Ultimate Suite

When hoping to fully embrace the digital revolution, enterprises often encounter their complex technology landscape and years— sometimes even decades—of technical and process debt. In response, we have seen countless vendors emerge with offerings that they believe will help enterprises overcome these hurdles, often ranging from process intelligence to workflow orchestration, automation, AI, and everything in between. One such vendor is UltimateSuite, a company aspiring to leverage its task mining and automation capabilities to drive operational excellence for its clients.
