Why Aria Workflow

Automate and enforce proprietary business rules and practices

Construct complementary rules and processes within Aria Billing Cloud to support your unique requirements for billing. Use and re-use logic, flows, interfaces and datasets to craft workflows. Remove manual intervention from business processes.

No-code approach for continuous optimization

Once trained on Aria Workflow, you can create, modify and re-use workflows using a non-programming visual-builder interface. Continue to optimize business processes in an agile way. Aria support assists with workflow verification and launch.

Embedded seamless access

Aria Workflow is embedded within Aria Billing Cloud so all infrastructure management, security, SLAs and APIs are naturally extended and available to Aria Workflow. This eliminates or reduces reliance and risk on sub-optimal middleware layers.

Save time using Aria’s Workflow Application Library

A growing application library provides access to common workflows built by and for Aria’s community that can be further modified to suit your requirements.
