Works at a tech services company with 201-500 employees

A scalable solution which is easy to install and use

I do not use the solution personally as I am not the end-user. It is merely one of the solutions that we offer to our customers. We act as consultants, solution providers. We have around 60 customers who are using the solution. I would, for sure, recommend the solution to others. I consider the profile of the project to be quite good at the moment. I rate Another Monday as a nine out of ten.

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 initial setup is very quick."

"Microsoft Power Automate's no-code workflows help my team in daily operations to a great extent."

"Its ease of use is most valuable. A lot of the bulk functionality is done either through standalone or custom connectors and standard API processes."

"WinAutomation is very handy to use, and it has the power to interact with multiple systems, such as SAP, Oracle, or .NET systems."

"It is basically free for me because it comes with my Office 365 subscription. The main feature is that there is abundant learning material on platforms like YouTube. You can find information about whatever you want to be done in Spanish or English without a problem. It is very easy to learn. Users can start using it on their own without any former training, which is something I like about this solution."

"The solution is pretty customizable. Even big automation tasks are done rather simply."

"One of the most valuable features of Power Automate is its ability to extract text from a website."

"So far, the tech support has provided me with good enough support and knowledge."

"Technical support is available regionally and it's quite good."

More Microsoft Power Automate pros

Cons

"The solution should come with language customization, which would simplify its use for our customers."

"I've had some issues with the stability."

"The connectors and the integration capability can be improved. Microsoft RPA is a growing platform, and it is not yet particularly mature."

"I think the language Microsoft Power Automate uses when you do expressions could be better. What they use is not a popular programming language. It would be better for Microsoft to find a more popular programming language, such as Python. It would take away the whole no-code aspect of the solution but you don't need to write that many lines of code to improve something in a process. Instead of no-code, they could be a low-code environment."

"The technical support has room for improvement."

"Tech support could be more hands-on. Right now, they simply direct users to documentation instead of directly dealing with issues."

"Sometimes there are issues with security policies within the company. Some parts get blacked. There are some drawbacks when we use it connected to the cloud. We need to convince clients to open some parts. This is often an issue that originates from the company itself, not Power Automate."

"The solution is not actually satisfying the complex programs that we want to execute."

"The BPM component needs improvement."

More Microsoft Power Automate cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is no licensing fee for our customers."

"I give the cost a three out of ten."

"Microsoft Power Automate is part of our Office 365 package, there are no additional licensing costs."

"It has a cost-effective pricing model compared to competitors."

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

"The solution is $150 per month for the unattended add-on, and the normal Power Automate comes with an E3 license."

"The price of the solution is reasonable."

"The platform is averagely priced. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."

"The pricing is reasonable and the western license is fantastic."
