Our longstanding customers will know we’ve never really been into jargon here at MJT. Jargon in the IT industry tends to come and go. And there’s something quite amusing about a term that pops up and is touted as being some amazing new thing when it simply describes something we’ve been doing here at MJT Net Ltd for 20 years! On the other hand any term that helps to describe what we do is useful and I suppose it’s nice to know that finally, after all this time, what we do in our little niche of the IT world now has a name: Robotic Process Automation or RPA.<\/p>\n
So those of you who have been using Macro Scheduler for a while know what RPA is, even if you’ve never called it that.<\/p>\n
Robotic Process Automation tools allow you to create “bots” (we’ve always called them macros) to automate business processes (often by simulating a user). With RPA we automate repetitive tasks – taking the robot out of the human – freeing people up for more value-adding activities.<\/p>\n
Our customers have been automating their processes robotically for years, ever since Macro Scheduler was first released way back in 1997. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
