JorgeValdez - PeerSpot reviewer
A simple and intuitive tool that provides more features than other tools in the market
The solution can be used to model customer journeys and business processes I use the solution for my customers to model banking products. I also model and define business capability. The biggest value of the product is that we can use it to work in different industries like government,…
VikasKumar16 - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"The most valuable parts of this solution are the richness of its features and its easy interface."
"The strength of MEGA HOPEX lies in its ability to customize the metamodel."
"The main feature I find crucial in MEGA HOPEX is the catalog view, which provides a comprehensive visualization of all artifacts in one repository. Another valuable aspect is the availability of out-of-the-box outcomes, such as strategy maps and BPA models, eliminating the need for additional configuration. MEGA HOPEX allows users to focus on specific business areas, like risk management or data governance, providing a high-level overview while enabling deep dives into specific areas of interest. For risk management, MEGA HOPEX allows users to assess impacts, create recovery plans, and track action plans."
"I have observed MegaHOPEX has capabilities in architecture and other areas."
"You do not need to be a professional of enterprise modeling to contribute to the enrichment and improvement of the enterprise repository."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the reuse of common enterprise components and entities."
"Its availability is very good."
"The most valuable feature is the completeness of HOPEX's meta-model. It's a strong meta-model that's rigid but comprehensive. It's a logical fit for our understanding of how we want things modeled in our database."
"The key feature of SS&C that I find valuable is the general workflow visibility."
"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."
"Some important features include the language capabilities, which are crucial since RPA has to read the documents provided by the customer."
 

Cons

"The initial setup is a little complex."
"The solution lacks additional models compared to other tools."
"They do tend to push people to their professional services, instead of helping the customers with their problems. I understand this is their business. At the same time, however, they need to work on fact sheets or offer some program to help the customers who want to implement it themselves and to make it run properly in their environment."
"MegaHOPEX lacks comprehensive features that a governance tool should have, particularly in data governance. Furthermore, I have doubts about how risk management and other modules are connected to work together efficiently."
"We would like to see integration with other products, such as being able to use our workflow with SharePoint and Microsoft Office."
"Scalability can be a problem sometimes."
"It takes a long time to learn how to use HOPEX. It's hard to work with it because the user interface is bad. For example, if you want to build a complex system diagram, you need a lot of knowledge to do this correctly and make it readable. In MEGA, you need to create a report and it takes a long time to publish it. The publishing is offline. With RDoC, everything is online."
"The product must improve integration with other tools."
"There is a need for improved integration with external systems in SS&C."
"Blue Prism is more costly than UiPath in terms of robotic licenses and orchestrators."
"I noticed that it lacks the ability to automatically record the process steps like some of its competitors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is very expensive."
"The pricing depends on the number of licenses purchased."
"I've been told that MEGA HOPEX is very expensive, which is why small organizations dismiss the tool. It's complex and costly versus other simpler and cheaper solutions."
"The price of the support depends on the vendors that are reselling this module or the MEGA HOPEX version 5. We are on premium support and are their only partners in the GCC, we have a premium support contract with them. The support we have is not with the client. The client does not bear the cost, it's us who bear the cost."
"If you want to use additional features, such as the Risk Management capability, then it is a little too expensive."
"The tool is relatively expensive."
"The product has a high cost."
"The product is reasonably priced for the value it offers. There's a good balance between cost and features."
