How to Migrate from Microsoft Copilot Studio to Ceven

Microsoft Copilot Studio is a no-code platform for building AI agents and multi-agent workflows with enterprise connectors and knowledge. Ceven 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 & host no-code pages/apps.

This guide will walk you through the process of migrating your workflows from Microsoft Copilot Studio to Ceven, ensuring a smooth transition and highlighting the benefits of the new platform.

Migrate from Microsoft Copilot Studio to Ceven in 6 steps

  1. Inventory Your Workflows

    Start by listing all your workflows in Microsoft Copilot Studio. Focus on the outcomes they achieve rather than the specific steps. This will help you rebuild them more efficiently in Ceven.

  2. Connect Your Apps in Ceven

    Re-authorize the same apps in Ceven that you used in Microsoft Copilot Studio. Ceven supports 1,000+ integrations, making it easy to connect your existing tools.

  3. Rebuild Workflows for Outcomes

    Describe the outcomes you want to achieve in Ceven. Instead of recreating each step from Microsoft Copilot Studio, focus on the end goals and let Ceven's AI capabilities enhance your workflows.

  4. Add AI Steps and Approval Gates

    Identify areas where Microsoft Copilot Studio was brittle and add AI steps and human-approval gates in Ceven. This will make your workflows more robust and reliable.

  5. Validate in Parallel

    Run both Microsoft Copilot Studio and Ceven in parallel on real data. This allows you to compare results and ensure that the new workflows in Ceven are working as expected.

  6. Schedule and Cut Over

    Once you are confident in the Ceven workflows, schedule the final cutover. Ensure all stakeholders are informed and ready for the transition.

Why teams switch from Microsoft Copilot Studio to Ceven

Ceven connects to 1,000+ tools, allowing for more comprehensive workflow automation. Additionally, Ceven's ability to run end-to-end workflows on a schedule with AI steps and human-approval gates provides a more robust and flexible solution.

What moves over and what doesn't

When migrating from Microsoft Copilot Studio to Ceven, your workflow outcomes and the apps you've connected can be recreated.

You will need to rebuild your workflows in Ceven, which often results in more efficient and capable workflows. Ceven's advanced AI features and human-approval gates can enhance your workflows, making them more reliable and easier to manage.

Avoiding the common pitfalls

Another pitfall is not validating the new workflows in parallel with the old ones. Running both systems simultaneously on real data ensures a smooth transition and helps identify any issues before the final cutover.
