critical. It's a mix of "there's too much unknown" under the hood, and "there's weird things that I can't reproduce". It hadn't really reached critical mass as of yet, so support from the community is lackluster.

I'd sooner pay a bucket for something like Tines to offload critical mechanisms, and then do the dirt-cheap stuff on n8n.
