The State of Automation 2019: RPA, AI, and Intelligent Automation

As digital transformation approaches a new decade, there is a shift across all industries toward leveraging Robotic Process Automation (RPA), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and utilizing Intelligent Automation (IA) to revolutionize and streamline business operations. Prioritizing investments that free employees from low value and time-consuming tasks while also leveraging AI and the benefits Intelligent Automation can deliver are business game-changers.
