Featured Reviews

XavierEspinoza - PeerSpot reviewer
Internal System Coordinator at Red CEDIA
Offers a simplified architecture with outstanding integration capabilities
The integration capabilities of GeneXus are highly valuable for our organization. The metadata obtained within the logic of different systems is also vital. Due to the solution, our company team doesn't have to work with multiple languages and integrations can be made with C Sharp. JavaScript can also be used with GeneXus, the tool takes charge of all the rest and has a simple architecture. The solution can be used out of the box without facing any issues and nothing much needs to be done with frameworks. In our case we need to use Python with GeneXus, we use Ironpython to embed python code in C# .
VikasKumar16 - PeerSpot reviewer
Technical Auditor at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees
Has defined complex workflows and handled detailed automation scenarios efficiently
It requires extensive knowledge if somebody wants to work on SS&C Blue Prism, compared to other tools. The downside is you need to be very aware of the tool. You need to know how to write the workflow and have a detailed understanding of SS&C Blue Prism. It takes more time to learn compared to other tools in the market which are more user-friendly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In Knowledge Base, being able to model the workflow before developing the screens is great. We first work with the tables or the transactions using GeneXus and then we work on the screens."
"The solution provides ease of programming and the speed of delivery of demands."
"I find the implementation process of GeneXus to be easy."
"It is fast in creating systems and connects to the database quickly."
"The integration capabilities of GeneXus are highly valuable for our organization"
"With GeneXus, we can create logical representations of transactions in the form of objects."
"The integration module is the most valuable feature of this solution for our business, as it allows our clients to create new systems based on their outdated databases, across all API's."
"The most valuable feature is that GeneXus works with several languages. It's possible to develop chatbots and other functionalities."
"Some important features include the language capabilities, which are crucial since RPA has to read the documents provided by the customer."
"We have a lot of customer requests on a daily basis for different use cases, and we have different processes for that."
"I find the design studio, where I can build the automation, and the control room feature, which allows me to run and monitor the automation, to be the most useful."
"The key feature of SS&C that I find valuable is the general workflow visibility."
 

Cons

"We would like to see more extensions and more user controls added to the front-end of this solution, in order to help developers manage the website."
"Code generation is highly time-consuming for GeneXus"
"It would be helpful to have additional assisted processing with training."
"It's expensive for a company."
"The tool needs to be tuned before being used. You need some experience to get the best out of the tool."
"I told them to add something about Angular. They're already working on adding it."
"There are issues in integrating it with other solutions."
"It would be better if GeneXus had a wiki. The developer needs some experience to work with the tools. It would be better if they could improve the community. If we have some problem, I open a ticket that takes us to a board, and I have to describe my issue in detail. If the tools have a general community for us to explore with some videos or some articles, I think that that may help the developer."
"Blue Prism is more costly than UiPath in terms of robotic licenses and orchestrators."
"There is a need for improved integration with external systems in SS&C."
"I noticed that it lacks the ability to automatically record the process steps like some of its competitors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I give the cost of the solution a four out of ten."
"I know that its licenses are generally per year, and in the past, the license for GeneXus was around $5,000, but I don't know what's the current price of the GeneXus license."
"The cost of a GeneXus license is extremely high. At the same time, one person using the solution can do the work of three Java or data developers. I think that's why they charge so much. It's too expensive, which is one reason it isn't widely used."
"The tool's price is good."
"I don't know about the price because I am an employee, but I hear it's cheaper than other tools."
"People tend to work with GeneXus if it's cheap, but GeneXus does have licensing policies...Moreover, the cost of resourcing work in GeneXus may make it more expensive than other programming languages."
"This solution offers multi-plan licenses, depending on the size of the company and the features required, as opposed to being priced per user/device."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten"
