We performed a comparison between Blue Prism Cloud 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 solution is very complete. It's a good solution, for the kind of features that they offer."
"Its AI features allow customers to find specific documents via an index."
"With Blue Prism, I like the feature that you build, I don't know the exact name now, but blocks or standards can be reduced later. You configure, for example, the CRM system, and you create a standardized manner of inputting data into the CRM system that you can reuse later. I'm not sure what that's called, but I enjoy it whether it's a feature or not."
"The user performance is the most valuable feature."
"The platform is user-friendly and easy to learn in a low-code environment."
"Once it does the monitor, it collects the respective data and creates an output that is required for reconfiguration."
"If I look at the top four, I believe it is far more user-friendly than the other competition."
"The most valuable feature of a non-programmer is diagrams. Someone from an IT background can find it easier to start automation."
"The best feature of the tool is that it is generic, so it allows one to do as he wishes."
"Overall, it is a great service at the given price. It is very modern, and it integrates in a great way with pretty much anything. It is also fast."
"The solution is comparatively quick to deploy for making smaller automation processes."
"So far, the tech support has provided me with good enough support and knowledge."
"It helps with the feedback mechanism, where we need to determine the relevant team and obtain their email addresses."
"Good core applications."
"In just in one click, we can see any documentation, etc., that we need. It makes it very easy to navigate."
"We have talked to Microsoft. We're a large company and we're talking to Microsoft on a regular basis. We have a partner we talk to when it comes to Automate. We are absolutely satisfied with technical support."
"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."
"Having more AI functionality would be an improvement."
"The cost is a bit high. Other tools are much cheaper."
"Blue Prism is slightly difficult for the non-technical user."
"The product’s pricing needs improvement."
"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."
"The product’s licensing cost is expensive compared to other tools in the market."
"The pricing of the solution could be improved. It's a bit expensive right now. They should work to make it more competitive."
"The stability of the product is not very good and can even fail with simple projects."
"I think the language Microsoft Power Automate uses when you do expressions could be better. What they use is not a popular programming language. It would be better for Microsoft to find a more popular programming language, such as Python. It would take away the whole no-code aspect of the solution but you don't need to write that many lines of code to improve something in a process. Instead of no-code, they could be a low-code environment."
"The integration of our system into Power Automate was a bit tricky. We had to put a data lake in place before automating anything because we were not very structured in terms of data. Our major issue was cleaning up the data."
"Enhancing Power Automate to work synchronously instead of asynchronously would eliminate the need for additional coding, saving time in project implementation."
"The BPM component needs improvement."
"Their OCR capabilities are not as evolved as the other tools."
"This solution should be more resilient, with robots more capable of recovering after an error."
"It can have customizations like enterprise solutions. In the approval section, there should be an option to reassign approval to some other employee. It would be good if we are able to create custom tables by linking to an item, and there is an integration with the HTML table through HTTP calls or Swagger connectors."
