Kryon RPA Other Solutions Considered

Damilola Adeleye - PeerSpot reviewer
Business Automation Developer at Polaris Bank Nigeria Plc

We had some back and forth using the setting tools of the RPA solution and noticed that other RPAs were costly. We found that Kryon RPA was cost-effective and had features other apps didn't have.

We also looked at Blue Prism. We just briefly looked at some demos, then we even got pricing, but we were sold from the get-go with the Kryon tool because it was so inexpensive and easy to purchase. It was very easy to learn. We were self-taught before Kryon actually came onsite and did any training for us. We had the demo for a month or two. We played around with it. The demo was very easy to learn, which was a huge benefit for us because then we didn't need to hire an expert who knew the tool already. We could just go and use it. 

Kryon is a fairly new company comparatively versus the other players in the space. There are still just the learning too.

Kryon is the most simplistic solution and the easiest to use, but the con that I've heard from other people is that the competitors are, in general, more powerful tools. However, with everything, we've thrown at it so far, we haven't found a use case where it hasn't been able to accommodate, which has been pretty impressive to me. I thought maybe we'd hit a brick wall because it just doesn't have that function or logic to do something, but it's pretty amazing what simple, basic bot programming can do with some logic.

We had requests out to four vendors: Kryon, UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and Blue Prism. Kryon did not end up being the most financially inexpensive, but it did make the most sense based on the ability of having business users develop, not IT people. The product bridges the gap in terms of ease of use for business users with no tech background, compared to a UiPath or Blue Prism. With those solutions, you have to be a .NET developer to use them. Kryon allows people who are business-oriented people to use it.

Kryon came into the picture before I did. In the past, I know that we informally looked at a couple other products, but we never went in-depth with them. Once we picked Kryon, we stuck with Kryon. 

We did talk to WalkMe a little bit.

Initially, our CIO came up with the idea and brought Ernst Young in to implement it in our organization. In the first meeting we had with EY, they put two RPA systems on the table, Kryon and another which I don't remember. They gave the pros and cons for each solution and together we selected Kryon. One of the factors was that it's an Israeli company, so we thought it would be easier for us in terms of approachability, language and work hours. We believed it would be easier for us to use.

We evaluated a few solutions but Kryon was the platform we chose. We evaluated UiPath and Kofax. We found Kryon to be a good platform so we engaged it. It is easy to use, no integrations were required, there are no plugins to download. Our platform includes mainframe and client-server.

At the time we were evaluating, UiPath was not really working out well. If we were to compare now it's a different scenario, but two years back it was a nightmare.

Director of Process Engineering at a healthcare company with 5,001-10,000 employees

We evaluated Automation Anywhere, Blue Prism, and UiPath a little bit.

The biggest difference was that Kryon had Process Discovery and the ability to discover your processes across your base, and the others did not. That was a big differentiating factor for us. Automation Anywhere was starting to come out with its cloud deployment so users won't have to deploy everything internally. That was something that sticks. But in terms of the rest of the capabilities, they were relatively at parity.

Automation Anywhere was one of the solutions we looked at. There were others but it’s been a while since we went through all of them.

We are using UiPath in conjunction with Kryon. I feel that Kryon has a better image recognition than UiPath.

I have tried a few solutions and Kryon is the most user-friendly.

We checked several alternatives but decided to go with Kryon due to their product capabilities and the local support.

We evaluated Automation Anywhere and Blue Prism. I wasn't involved in all of that process, but the biggest thing in our decision to go with Kryon was that IT didn't need to own it. Although our IT has it right now, a process improvement team could have actual business users building processes. It can't just be them, because we have to have oversight with the .NET stuff. But with the easiness of it, we just had to go with Kryon.

Kryon was our choice. Our project manager brought in Kryon team for a demo. Once we saw the features, we did a test with their training specialist, then we were convinced that we could utilize this for our requirements. We didn't look at any other options at that time.

Director of Information Management and Development at a financial services firm with 501-1,000 employees

We did not evaluate other vendors. We quit using Selenium and, once we got Kryon, we said to ourselves, "Why not try to use it in place of Selenium?" It turned out to be much more useful and much cheaper, because we already had the license so we can use it whenever we want. Selenium was expensive and it only gave us certain aspects. So all in all, going with Kryon was a good thing to do.

Automation Anywhere was the other one they were considering. I think they looked at a couple of others, but that was before I was here. I saw the paperwork comparing the final two and they were Kryon and Automation Anywhere.

We checked out Blue Prism and Automation Anywhere. Even though we have deployed Kryon, we are still checking other solutions. Maybe they will be valuable in different processes. 

We decided that Kryon would be the best, mainly because they have the most installations and production in Israel. They have quite a lot of experience.
