How to choose an automation service provider
Pick the task first (lead routing, invoicing, onboarding, reporting), then shortlist providers that name the tools you already use. Ask for two case studies close to your task, who will build it, what happens when a connected app changes, and whether the workflows stay in your own accounts.
