Good for email routing and management features but additional costs for plug-ins

Pros

"The email routing, consolidation of the reports, and management features are strong."

Cons

"Power Automate has fewer features and more limitations in general. It's not as mature a product as some of the others, like UiPath or Automate Anywhere."

Fairest licensing, high ROI, excellent support, and easy deployment

Pros

"Triggering and scheduling were pretty good. There was no real commitment with WinAutomation because the licensing was very fair and you could trigger bots very easily. "

Cons

"They've already improved it, but I guess a testing suite would be nice to be able to test your automations in real time."

A modern, fast solution that integrates with almost everything and comes at a great price

Pros

"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. "

Cons

"They can provide a deeper level of feedback about running processes. When I compare it to Blue Prism, the control room has slightly less information about the running processes and possible errors. I'm not a pro, so I am not entirely sure if this is a core feature of the product or if it is because of the way our partners have developed it or set it up. "

Easy to use, plenty of features, and priced well

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Power Automate is the many functionalities, and ease of use. We had summer interns from college in their second year of engineering and they were able to start the building process quickly within a day."

Cons

"More OCR and AI capabilities are needed to improve the solution. Other solutions have better features, such as Blue Prism and UiPath."

Efficient RPA and create automated workflows

Pros

"Instead of manually triggering payments through the website, everything was done through robotic process automation (RPA), saving us a lot of time."

Cons

"Automatic selectors that allow me to select parts of a website could be more adaptable."

Pros

Simple to implement, but on the governance side, there isn't enough documentation

Pros

"It comes as a part of the Microsoft suite, which makes it an easy sell."

Cons

"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."
