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.

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 most valuable feature of AutomationEdge is creating accounts."
"AutomationEdge is really easy to use because the workflows are simple."
"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."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...I rate the technical support of the solution a nine out of ten."
"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 staff went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect, even surprising us with a complimentary dessert to celebrate our anniversary."
"The product's most valuable feature is the executor."
"It helps us with cost optimization and easy implementation."
"It is a stable solution."
"With these features in place, it has definitely improved the overall turnaround time by approximately 20% to 30% at least."
"Technical support is responsive."
"It is easy to migrate from other tools to Power Automate."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the cost and ease of use, it's very simple."
"We use Power Automate for applicant tracking and automated around 80 percent of the process."
"You can automate almost everything in your organization by simply dragging and dropping and selecting a few options, whether it's an Excel spreadsheet or other on-premise data."
"It's an intuitive product. It's not overly technical."
 

Cons

"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."
"In the future, they should have a similar version for the cloud and on-premises, and the installation should be flawless within few minutes."
"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."
"We cannot use extra modules while working with AutomationEdge. It crashes if we have lots of data to process in Excel."
"AutomationEdge's primary issue is its price point, especially compared to other products."
"There are some shortcomings in the product's stability that need improvement."
"It's not an intuitive tool."
"When compared with other tools such as Automation Anywhere and UIPath, they are more stable than AutomationEdge."
"The speed of the application could be improved."
"The solution could have more integration with different platforms."
"It should be more stable, and their technical support should be faster. It should also have more integration with tools from other vendors, such as SAP and Oracle, and technology partners, such as Salesforce."
"Microsoft Power Automate requires some knowledge and understanding of nuances for setup and security approvals."
"The thing which needs the most improvement is really the documentation. It should have better details of the processes."
"I would like to see better data integration with different sources."
"Power Automate could be improved by adding an internal fuzzy lookup or fuzzy match feature."
"The technical support has room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Price-wise, AutomationEdge is pretty affordable, making it not so expensive when you compare this with other tools in the market."
"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."
"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."
"I give the price of the solution a nine out of ten."
"It is expensive but its value can justify the cost."
"The pricing of this solution is very good and for me, it's the best option there is."
"Microsoft Power Automate is expensive. The full license is quite expensive."
"We are using the free version of Power Automate."
"Power Automate is a much less expensive product than the competition."
"Initially, we had a Microsoft account for Office 365. Later, we discovered that our license included access to Power Automate at no additional cost. There was a small fee for additional features, but it was negligible compared to the benefits. There are not any additional fees required to use the solution."
"Comparatively, WinAutomation is cheaper than the other automation tools. When we purchased the license, it was around $50 or $60 per user most probably per month."
"You can have two types of licenses, one is user-based, and the other is app-based in the Power Platform."
"Good price-quality relationship. Its features for its price were the best fit for our company."
