In May 2024, Boomi announced the free beta version of Task Automation. Today, we’re pleased to share that the product is now generally available, with an improved user interface (UI) based on feedback from our beta users.
Say Goodbye to Boring, Repetitive Tasks With Boomi Task Automation
No matter where you work in an organization, your to-do list is likely packed with things you don’t want to do — but you still have to do them. They’re manual, boring, and repetitive busy work. And they stand in the way of achieving more critical priorities for the business. It’s the big picture cluttered by the trivial.
Boomi Task Automation puts you back in control so you can focus on what matters most — more productivity with less effort.
Task Automation for the People
Executing repetitive tasks relies on time-consuming manual effort or if you’re lucky, developer intervention. But even with developer help, which can be hard to come by, automating tasks requires substantial time. So often, with limited IT resources, even simple, straightforward task automations are ignored.
But there’s an eventual cost to that. As employees labor on, manually handling simple but necessary jobs, organizational productivity declines — not to mention team morale — while costs rise.
With Boomi Task Automation, you can easily automate repetitive tasks without any technical knowledge. A variety of pre-built templates can streamline your workflows. A few clicks and you’re done. Everyone wins.
With Task Automation, business professionals in sales, marketing, finance, HR, support — you name it — can start automating everyday tasks to boost productivity, without waiting for IT. An intuitive, no-code interface lets non-technical business users simply choose apps and tasks to automate from pre-built templates — or even ask Boomi AI to help. Some examples include:
- Sales: When an opportunity is created in Salesforce, notify the opportunity team in Slack
- Marketing: When a new Salesforce record is created, create a new lead in HubSpot
- Finance: When new receipts are added in Expensify, create Quickbooks expenses
And, IT professionals can free up time by setting up simple automations such as creating issue tickets in GitHub for new bugs reported in Jira.
Boomi Pathfinder: Your AI-Driven Personal Assistant
Describing an efficient automation process is something AI can do in its sleep. If AI slept. But seriously, just describe the tasks you want to automate using simple prompts, and Boomi Pathfinder can guide you through the process. Think of Pathfinder as a personal assistant who knows your organization backward and forward and can help you unlock its hidden potential.
You may even be surprised by the automation “tricks” Pathfinder comes up with based on learnings from industry best practices. And with OAuth authorization, you can securely connect your favorite apps once and use that connection for all your future task automations without storing any data on our platform.
Make a Bigger Business Impact
With Boomi Task Automation’s built-in results tracker, you can skip the grind of compiling routine productivity reports. And the more tasks you automate, the better your performance will be and the greater your business impact.
In fact, a Deloitte report notes that organizations moving beyond pilot phases of intelligent automation are reducing costs by an average of 32%. Intelligent automation can also improve customer satisfaction and help drive increased revenue. Combined with cost savings, this can result in a multimillion-dollar payback for larger organizations. Benefits add up in areas such as:
- Improved productivity and operational cost efficiency
- Greater data accuracy from minimizing the risk of human error
- Improved sales and customer service
- Higher employee job satisfaction and retention
- Increased capacity to scale the business
Democratizing No-Code Automation
Boomi pioneered the integration platform as a service (iPaaS) market with low-code technology and has been recognized as a leader in the space ever since. And empowering citizen integrators has always been a powerful feature of the Boomi Enterprise Platform.
Now, just like we did with integration, we’re driving democratization of task automation to allow more people — technical or not — to reap the benefits from AI and no-code automation. Task Automation is included with any Boomi annual subscription license, so it’s easy to get started.
