# Try free then choose a plan

[n8n Cloud](/deploy/use-n8n-cloud.md) is the managed way to run n8n: n8n hosts your instance, so you don't set up or maintain any infrastructure. The best way to start is with a free trial, then move to a paid plan that fits your needs.

## Start with a free trial <a href="#start-with-a-free-trial" id="start-with-a-free-trial"></a>

When you create a new n8n Cloud trial, you have 14 days to try all the features of the [Pro plan](https://n8n.io/pricing/), including:

* Global variables
* Insights dashboard
* Execution search
* 5 days of workflow history to roll back

The trial gives you Pro plan features with a limit of 1000 executions and the same computing power as the [Starter plan](https://n8n.io/pricing/).

## Compare n8n Cloud plans <a href="#compare-n8n-cloud-plans" id="compare-n8n-cloud-plans"></a>

After your trial, you can move to a paid plan. Each plan suits a different user and includes different features, usage limits, and computing power.

The following plans are available for n8n Cloud users:

| Plan           | Designed for                                                                      |
| -------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Free trial** | Trying n8n Cloud with Pro features for 14 days                                    |
| **Starter**    | Individuals and small projects getting started                                    |
| **Pro**        | Power users and small teams that need higher limits, admin accounts, and insights |
| **Enterprise** | Organizations that need advanced security, scaling, and dedicated support         |

## Upgrade to a paid plan <a href="#upgrade-to-a-paid-account" id="upgrade-to-a-paid-account"></a>

You can upgrade to a paid n8n account at any time. To upgrade:

1. Log in to your account.
2. Select the **Upgrade** button in the upper-right corner.
3. Select your plan and whether to pay annually or by the month.
4. Select a payment method.

## Trial expiration <a href="#trial-expiration" id="trial-expiration"></a>

If you don't upgrade by the end of your trial, the trial automatically expires and n8n deletes your workspace.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Download your workflows**

You can [download your workflows](/deploy/use-n8n-cloud/download-workflows.md) to reuse them later. You have 90 days to download your workflows after your free trial ends.
{% endhint %}

### Cancelling your trial <a href="#cancelling-your-trial" id="cancelling-your-trial"></a>

You don't need to cancel your trial. Your trial automatically expires at the end of the trial period and no charges occur. n8n deletes all your data soon after.

## Enterprise trial <a href="#enterprise-trial" id="enterprise-trial"></a>
