How to Choose an Automation Implementation Partner

Choosing an automation implementation partner requires evaluating experience with your company's type of process, setup time, dependency on code, and the ability to integrate natively with the systems you already use, like CRM and ERP. The wrong choice can stall the project before it even starts.

Many companies decide to automate processes and only later realize the partner they chose does not understand the operational reality of the business, requires months of custom development, or relies on fragile spreadsheet-based integrations and go-between tools.

This leads to projects that are expensive, slow, and hard to maintain. Not to mention the risk of becoming dependent on a single vendor who understands the code but not the day-to-day operation of the business.

Pain points from choosing the wrong partner

Projects that depend on on-demand development and stall for months
Lack of knowledge about the systems the company already uses (CRM, ERP)
No support in your language with a defined response time
Dependence on intermediary tools as fragile bridges between systems
Internal teams without the autonomy to adjust automations after delivery
Costs that grow as the number of users or accounts increases

Criteria for evaluating a partner

Proven experience with operational processes, not just technical ones
Native integration capability with ERPs and CRMs used in Brazil
No-code setup, to reduce dependency on external developers
Automation execution logs, for auditing and traceability
Support in your language, with clear service channels
Transparent pricing model, with no extra cost per account or CNPJ
