When the IT processes you rely on fall apart, your entire business suffers. The costs of downtime continue to rise; in 2010, one minute of downtime was estimated to cost a company $5,600; in 2016, that same minute will cost your business nearly $9,000. Simple errors like a file arriving late or a piece of equipment failing but not being noticed can interrupt workflow and cause costly problems down the road.
To keep everything running smoothly, automation is key. As artificial intelligence technology continues to improve, companies have more options than ever to automate many tasks in their business, allowing reports and notifications to alert them to problems, but otherwise getting back to the real business of running their company.
