Agentic orchestration: Enterprise AI organizations have a deployment problem, not a platform problem — and most are calling chatbots agents

VentureBeat · 3 months ago · 41 ● 4 sources

Anthropic's Claude platform dominates enterprise agent deployments with 40% of organizations choosing it as their primary orchestration platform, more than double any competitor. However, 71% of enterprises report that a quarter or fewer of their deployed "agents" are true multi-step orchestrated workflows rather than single-prompt chatbot wrappers, despite defining success by reliable multi-step execution. Enterprises plan to address this gap by building hybrid control planes that combine provider-native platforms with external orchestration tools they own, driven by fears of vendor lock-in.
