Workflow Vs Process Builder in Salesforce

Workflow Rule

Workflow has been an admin’s friend for a long time. Workflows can:

• Update a field
• Send an email
• Create a Task
• Send an outbound message (communication with another system)

Process Builder is a newer tool for admins which is even more powerful. In addition to everything a workflow can do (except for sending outbound messages), you can:

• Create a record (not just Tasks!)
• Update related records
• Launch a Quick Action
• Post to Chatter
• Launch a Flow
• Call Apex code
• Submit for approval
• Invoke another process
