Delivers increased productivity and streamlines fraud processing in banking, though technical support could be faster
Before AutomationEdge, we had to hire coder-level experts with Java or Python knowledge. This approach took considerable time and required error handling to automate processes. With this tool, all processes are automatically handled with errors, and no-code automation is available. The cost for a developer is now significantly lower. Previously, we hired highly efficient developers with high salary packages. The license cost of 5 to 10 lakhs per year for one person to automate is equivalent to a person's annual salary. With the license and a developer hired at 3 to 5 lakhs, we can automate 40 to 50 processes.

Helped us identify areas where frontline staff aren't following standard procedures or using unexpected systems, giving us better insight into our end users' workflows
To analyze and make sense of the data generated by Kryon process discovery can be a lot of effort. It's not as automatic as some might think. It really depends on how many processes you have and how actively you use them. But the scalability aspect isn't necessarily about deployment or technical maintenance. It's really about how you analyze and gain insights from the data gathering. I'd rate the scalability a seven out of ten because the solution has been scaling well for a long time. It's very easy to deploy. But getting value out of it at scale can be a challenge, just like with any deployment. We use it mainly for process discovery. We actually proceed it from different teams. So, we have 15 licenses that we rotate with different people, actually through different teams. So, we do discovery for the online team; we gather the results after about two weeks to a month. We analyze those results, and then we deploy them again on the analytics team. We regularly deploy it to different teams. So, it's in constant use. It just runs on the systems through discovery mode most of the time.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It helps us with cost optimization and easy implementation."
"AutomationEdge has shown the most productive impact, and the productivity was excellent before, and now it can increase by 20 to 30% more with AI implementation."
"Attended versus unattended automation in AutomationEdge has benefited my organization significantly."
"The support from the vendor is very good."
"It is a valuable tool for developing efficient solutions, especially in finance and banking."
"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."
"If we want to change your processes, we can code it from scratch, making it a beneficial feature of the product."
"In general terms, the solution has helped our business by speeding up execution times."
"I primarily use Kryon RPA for attended and unattended bots and back-office automation, and I've also used it for fulfillment cases in the retail domain, where it's been working quite well."
"Besides that, it works, it's stable, it has nice performance, and was, therefore, a good decision to go with it."
"We have been using Kryon Process Discovery for about a year now. With our initial tests and monitoring just a couple people, we were able to identify 79 possible use cases within a one-month period."
"The task mining aspect has been the most valuable for us. That's why we actually bought it."
"The most valuable features for our organization are the automatic processes which save main power in the back office."
"What I like most about Kryon RPA is the user experience, and I also find the layout and design of the solution better for programming compared to other RPA solutions."
"This rate system has allowed us to be more responsive and competitive with our rates with less human involvement."
"The recording capability is valuable because of the amount of data it captures automatically. It's quite good. It means less development, and fewer configuration settings to fill in after you're done."
 

Cons

"The installation process could improve. It was difficult to complete."
"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."
"The ease of use is the main thing on which they really have to focus. If they want to go against the giants, it should be improved in ease of use, and it should be more user-friendly. It would be helpful because everyone should be empowered irrespective of whether they know how to code or not. They should enhance its user interface and make it more intuitive."
"They could provide more technologies for IT and security to enhance machine learning capabilities."
"When compared with other tools such as Automation Anywhere and UIPath, they are more stable than AutomationEdge."
"AutomationEdge's primary issue is its price point, especially compared to other products."
"With the solution, customizing software can be time-consuming."
"In the future, they should have a similar version for the cloud and on-premises, and the installation should be flawless within few minutes."
"Extracting meaningful data requires significant effort. You need a dedicated business analyst who can understand the output."
"When a project is very big, a lot of memory is taken up."
"It would be better to have [upgrades] done automatically, like an application on your smartphone. Or even if done manually, the upgrade should just be "next, next, next," and it's upgraded, rather than making it a project to upgrade."
"Nintex RPA is not suitable for PDF automation."
"Another major drawback is OCR. We are not able to read scanned documents correctly in a reliable way."
"There have been some times where we have had to go through explaining the issue a couple times because it has gone through a couple of people's hands."
"When a project is very big, a lot of memory is taken up. Then, machines don't have enough memory. This could be improved upon to be more efficient."
"We would like to see having a little more specific documentation, or some of the examples be easier to find."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is available at the lowest price."
"Price-wise, AutomationEdge is pretty affordable, making it not so expensive when you compare this with other tools in the market."
"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."
"It is expensive but its value can justify the cost."
"I give the price of the solution a nine out of ten."
"Pricing can be made better. Currently, I think the pricing is based on the market. The pricing also depends on the business partners that offer you the solution."
"If you are looking for a budget solution, you can consider AE. It has all the features. Scaling it is way easier because of the cost itself."
"We've more than broken even over on the license. Year to date, we are at $120,000 in savings."
"Can't beat the price... There are different pricing levels for every bot or unattended bot. You can buy however many you want. You'll need an additional virtual machine for it to work on."
"The price is affordable."
"We have been able to alleviate two FTEs, which was a big savings for us. We were able to reuse those resources in other locations. It is over 5000 hours a year in total savings."
"Compared to its competitors, Kryon RPA's pricing is very competitive."
"In addition to the standard licensing costs, there are manpower costs."
"We're paying in the neighborhood of about $66,000 a year. The cost is fairly similar to its competitors' costs. It might have been a little bit more reasonable than the others, and that cost was with Process Discovery in addition."
"For an unattended robot it's $6000 a month."
