Robotic Process Automation (RPA) Vs Intelligent Automation – Choosing the right solution

Process automation enables organisations to optimise their customer experience at every touch point, increasing productivity and efficiency. Employing a digital workforce can free up resources for valuable human interactions, delight your customers, and improve business productivity at a lower operating cost. But how do know what solution to choose?

How does robotic process automation differ from intelligent automation?

Robotic process automation (RPA) is a form of automation that targets repetitive and rule-based duties that do not need human decision-making. On the contrary, intelligent automation (IA) merges RPA with other technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and natural language processing (NLP), to automate more intricate processes that involve human decision-making, reasoning, and judgment.

 

What is robotic process automation?

Robotic process automation (RPA) refers to a software technology that automates rule-based and repetitive tasks performed by humans, which can be enhanced by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to help with automated decisions and digitisation of documents.

What is robotic process automation software?

RPA software is an enterprise software category that empowers businesses to automate their workflows and processes by using software robots. These RPA software robots are programmed to imitate human actions, such as making decisions, entering data, and clicking buttons, to perform time-consuming, repetitive, and rule-based tasks.
