Automation and AI integration enhance performance and user experience
The improvements or enhancements I would like to see in Blue Prism Cloud revolve around further developing server-client architecture, focusing on centralized control for remote agents. I believe more capabilities in that area could be beneficial. At the moment, I don't recall any specific features or functionalities missing from Blue Prism Cloud that come to mind. In terms of complexity, I find that Blue Prism Cloud is somewhat straightforward to use. Flexibility-wise, it engages well with Microsoft-based technologies. However, there are challenges with OCR capabilities that remain an issue. While there are readily available features that work well, the effectiveness does depend significantly on the type of use case I am implementing.

Frees up employee time but can't run when computer system is locked
Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks. It would be better if, when we have scheduled a scenario, it would log into the system automatically.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"There is no latency in the product."
"The solution is very complete. It's a good solution, for the kind of features that they offer."
"The platform is user-friendly and easy to learn in a low-code environment."
"This product has additional functionality over Blue Prism Cloud Enterprise."
"Its AI features allow customers to find specific documents via an index."
"The technical support team of Blue Prism Cloud is very good...I rate the support a ten out of ten."
"The ease of building automation and the development environment"
"This software is very smart - it can decide from a picture if we like that condition, and then the robot will do that action."
"The tool's most valuable feature is data import. The OCR feature helps to recognize the data. It can recognize screen and document numbers well."
 

Cons

"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."
"Several things need improvement, like ease-of-use, adding tended robots, adding process recording, and updating the look and feel so it seems modern."
"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."
"Improvement should be per customer requirements."
"The product’s licensing cost is expensive compared to other tools in the market."
"If Blue Prism could integrate into Azure SQL because it's essentially an on-prem code, on infrastructure as a service. So, Blue Prism has moved the infrastructure into the cloud, but they haven't necessarily moved the application into cloud-native."
"However, there are challenges with OCR capabilities that remain an issue."
"The area for improvement in Blue Prism Cloud is the support component. Whenever I reach out to the Blue Prism community, they consistently request knowledge sessions for everything, whether it is an advanced feature or not."
"Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks."
"The OCR has issues recognizing handwritten data."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are costs for the machine to run the robots."
"Blue Prism Cloud's cost is very high."
"The licensing structure is complex and the minimum contract length is three years."
"When compared with UiPath, I believe it will be difficult for Blue Prism to maintain its market share."
"Pricing can be negotiated in situations where there will be heavy usage."
"We found the pricing reasonable, and it aligned with our budgetary requirements."
"I would rate the pricing a five out of ten, with one being cheap and ten being expensive."
"Blue Prism Cloud’s pricing is fine for commercial usage."
"We pay yearly for the agent who runs the processes, plus an additional fee for maintenance costs."
