In an interview with ETCIO.COM,  Ankur Kothari , Co-founder and CRO, Automation Anywhere discusses how the company is making automation accessible to all. Canadian professor Marshall McLuhan, who predicted the internet and the impact it would have, had famously said: As technology advances, it reverses the characteristics of every situation again and again. The age of automation is going to be the age of 'do it yourself.' How is Automation Anywhere aiding automation democratization to make automation accessible to everyone? Let me explain the problem that we are trying to solve. Every enterprise today has hundreds of systems but less 10-15% of the systems can actually talk to each other.
