Workato Alternatives 2026

Short answer

Zapier, n8n and Composio are the three alternatives on this page. Zapier fits a business team that needs shared, governed automation: its Team plan adds shared connections and SAML SSO, and Enterprise adds SCIM and audit logs (R32). n8n fits a team that wants to self-host: its Business plan adds SSO, LDAP and Git-based version control, but only for self-hosted deployments (R26). Composio fits developers who want tool calls handled in code rather than a visual builder.

None of these pages gives a Workato price, because Workato’s pricing page lists no plan prices and only offers a sales contact and a demo request (R49). This page therefore compares controls, deployment and pricing unit, not Workato’s cost.

Options compared

The table lists each option with its position on the 2026 ranking, where it has one, and the price as its cited source states it. Options marked not ranked were added from their own pricing pages.

Which option fits which need

Zapier

Team adds shared Zaps and shared connections, plus SAML SSO. Enterprise adds SCIM provisioning, custom data retention, app access controls and Log Streams. Audit logs are kept for six months on Team and one year on Enterprise (R32).

n8n

n8n is the option here with a self-hosted plan. Its Business plan includes SSO, LDAP and Git-based version control, and it is self-hosted only. The hosted plans are not yet offered on that tier (R26). The Community Edition is publicly available on GitHub (R27). Hosted plans store data in the EU, on servers in Frankfurt (R28).

Composio

Its Hobby plan is free, with 100K tool calls and 50K trigger events a month and three members. Pro costs $29 a month and includes $29 of usage that does not carry over to the next month. Tool calls above the Pro allowance cost $0.0003 each (R39). This page does not verify Composio’s Enterprise feature list. Check that tier with the vendor before you rely on it.

How to choose in one trial

Run the same small piece of work on Workato and on your top option from this list. Compare the setup time, the first working result, the way each tool meters usage, and the price of the plan that covers what you need. Count the real volume first: one trial on your own work tells you more than any table here.

Limits of this page

• No Workato figure appears on this page. The Workato pricing page we checked on 2026-10-16 lists no public plan prices (R49).
• Enterprise contract prices are not public on any cited page, so this page gives no enterprise figure for any option.
• Zapier counts tasks, and a single MCP tool call counts as 2 tasks (R31). n8n counts workflow executions, and the number of steps in one run does not change the count (R27). Composio counts tool calls and trigger events (R39). Because the units differ, take one real month of your Workato volume and convert it into each unit before you compare prices.
• Workato is not on the ranking, and none of the options is either. Positions are shown as not ranked.
• We did not evaluate any compliance certification beyond what each vendor page lists, and we did not run a trial of any option. Every claim comes from the vendor pages linked above.
