How to Fix Your Integration Problem and Accelerate Digital Transformation

As more companies prioritize digital transformation, they come across challenges: in fact, up to two-thirds of digital transformation projects fail, according to Consultancy.UK. So, why is that? Workato founder and CEO Vijay Tella explains some of the issues that hold companies back on the road to digital transformation.

The Technology Gap

The Social Gap

There are two major problems holding back companies today: one is a technology gap in the technical capabilities required to for modern integrations and a social gap in the form of Business-IT divide. A new paradigm, intelligent automation, and supporting tooling based on a digital native approach is required to address these gaps and unlock the power of digital transformation in your business.

Before investing in digital transformation, organizations need to assess their integration solution: 

Can business users use it to easily create integrations to meet their rapidly changing needs? 

Are these integrations made by business users still centrally governable by IT? 

Does the platform have a user-friendly UX for app admins and non-engineers? 

Is there a powerful community library of automations to replicate and build on?

These qualities make an automation platform intelligent, and effective digital transformation solutions increase the likelihood of success for companies as they embark on this journey.
