How catworkx helps brainbits and global leader in vehicle glass repair reduce time to migrate automation rules by 90% with JMWE

"JMWE was an absolute game-changer, offering the flexibility of both no-code and coding options, and its structured migration functionality saved us not just time, but also the cost and effort of additional manpower."

catworkx, a leading Atlassian Platinum Solution Partner, implemented JMWE for brainbits GmbH, and a global leader in vehicle glass repair to consolidate and streamline their workflow management. Both companies faced challenges using multiple workflow apps and were looking for a single robust, efficient solution to reduce complexity in the cloud. JMWE's combination of no-code and coding capabilities, along with its smooth migration journey proved to be a game-changer for these projects, saving significant time and resources.

Global leader in vehicle glass repair: Cloud automation migration completed in 4 Hours instead of 50 with JMWE

A global leader in vehicle glass repair and replacement services, required a seamless migration to the cloud while consolidating multiple workflow apps into one centralized solution. Having several automation apps in their instance was not only costly but also complicated the migration process. JMWE was chosen for its comprehensive feature set, which combined no-code, and coding functionalities, making it the ideal replacement for their existing tools.

"We converted around 100 workflow functions across other apps to JMWE, then comfortably confirmed and adjusted them for Cloud using JMWE’s post-migration capabilities. 

Another 150 functions were already implemented in JMWE, which meant we didn't have to make them Cloud-ready in advance, saving us a lot of time."

The ability to migrate existing functions with minimal adjustments was critical for the client. The JMWE post-migration page allowed the team to address each workflow function systematically, ensuring smooth transitions without the need for extensive manual intervention. This structured approach cut down the time to migrate automation rules to just four hours, compared to what would have taken approximately 50 hours without JMWE.

brainbits: Cutting costs by consolidating workflow management with JMWE

As brainbits, a digital agency known for its expertise in web development, IT consulting, and digital solutions, prepared to migrate to the cloud, they encountered a challenge familiar to many businesses: managing multiple workflow apps that added unnecessary complexity and cost. With various tools in place to handle different aspects of workflow management, their administrators were facing redundant automations and cumbersome app maintenance. Recognizing the need for a streamlined approach, brainbits turned to catworkx, whose successful experience with JMWE made it the ideal solution for their migration.

Catworkx recommended consolidating all workflow functions onto JMWE to simplify processes, reduce licensing costs, and improve operational efficiency.

"Migrating to JMWE enabled brainbits to simplify workflow management, save at least €4K a year on license costs, and create consistency across projects."

With JMWE's flexibility, brainbits could replace multiple workflow apps with one comprehensive solution, easing the workload for administrators who no longer needed to navigate multiple tools to complete tasks.

This consolidation had an immediate impact, allowing brainbits to maintain consistent workflows across projects, eliminate redundancies, and ensure that administrators could focus on higher-value tasks. By centralizing workflows on JMWE, brainbits achieved both cost savings and a smoother transition to the cloud, making their operations more efficient and sustainable in the long term.

Results: JMWE cuts migration time by 90%

By implementing JMWE, catworkx enabled their clients to achieve significant time and cost savings during their migrations. Key results include:

  • 90% Reduction in automation migration time: JMWE reduced the time required to migrate one workflow function from >30 minutes to just three minutes, saving substantial time across the migration project.
  • Cost savings on manpower: Reduced reliance on extra personnel during migration, cutting the total time spent on migrating automations from about 50 hours to just 4 hours.

"JMWE helped us cut migration time from hours to minutes per function. This saved us not just time, but also the cost of additional manpower, especially when migrations have to be completed within tight time windows."
