Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution helps automate manual tasks and interacts with multiple applications.""The product is very reliable and very easy to use.""The most valuable feature of the solution is that it easily integrates with Azure DevOps.""Good core applications.""For people who already use Office 365, Power Automate is very easy to integrate and use.""It comes as a part of the Microsoft suite, which makes it an easy sell.""The most valuable feature is that it easily integrates with other Microsoft products, so it has multiple connectors. You can create solutions that connect to Teams, Outlook, SharePoint, and OneDrive.""The initial setup is pretty easy."

"The solution is based on Python which makes it very valuable.""The ability to create separate organizations on this platform makes it easier to bill each of the clients separately.""The product has a valuable business process automation feature.""I can use it as a library by importing Python scripts, allowing me to access its many features while working with coding.""The process execution and all features are very good.""I like the fact that it's very fast. The processing speed is good, and that's what matters to me. I also like that we don't have to bother with the infrastructure setup. We don't have to care about the status of the data set, as I believe the local group will provide it. We don't care about the licensing model. We only have to care about how long we are using it.""It supports Python runtime because of that, runtime also improves.""It offers high scalability and enables automation in ways that haven't been possible before."

Cons
"They need to come up with a little more on AI and precision discovery path to be able to record the processes.""When we scale up, we switch to another application.""Some automation features on some programs did not work smoothly.""There is a limitation in setting up loops, where it does not support multiple conditions.""There are frequent version updates and that impacts different algorithms so we have to adjust our code.""I was working on it for around three days and then took a break of about two days. When I went back to it, all of the Excel, and all the Excel functions, just disappeared. Completely vanished. When I looked up the help, it said that sometimes that happens when you're not connected to the internet.""Inability to use a lot of connectors without having a premium license.""Any task that is automated needs to be very simple. This tool does not seem to handle complicated tasks very well."

More Microsoft Power Automate Cons →

"An additional feature I'm looking for in Robocorp is SAP automation.""I don't like the complexity of deployment.""We would also like an integrated PDF reader and better integration with custom solutions. The built-in Excel customization is limited, but we can still accomplish what we want using Python. We must rely on Python to customize processes in Robocorp. I don't know about the latest IDE from Robocorp, but the old one doesn't have a lot of activities.""The deployment process is complex and not straightforward, especially for legacy modernization.""It would be better if it were more user-friendly for non-technical users. It would be better if they had some drag-and-drop features to create logic.""I preferred the user interface in the older versions. When troubleshooting, it's sometimes hard to find details about where things went wrong. You need to search a little harder. It takes more clicks to get to where you want to go. It can be somewhat confusing. When you run a process that fails, it takes you somewhere you may not expect.""They should fully develop Robocorp Studio because it would attract a lot of people to the Robocorp platform.""There are certain libraries in Python, such as those dealing with PDF automation and word files, that require the presence of certain external dependencies in the environment to be successfully used."

    Overview

    Microsoft Power Automate is a powerful tool that streamlines and automates tasks within an organization. 

    It is used for workflow automation, data integration, and creating automated notifications and approvals. 

    Power Automate connects different applications and services, such as SharePoint, Excel, and Outlook, to automate data transfer and synchronization. 

    Most robotic process automation initiatives fail to get off the ground because the current drag-and-drop offerings are expensive and frustrating for developers. Robocorp is a Python-based open source stack for automating applications and processes. Automate any task you can imagine with hundreds of keywords and libraries with performance, scalability, and security built-in. Our cloud robots can run on any platform from any machine, and scale horizontally to ensure mission-critical processes complete as efficiently as possible. Getting started is free, and our resource-based pricing ensures your costs are always straightforward - no matter how much your implementation grows.
