"It is easy to migrate from other tools to Power Automate.""It is Microsoft. So, you get the integration capability.""The development time for ProcessRobot is very good compared to other solutions.""Very reasonably priced.""AI Builder is a good add-on.""Its integration with SharePoint and Outlook is the most valuable. I found it very easy to use. I could do everything that I wanted very quickly, and I didn't have any complications at all. I never had a problem in using Microsoft Power Automate.""The most valuable feature is that it is pretty low-code, so you don't need much coding expertise to use it.""Its integration with the Office 365 ecosystem is most valuable. We use a lot of ready-to-use templates."

Cons
"It would be very helpful to have a simple and extensive training guide, or training model, to help learn how to work with the product.""We would like to see the overall accuracy increase from approximately 70% to perhaps 85%."

More AntWorks CMR+ Cons →

"We find the solution to be not that user-friendly, and might be using the older version, which really did not have a lot of features, so my review is mostly based on the older version.""There is an RPA feature gap between this solution and other more mature products.""One of the challenges is dealing with OCR text recognition.""The tool must be more stable.""We expect Microsoft Power Automate to work like any other RPA software, but at present, it is fairly lax, especially in the RPA space. We have a very limited set of use cases today for Microsoft Power Automate. Microsoft should make it a full-featured RPA product like other solutions that we use, such as Automation Anywhere, Blue Prism, and UiPath. This is predominantly the area that they need to improve on. Microsoft Power Automate is quite complex to use as well, especially if you want to do advanced workflows or advanced automation. The regular simple workflows are quite easy and straightforward, but the moment you want to do something complex, it is almost impossible for one of our employees to work on it.""I need to have more integration capabilities from this solution.""Any task that is automated needs to be very simple. This tool does not seem to handle complicated tasks very well.""They should include a custom plugin feature so that we can add our custom connections."
