Cloud Elements (discontinued) vs. IBM Cloud Pak for Business Automation

Cloud Elements shines when you want to offer multiple options to the user on a type of system, such as supporting integration to CRM and wanting to offer Dynamics, Salesforce, and HubSpot on equal footing. If you only have a single integration with a single system, using Cloud Elements adds an unnecessary layer of abstraction.

We spent more time going back and forth on the assets than it would have taken us to build them from scratch.
