Automation is the key to successful business operations. It is the single biggest driver of productivity gains and factors heavily in achieving a sustainable competitive advantage. Whether you are automating a simple form or a complex process, the goal is to leverage the expertise of your staff by giving them a way to convert their ideas into effective and easily deployable solutions.
Your managers and veteran staff are the people who have direct knowledge of how your business functions. They are the subject matter experts, and they are also the ones who will be using the solution. It makes sense that they should have a major role in the design of the solution.
iPhora Automate allows these users to apply their own knowledge and experience to accelerate and streamline your business. As a no-code solution, iPhora lets them focus on the functionality, not the coding, and since your business environment is ever-changing, iPhora Automate makes it easy for those users to update and redeploy their processes, whenever needed.
iPhora Automate provides:
- A secure, easy to use portal to deploy processes to users
- Deployed on your private environment of choice
- Supports both internal and external workflow participants
- One-touch application deployment and management
- A no-code visual designer to model and build your processes
- Built-in iPaaS to securely add web services into processes
- A full set of admin tools to manage applications and users
- Extensible platform to handle complex processes and operations
iPhora Automate allows you to automate processes no matter how complex and provides you the tools to extend its capabilities to match the needs of your business. Power users and developers can create reusable modules called ActionStreams, which can include complex functionality and can be utilized by business users within their own processes.
For processes that involve accessing data from external data stores, developers can create custom service connectors to access the data from within any process. The additional connectors appear in the component palette, where even newbie designers can make use of them.
With iPhora Automate, there is no limit on the number of workflows, processes, or API service requests, giving you the freedom to design solutions that accurately reflect your business needs.
Real world business processes often involve more than just internal users. External participants, such as distributors and suppliers, are often involved, and in many cases, identical processes must be deployed across hundreds of partner/client companies. iPhora Automate includes built-in features to handle these situations. Data is structurally isolated between external organizations, and iPhora's Hierarchical Controlled Deployment can rapidly distribute apps and processes to large numbers of external users.

There is no limit on the number of task and actions that you can have in your workflow app. Unlike some other solutions, iPhora Automate flows never expire.
With the Professional Edition, there is no limit on the number of workflow apps that can be created by users.

Utilizing the security and isolation capabilities of iPhora AppPlace, each instance of the same process is isolated between external users.
