Workflow Designer is a tool to create high level business and IT processes and manage it. Workflow shows a intuitive graphical representation of conditional logic, task initiation, etc.

• Deploy single task to multiple computers on a network or manage deployment of multiple tasks through the deployment manager.
• Deployment Manager allows you to create groups, initiate, maintain and monitor old and new tasks to a particular group or individual computer on the network, schedule the remote tasks, get the status of the remote tasks run, get email notifications and clean up tasks from the remote machine.

A new feature is 'System Logs' capability that provides you with a single database of all events in your automation environment. Any changes made to the task, errors, deployment events, workflow creations or any other actions can be viewed in the System Log. It can help you identify and diagnose the source of a problem, track changes to your automation system and even help you predict potential problems. System Logs can be exported to a .csv file and can be filtered by Date and Type of the event..
