Short take
Coolify has the lower starting price ($0/mo vs $24/mo). Check the plan size before you decide. The cheaper plan may have less RAM.
- Coolify: Open source platform you run on your own server. Has an n8n template.
- xCloud: Server panel with one-click n8n and a managed option.
Plans differ in size. Compare RAM, not just price. Sources: Coolify pricing, xCloud pricing.
