Excellent end-to-end workflow management but document extraction needs improvement
There are a few areas that can be improved. Firstly, Kryon RPA needs to enhance the robustness of its multi-board architecture to ensure the availability of bots on multiple machines. Secondly, Kryon RPA should focus on improving document extraction. When compared to other integrated products, such as those offered by its competitors, its document extraction capabilities need more attention. Additionally, Kryon RPA should work on enhancing the allocation response for multiple bots to maximize their utilization. These are the key aspects that require improvement, along with the inclusion of a high availability feature. While I hope the data is stored in the cloud, I'm not entirely certain. However, it's crucial to ensure seamless integration with third-party vendors to enhance the usage of the product console.
CV
CTO at Atheneum
Simplifies integrations and is suitable for large companies
Sometimes, when our company develops using the latest technology, the knowledge is not yet cycled down to the tool's support team. The tool's support team is not mature enough to handle the tool. The promotion of a feature before it is mature may cause issues, and I feel that sometimes the deployment of such features is a little too early. The tool will release a feature, but it will have bugs in it. We face challenges because the tool's team doesn't have the knowledge to deal with the issues in the product's new features. When SAP develops something, if the tool's team doesn't know how to support it, it becomes a problem because now we have to access developers to get the information that is not readily available.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has been helpful in reducing the manpower and error rate since we are able to run tasks 24/7 without interruptions. As humans definitely take breaks and there may be absenteeism that is unexpected, the solution provides continuous work. Humans tend to make errors once in a while, but the solution has almost zero percent errors."
"We use PowerBuilder as our application building codex. Kryon adds flexibility when we have the functionality of SQL, where we can take sets of data out of the back-end and run complex computations or do a bunch of data validations inside the wizard. It can save us sometimes dozens of steps, then if we were to try and do those same reviews using the user interface completely. The balance that we get from using Kryon RPA, alongside being able to screen scrape and frequent screen, gives us an advantage that we haven't had previously with any of our other attempts at robotic process automation."
"The number of commands it gives us to edit and modify is really good. It also captures screen activities and plays them back."
"In the last month, we achieved 11,000 activities done by robot, before Kryon we did 500 each month."
"When the users utilize the Kryon solution, it cuts off more than 50 percent of the processing time as the logic has been pre-built."
"Troubleshooting and debugging could be improved. It's missing a proper debugger. It's very difficult, based on the log files and the fact that it doesn't have a proper debugger, to troubleshoot issues. It will sometimes end with no indication as to why it ended and it becomes a bit of trial and error."
"The thing that we find the most value in is the Process Discovery component and the ability to really see what users are doing on a day-to-day basis. We're starting to make sense of the processes that they're doing and getting visibility into what they're doing. Overall, the Process Discovery is very good."
"For the processes that we have automated, the efficiency has increased by 100 percent."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it offers an integrated development environment."
 

Cons

"Often, it's difficult to loop through a large data set unless the bot has access to the Excel file with specific settings and shortcodes."
"The only unstable part is Studio where you build this stuff; in our version, the 5.25, it has a memory leak, and if you leave it open for too long, eventually it just freezes."
"I would expect that in the first year there is no ROI."
"The fact is that we found this bug something like six months ago and it's still not in the new version."
"I would improve the object recognition features, making it not linked to the screen resolution or the position."
"There have been some times where we have had to go through explaining the issue a couple times because it has gone through a couple of people's hands."
"I would expect that in the first year there is no ROI. It has to be measured over three or five years."
"What we are lacking is OCR, the ability to read text."
"The tool's support team is not mature enough to handle the tool."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We're paying in the neighborhood of about $66,000 a year. The cost is fairly similar to its competitors' costs. It might have been a little bit more reasonable than the others, and that cost was with Process Discovery in addition."
"We've more than broken even over on the license. Year to date, we are at $120,000 in savings."
"Kryon is slightly more expensive compared to UiPath."
"Can't beat the price... There are different pricing levels for every bot or unattended bot. You can buy however many you want. You'll need an additional virtual machine for it to work on."
"We are probably saving $6000 to $8000 a month in labor costs. It's not a ton, but we're right around $60,000 to $80,000 a year with our current deployment."
"It is very cheap. I would rate the pricing a three out of ten, with ten being expensive."
"We have a yearly license. It's about $5,000 per year."
"Compared to its competitors, Kryon RPA's pricing is very competitive."
"The product is not cheaply priced."
