Anabel Marco

Account Director at a tech services company with 11-50 employees

Automates processes efficiently with cost-effective scaling and robust customer support

Web scraping is quite good since it offers a lot of possibilities. Another important feature for me is its compatibility with MBI, the Power that is ISEQUADO Centers. I appreciate the ability to scale and increase the number of bots or studios without additional expense. Automate's non-reliance on additional orchestrators makes it quite cost-effective.

Biswajit Mohanty

Senior Manager - RPA & Transition at FIS

Suitable for a small-scale business but not evolved enough for a large enterprise

The best thing with that Jacada is that they are a repository builder, which we use for our assessment to gauge and match screens. Jacada has evolved, but I'm not using the latest version. Technically we use our internal product more, which is iAutomate. We also use UiPath and Automation Anywhere…

Amjed Al-Tayyan

Governance Director at Diyar United Company

Automation streamlines onboarding and reduces the load on customer service agents

As the head of the division, I do not use UiPath myself. However, I am the decision-maker, so I review the features. The combination of both full-attended and half-attended automation, where you can automate tasks and still interact when required, is very useful. It provides efficiency by freeing staff from unnecessary tasks, resulting in a balanced workload and more productive use of an employee's time. The tool has a noticeable ROI, and the investment is worth every penny as it reduces tedious tasks and improves scalability. It is very easy to use. During the COVID lockdown, my son who was 11 at the time attended a UiPath and Automation Anywhere training with me. He has already automated his school tasks requiring saving data and uploading some documents to the portal. If a kid can do this, it shows how easy it is.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Fortra's Automate has effectively replaced the workload of an entire employee, saving us significant time and money."

"We have tried other RPA solutions like UiPath or Automation Anywhere. They are fantastic products but complex, and it's hard to understand everything. It would be best if you had a skilled developer or several. Automate is easy to implement, administer, and use. It's appropriate for us because our cases are simple and easy to automate. We don't need complicated tools with many features; We prefer to get a significant ROI quickly."

"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."

"Overall, the whole product is really nice and provides significant benefits."

"Web scraping is quite good since it offers a lot of possibilities."

"Fortra's Automate performs the job effectively and has the capability to alert us of any issues."

"I would rate the technical support as a nine out of ten because it is quite fast and courteous."

"I like the interface; it makes managing automation easy. We can set different schedules and templates for each task."

More Automate pros

"The initial setup was fairly straightforward."

"UiPath has helped with data scraping and plugging into websites and combining that with Alteryx. We can attack 90% of our use cases now."

"Our profit has increased by around 50 percent using UiPath."

"The steps, documentation, and information are pretty straightforward when it comes to the product, so there is no ambiguity."

"It has significantly improved the accuracy of our operations, particularly in terms of quality, and has also reduced the time required."

"UiPath RPA needs very little coding knowledge, as designing software robots is done largely using drag-and-drop."

"The product as a whole is a valuable contributor to efficiency improvement."

"Compared to our older platforms, UiPath is easy to install and integrate. On day one, you can deploy it to your system in a few minutes. Our previous solution required more infrastructure to do the automation. UiPath has UiPath Studio, so you can play the flow and record all your inputs. The main advantage is that you can build a solution in minutes. It's effortless to get started."

"The UiPath Academy is fantastic and amazing. I'm a big promoter of it in my discussions with customers."

More UiPath pros

Cons

"I find that most important features are strong, however, there is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."

"They do not encrypt passwords, so this is an issue with HIPAA compliance."

"I currently have three bugs open with them that I don't know if they are addressed in the new release."

"The interface could be more user-friendly and easier to navigate."

"There is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."

"The intelligent automation feature could be improved. It's interesting because it's simple, but the automation quality isn't always good. It's easy to use, but sometimes you need to make a slight improvement to the automation, and that's not so easy."

"It's possible that they could use a stronger community for seeking guidance and help."

"Sometimes when we communicate with the ERP system and there is an issue, we are not always aware of the specifics of Automate and the source of the problem."

More Automate cons

"They need to create a workflow system."

"Most of our automations have been without a user interface and we need the ability to interact with users directly."

"There is a need for better autopilot features to enhance the functionality of UiPath."

"In UiPath they should improve the input and outputs of processes. I found it very complicated."

"Sometimes it takes time to provide results."

"I think the only issue we have faced is with the upgrade compatibility."

"The UiPath solution doesn't currently provide unique testing for mobile devices."

"Sometimes, UiPath becomes a little laggy when we move from one page to another."

"It should have better integration with Microsoft applications such as Excel, SharePoint, Outlook, etc. Power Automate is better for communicating with Microsoft Office applications. With UiPath, we have some difficulty communicating with the Microsoft Office applications. This is the only weakness that I have come across."

More UiPath cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"From a distributor's side, one of the biggest selling points is its price point. Without going into any numbers, compared to UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and Blue Prism, we're significantly cheaper. The main difference is that other competitors usually charge you per process. However, in Automate's case, it's priced per bot. So, a bot can run multiple processes at the same time, but you are only priced for a single bot."

"It has gone up in price. The price of Fortra's Automate has increased since we first started using it. It does a lot but also costs a lot. It was a lot more affordable before Fortra owned the software."

"Compared to other products, the pricing model for this solution is much more convenient, flexible, and adaptable to the Portuguese reality."

"I like the way this solution is priced because you can buy a license, or you can buy the software outright."

"I'm only involved in running the product and maintaining the systems, so I can't speak to the cost."

"Once you buy the software, you just pay for the support for backend help."

"It comes with a package that costs approximately $20,000 USD per year."

"From a distributor's perspective, one of the biggest selling points of Automate is its price point."

Information not available

"The price of UiPath is not too expensive or too cheap. It's in between."

"In comparison to Power Automate, UiPath's price is a little bit high. The Community edition of UiPath Studio is free. If you want to learn something or develop a process, you can install the Community edition of UiPath Studio."

"The price is reasonable, although Orchestrator is really costly. Not many organizations will be able to afford that, but without Orchestrator, you can't do bot management. It becomes pretty difficult. UiPath has to focus on orchestration pricing."

"I like that there is one license for all basic needs, but it is still expensive. Sometimes, we don't need all the tools or capabilities. We only need basic automation and processing for certain clients, but we're required to get the full license. They can improve its licensing and provide more flexibility. They can create more plans or packages, or they can let the users choose the capabilities they need and base its pricing on that."

"This solution has a very competitive and flexible pricing scheme that depends on the process complexity."

"Its cost is a bit on the higher side. We are not very happy with their pricing. Most of the UiPath products are priced higher than competitors."

"The main complaint I receive about UiPath is the pricing."

"We see some elements in the license model that we're trying to figure out how to utilize. There have been some elements in the license model where UiPath has helped us solve them commercially, and having a license model which is more focused on scalability would be a great feature."

Fortra

While assisted service aptly describes the human-touch component, intelligent agent engagement more accurately describes the human-touch fueled with technology to drive improved operational efficiency. Intelligent agent engagement is about transforming complex agent desktops, a variety of channels (voice, chat, email, etc) and complex processes (troubleshooting, complicated products, regulatory) into an operationally efficient customer service experience.
