How to Migrate from Axiom.ai to Ceven
Axiom.ai is a no-code browser automation tool that helps you build bots to automate website and SaaS tasks. Ceven, on the other hand, is an AI workflow automation platform that connects to 1,000+ tools, runs end-to-end workflows on a schedule with AI steps and human-approval gates, and can build and host no-code pages/apps.
Migrating from Axiom.ai to Ceven involves rebuilding your workflows and re-authorizing your connected apps. This guide will walk you through the process, ensuring a smooth transition.
Migrate from Axiom.ai to Ceven in 6 steps
Inventory Your Workflows
Start by documenting all your Axiom.ai workflows. Focus on the outcomes they achieve rather than the specific steps. This will help you identify what needs to be rebuilt in Ceven.
Connect Your Apps in Ceven
In Ceven, connect the same apps and services you used in Axiom.ai. This ensures that your workflows can interact with the same systems and data.
Rebuild Your Workflows
Describe the outcomes you want to achieve in Ceven. Instead of recreating each Axiom.ai workflow one-for-one, consider consolidating them into fewer, more capable workflows that leverage Ceven's AI steps and human-approval gates.
Add AI Steps and Approval Gates
Identify areas where Axiom.ai's automation was brittle or error-prone. In Ceven, add AI steps to handle complex logic and human-approval gates to ensure critical decisions are reviewed before execution.
Validate in Parallel
Run both Axiom.ai and Ceven workflows in parallel on real data. This allows you to compare results and ensure that Ceven's workflows achieve the desired outcomes before fully transitioning.
Schedule and Cut Over
Once you've validated that Ceven's workflows are working as expected, schedule a cutover date. Ensure that all critical workflows have human-approval gates on writes to systems of record to prevent data loss or corruption.
Why teams switch from Axiom.ai to Ceven
Teams often switch from Axiom.ai to Ceven because Ceven offers a more comprehensive automation platform. While Axiom.ai excels at browser automation, Ceven provides a broader range of features, including AI steps, human-approval gates, and the ability to build and host no-code pages/apps.
Ceven's integration with 1,000+ tools allows for more complex and capable workflows. Additionally, Ceven's scheduling and approval features provide better control and oversight, making it a more robust solution for teams looking to automate their processes.
What moves over and what doesn't
When migrating from Axiom.ai to Ceven, you'll need to rebuild your workflows from scratch. This means that the specific automation steps and logic you've set up in Axiom.ai won't directly transfer to Ceven. However, the outcomes and goals of your workflows can be recreated in Ceven.
Connected apps and services can be re-authorized in Ceven, ensuring that your workflows can interact with the same systems. However, any custom scripts or complex logic will need to be reimplemented in Ceven's environment.
Avoiding the common pitfalls
One common pitfall is trying to recreate every Axiom.ai workflow one-for-one in Ceven. Instead, focus on the outcomes and consider consolidating workflows to leverage Ceven's more advanced features. This can lead to more efficient and capable automation.
Another pitfall is not validating workflows in parallel. Running both Axiom.ai and Ceven workflows simultaneously on real data ensures that you can identify and address any issues before fully transitioning. Always include human-approval gates on critical workflows to prevent errors.
Frequently asked
Can Ceven automatically import my Axiom.ai workflows?
No, Ceven does not support automatic import of Axiom.ai workflows. You will need to rebuild your workflows in Ceven, which often results in fewer, more capable workflows that leverage Ceven's advanced features.
What happens to my connected apps during the migration?
You will need to re-authorize your connected apps in Ceven. This ensures that your workflows can interact with the same systems and data as they did in Axiom.ai.
How long does the migration process typically take?
The migration process can vary depending on the complexity of your workflows and the number of connected apps. Generally, it involves inventorying your workflows, connecting your apps, rebuilding your workflows, adding AI steps and approval gates, validating in parallel, and scheduling the cutover. This process can take several weeks to a few months.
