The different courses are well defined, easily searchable, and the titles are useful. The content can get a bit long, and theoretical from time to time but mostly they try to keep it to bite-sized chunks with small quizzes to help you retain what you just read.

It emulates human interactions with other computer interface systems so that it can work well in any sphere with smart specialists. Maybe, in some industries with many monotonous tasks like retail, banking, or insurance, it's more popular, but the accessibility of low-code and no-code solutions has led to their implementation in many spheres.

Workflow automation is led by systems. They never get tired or exhausted; they never have family problems or anything else that distracts them from work. Systems run 24/7, and complete their tasks on time, and organizations don't need to stop their work and solve problems connected to human errors. As a result, industries run smoothly. Of course, sometimes systems break, but even in these cases, businesses work better than they used to.
