We performed a comparison between Fortra's Automate and OpenText MBPM based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about UiPath, Microsoft, Automation Anywhere and others in Robotic Process Automation (RPA)."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."
"Fortra's Automate performs the job effectively and has the capability to alert us of any issues."
"The most valuable feature is the drag-and-drop interface, which is very Windows-like."
"The most valuable features for my client are timing and scheduling."
"The pricing is excellent. I would give them perfect marks in that regard."
"I actually quite liked the no-coding functionality."
"The best feature of Automate is its ease of use, which is a major selling point."
"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."
"Not just the solution's automation capabilities, but we like everything about it since we are more of a system integrator."
"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 intelligent automation feature could be improved. It's interesting because it's simple, but the automation quality isn't always good. It's easy to use, but sometimes you need to make a slight improvement to the automation, and that's not so easy."
"The OCR for Hebrew text needs to be improved."
"The technical support could be better. We suffer from language barriers, as we are in Argentina."
"The interface could be more user-friendly and easier to navigate."
"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."
"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."
"They do not encrypt passwords, so this is an issue with HIPAA compliance."
"There are shortcomings in the solution's support and documentation part."
"The user interface could be better in OpenText MBPM."
