Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The ability to automate our processes with external plug-ins and zero code is the most valuable feature.""It helps us with cost optimization and easy implementation.""If we want to change your processes, we can code it from scratch, making it a beneficial feature of the product.""The support from the vendor is very good.""The chatbot that they have is most valuable. It is one of the best features because they own it, and they don't need to integrate with other parties to have a chatbot. This is one of the main features. The rest of the features are common to all RPA tools or vendors available in the market.""The initial setup was easy and straightforward.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...I rate the technical support of the solution a nine out of ten.""The product's most valuable feature is the executor."

"What I like best about Blue Prism Cloud is that it's secure, robust, and has 24 x 7 support available. I also find the solution quick and intelligent. Even a non-coder can easily use it.""It is an easily scalable solution.""The most valuable feature of Blue Prism's Virtual Workforce is that it is quite stable.""If I look at the top four, I believe it is far more user-friendly than the other competition.""Blue Prism offers the whole package for LPR developers. It's a useful tool to automate anything. As an LPR developer, I think the most important feature is that it lets you get anything into blocks of code that you can use anywhere.""This product has additional functionality over Blue Prism Cloud Enterprise.""I would say that the stability of Blue Prism is superior to any of the competing products because of the maintainability of the features and the openness of the tool.""The ease of building automation and the development environment"

Cons
"With other automation solutions in the market, we can simulate the process in our notebooks where the solution creates the code for us, but with AutomationEdge we can't do this.""With the solution, customizing software can be time-consuming.""We cannot use extra modules while working with AutomationEdge. It crashes if we have lots of data to process in Excel.""The price of the solution could be improved.""They could provide more technologies for IT and security to enhance machine learning capabilities.""AutomationEdge's ecosystem has shortcomings and needs improvement. When we compare AutomationEdge to other RPA tools in our company, we find that it has a very minor online community.""The ease of use is the main thing on which they really have to focus. If they want to go against the giants, it should be improved in ease of use, and it should be more user-friendly. It would be helpful because everyone should be empowered irrespective of whether they know how to code or not. They should enhance its user interface and make it more intuitive.""In the future, they should have a similar version for the cloud and on-premises, and the installation should be flawless within few minutes."

More AutomationEdge Cons →

"The AI part is currently missing in Blue Prism Studio... It would be good if the AI part is included in Blue Prism Studio, which can make it much more efficient and good to work.""Blue Prism should adopt a low-code approach. Most RPA vendors only provide what they call a "form builder." A low-code designer would enable us to build a custom UI.""The product’s pricing needs improvement.""Selecting the right business processes that are stable enough to automate can be challenging.""Blue Prism could be more efficient in its resource use. Having one LPR agent per virtual machine wastes resources. If we could execute many applications at the same time, it would improve and optimize the resource used.""Lacking advance features like CIO and optical character recognition""There are a few smart services that are not available in Blue Prism. For example, Excel sheets that are converted into a CS sheet have limitations with the number of columns when imported. This could be improved.""Blue Prism might consider adding package options to allow users to come onboard in different ways that meet their needs rather than buying in to the whole package."
