Management Tools: Compare Automation Pricing Models

When adopting a Business Process Management (BPM) or workflow platform, many companies focus on the "Per User License" price. The big shock comes 3 months later when operations gain traction, and the Automation Volume billing model drains the IT budget.

The Cost-Per-Action Trap

Some traditional tools charge for every time a "Robot" acts. If you set up an automatic welcome email and sell a lot, you get charged extra. Monday and other solutions often have very restrictive monthly limits (Actions/Runs) in their entry plans.
