Pliant’s Free ‘Community Edition’ Released

Enterprise-Grade Automation for Individual Users and Smaller Companies

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pliant, a leading provider of advanced API orchestration and automation solutions, today announced Pliant Community Edition. Community Edition includes the full feature set of Pliant’s enterprise product with usage allowances geared towards smaller companies and individual users. It’s offered in conjunction with access to the Pliant HUB, an online community where users can share and collaborate on new ways to leverage automation and advance their organizations and careers.

CEO Vess Bakalov explains, “Enabling anyone at any skill level to harness the power of a flexible, intelligent automation solution was always a guiding principle. We carried that idea through the development of the enterprise-level platform, which is a highly visual, low code, easy-to-use, powerful solution. But fully realizing our objective meant making it available to everyone. With Community Edition, we’ve done that.”

Like the Enterprise version of Pliant, Community Edition will provide users access to Pliant’s vast library of industry APIs, which are fully broken down into visual drag-and-drop work blocks to easily create automation workflows. Community Edition will include workflow templates, automation scheduling, reporting, step-by-step interactive product guides, and will even include an optional live onboarding session for new users.

“Providing a full-featured free version of our platform may seem counterintuitive for a for-profit business,” says CEO Vess Bakalov, “but it speaks to the confidence we have in the value users get from it. Whether it’s high-value repeatable tasks or mundane one-time events, once a person solves a single problem with Pliant, it becomes one of the first platforms they think of to solve many other problems. That’s why we didn’t simply offer a trial or limit the feature set. We want people to have the full power of the platform and be automation heroes to their organizations.”

Pliant Community Edition is available now. Those who seek additional information or wish to register for a free account and a live onboarding session can do so at: https://pliant.io/platform/community-edition/.
