Partnering with comprehensive automation for increased efficiency
The best feature of Appian RPA is that it is highly integrated into the Appian platform itself. It is very easy to configure that in the end-to-end Appian automation solution. The second notable feature is that Appian RPA gives you a lot of flexibility in terms of how you want to design the robotic tasks. It has a very detailed orchestration console which provides details about the entire runtime and the logs of Appian RPA where you can find in detail what the robot did on the virtual machine. Appian provides dashboards where users or admins can log in and see how the robots are performing various robotic tasks. It is very detailed and gives substantial insight into how Appian RPA is functioning or is operational. It also lets you drill down into specific details at each task level.

Achieves rapid results in data migration and has an intuitive user interface
I find SnapLogic to be user-friendly, especially for beginners with limited experience in data engineering or ETL. The interface is interactive, allowing me to quickly learn how to run pipelines and achieve production-ready results swiftly. This agility translates to cost savings, especially for smaller projects and proofs of concept, as less time and effort are needed to deliver results.

Pros

"The best feature of Appian RPA is that it is highly integrated into the Appian platform itself and is very easy to configure in the end-to-end Appian automation solution."
"Appian RPA is super easy to use, offering low code, no code capabilities."
"Overall product rating is nine out of ten."
"The API architecture makes it easy for orchestration."
"The product is easy to use and has many connectivity options."
"The solution could improve its API management."
"Despite having no prior experience in SnapLogic, we managed to build, test, and prepare it for release in just three hours, handling heavy data efficiently."
"The technical support from SnapLogic is excellent, and I would give it a complete ten."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"By using snaps instead of functions in code, you can see the building blocks of the integration visually. This helps a lot."
 

Cons

"There are not any areas that need improvement off the top of my head."
"There are many competitive products in the market right now, for example, UiPath and Automation Anywhere. These competitive products are now coming up with features which Appian RPA currently does not have."
"SnapLogic doesn't provide any on-premises software, so users have only cloud-based software to use."
"We'd like zero downtime in the future."
"I don't think the support has better knowledge about technologies and tool support. There were lots of times when we had an issue, and it took me quite a long time to explain the problem. I feel like some of the support staff don't know their product well."
"The dashboards regarding scheduled tasks need further improvement."
"If the AI capabilities and integrations were more intuitive and easy for new users to learn, it would be greatly beneficial."
"The setup cost would be four or five. There would be only one point of improvement if the price could be lower."
"We'd like there to be more ways for users to get more comfortable and have more experience with the solution to make it easier to use."
"I would like to see more performance-related dashboards, ones that display the cost of a pipeline, for instance. Also, it would be helpful to have management dashboards for overseeing pipelines and connections."
