We performed a comparison between Blue Prism and Robocorp based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."There are simple things you can put in place that help you understand workflow and how implementation acts."
"It is a very stable tool that allows very complex automations."
"It is not just for coders, as you can have a diagrammatic representation of the process."
"Blue Prism has a lot of flexibility to integrate with other enterprise applications"
"Blue Prism is a great enterprise and it has offered the solutions that I have been needing in order to give my organization an RPA."
"One of the most powerful features in Blue Prism is exception handling. It's one of the features that really differentiates it from other platforms."
"Its ability to talk to different systems that we have is a valuable feature. We use Pega, which is like a credit card processing system. We also use a Debit Process Manager, which is like the Visa debit application. In the bank, we have credit card and debit card sections, and we need to kind of investigate some of the transactions when customers are complaining about the charges. Blue Prism can log in to a different system to perform the exact actions that the agents are doing. This feature has been very helpful. Its ability to engage with external systems and websites is also very valuable. Each of our RPA projects could go across different systems. We have an in-house banking system. We also use the Visa network, and we have to go to different sites to do a lot of data scraping to ensure the data in our system matches the data in the Visa systems, and we just deal with some of the charges."
"We find the stability and the ease of reusing code design valuable."
"The ability to create separate organizations on this platform makes it easier to bill each of the clients separately."
"The process execution and all features are very good."
"I have worked with UiPath and Automation Anywhere previously. Robocorp offers an improved development style and support as well as flexibility of its tools. You can easily develop custom libraries in Robocorp."
"As a developer, I found it easy to integrate third-party applications with Robocorp. I have previous experience with Selenium, and I found the Robocorp framework to be accessible because it uses Python and Selenium keywords."
"It's easy to deploy bots via the API helper in Control Room. Robocorp's debugging features are also robust. It shows you a lot of data."
"It offers high scalability and enables automation in ways that haven't been possible before."
"The product has a valuable business process automation feature."
"It supports Python runtime because of that, runtime also improves."
"I would like to see bespoke dashboards allow the front-end to display what is required."
"The OCR capability, along with the connectivity with some of the legacy tools, needs to be improved."
"We would like to see intelligent process automation that integrates RPA and machine learning."
"The initial setup and deployment could be simplified."
"Blue Prism could be more scalable."
"The solution is not user-friendly. It has a very high learning curve."
"Technical support is in need of improvement."
"There are many reasons why many companies don't go for Blue Prism. It is not open, and the community addition is not available. Blue Prism provides support through partnership. You need to do a partnership with them, which is a major disadvantage. You contact a Blue Prism team, and they will schedule a meeting with you. They will give you a demo and help you set up everything, whereas with UiPath and Automation Anywhere, you can try the community edition, and if it fits your needs, you simply buy a license for that. The initial setup of Blue Prism is complex. They simply provide a PDF or documentation for you to go through it, whereas, if you go with UiPath or Automation Anywhere, they have several videos and community support to guide you. The documentation of Blue Prism is static. They don't have any sort of videos or open forums. Other tools have got a lot of community support, but Blue Prism doesn't have that. Its training is also hard to attain, and they also don't provide any certification."
"The solution could be more stable."
"I don't like the complexity of deployment."
"The platform's documentation could be better."
"An additional feature I'm looking for in Robocorp is SAP automation."
"We use the latest version of the process studio and it takes up a lot of CPU storage. In our case, this has been up to 14 GB of storage."
"There are certain libraries in Python, such as those dealing with PDF automation and word files, that require the presence of certain external dependencies in the environment to be successfully used."
"It would be better if it were more user-friendly for non-technical users. It would be better if they had some drag-and-drop features to create logic."
"The standard libraries in Robocorp should be more advanced."
