# Which business process management platforms connect multiple systems and keep data flowing automatically between departments?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Hey G2 users, I’m researching which <a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/business-process-management">business process management platforms</a> connect multiple systems and keep data flowing automatically between departments. This is where BPM tools start to separate: some are connector-heavy, some are orchestration-heavy, and some are strongest around documents.</p><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">In the<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/categories/business-process-management"> </a>BPM category, I’m seeing a few different paths:</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/microsoft-power-automate/reviews">Microsoft Power Automate</a> is the connector-heavy option for Microsoft 365, external APIs, Slack, and CRM workflows.</li>

This is really an integration question wearing a BPM costume. The workflow engine is rarely the bottleneck, the connectors are. Before you fall for a slick process designer, check whether it talks to your specific systems natively or whether every connection is a custom API project. Which systems, exactly, do you need it to bridge? That answer eliminates more options than any feature list will.
