Ask HN: Startup needs suggestion on business process automation
Hi, does anyone have experience with business process automation of tasks? Either open source or SaaS with an API. For example, at a certain trigger, I need to create a file or REST transaction, send an email, follow up on that, call someone. What software should I investigate to integrate to?
- raquo 7y agoZapier comes to mind for one. What kind of triggers would you want?
- BjoernKW 7y agoI second that. I use Zapier for automating processes such as: - storing incoming invoices in Google Drive - sending payment reminders (not entirely automated in this case; Zapier just creates a reminder to check and send a reminder by the due date; this could be completely automated, too though) - storing contracts and project documentation coming in via email - sending emails to leads at certain stages in the sales process Zapier’s tools for extracting and programmatically accessing data (e.g. for storing invoices in a folder for the current month) are quite sophisticated.
- tucaz 7y agoI love Integromat. It can do that and anything else. Found them by accident a few months ago when I wanted to automate a few tasks and it has the right mix between configuration and programming.
