We performed a comparison between Blue Prism Cloud and BotFarm based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The corporate leverage is better with Blue Prism. They just present better in a large corporation. It's easier to sell suits and ties than it is sneakers and jeans in financial institutions. That's not really about the application per se; it's the perception."
"This solution comes with a lot of good features."
"It's easy to use, the interface, the the the the queries is which we use. It's user friendly."
"Blue Prism Cloud is an easy to access and user-friendly solution."
"I would say that the stability of Blue Prism is superior to any of the competing products because of the maintainability of the features and the openness of the tool."
"There is no latency in the product."
"The platform is user-friendly and easy to learn in a low-code environment."
"Ability to see the blueprint of the design executed alongside the actual process."
"It is easy to use and very stable. It is a rugged product, and it doesn't break so easily."
"Automation Anywhere provides a very flexible UI."
"They recently released the newest version that has a good program flow, quality, and blueprints that are all good improvements to the automation. They also have good integration with SAP."
"The most valuable features I have found to be the screen scraping and the integration with third-party solutions."
"The solution has been very user-friendly."
"The record option and the OCR technology have been great."
"The best aspect is the UI, as it is very user-friendly."
"Automation Anywhere has good document extraction features where it can learn patterns."
"I think that there are some improvements in the product performance that are needed in Blue Prism Cloud...The initial setup of the product needs a lot of time and effort."
"The product’s pricing needs improvement."
"They should work on the solution's pricing."
"The pricing of the solution could be improved. It's a bit expensive right now. They should work to make it more competitive."
"We have limited integrations in place, and my objective is to integrate Sentinel. However, there are constraints as some individuals have only one or two options for SIM integration solutions. Given the urgency of quick resolutions in today's landscape, prevention and detection are crucial. While these measures provide significant security, it's equally important to focus on response and recovery. In the case of a ransomware attack, it's not enough to solely prevent and detect. Once detection is in place, a response model should be implemented to automate the process and minimize the time required for tasks, such as creating investigation reports. In the past, it would take approximately seven to eight days to create an investigation report for a specific attack, including writing a case study. This process can be streamlined and improved through the automation of contextual investigation reports. By saving base templates and content, including screenshots and attack details, automation can be achieved. We are currently working on integrating Microsoft WAF and Excel for this purpose, but having a built-in tool would be ideal."
"The solution is unable to read some UI components in legacy systems."
"Blue Prism should adopt a low-code approach. Most RPA vendors only provide what they call a "form builder." A low-code designer would enable us to build a custom UI."
"There's a need to deal with unstructured input with RPA."
"The only challenge that we have faced with BotFarm is that there is no continuous deployment. The whole world is moving to the DevOps model, but BotFarm is still not on the DevOps model. It should have integration with the DevOps model. The migration of the bots or bots pipeline is currently purely manual."
"The machine learning needs to be improved so that they perform better in terms of predictive analysis and sentiment analysis."
"The dashboard needs improvement. For Bot Farm, the visualization is not that good compared to the main Automation Anywhere dashboard."
"When somebody is just learning this product it can be difficult for them to understand, so improvements to the user interface would be helpful."
"We have connectivity and integration with pretty much every single tech stack across the table that we have in the world, and there are a few areas that they don't do that well yet. I'd be looking for some improvement there, in terms of their integration with certain products."
"The licensing schemes could be more competitive. They need to be much more flexible in their pricing."
"BotFarm newer version has been difficult to install, we have been in contact with the support on this matter."
"The solution doesn't have support like they used to. They need support. We have personnel of our own, but sometimes we need assistance beyond our own team."
