Costs depend on the automation complexity. Licensing can be based on per user or per flow, with the potential for high costs if not carefully managed. The cost for licensing can increase due to licensing fees.
I would rate the pricing an eight out of ten, with ten being expensive because there are charges for additional plug-ins. The pricing depends on the use case. If I want to use Excel, there is a cost. If I want to use Power BI, there is a cost. For each and every single plug-in, there is a cost. Microsoft should bundle these things. There should be a common bundle.
There is a per-user licensing model for individual users, which typically costs around $10 to $12 per user per month. If purchasing for a team, the cost per person may be slightly lower, around $9 to $10 per user per month. Pro licensing may cost around $5 to $6 more per user per month compared to the standard licensing.
I would rate it as a low price. While a paid version with a subscription allows you to run it on the cloud, I think the free version is quite good, even compared to the paid version.
Power Automate is a better and more cost-effective solution compared to Automation tools. The pricing model is cheap. I would say they have played it very smart. It is cheap, but the connectors go for a task. So, you'll have to pay extra for the connectors. I would rate the pricing model a two out of ten, where ten is very expensive. Moreover, Microsoft Power Automate has a per-user model. They don't require yearly payments. The licensing is for all updates per-user. So it's decently licensed. But it is a good amount.
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. If we had purchased a UIPath or Blue Prism, it would have cost us a minimum of $10,000. I rate the price of Microsoft Power Automate an eight out of ten.
When accompanying customers, we discuss the license requirements. Based on these requirements, we suggest whether a per-user plan or multiple platforms per-user plan would be best.
The pricing is reasonable and the western license is fantastic. They have a premium service that includes connectors and the SQL server sanitizer team. If they change this service to be standard, then pricing will be even better.
The licensing model of the solution includes cross-selling. That means Microsoft provides Power Automate as an add-on product with other products. Also, it offers other add-on products with Power Automate. In this way, we can increase the credits with the provided options.
The license is 20 million rupees per month. The cost is okay but we are paying per month. Microsoft is providing a license that is automatic which is very helpful. But we know that of the solution, we don't have any annual subscriptions. We pay monthly, otherwise, we choose another solution. Microsoft is providing an automatic license with a cost of $20 million per month, which is reasonable. However, we don't have any annual subscription options, so we must pay monthly or choose another solution.

Comparatively, WinAutomation is cheaper than the other automation tools. When we purchased the license, it was around $50 or $60 per user most probably per month.
My company switched to a monthly payment for the WinAutomation by Softomotive license. I don't have the exact figure, but it roughly amounts to 500 Euros a year which isn't bad.
At the moment, from our experience with the two, Power Automate is a lot more expensive solution than Automation Anywhere, but it is also a far more reliable solution. With the price increases and with the current pandemic situation going on worldwide, a lot of the prices have fluctuated, but the packages and the all-encompassing features you get with the Microsoft package far outweigh the benefits from the Automation Anywhere side. Each package on the Automation Anywhere side is cheaper, but we need to continuously purchase subsequent packages to continue with our automation to the extent that we require. So, the Power Automate solution is a bit more pricey, but it does offer us a far better range of capabilities. There are different development plans that you can use. Additional licenses might be required for additional features, such as your Azure Logic or your Dataverse capacity. There is a limited capacity package that you can purchase, and then you have to have an additional license for added capacity.

The cost to use Microsoft Power Automate is approximately $15 per user per month, for the basic plan. However, the solution comes free with the Microsoft 365 Suite. You have to pay extra for the scheduling of the automation tasks.
We paid for one license for this solution. It was a lifetime license for this version (version 8), and we paid around 1,000 euros. At the moment, as long as we use this version, there is no additional cost, but when we upgrade to the new version, it will be a monthly subscription. We bought the license from Softomotive, so we had one license and that license was restricted to version eight. When we upgrade to the newest version, we would need to buy that upgrade, because Microsoft has taken over Softomotive and they no longer sell licenses. They only sell monthly subscriptions. We have to transfer our license to a Microsoft subscription, and though they will give a redemption, the cost will change, so this is also one of the reasons why we didn't change to the new version yet.
