Automation has saved thousands of hours by processing bulk data and managing emails efficiently
The best features SS&C Blue Prism offers include powerful automation, easy-to-use process flow, and excellent integration capabilities. Data manipulation and handling is very easy and user-friendly. It is very secure, especially in handling sensitive data such as credentials. One of my favorite features of SS&C Blue Prism that stands out is its seamless integration with various systems. This includes features such as load balancing, encryption, audit, and spying modes. The capability proves to be a significant advantage when automating tasks across different applications and platforms, which saves a lot of time. The email handling feature is spot-on, and we are able to automate these tasks easily, saving a lot of time. SS&C Blue Prism has positively impacted my organization as it can easily handle a large amount of data, being very scalable. It also saves time through automation of email. It saved a considerable amount of time, more than 5,000 hours of manual work so far. It saved a considerable amount of money as well. The costing metrics will improve largely. It also requires very little coding. Instead of hiring new people trained in a specific tool, we were able to manage this with the existing workforce with a few weekend classes.

Little coding needed and speeds development time but lacks documentation
The maintenance aspect is too heavy. Moving from one version to the other made the solution change, and not in a way that we liked. Typically there are documents about the release of new versions and a set of activities required to migrate from one to the other. This time, it was very messy. There were issues surrounding the management of the release. This could potentially be due to the fact that WebRation, in the past, had started to make some choices regarding the framework and architecture that were changed later. In the past, we'd use a strategy as the environment, as an architectural pattern for the application. Now, it's moving more on the spring framework and this initiated some change that obviously had an impact on our application. It's caused a problem with maintenance. The solution seems to have changed its approach. Now, it's more related to a federative application environment in a monolithic aspect. While the solution was interesting at one point, everything is moving towards the cloud. WebRatio should be moving also in the web approach. Currently, you have to install an environment inside the desktop. The future is the cloud. Normally with a low code environment, there is a VPN notation - maybe a WebML or FML notation. If they can move in to have an environment that has a running machine at the end, it would be great. Obviously, some components on the server-side should be deliberate. Normally it's the model you control that's step-by-step and has a very simple flow. In the digital environment, in the organization, the process is more complex. The quality of the documentation and the community surrounding the product are poor. They need to give users more documentation and build up the surrounding community. As it isn't a well-known product, it's hard to find professionals to work with it.
