Get Started

What is a manual process?

In a traditional manual process people do tasks without using modern technology or machines. They rely on their own skills and experience to get the job done. It might take longer, but it can also feel more personal.

What is an automated process?

Process automation or automated process is an approach that helps organizations simplify and streamline their business processes by eliminating human intervention and errors. Automated processes increase service delivery and quality, reduce unnecessary costs, and digitally transform an organization.

Manual Processes vs. Automated Processes : The Benefits

Manual Process
  • Approvals are done manually through email or in-person
  • Conditions are developed ad hoc by individuals
  • Tracking requests is either impossible or requires additional email or chat followup
  • Manual processes take longer to complete
  • May cause errors because crucial steps are skipped
  • Roles and responsibilities are not clearly defined leading to a lack of visibility
  • Collaboration is chaotic and not in the context of the request
Automated Process
  • Digital forms standardize the information shared
  • The system works on pre-set conditions that expedite approvals
  • Tracking shows exactly where the request is at any stage
  • Automated processes are quicker and more efficient
  • Ensures all steps are followed according to the system
  • Functional roles are defined clearly resulting in greater accountability
  • Collaboration happens within the context of the request

Manual vs Automated Process: The conclusion

Manual processes involve human effort and rely on personal skills, while automated processes use technology and machines to complete tasks more efficiently. Manual methods may offer a personal touch and flexibility but can be slower and error-prone. On the other hand, automated processes are faster and more accurate.
