If your 5–20 person team pays per seat for Google Workspace, HubSpot, Mailchimp, Dropbox and Zapier, this SaaS cost calculator shows first-year savings against a one-time Mailcow, SuiteCRM, Mautic, Nextcloud and n8n stack.
Adjust the sliders to match your team size. The report compares typical monthly SaaS seats with a one-time self-hosted stack: Mailcow (email), SuiteCRM, Mautic, Nextcloud and n8n.
See the CRM guide for small teams and an n8n Telegram voice-to-PowerPoint bot — custom automation when the packaged stack is not the job.
Based on your team size, here's the breakdown.

Your tools are powerful on their own, but they become an unstoppable force when connected. Using n8n, we build custom workflows that automate your business processes, saving you hundreds of hours.
When a new lead enters your CRM, a private folder is instantly created in Nextcloud, and a personalized welcome email is sent from your Mailcow server.
When a lead's status changes to "Long-term" in SuiteCRM, they are automatically added to a specific nurturing campaign in Mautic.
When you move a deal to the "Proposal" stage in the CRM, the link to their private Nextcloud folder is automatically added to the deal record for easy access.
These are real engagements, not anonymous quotes. Custom n8n sits beside the packaged stack when the job is not a one-time install.

Multi-stage forms and n8n agents cut manual data entry by about 90% and alert staff on WhatsApp and Telegram for hot leads.

Mailcow for email, SuiteCRM for CRM, Mautic for marketing, Nextcloud for files, and n8n for workflows — installed on a dedicated server included in the one-time setup fee. Compare that against typical Google Workspace, HubSpot, Mailchimp, Dropbox and Zapier seats in the calculator above.
Absolutely. 100%. The entire software stack is installed on your private, dedicated server. We have no access to your data unless you explicitly grant it for support purposes. You own everything.
There are none. The $1899 is a one-time fee for the software installation, configuration, server setup, and building initial automation workflows. The only recurring cost you'll ever have is the annual domain name renewal (around $15/year), which you pay directly to the registrar.
We offer optional monthly support and development retainers for businesses that need ongoing help, custom features, or new automation workflows. We can discuss these if and when you need them.
Yes. We start you on a powerful server, and all the software is built to scale. If you outgrow your initial server, upgrading is a straightforward process with minimal downtime.
Stop renting your business infrastructure. It's time to own it. Let's build your permanent digital home.
