Workato Enterprise Automation

Workato enterprise automation is an iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) that creates no-code/low-code integrations and workflows across your organization’s ecosystem and teams. Connect to cloud, on-prem databases, ERP systems, legacy applications, and more. With Workato, organizations are better positioned to automate manual processes such as: employee onboarding and offboarding, moving opportunities through stages in the sales pipeline, IT operations, and customer account management, to name a few. Workato frees organizations and their employees from low-value, often redundant, operations and instead empowers them to focus on what matters most– delivering high quality, valuable products, and services to their customers (internal and external).

Easily Integrate and Automate Business Processes

With Workato, organizations are empowered to create automated end-to-end workflows with relative ease through Workato’s “recipes”. A well thought out business process automation not only reduces an organization’s operating expenses and increases their revenue generating opportunities, but it also frees their employees from: redundant tasks, potential manual errors, and tracking down mission critical information, whether that is from other employees or disparate systems.

For example, imagine an opportunity in the sales pipeline that, today, requires manually moving vital information from person to person in order to go from quote to cash. Regardless of training and standard operating procedures, people make mistakes. When organizations and teams are able to circumvent the inevitable manual errors via automation, they are better positioned to move the opportunity through the sales pipeline more efficiently and effectively so that they can better serve their customers.

Regardless of the industry, supporting or replacing business processes via automation is critical in the 21^st century. And because of our storied background in product management and defining requirements, Workato has partnered with ArgonDigital to help more organizations be as wildly successful as possible.
