Find out what your peers are saying about Camunda, Apache, Pega and others in Business Process Management (BPM)."This software makes it so easy and enjoyable to work with the team. Any user can learn and start using the application quickly."
"Customize workflow processes visually and interactively."
"The workflow tracker helps us to track our staff's workflow. It helps us to improve the productivity of our team."
"The feature I have found most valuable is the easy synchronization with other tools."
"The clean interface, prioritization, and private task lists aren't present in other solutions."
"The ability to access Comindware Tracker from mobile has been greatly valuable to our organization. We are often out of office and this can create timeframe and task management issues. Being able to access tasks and time tracking while on the move is a great asset."
"This solution can be useful for tracking the different stages of projects and the people working on them."
"It is perhaps the most user-friendly web forms automation software. At least, I did not find anything better while testing several others similar to it."
"The most valuable features for my client are timing and scheduling."
"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."
"We use it for specific cases, mainly secure file transfers, which are vital for us. And it works for us."
"A great feature that you seldom see in these kind of systems is the ability to use a database as trigger to launch a task. This is something I asked for a few years ago and that was added."
"I find it very user-friendly. Our IT department and other departments can seamlessly collaborate without requiring extensive training. As a business department, we particularly value this aspect, as our team doesn't consist of many IT users. However, we couldn't solely rely on a drag-and-drop approach to implement and utilize the solution within our departments."
"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."
"The most valuable feature is the drag-and-drop interface, which is very Windows-like."
"Fortra's Automate performs the job effectively and has the capability to alert us of any issues."
"There are not very many report templates, and if there were more, it would really help."
"It would be wonderful to have newer version releases more frequently, but it is quite a minor con."
"The OpenAPI is good, but it is not enough. It lacks out-of-box integrations with popular web services."
"We are using the backdated version of this software. That is why we lack of some features. I hope when we update the version, then all the problems will be solved."
"I am expecting new updates to improve the software."
"Figuring out how to integrate defined teams or groups into this system is difficult, and there are no contextual menus."
"The initial setup seemed a bit complex, and there is no great documentation."
"The initial setup can be quite slow and finicky."
"The solution has a very weak knowledge base."
"While this solution is continually improving, as it is now, the user interface could use improvement when I compare it to a product like UiPath."
"It's possible that they could use a stronger community for seeking guidance and help."
"The technical support could be better. We suffer from language barriers, as we are in Argentina."
"Sometimes when we communicate with the ERP system and there is an issue, we are not always aware of the specifics of Automate and the source of the problem."
"The workflow for variables could be better. The input and output of task-level variables could be made a little clearer in terms of passing those around from one task to another upon success, etc. Things like that could be a little easier potentially."
"Fortra's Automate is not as reliable as I would like it to be."
"There is room for improvement regarding cloud functionality; there are a few missing features, and the logging could be better, especially air logging. We can go into logging events and create our own task, but it would be nice if this were more detailed."
