Workato: Integration, AI, Bots Solution

Workato: Integration, AI, Bots Solution

The rising number of standalone business applications has transformed the business landscape, taking them closer to their digital objectives. And as the majority of these apps are ready for cloud adoption, they are highly flexible and easy to access and use across devices. But when it comes to deep-linking these apps, most businesses witness a host of critical challenges. While the open-source built of several such apps has helped bridge the integration gap, it is still a time, effort, and investment-consuming process. This rising integration demand resulted in the introduction of iPaaS (Integration Platform as a Service) technology. Workato is a leading iPaaS platform that aims to deliver advanced automation and integration solutions to help businesses and IT users collaborate better. Rather than just helping businesses with app integration, Workato can enable you to effortlessly orchestrate efficient workflow automation throughout your business processes.

With Workato Salesforce integration, you can connect Salesforce with hundreds and thousands of different apps without worrying about coding. Not only this but Workato has also been recognized as the ‘Integration Leader’ by Gartner and Forrester Report.

What Makes Workato a Leading Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) Solution?

Some of the top features that make Workato a leading iPaaS solution are as follows

  • Not Just an iPaaS

While Workato is popular as a leading Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) solution, it is much more than any standard iPaaS. With Workato, businesses can easily sync their data across cloud and on-premise apps to improve the integrity and quality of data. Apart from cloud and on-premise apps, you can also create a custom group of integrations, including databases and AI services, to automate workflows effectively. Moreover, Workato achieves automation in a manner that most other popular platforms do not. It offers the highest level of security and confirmed human interactions when involved in processes, such as task assignment, review, workflow approvals, lead cleansing, and more. It can also be used for creating intelligent and interactive chatbots that enable users to complete tasks through chats.

When you retrieve larger connections, like large data volumes, the connectors offered by Workato make use of cursors for transparently processing the data in individual batches. This helps in optimizing resource consumption, like network, traffic, memory, etc.

  • Workato Recipes

One of the biggest USPs of Workato is the recipes. In simple words, these are pre-defined steps that the Integration Platform as a Service solution will follow for getting a task done between your business apps. The recipes can be customized with advanced features that can help the solution efficiently manage a variety of workflow automation and integration scenarios.

Some of the most common examples of such scenarios are duplicate detection, conditional actions and triggers, data transformations, and more.
