Run work in the cloud and inside your network
Cloud containers run 24/7 in Stepwork’s cloud. Local containers run on Windows and Mac desktops, right next to your internal and on-prem systems. Every run lands in the same record.
Cloud container or local container
Same flows. Same run record. Different place to run. Cloud is where Stepwork scales. Personal and organization containers come by default, and you create team containers when a group needs its own machine. Local runs on one Windows or Mac desktop while that machine is on, and reaches what that machine can reach.

Personal, organization, and team containers
One machine per computer
Three cloud containers
Personal and organization come by default. Create team containers when a group needs its own machine.
PersonalKeep this machine private to you
A personal cloud container is a private machine in the cloud. Use it for sensitive or high-access tasks that should not share a screen with the rest of the organization. Your runs stay on your container. Other people run on theirs at the same time.
OrganizationYour own cloud, not a shared screen
An organization container is a shared cloud machine for company-wide work. You can create more than one. Each is one screen and one active run at a time. People who can open that container can watch the live view. They do not each get a copy of the run. Use several company-wide containers to separate and triage different streams of work.
TeamRun your own work on your cloud
A team cloud container is a shared machine for one group's flows. Finance work can run on Finance's container instead of mixing with company-wide or personal work. Admins create these containers so the organization can scale by team.
