Account Director at a tech services company with 11-50 employees

Automates processes efficiently with cost-effective scaling and robust customer support

Web scraping is quite good since it offers a lot of possibilities. Another important feature for me is its compatibility with MBI, the Power that is ISEQUADO Centers. I appreciate the ability to scale and increase the number of bots or studios without additional expense. Automate's non-reliance on additional orchestrators makes it quite cost-effective.

Ishmael Munyai

Robotics Process Automation (RPA) Developer at Apollo Studios

With an easy initial setup phase in place, the tool needs to provide functionalities like web scraping to users

It is a very scalable solution. In ElectroNeek, you can build your project in modular programming or with the use of sub-programs. You can have a lot of sub-programs that make up a whole project. If you don't wanna use the drag-and-drop activities, you can use JavaScript or Python instead. So it's very useful when you are working with things such as SPS. Actually, you can write scripts to support all the product functionalities with Python and manage the product's functions. You will find a company named Apollo Studios on the website of ElectroNeek. I think they are one of the best companies in South Africa that entered into a partnership with ElectroNeek.

Amjed Al-Tayyan

Governance Director at Diyar United Company

Automation streamlines onboarding and reduces the load on customer service agents

As the head of the division, I do not use UiPath myself. However, I am the decision-maker, so I review the features. The combination of both full-attended and half-attended automation, where you can automate tasks and still interact when required, is very useful. It provides efficiency by freeing staff from unnecessary tasks, resulting in a balanced workload and more productive use of an employee's time. The tool has a noticeable ROI, and the investment is worth every penny as it reduces tedious tasks and improves scalability. It is very easy to use. During the COVID lockdown, my son who was 11 at the time attended a UiPath and Automation Anywhere training with me. He has already automated his school tasks requiring saving data and uploading some documents to the portal. If a kid can do this, it shows how easy it is.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's very easy to use. That's a big selling point for it. It has got a drag-and-drop interface, so you can quickly deploy bots."

"The ability to connect to websites and pull data is the solution's most valuable feature."

"The most valuable features of Fortra's Automate include its FTP functionality and file manipulation capabilities."

"We have tried other RPA solutions like UiPath or Automation Anywhere. They are fantastic products but complex, and it's hard to understand everything. It would be best if you had a skilled developer or several. Automate is easy to implement, administer, and use. It's appropriate for us because our cases are simple and easy to automate. We don't need complicated tools with many features; We prefer to get a significant ROI quickly."

"I like the interface; it makes managing automation easy. We can set different schedules and templates for each task."

"This tool has machine learning and voice recognition and computer vision, which are both quite useful aspects. These aren't available in other tools. It's a good addition to this tool and it gives the solution an edge on the market."

"The solution is continuously adding more integrations to help with workflows and bot and task creation."

"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."

More Automate pros

"My favorite feature is that you can have unlimited bots without having to buy more licenses. That's a powerful option for scalability."

"The cost is the best thing about ElectroNeek."

"We find the OCR feature very valuable, due to the corrector recognition that it provides; this is very useful for document processing."

"ElectroNeek was extremely easy to use, especially its UI was easy to navigate with limited training."

"The drag and drop feature, which is no code, is very useful for me because I am not a technical person. It is very user-friendly."

"The solution is user-friendly with a really good UI and ID."

"The product's setup is straightforward."

"The most valuable feature is the price."

More ElectroNeek pros

"The most valuable feature in Studio are the macros."

"UiPath's integration features are highly valuable to us. We are able to achieve a lot with them."

"The solution provides ease of access for users with limited knowledge."

"It's accessible, but also has enough features for more hands-on developers to be able to do what they need to do. From the two that I've seen, it was the more user-friendly one."

"The solution has helped our organization save costs. It’s likely saved us about $10 million."

"The fact that we have the opportunity to access all of our services without any requirements from our side suits us very well."

"The feature I like the most is ONEWEB UI automation. UiPath's OCR technology also works well. There is another feature called Action Center that lets you decide what happens after the data is captured."

"UiPath has saved the company costs."

More UiPath Platform pros

Cons

"I would prefer not having to log in to update a ticket; being able to respond via email would be beneficial."

"The solution has a very weak knowledge base."

"There is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."

"The vendor is currently working on a solution that allows us to automatically create a process that is based on a document that we receive via email."

"Some challenges include the system being too loaded or delayed in taking instructions and responding quickly as needed."

"While this solution is continually improving, as it is now, the user interface could use improvement when I compare it to a product like UiPath."

"The intelligent automation feature could be improved. It's interesting because it's simple, but the automation quality isn't always good. It's easy to use, but sometimes you need to make a slight improvement to the automation, and that's not so easy."

"The OCR for Hebrew text needs to be improved."

More Automate cons

"I think that this solution could improve remote desktop interactions."

"The solution works well with Google Chrome, but not with Microsoft Edge, which is the browser we use for automation."

"ElectroNeek comes with three activities and we cannot add activities like we can with uiPADs."

"Its price could definitely be lower."

"The pricing is an area with a shortcoming, and from an improvement perspective, it needs to be made cheaper."

"The solution needs to improve its stability."

"It's not applicable to very large enterprises and for difficult work or more complex processes."

"When I wanted to use web scraping for tables in web applications, I found through online forums that such functionality or activity is currently not working as it shows."

More ElectroNeek cons

"The new features or functionalities that come with UiPath upgrades don't work perfectly in the initial days. Their new releases are not stable. We always find some set of issues. I have to work with the UiPath team for a week or so to resolve the issues, and then I'm able to use it. The stabilization should be there. We expect UiPath to reduce the number of errors before rolling out new features to end-users or customers."

"We'd like the upgrades to be a bit easier and more flexible."

"I like the classic experience for developing, and as a developer, I am used to it, but they are going to the modern experience with selectors and other things. It might have certain advantages, but I do not like it."

"UiPath does not have a delivery product."

"I would really like the ability to bring OCR connectors into Studio X, if possible. Right now we're only using OCR and Studio as that's where the plugins are available."

"UiPath is quite expensive compared to Power Automate. That's the main difference, and we have to purchase a new license for every feature."

"You can't get the response that you want until the people in the field decide that they want to change and adopt it. That will be the challenge. Managing the change is huge for us. It's always an obstacle. It's not that, can you automate something, it's more of a question of, internally, will they let you automate something?"

"I'm learning it for the training for the RPA associate, and I'm about 70% through there. UiPath's academy courses have been helpful in onboarding or being up to speed with UiPath. However, it has been tougher because the programming that I learned in school is very different from the programming done today. I am sure the younger people will pick it up much faster. There is so much out there, and there is so much to learn because it is not one software package. It provides the ability to use all software packages and interconnect with them. So, the opportunities are amazing but also intimidating."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe the price falls within a reasonable range, which significantly influenced our decision regarding the product. This aspect is crucial for any technological solution, especially in our country where enterprises might be hesitant to invest heavily in something untested or uncertain about its practicality and potential returns."

"It comes with a package that costs approximately $20,000 USD per year."

"Once you buy the software, you just pay for the support for backend help."

"I like the way this solution is priced because you can buy a license, or you can buy the software outright."

"From a distributor's perspective, one of the biggest selling points of Automate is its price point."

"It has gone up in price. The price of Fortra's Automate has increased since we first started using it. It does a lot but also costs a lot. It was a lot more affordable before Fortra owned the software."

"From a distributor's side, one of the biggest selling points is its price point. Without going into any numbers, compared to UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and Blue Prism, we're significantly cheaper. The main difference is that other competitors usually charge you per process. However, in Automate's case, it's priced per bot. So, a bot can run multiple processes at the same time, but you are only priced for a single bot."

"Compared to other products, the pricing model for this solution is much more convenient, flexible, and adaptable to the Portuguese reality."

More Automate pricing and cost advice

"My company has made a payment towards the purchase of a license from ElectorNeek."

"Its price could definitely be lower. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. There is no additional cost to the standard licensing fees."

"I believe we had a Silver Membership or something similar annually."

"I give the price an eight out of ten."

"It's very affordable and the licensing is billed on a yearly basis."

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a seven."

"The pricing is competitive, and for large-scale use cases, UiPath may make better sense cost-wise. However, it is not very viable for small-scale use cases. Power Automate is much cheaper and has similar functionalities. UiPath offers two options. If you choose the on-premises option, then you would have to manage it yourself, but if you go for the fully managed one, then there won't be any overhead cost. We are gradually moving to Power Automate and Power Apps because we are already on the Microsoft stack, and it helps us reduce the footprint. If the cost of UiPath were comparable to that of Power Automate, then UiPath would have been the better alternative."

"Compared to other RPA tools, UiPath is a much more expensive solution."

"...it's a bit pricey."

"I love the flexibility because ownership is willing to work with us to make sure commercials are viable."

"The price of UiPath is comparatively higher than Selenium. Selenium is a free tool, and UiPath is quite expensive."

"Compared to other automation tools, UiPath is expensive."

"I think the pricing is reasonable. I don't think it's too much of a stretch, and I think it's where it should be."

"Blue Prism definitely has a simpler licensing structure, but I feel like that's almost a shot in the foot at certain points. It also gets kind of deceptive. There's a crossover point at which, if you're scaling up to a high number of bots, UiPath path definitely does come out cheaper. But the initial implementation has a higher cost."
