Automation and AI integration enhance performance and user experience
The improvements or enhancements I would like to see in Blue Prism Cloud revolve around further developing server-client architecture, focusing on centralized control for remote agents. I believe more capabilities in that area could be beneficial. At the moment, I don't recall any specific features or functionalities missing from Blue Prism Cloud that come to mind. In terms of complexity, I find that Blue Prism Cloud is somewhat straightforward to use. Flexibility-wise, it engages well with Microsoft-based technologies. However, there are challenges with OCR capabilities that remain an issue. While there are readily available features that work well, the effectiveness does depend significantly on the type of use case I am implementing.

Frees up employee time but can't run when computer system is locked
Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks. It would be better if, when we have scheduled a scenario, it would log into the system automatically.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Blue Prism is well known for being used in banking and security organizations. Its security is superior compared to UiPath and other RPA tools."
"The user performance is the most valuable feature."
"It provides good, clean data that enhances our AI initiatives."
"The reusability of the solution is excellent. It's a superior feature - far superior to any other tool on the market."
"Blue Prism offers the whole package for LPR developers. It's a useful tool to automate anything. As an LPR developer, I think the most important feature is that it lets you get anything into blocks of code that you can use anywhere."
"The user-friendly interface of Blue Prism Cloud has significantly aided my team's ability to design automated processes, allowing them to create agents and deploy them without needing extensive coding knowledge."
"It is secure and supports unattended mode of operations."
"The most valuable feature is security."
"The tool's most valuable feature is data import. The OCR feature helps to recognize the data. It can recognize screen and document numbers well."
"This software is very smart - it can decide from a picture if we like that condition, and then the robot will do that action."
 

Cons

"I would like to see a web-based control room, rather than the one that is in-built with the desktop version."
"The issue is that it is not dynamic or intelligent."
"It takes a while to get up and running."
"The pricing was a bit high, from what I understand. That might have played a role in the decision to migrate to another solution."
"There's a need to deal with unstructured input with RPA."
"The solution is unable to read some UI components in legacy systems."
"I believe they need to become more competitive within the market in order to maintain their market share. We were essentially a Blue Prism shop and sold Blue Prism, but because of the price point, many clients are now looking at competitors."
"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."
"The OCR has issues recognizing handwritten data."
"Something that could be improved is that this solution can't run when the computer is locked, which meant we had to implement it in our own on-prem server as it never auto-locks."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Blue Prism Cloud’s pricing is fine for commercial usage."
"The default configuration does not include large-scale log injection, but if you require, such integration, it may incur additional costs per gigabyte. I don't have the exact pricing information for log injection, but it is possible that it varies depending on the volume of data. While there may be a basic service included, additional features might come at an extra cost. When working with cloud environments like VMs, calculating costs involves considering factors such as usage duration, network traffic, inbound and outbound data transfer, as well as network access control. The pricing structure for cloud coverage solutions follows a similar pattern, although specific pricing details would need to be obtained separately."
"I would rate the pricing a five out of ten, with one being cheap and ten being expensive."
"This solution comes at a medium to high price point. They need to work on their pricing to enable smaller enterprises to get the benefit of using the product."
"Though I don't have many details, I think Blue Prism Cloud is an expensive product compared to the other tools in the market since you need to pay for resources like machines."
"I rate the platform’s pricing a seven out of ten."
"There are many RPA solutions available from different vendors and the pricing for Blue Prism is competitive."
"There are costs for the machine to run the robots."
"We pay yearly for the agent who runs the processes, plus an additional fee for maintenance costs."
