Find out what your peers are saying about UiPath, Microsoft, Automation Anywhere and others in Robotic Process Automation (RPA)."We have tried other RPA solutions like UiPath or Automation Anywhere. They are fantastic products but complex, and it's hard to understand everything. It would be best if you had a skilled developer or several. Automate is easy to implement, administer, and use. It's appropriate for us because our cases are simple and easy to automate. We don't need complicated tools with many features; We prefer to get a significant ROI quickly."
"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."
"I find it very user-friendly. Our IT department and other departments can seamlessly collaborate without requiring extensive training.

However, we couldn't solely rely on a drag-and-drop approach to implement and utilize the solution within our departments."
"Fortra's Automate performs the job effectively and has the capability to alert us of any issues."

"The vendor is currently working on a solution that allows us to automatically create a process that is based on a document that we receive via email."
"The interface could be more user-friendly and easier to navigate."
"The documentation for errors needs improvement as many of the error messages we receive are very vague."
