We performed a comparison between ABBYY Vantage and Microsoft Power Automate 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."The whole idea of designing your own templates is pretty much the bread and butter of the product, but that's really the best part because you can design flexible templates."
"Vantage is flexible and customizable. It's a low-code/no-code tool, so you don't need to get into detailed coding. You can also use AI to accomplish medium-complex tasks."
"The handwriting recognition is very good, as it can recognize handwriting done with pen and paper with at least 70% accuracy."
"The solution responds well to automatic document classifications with a 90% success rate."
"Verification station is a really good feature. It allows part-owners to be able to take a look at what comes out of the tool after a document, such as an invoice, is run through ABBYY. It also allows them to update it if there are any mistakes. So, it kind of gives them a little more control over what goes through the system and lessens the errors."
"The advantage of this tool is that it is a proven product. A lot of other products are quite new in the market."
"The solution's AI technology is genius."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its ability to extract content from documents. It is able to identify specific fields and special characters."
"Microsoft Power Automate is an easy-to-understand solution."
"The solution integrates more easily and with more tools than Automation Anywhere."
"It servers our purposes in bringing together all types of applications, being able to automate them with the right intelligent output from the data that we plugin."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Power Automate in the desktop version is web scraping because you can do a lot with it. I work in retail and you can study prices changes, which can give you a lot of information. The solution is no code which is a large advantage."
"The solution is easy to understand and to develop connectors."
"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Power Automate is the many functionalities, and ease of use. We had summer interns from college in their second year of engineering and they were able to start the building process quickly within a day."
"It has a gamut of things. Power Automate is easy to configure. It is more for a citizen developer. It is low code/no code. It is one of the easiest tools when it comes to configuration. By default, we have a lot of Microsoft products on our laptops or desktops. So, it is very easy to configure the remaining products."
"Power Automate is a better and more cost-effective solution compared to Automation tools."
"ABBYY Vantage could improve the processing of handwritten notes."
"Machine learning needs to be improved."
"Their tutorials are not enough. They can improve the tutorials and maybe add more examples in their tutorials. Currently, if you want to learn ABBYY technology, it is very difficult. There are just a few resources, such as YouTube channels and blogs. There are not many resources for learning ABBYY."
"The is a long time between application updates."
"This solution should have better integration with RPA solutions such as Blue Prism."
"In the future, I would like to see integration with Google Sheets."
"We would like the workflow building within this solution to be more transparent, which would allow us to model the process."
"Since we are using a trial version, we don't have administration access to create a tenant to integrate my OCR series with Postman."
"They should include a custom plugin feature so that we can add our custom connections."
"It would be good to have some kind of on-premises solution for BPMN users, but I don't think Microsoft will ever go back to the on-premises solution. They all train their clients to use their online services. It is easy, but it doesn't follow the industry-wide standards. I can only use the processes that Microsoft gives us. I can't map a business process by using other standards or notations, such as Business Process Management (BPM). I have to use whatever Microsoft gives us. I would like to have support for some standards because if we decide to use another BPM tomorrow, we will have to remap everything in notation to transfer from this solution. This is the only block or obstacle that I see in using this solution. It is closed in its infrastructure."
"It should work better for Angular websites, as it has a lot of problems."
"I would like to see better data integration with different sources."
"It would be great if it was able to integrate more with various other platforms. It would make development easier."
"What needs improvement in WinAutomation by Softomotive is its stability. Stability is quite important to me. Another area for improvement in the solution is robot scheduling because it's not 100% accurate, in particular, it's 90% accurate. The monitoring of the robot could also be improved because it's not very straightforward, and you have to look in a few places or at least two places which means that monitoring is not a one-glance process."
"On the governance side, there isn't enough documentation on how to govern Power Automate. People just build bespoke automation, which then becomes a problem point for different companies."
"The solution could offer more specific training. There should be more examples of what the functions can do and more instructions and explanations to the process."
