Virto Workflow Automation - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

Virto Workflow Activities Kit adds a library of more than 270 no-code workflow actions to SharePoint Designer on SharePoint Server (on-premises), letting teams automate business processes without writing custom workflow code.

After installation, the additional activities appear inside SharePoint Designer next to the standard SharePoint workflow actions and can be combined in the same way. The kit also supports workflow design in Visual Studio and Visio.

The action library covers a broad range of automation scenarios:

- Communication: send rich HTML email notifications and reminders, SMS messages through supported gateways, and fax.

- Lists and content: create, update and manage SharePoint sites, lists and document libraries; copy, move and convert files and folders.

- Permissions and security: set permissions on items, lists and sites, including stopping and restoring permission inheritance.

- Active Directory: work with Active Directory users, groups and membership.

- Data and metadata: handle managed metadata, dictionaries and arrays; read and write values across items.

- Integration: run SQL queries, send HTTP requests, and call custom code actions to connect with external systems.

- Utilities: date and time calculations, text manipulation and conversion, and image and file operations.

The kit is built for on-premises SharePoint Server and supports SharePoint Server 2013, 2016, 2019 and Subscription Edition. Solutions deploy at the web application scope and are compatible with classic and modern pages.

Organizations across real estate, legal, healthcare, higher education, industrial engineering, government and transportation use the kit to extend what SharePoint Designer workflows can do on their existing on-premises farms.
