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.

Easy to use and clear documentation with notes explaining each step available
Areas, where I see some room for improvement would be the use of reading details from an Excel file. Most of the time, it's difficult when I say looping through a huge data set, and it's very difficult for the bot to interact with those data sets unless it starts offering the Excel file. As of today, from the reports I've worked with, I noticed that most reports are empty columns and two rows. So if Kryon can associate with that and extract those deposits into a variable, and the tools can easily fit out to column dash and two rows and columns, it will be nice. But as of today, the bot doesn't have the functionality to detect variables. We have to do it on the Excel file itself. I also noticed that when it comes to the use of bots, not everyone has the same knowledge, and it can be difficult to do certain research unless you have advanced knowledge of what you need to do. I also noticed that in the community, most people don't use it, and it's quite difficult when you need certain support.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"The product's most valuable feature is the executor."
"In general terms, the solution has helped our business by speeding up execution times."
"The ability to automate our processes with external plug-ins and zero code is the most valuable feature."
"It is a valuable tool for developing efficient solutions, especially in finance and banking."
"Attended versus unattended automation in AutomationEdge has benefited my organization significantly."
"The initial setup was easy and straightforward."
"AutomationEdge is really easy to use because the workflows are simple."
"Once I decide a process is suitable as a Kryon solution, the cycle of automation is quite quick. I learn about the manual process and I'm one of the two guys who program the Kryon environment. It's relatively simple. There are many details, but once you understand the concept it is quite easy."
"Troubleshooting and debugging could be improved. It's missing a proper debugger. It's very difficult, based on the log files and the fact that it doesn't have a proper debugger, to troubleshoot issues. It will sometimes end with no indication as to why it ended and it becomes a bit of trial and error."
"The friendliness of the software is good because people without any technical background can start off on it. This solution makes it easy for us to use it, as there is no learning curve. With no learning curve, the development time turnaround decreases."
"This rate system has allowed us to be more responsive and competitive with our rates with less human involvement."
"All our users have no technical background. But Kryon is really simple and intuitive. Our business adapted very quickly and easily. This is the main thing and it's why we love the system so much. It's why we are always trying to put more processes into the system and make more use cases: because of the simplicity and the intuitive nature of the system."
"Operational efficiency has increased more than 50 to 60 percent."
"What I like most about Kryon RPA is the user experience. I also find the layout and design of the solution better for programming compared to other RPA solutions."
"All our users have no technical background, but Kryon is really simple and intuitive and our business adapted very quickly and easily, which is why we love the system so much and are always trying to put more processes into the system and make more use cases because of the simplicity and the intuitive nature of the system."
 

Cons

"We cannot use extra modules while working with AutomationEdge. It crashes if we have lots of data to process in Excel."
"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."
"With the solution, customizing software can be time-consuming."
"With other automation solutions in the market, we can simulate the process in our notebooks where the solution creates the code for us, but with AutomationEdge we can't do this."
"The price of the solution could be improved."
"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."
"I have seen some very minor occurrences where Kryon's interactions with Microsoft Office might cause the robot to hang. However, it is about one to two percent of the time where we are seeing this happen. It is such a small percentage that it's not even something that we are overly worried about. This would be where they might have some stability issues, but it could be the Microsoft Office API or how they are interacting together."
"It could be more reliable in spying HTML."
"What we are lacking is OCR, the ability to read text. We would like it to have the ability to take a page which is free text and analyze it, and then for the robot to know what to do next. This ability does not exist in Kryon products."
"We would like to see having a little more specific documentation, or some of the examples be easier to find. One of the big things that we get directed to now is the Kryon Community page, but a lot of that wasn't in existence or publicized when we started doing our training and education. Now, we're stumbling through using it. For the majority of the time, we have either had to try and interpret what the instructions meant or do a service desk ticket."
"There are limitations on integrations with other platforms like ServiceNow. There are some issues integrating. It's not a really an open system. The product, its design, etc., is really good, but they have to look at the openness, how to integrate with other products which are available in the market, as well as with our own solutions. You can do integration but it is not so easy."
"Kryon could be easier to use, especially in comparison to UiPath."
"The only unstable part is Studio where you build this stuff; in our version, the 5.25, it has a memory leak, and if you leave it open for too long, eventually it just freezes."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."
"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."
"The product is available at the lowest price."
"It is expensive but its value can justify the cost."
"Price-wise, AutomationEdge is pretty affordable, making it not so expensive when you compare this with other tools in the market."
"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."
"I give the price of the solution a nine out of ten."
"In addition to the standard licensing costs, there are manpower costs."
"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."
"Kryon is slightly more expensive compared to UiPath."
"We are probably saving $6000 to $8000 a month in labor costs. It's not a ton, but we're right around $60,000 to $80,000 a year with our current deployment."
"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."
"The price is affordable."
"For an unattended robot it's $6000 a month."
"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."
