Having experience with coding is essential to fully utilize Power Automate.
I have contacted the technical support of Microsoft regarding some issues, and their support is good.
Ideally, there should be separate support for different modules, particularly for organizations using several different SAP products.

Microsoft Power Automate offers scalable solutions, though licensing and external complexities may affect scalability in larger enterprises.
Sentiment score
6.1
SAP Signavio Process Intelligence is scalable and adaptable, but opinions vary on expansion ease due to structural constraints.
Microsoft Power Automate is scalable enough for me and my customers.
Due to its inability to support multi-event logs, I have to re-extract data even if it already exists, leading to duplication.

Room For Improvement

Microsoft Power Automate struggles with high costs, limited integration, complex workflows, and needs improvements in AI, RPA, and documentation.
SAP Signavio Process Intelligence faces challenges in usability, integration, feature limitations, and needs improvements in AI, blockchain, and pricing.
Developers should have discretion over which view they want to use, either the old designer view or the new designer view, as Microsoft is forcing the new designer view, which most developers don't prefer.
It would be better to make it a wizard more than requiring coding.
We recently did an analysis in which we were almost going to pay 10 times the cost of a normal process mining tool if we used SAP Signavio.
It would be helpful if they have their e-learning content segregated for different roles—for example, training specific to business users, training for leads, and training for consultants and analysts who are going to work on the tool as developers.
They should work on their networks and improve their servers because SAP Signavio Process Intelligence is in use more nowadays, resulting in busy servers.
 

Setup Cost

Microsoft Power Automate is cost-effective with flexible pricing, but premium services can increase overall costs for organizations.
SAP Signavio pricing is complex and non-transparent, with potential high costs, especially for non-SAP processes and large organizations.
Microsoft Power Automate is reasonably priced compared to others in the market.
If it is an SAP process, it becomes a little cheaper, but if it is a non-SAP process, then it becomes highly expensive.
 

Valuable Features

Microsoft Power Automate streamlines automation with low-code tools, Office 365 integration, extensive connectors, and strong community support.
SAP Signavio Process Intelligence seamlessly integrates process tools, enhancing insights and decision-making with strong SAP module integration and user-friendly features.
If I want to fill something in Power Platform and need to fill another item in Salesforce, instead of doing the same task in different platforms, I can directly fill it in Power Platform and integrate it with Salesforce through API in Microsoft Power Automate, and my work is complete.
We have saved thousands of hours by automating tasks that would have been labor-intensive and error-prone if done manually.
This feature provides validation and improvement of the process using process mining.
The best feature of SAP Signavio Process Intelligence is that it is not just Process Intelligence; it's a complete suite that comes with insights and mapping.
SAP Signavio Process Intelligence is just one of the modules of SAP Signavio, and there are approximately four to five modules that are interconnected, giving us a 360-degree view of your organization's digital twin, which is really helpful.
SAP Signavio Process Intelligence has an upper hand compared to other solutions because the integration from other software is far better in SAP.

Facilitate informed decision-making through data analytics and efficient process automation
The most valuable feature for me is the process mining capability. It helps show the optimal way to utilize a process by discovering, validating, and improving the process automation. For example, when building a process from start to end, I may not be sure if it is efficient or optimized. This feature provides validation and improvement of the process using process mining.
