"Fortra's Automate performs the job effectively and has the capability to alert us of any issues."
"I find it very user-friendly. Our IT department and other departments can seamlessly collaborate without requiring extensive training.

However, we couldn't solely rely on a drag-and-drop approach to implement and utilize the solution within our departments."
"A great feature that you seldom see in these kind of systems is the ability to use a database as trigger to launch a task. This is something I asked for a few years ago and that was added."
"Compared to other vendors, it's the scheduling tool because a lot of vendors want to charge you extra for their enterprise-level license to have a scheduling tool built in to give you the ability to set up regular schedules to run and do certain data checks."
"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 pricing is excellent. I would give them perfect marks in that regard."

"Its technical support team is helpful."

"Fortra's Automate is not as reliable as I would like it to be."
"They do not encrypt passwords, so this is an issue with HIPAA compliance."
"I would like to see some better web automation, a wizard like the one in the product WinAutomation would be very nice."
"The solution has a very weak knowledge base."
"The technical support could be better. We suffer from language barriers, as we are in Argentina."
"Protegrity Data Security could improve by having more integration."
"The solution's UI could be better."
