Stable with good cross-integration between modules, but the training needs to be improved
We mainly use UiPath as our RPA platform. I have looked at several other solutions that include the bigger ones, Blue Prism, and Automation Anywhere. We have experience in developing bots in all three of these. It is difficult to move from UiPath to EdgeVerve when UiPath is so good at getting people in the door. They've got a great ecosystem and a great training model. Every other system is more challenging to use. To get an EdgeVerve license, for example, you need to have an NDA in place to use it. Blue Prism is even worse, although, with them, you just have to pay more money. By not democratizing the software and the way to utilize it, smaller companies like EdgeVerve and even Blue Prism, to a certain extent, have suffered in terms of growth. The three leaders at the top do a pretty good job. Outside of workflow, they do a pretty good job, and that's why the customers buy, so you have to be strong on those. As far as the tools are concerned, RPA is RPA, and everybody generally does it in the same way. What is probably going to start distinguishing between products is the use of AI. When AI really overtakes the selectors for RDA, robotic desktop automation, when you have to really rely on the backdrop of the DOM to get at the element, the use of AI and more efficient on-prem AI solutions is going to really make that a better experience. The on-premises distinction is important because there's latency when you hit the cloud. Ultimately, to me, the toolsets are all the same. Drag and drop, the ability to create custom activities in terms of creating your libraries, and that kind of thing, they're all there. This past year has been ridiculous in terms of how all of the tools have progressed. What they were a year ago versus what they are today, is a considerable and significant difference. For example, I have totally redesigned my solutions and architectures over the past year.

Automated workflows have reduced manual effort and now streamline approvals and notifications
The best feature of Microsoft Power Automate is its extensive library of connectors, allowing integrations with Microsoft 365, SAP, Salesforce, SQL, ServiceNow, REST APIs, SharePoint, and Teams, along with being a low-code platform for creating workflows with minimal coding and supporting robotic process automation. The most seamless connectors I rely on in Microsoft Power Automate are Outlook, SharePoint, and Teams, as they allow me to filter and automate actions such as saving email attachments to SharePoint or sending notifications in Teams easily. Microsoft Power Automate has positively impacted our organization with significant time savings, achieving a 60 to 80% reduction in manual effort for tasks such as downloading attachments and sending emails, thereby saving hours of repetitive work per week per team. We saved two hours daily per team.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"EdgeVerve is a bit like Appian, where they have full suites that have a great deal of functionality."
"I would say that the cross-integration between different modules, such as between the OCR, RPA, and ML, is the most valuable feature."
"This solution improved the reporting in our organization. The financial department was doing a lot of copy pasting from different sources to create financial reports. Through ProcessRobot, we were able to automate all those copy pasting and produce all those financial reports overnight."
"Implementing Microsoft Power Automate has made our development team more efficient."
"I like the scalability option and the simplicity, the way we can really use the interface to easily scale up."
"We use Microsoft Power Automate to automate everything, such as mailing, gathering data from a web scraping, and scheduling time."
"The sequencer programming mode's ease of use is its most valuable aspect."
"The most valuable features of Microsoft Power Automate are user-friendliness and low coding functionality."
"Power Automate is a better and more cost-effective solution compared to Automation tools."
"We are absolutely satisfied with technical support."
 

Cons

"Better training and better accessibility of the tools are the things that need to be improved."
"Better training and better accessibility of the tools are the things that need to be improved."
"The UI of the solution is not so good."
"The solution could offer more specific training. There should be more examples of what the functions can do and more instructions and explanations to the process."
"Sometimes there are issues with security policies within the company. Some parts get blacked. There are some drawbacks when we use it connected to the cloud. We need to convince clients to open some parts. This is often an issue that originates from the company itself, not Power Automate."
"The thing which needs the most improvement is really the documentation. It should have better details of the processes."
"We are looking to see more features implemented there are already available in UiPath or Automation Anywhere."
"In an upcoming release, the exception handling mechanism could improve. The issue that we are facing is whenever there is a failure in any of the middle execution and if you wanted to navigate it to the end of the last line of execution, we do not have this feature available. If we had this feature it would make it even more stable."
"The integration of our system into Power Automate was a bit tricky. We had to put a data lake in place before automating anything because we were not very structured in terms of data."
"WinAutomation is missing a lot of options that are available in UiPath."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Due to the pricing model, the solution is more convenient than any other tools."
"It depends and varies a lot according to the licensing terms. There is no cost to maintain if we have less than 10 forms. Microsoft only charges if there are more than 10 forms. So, most of the companies can survive without paying anything extra. It is included in the Office 365 licensing."
"Good price-quality relationship. Its features for its price were the best fit for our company."
"This solution is reasonably priced and offers a free trial period."
"When accompanying customers, we discuss the license requirements. Based on these requirements, we suggest whether a per-user plan or multiple platforms per-user plan would be best."
"It is free for us. It is embedded directly in the Office package."
"Microsoft Power Automate is expensive. The full license is quite expensive."
"You pay for use and if you want a premium connector or adapter, but a lot of things are available for free."
