Delivers increased productivity and streamlines fraud processing in banking, though technical support could be faster

Before AutomationEdge, we had to hire coder-level experts with Java or Python knowledge. This approach took considerable time and required error handling to automate processes. With this tool, all processes are automatically handled with errors, and no-code automation is available. The cost for a developer is now significantly lower. Previously, we hired highly efficient developers with high salary packages. The license cost of 5 to 10 lakhs per year for one person to automate is equivalent to a person's annual salary. With the license and a developer hired at 3 to 5 lakhs, we can automate 40 to 50 processes.

Automating processes has saved time and improved communication

Something frustrates me concerning Microsoft Power Automate, and that is about the integration with Microsoft Forms and Excel. The issue now is that I don't get my responses synchronized automatically, and that frustrates me a lot. If the team could take this as feedback, the synchronization of the feedback responses from the forms and the Excel sheets should be seamless. This synchronization issue happens frequently, and it causes a lot of delays in the sense that the mails that ought to go out to the agents fail at some point. I have to reload these responses so that the agents can get their responses as when submitted. What I notice is that the responses don't go out without proper synchronization, so I reload the field responses, and this works afterwards. I would say probably a seamless walkthrough process for new users would be beneficial. For those using it for the first time, a seamless walkthrough process would be fine.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The support from the vendor is very good."

"The initial setup was easy and straightforward."

"It is a valuable tool for developing efficient solutions, especially in finance and banking."

"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 ability to automate our processes with external plug-ins and zero code is the most valuable feature."

"The studio design is fine compared to other similar products. There is nothing extraordinary about it, but at the same time, there are not any negatives."

"AutomationEdge has shown the most productive impact, and the productivity was excellent before, and now it can increase by 20 to 30% more with AI implementation."

"Attended versus unattended automation in AutomationEdge has benefited my organization significantly."

More AutomationEdge pros

"You can create a flow, and it can be shared across different environments."

"The best feature of the tool is that it is generic, so it allows one to do as he wishes."

"The best features of Microsoft Power Automate are its ability to switch from one app to another without user interaction, so you can automate a task, take data from one source, process it, and then output it in another format or have it as an input for another app, and also to transform data and have that done with minimal human interaction."

"It's an intuitive product. It's not overly technical."

"The most valuable feature is that it is pretty low-code, so you don't need much coding expertise to use it."

"I like the scalability option and the simplicity, the way we can really use the interface to easily scale up."

"The approval feature is the most important feature. We also use the flow history feature. It is a very useful product as compared to other products. We can automate easily when a list is updated. We can also handle approval-related issues and integrate it with emails."

"There is an exhaustive amount of templates that users have access to."

More Microsoft Power Automate pros

Cons

"AutomationEdge's primary issue is its price point, especially compared to other products."

"The installation process could improve. It was difficult to complete."

"Regarding stability and reliability, AutomationEdge is mid-range. When compared with other tools such as Automation Anywhere and UIPath, they are more stable than AutomationEdge."

"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."

"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."

"They could provide more technologies for IT and security to enhance machine learning capabilities."

"The price of the solution could be improved."

"With the solution, customizing software can be time-consuming."

More AutomationEdge cons

"The solution could use some more advanced AI tools. It's one of the solution's only weaknesses."

"I was working on it for around three days and then took a break of about two days. When I went back to it, all of the Excel, and all the Excel functions, just disappeared. Completely vanished. When I looked up the help, it said that sometimes that happens when you're not connected to the internet."

"It should be more stable, and their technical support should be faster. It should also have more integration with tools from other vendors, such as SAP and Oracle, and technology partners, such as Salesforce."

"The solution could offer more specific training. There should be more examples of what the functions can do and more instructions and explanations to the process."

"The coding part could be improved. Sometimes, there are triggers that require coding."

"There are some bugs or intermittent behavior in the Excel activities that require using workarounds."

"There is a limitation in setting up loops, where it does not support multiple conditions."

"Its licensing model should be improved. The pricing should be more visible and transparent. When you consume services, there are too many criteria to figure out how much it is going to cost you to use the product to its full extent. It should also support visual process editing, which is a standard feature for BPMN 2.0 compliance. They should improve the visual designer."

More Microsoft Power Automate cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If you are looking for a budget solution, you can consider AE. It has all the features. Scaling it is way easier because of the cost itself."

"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."

"Pricing can be made better. Currently, I think the pricing is based on the market. The pricing also depends on the business partners that offer you the solution."

"The product is available at the lowest price."

"Price-wise, AutomationEdge is pretty affordable, making it not so expensive when you compare this with other tools in the market."

"I give the price of the solution a nine out of ten."

"It is expensive but its value can justify the cost."

"This is a cost-effective RPA solution."

"I don't deal with the financial side. I know that we pay for a per-user license. It is probably less than $20 a user, but I am not sure about the exact figures."

"It's more fragmented licensing, where every little thing that you add, you get an extra license cost."

"There should be increased transparency about which features attend the pricing."

"We have it on our system. I don't really know if we need a separate license."

"It is free with Office 365 subscription."

"Initially, we had a Microsoft account for Office 365. Later, we discovered that our license included access to Power Automate at no additional cost. There was a small fee for additional features, but it was negligible compared to the benefits. There are not any additional fees required to use the solution."

"It had by far the fairest licensing on the market. For the money, you got a very good value."
