We performed a comparison between Microsoft Power Automate and OpenText Robotic Process Automation based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about UiPath, Microsoft, Automation Anywhere and others in Robotic Process Automation (RPA)."The email routing, consolidation of the reports, and management features are strong."
"The most valuable feature is the ability and ease of linking multiple connectors within the same flow."
"The whole platform seamlessly integrates well."
"The solution helps automate manual tasks and interacts with multiple applications."
"Overall, it is a great service at the given price. It is very modern, and it integrates in a great way with pretty much anything. It is also fast."
"I like Power Automate because it is very easy to use for users who don't have IT knowledge."
"I believe document reading has been beneficial when dealing with Microsoft."
"The technical support is good."
"It lets us automate almost anything, even with the legacy tools. It is very easy for us now to automate with legacy tools, which used to be difficult earlier. We work with a lot of other automation tools from Micro Focus, such as Operation Orchestration, but these tools can only connect to the API. So, there was a gap when we wanted to automate older and legacy tools that didn't have any API to connect to. We can now also automate without any changes in the customer environment. We don't need to change anything in the way that the customer environment works."
"Tech support could be more hands-on. Right now, they simply direct users to documentation instead of directly dealing with issues."
"Some automation features on some programs did not work smoothly."
"Its licensing model should be improved. The pricing should be more visible and transparent. When you consume services, there are too many criteria to figure out how much it is going to cost you to use the product to its full extent. It should also support visual process editing, which is a standard feature for BPMN 2.0 compliance. They should improve the visual designer."
"AI-enabled voice recognition features could be included in the product."
"This solution should be more resilient, with robots more capable of recovering after an error."
"On the governance side, there isn't enough documentation on how to govern Power Automate. People just build bespoke automation, which then becomes a problem point for different companies."
"It should work better for Angular websites, as it has a lot of problems."
"It can have customizations like enterprise solutions. In the approval section, there should be an option to reassign approval to some other employee. It would be good if we are able to create custom tables by linking to an item, and there is an integration with the HTML table through HTTP calls or Swagger connectors."
"It currently supports only on-premises deployments. They can include support for cloud deployments. It should provide us the ability to choose a robot for executing a workflow. We want to control which robot executes a certain workflow. Right now, it automatically chooses the robot that is going to execute our workflow. It should also provide the ability to get filters on the outputs of the steps. We have each workflow as a step, and each step has some output. We would like to have the functionality to execute some script or some logic on these outputs to format the tests directly on the variables."
