Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We can quickly adapt to our end users.""If we want to change your processes, we can code it from scratch, making it a beneficial feature of the product.""The chatbot that they have is most valuable. It is one of the best features because they own it, and they don't need to integrate with other parties to have a chatbot. This is one of the main features. The rest of the features are common to all RPA tools or vendors available in the market.""The most valuable feature of AutomationEdge is creating accounts.""The studio design is fine compared to other similar products. There is nothing extraordinary about it, but at the same time, there are not any negatives.""It helps us with cost optimization and easy implementation.""The support from the vendor is very good.""The initial setup was easy and straightforward."

"Its integration with SharePoint and Outlook is the most valuable. I found it very easy to use. I could do everything that I wanted very quickly, and I didn't have any complications at all. I never had a problem in using Microsoft Power Automate.""The pricing of the solution is competitive, which is good for the Romanian market.""Instead of manually triggering payments through the website, everything was done through robotic process automation (RPA), saving us a lot of time.""I like the scalability option and the simplicity, the way we can really use the interface to easily scale up.""The solution is pretty customizable. Even big automation tasks are done rather simply.""It's easy to learn.""The approval feature is the most important feature. We also use the flow history feature. It is a very useful product as compared to other products. We can automate easily when a list is updated. We can also handle approval-related issues and integrate it with emails.""The initial setup is pretty straightforward."

Cons
"AutomationEdge's ecosystem has shortcomings and needs improvement. When we compare AutomationEdge to other RPA tools in our company, we find that it has a very minor online community.""The price of the solution could be improved.""With the solution, customizing software can be time-consuming.""We cannot use extra modules while working with AutomationEdge. It crashes if we have lots of data to process in Excel.""It's not an intuitive tool.""The installation process could improve. It was difficult to complete.""They could provide more technologies for IT and security to enhance machine learning capabilities.""There are some shortcomings in the product's stability that need improvement."

More AutomationEdge Cons →

"The licensing model is difficult to understand and is something that should be improved.""Sometimes, Microsoft changes the game rules, and the free tools are no longer free, which makes it too hard to explain to customers. It is a SaaS service, so the cost is calculated based on the execution hours. However, we don't know the background of this cost because we cannot touch the infrastructure. They can be more open to developers or customers about this. The infrastructure part must be open for the customers.""WinAutomation is scalable to a certain extent. I would rate it seven for the scalability, which could be better. Softomotive is better scalable than WinAutomation in this regard.""They can provide a deeper level of feedback about running processes. When I compare it to Blue Prism, the control room has slightly less information about the running processes and possible errors. I'm not a pro, so I am not entirely sure if this is a core feature of the product or if it is because of the way our partners have developed it or set it up.""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.""They need to come up with a little more on AI and precision discovery path to be able to record the processes.""The solution's licensing model is very complex and not straightforward.""One of the challenges is dealing with OCR text recognition."
