Platform comparison

OpenClaw vs CrewAI vs AutoGen vs LangChain: which multi-agent platform should you deploy?

Multi-agent systems are replacing single-bot architectures. But choosing the wrong framework means rebuilding your agent stack six months in. Here is how the four main platforms compare for real production use on a VPS.

OpenClaw — Best for production agents

Persistent memory, tool use, and a focus on 24/7 production agents. Runs well on a small VPS (roughly 1 GB RAM device). Least ongoing maintenance of the four.

CrewAI — Best for structured workflows

The most intuitive framework for content and structured multi-agent workflows. Needs a bit more room to run (roughly 2 GB RAM).

AutoGen — Most developer flexibility

Microsoft's framework gives you the most control but the most configuration. Great if you want to build, wire, and tune everything yourself.

LangChain — Largest ecosystem

The most integrations and documentation of any LLM framework. Powerful, but heavier on infrastructure and setup time.
