We performed a comparison between NICE Robotic Automation and Python RPA 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)."NICE is one of the only vendors that does attended and unattended out-of-the-box. Using the unattended processes we've been able to build a "feature library." We break each process down into workable chunks that we can save into a big library. The next time we come to automate a task, we already have chunks of that automation built."
"It is a kind of desktop automation. Its licensing model is a little bit different. It tends to be individual automation specific to a role. It excels at that."
"What we've done with the RTI client is that we've brought it into a bit more of a 21st-century feel. Our agents have the ability to move around when they want, click into stuff. They use it according to how their conversations go with the customer."
"It is easy to deploy. To do the automation in NICE, you really need to use your programming expertise. There are no inbuilt features in it, and you have to create all the required features, which can be very interesting for a programmer."
"Through interfaces called Callout (created with HTML code) it is possible to create a strong interactivity with the user. These interfaces can be extremely dynamic in relation to the behavior of a local or remote robotic flow."
"The deployment of NICE Robotic Automation is easy."
"Provides good automation features."
"Keyword-driven automation has been beneficial in streamlining operations."
"Instead of writing multiple lines of code, we can do it in a single statement."
"[During the upgrade] any issues, where it couldn't remotely connect to upgrade, I needed the floor plan so I could go to that PC and have a look at it. Often it was either that the PC was switched off or had a bug or some other application needed to be reset."
"We haven't found it to be as powerful as some of the other platforms. From a true RPA perspective, it is pretty far behind some of the other solutions. It has emerged as a more desktop automation kind of tool, but it lacks a lot of enterprise features. It is not really a true RPA because of its licensing, which is kind of user-initiated. It would be nice it can be deployed at a more enterprise licensing model versus a user-based model. It didn't have autonomous automation so far, and they have just released this feature. They have kind of hodgepodged a bunch of products together to get there, but it is not as seamless as other solutions."
"There is a need for NICE robotics to be more user-friendly."
"There are a few areas for improvement in the installation phase"
"Its connectivity with other applications should be improved. In the version that I was using, it would just stop interacting with the other application. Its graphical interface should also be improved. It should have a user-friendly interface. Sometimes, people find it very difficult to understand. One of the obstacles that I faced while programming was that if I needed any kind of help, there wasn't much content on the internet. It can be very difficult to find a solution for a particular issue."
"The solution is not as intuitive as it could be and integrating took a lot of time."
"The one thing I'd like to see, and NICE is already heavily investing in it, is improvement in the user interface itself. They call it the Designer and it's what the developers use. It is a bit clunky; that is the polite way to put it. I'd like to see it be a bit more user-friendly, a bit more intuitive, and to move to something a bit more web-based..."
"Support could be improved."
"When we call an API and there is an error, it doesn't tell you what the error is."
NICE Robotic Automation is ranked 22nd in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) with 7 reviews while Python RPA is ranked 23rd in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) with 2 reviews. NICE Robotic Automation is rated 7.6, while Python RPA is rated 8.6. The top reviewer of NICE Robotic Automation writes "Automating customer-facing processes has saved us considerable money and increased sales and customer satisfaction". On the other hand, the top reviewer of Python RPA writes "Helps streamline operations, the error handling capability is fairly good, and integrations are easy". NICE Robotic Automation is most compared with UiPath, Blue Prism, Automation Anywhere (AA) and Microsoft Power Automate, whereas Python RPA is most compared with Microsoft Power Automate.
