What's the difference between custom automation and Zapier?
“Zapier is great for connecting two SaaS tools when the flow is simple. Custom automation is the right answer when the workflow has branching, approvals, audit logging, or business logic that doesn't fit Zapier's model. Many of our customers run both — Zapier for the easy 80%, Xenara automation for the operational 20% that needs more.”
View in the company profileDo you replace existing tools or work with them?
“Almost always we work with what's there. We integrate with your CRM, accounting, HRIS, and SaaS — the automation orchestrates them. Replacement is only the right answer when the existing tool is the bottleneck itself.”
View in the company profileWhat about RPA (UiPath, Automation Anywhere)?
“RPA is for cases where the system you're automating has no API. We use it when we have to — most of the time, building a proper API integration is cheaper and more reliable in the long run.”
View in the company profileHow do you measure ROI?
“Time saved per week × hourly cost of the team running the workflow. Most automation engagements pay for themselves within 6–12 months and continue compounding from there.”
