- No-code automation builder and scheduling: Point-and-click interface for building and scheduling workflows, eliminating scripting and accelerating deployment.
- Shared credential and schedule libraries: Reusable libraries simplify administration, such as rotating passwords across hundreds of endpoints in a single step.
- Organizational tools for task management: Folders and tags streamline organization and filtering of hundreds or thousands of tasks—no complex naming conventions required.
- Task Versioning and Milestone Recovery: Automatically saves up to 200 task versions and 100 named milestones for quick restoration, enabling flexibility and control.
- Security and compliance oversight: Built on leading cloud infrastructure with an enterprise-grade security framework, Automate MFT supports SOC 2 Type 1 and HIPAA standards through built-in encryption, role-based access controls and multi-factor authentication—helping organizations protect data, monitor activity and verify delivery with confidence.
