They&#8217;re just as ready to go all-in on agentic. In fact, <strong>almost every respondent has already implemented it or plans to<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What makes agentic AI different is its shift from &#8220;AI assistant&#8221; to &#8220;AI operator.&#8221; These aren&#8217;t tools that just answer questions. They execute workflows, orchestrate processes across multiple systems, and make autonomous decisions to get work done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And some good news: <strong>91% of teams are taking a careful, customer-centric approach<\/strong>. They&#8217;re identifying user pain points first, then mapping agentic AI to solve those problems\u2014not just chasing the latest trend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only 9% cite no significant challenges as their agentic driver, suggesting the vast majority aren&#8217;t adopting AI for the sake of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/the-connector\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image-2-1-1.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image-2-1-1-1024x721.png\" alt='Graph showing key challenges in SaaS products that are driving product manager interest in AI agents.'\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Teams are also being intentional about measurement. Only 4% have no criteria for evaluating agentic success; the rest are focused on metrics that matter: customer satisfaction and time-to-value top the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But there\u2019s a substantial gap between this enthusiasm and agentic ROI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The same hurdles blocking integrations are blocking AI<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When asked about the top barriers to agentic AI adoption, three challenges rose to the top:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Technical complexity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Budget constraints<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Security\/privacy concerns<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same challenges we often see plaguing traditional integrations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/the-connector\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image-3-1.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Image-3-1-1024x721.png\" alt='Graph showing barriers preventing product managers from integrating AI agents into their products' class=\"wp-image-41697\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI isn&#8217;t a silver bullet that bypasses existing problems, and it won\u2019t smooth over any hiccups in your integration strategy\u2014it amplifies them. Consider what agentic AI needs to function:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Deep, reliable connectivity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Access to move data and execute workflows<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The ability to scale as usage grows<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These requirements hinge on your integration infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n    <div class=\"article__cta\">\r\n\t\t            <div class=\"article__cta-right\">\r\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"article__cta-right_image\" src=\"https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/AD_4nXcOwkKcrrTEe2h5Uh3Y0JgSO9grPIl3dfscv-VpSgbFyy4CugiH6fzvyiSO7dQTgpn3guRD2nErQYcNLFWUo7PqdmzFb56nDOKN69K2O8mlrcSC8Ahc5Zeg-E3ZQP1OLyqNFgmOPAkeycsFHeprG52GEgFrBoBrMojE7-150x150.png\"\r\n                     alt=\"\">\r\n                <div class=\"article__cta-right_content\">\r\n                    <h4>Ready to Learn More About MCP for SaaS Platforms?<\/h4>\r\n                    <p><\/p>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t                    <a class=\"article__cta-right_btn\"\r\n                       href=\"http:\/\/workato.com\/request_demo\">Request a Demo<\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t            <\/div>\r\n\t\t    <\/div>\r\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then there&#8217;s the security piece. Sophisticated integrations require sophisticated security and governance, and agentic AI amplifies that requirement. When AI agents make autonomous decisions and execute actions at scale, enterprise teams need robust controls around data access, compliance, and auditability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s a catch-22. Teams see AI as the answer to their integration problems, but they can&#8217;t implement AI effectively until those integration problems are solved.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You\u2019re only as strong as your connectivity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Successful teams aren&#8217;t just adopting AI; they&#8217;re tending to the foundation first. They understand that AI agents amplify existing value, but without strong integrations, even the most advanced AI can&#8217;t compensate for fragmented connectivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re working with unreliable API connections, inconsistent data mapping, or brittle integrations, bringing AI into the mix will just deepen the cracks. Manual fixes become automated failures at record speed, while isolated problems become widespread issues at scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But with well-architected integrations, consistent data flows, and reliable connectivity, AI <em>does<\/em> have the ability to transform everything. It autonomously <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workato.com\/agentic\/mcp-saas-platforms\">orchestrates workflows across systems<\/a>, strengthens the foundation you&#8217;ve built, and unlocks capabilities that weren&#8217;t possible before.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Workato-1-2.png\" alt=\"The differentiator doesn\u2019t lie in who adopts AI first, but who\u2019s built the right foundation to support its weight.\" class=\"wp-image-16743\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Workato-1-2.png 1000w, https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Workato-1-2-300x60.png 300w, https:\/\/blog2workato.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Workato-1-2-765x153.png 765w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Unlock AI\u2019s full potential<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The differentiator doesn\u2019t lie in who adopts AI first, but in who\u2019s built the right foundation to support its weight.
