It's the conductor of our digital orchestra.

Likeliness to Recommend

5 /10

What differentiates IBM Watsonx Orchestrate from other similar products?

We have so many different applications and rpa bots. Orchestrate is like the conductor that tells all of them what to do and makes them work together in harmony.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I love that it can combine the work of a human, an rpa bot, and an ai all in one single workflow. It's a very powerful way to manage complex, end-to-end processes.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It can be very complex to manage all the different moving parts of the orchestra.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you have a lot of different automation tools, this can be the brain that controls them all.

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Saves Time

It connects to all our business apps.

Likeliness to Recommend

4 /10

What differentiates IBM Watsonx Orchestrate from other similar products?

The real power of this tool is its ability to connect to all the different applications we use every day, like salesforce, sap, and office 365.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I love that it can work across multiple applications to complete a task. I can ask it to "pull the latest sales data from salesforce and create a chart in a powerpoint slide".

What do you dislike most about this product?

Setting up all the connections to our different apps was a very complex project.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you want to automate work that happens across many different systems, this is it.
