Automate IT Processes
IT Process Automation (ITPA) includes tools that can perform tasks that contain any repeatable pattern—tasks that once was handled manually by IT workers.
Building Blocks
Each operation is a basic building block that performs a Task, for instance, to print a file, to send an email message, to sync a folder with cloud.
or Event
An automated IT process can be initiated by a Trigger. The process can be launched on schedule, manually, or when a file appears in a folder or remote server.
Your IT staff is still performing tasks manually? Runbook Automation or RBA can help you to reduce costs, perform IT tasks faster, and with much less mistakes.
A Self-hosted no-code App
Automation Workshop consists of two parts—a Windows service that runs unattended task workflows, and a no-code GUI app for Task creation.
No-code uses a drag-and-drop UI to create automated tasks, in contrast to traditional programming and scripting.
On-premises
Using a cloud service is not always an option, especially if the IT process involves local files that need to be printed, transferred, or processed. A self-hosted solution is secure, fast, and your files never leave your premises.
The UI of Automation Workshop is so elegant and awesome. Installation and your first Task deployment will take only a couple minutes.
Automating file operations
If your IT processes involve file management that is handled by human workers, then Automation Workshop can automate them.
Automate file transfers from and to any FTP server, cloud provider, SAN/NAS, or local network with ease. Full audit and error trail is always available at your fingertips.
Start your IT Processes based on file events. Launch a workflow when a new file appears in a folder or gets deleted. Local, remote, and cloud files—anything!
Seamless, reliable, and unattended automated file transfers. Copy or sync files between clouds, FTPs, virtually anywhere.
See real results…
IT Process Automation using no-code tools is a new paradigm shift. People are creating amazing automated solutions without writing any program code. The automated workflows are created rapidly, thus reducing the initial costs, as well as improving your ROI in the long run.
Automation Workshop is an awesome piece of software. It will save us thousands of man hours this year alone!—Chuck W.

Process Automation
Process automation uses software tools to create completely automated and unattended tasks. Automation improves efficiency, decreases errors, and minimizes costs.
IT Process Automation (ITPA) is using software to streamline workflows by reducing the amount of time and work needed to perform operations, thus reducing operating costs.
Humans tend to make mistakes. The Automation Workshop App does not sleep, does not need vacations, and it performs automated jobs flawlessly and seamlessly.
Automation apps help you to create tasks and workflows to replace boring and repetitive manual processes. Servers, workstations, or a cloud can be automated.
RPA vs Traditional Automation
RPA or Robotic Process Automation is used to emulate a human worker. In contrast to Traditional Automation, RPA requires especially trained workers.
RPA usually emulates human input by moving mouse cursor, clicking mouse buttons, and entering text into on-screen forms like a real human worker.
Automating file transfers with RPA is like trying to use a screwdriver to drive in nails. Traditional Automation is a perfect tool to automate file transfers of any complexity—local or remote.
Automation Workshop supports all the latest security standards—SSL, TLS, and SSH for secure and automated file transfers, or AES-256 for file encryption.
No-code, low-code, zero-code…
No-code, low-code, and zero-code denotes how much programming knowledge is necessary to operate an app. Automation Workshop does not require programming or scripting.
Low-code is a software development approach that is using visual tools to write a computer program. It usually requires programming knowledge.
Automation Workshop can be used by people that lack any software development experience. You don't need to know any programming language to create your custom automation solutions.
Automation Workshop is crafted by programmers and engineers with more than 20 years of experience in automation. It is rock solid under any load!
