Not Just for Testing: Using Ranorex Studio for Process Automation

Organizations today face multiple challenges, including stringent compliance requirements, a global shortage of workers and trends toward remote work. In this environment, many are turning to robotic process automation (RPA) to improve efficiency, as well as increase customer satisfaction and reduce risk. 

What kinds of tasks can be automated? 

RPA is ideal for predictable, repeatable, and rule-based processes, especially those that have structured data inputs such as spreadsheets or database files. Examples of these processes include:

• Data entry, backup, and transfer
• Invoice and order processing
• New employee onboarding
• Inventory management
• Customer support and call center operations
• Credit card processing
• Claims administration

If you are already using Ranorex Studio for test automation, then applying it for robotic process automation is a great way to get extra value from your existing licenses. Ranorex Studio’s test automation tools  can easily be applied to perform repetitive tasks 24/7. Ranorex is especially useful for automating workflows for legacy applications that may not have an API, or for third-party applications.
