An RPA tool to automate functions, tasks, and processes that also allows users to do coding from the scratch
In my company, we use AutomationEdge as an RPA tool, which has to automate the automatic functions within our company on a daily basis for repetitive tasks. We need to automate the aforementioned functions in a short period of time with AutomationEdge. I work in the banking sector, and we use…

Removes the burden of having to do some tasks manually
Initially, in version 3, Jiffy.ai did not have support for containerization. In our environment, we are heavy users of containers and container illustrators. So, the initial deployment option was running based on individual hosts that we deployed in the cloud. That created a singularity in the way that we deployed services in our system. However, in the latest version release (4), they have full support for containerization. This has been a great improvement and one of the driving factors for switching from version 3 to version 4 very soon. The containerization capability will make a huge difference in our deployment process, because it doesn't create exceptions in the way we would deploy services. All the rest of the system is containers, so if you now have a product from a vendor that doesn't support containerization that means you must have a different process of deploying services, then accompany it with corresponding policies, because we have policies on how systems need to be configured to be reliable, secure, etc. Also, there are the BCDR aspects of it: the disaster recovery and business continuity. So, if you're introducing a new way of deploying services, now you need to have a BCDR plan dedicated to that as well, as opposed to deploying everything using a single model of deployment (mainly containers). Therefore, this will simplify a lot of things, in terms of DevOps.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The chatbot that they have is most valuable. It is one of the best features because they own it, and they don't need to integrate with other parties to have a chatbot. This is one of the main features. The rest of the features are common to all RPA tools or vendors available in the market."
"The studio design is fine compared to other similar products. There is nothing extraordinary about it, but at the same time, there are not any negatives."
"The product's most valuable feature is the executor."
"If we want to change your processes, we can code it from scratch, making it a beneficial feature of the product."
"We can quickly adapt to our end users."
"The most valuable feature of AutomationEdge is creating accounts."
"The ability to automate our processes with external plug-ins and zero code is the most valuable feature."
"It helps us with cost optimization and easy implementation."
"The most valuable feature is the computer vision or OCR. That has a lot of use cases in real life. A lot of man hours can be saved, as we've seen in the finance processes... The feedback I have gotten from the team is that the OCR is quite powerful."
"With the customization option, we can write custom expressions using its compatibility with Python or other programming languages."
"Its initial setup process was quite efficient."
"It is a one stop solution for automating process. The modular way that is assigned and works together follows a certain logic, and it encompasses a wide range of processes in a very structured and logical manner."
"The biggest driver was the cost savings. We wanted to improve productivity and save costs. Therefore, we gave most of the mundane tasks currently being done by a human to a bot. Some of the mundane tasks were reading invoices and keying in the data. We are talking about 15,000 documents every day. That is a huge volume that needs a lot of people. With the bot, it is just a fraction of the cost, because there is a huge savings in terms of manpower."
"I found the invoice data extraction very exciting. It is really good."
"It removes the burden of having to do some tasks manually. However, we are just using it in production for a single project. It saves us a lot of time in terms of extracting that information. So far, it has made a big impact."
"The way Jiffy.ai integrates into existing infrastructure has been great for us. Our company is pretty stringent when it comes to cyber security and integrating with our apps... We've definitely had very strong scrutiny over this platform and this work, and even within that, it's been really successful at being able to integrate."
 

Cons

"There are some shortcomings in the product's stability that need improvement."
"AutomationEdge's ecosystem has shortcomings and needs improvement. When we compare AutomationEdge to other RPA tools in our company, we find that it has a very minor online community."
"The price of the solution could be improved."
"With other automation solutions in the market, we can simulate the process in our notebooks where the solution creates the code for us, but with AutomationEdge we can't do this."
"They could provide more technologies for IT and security to enhance machine learning capabilities."
"The installation process could improve. It was difficult to complete."
"With the solution, customizing software can be time-consuming."
"It's not an intuitive tool."
"I believe this is also being addressed, but a lot of the platform work, as we were putting in new versions or making some updates, was, ironically, very manual. It's improved greatly, but I would imagine that's an area that they're probably still working on, on the backend, to help when it comes to what we need to do for platform support."
"The solution's support services need improvement."
"The solution has just not closed the gap of being accessible to non-IT users. If you are a non-IT person, then this all looks like gobbledygook. Maybe that is something that can be improved upon."
"The UI or the UX has room for improvement. The approach for designing the workflow is not that straightforward. It's quite difficult."
"The setup process could definitely be better."
"Initially, in version 3, Jiffy.ai did not have support for containerization. In our environment, we are heavy users of containers and container illustrators. So, the initial deployment option was running based on individual hosts that we deployed in the cloud. That created a singularity in the way that we deployed services in our system."
"When using UiPath automation, we could just Google issues if we were stuck with something. In the initial days with Jiffy.ai, we could not get that type of information from Google because there wasn't much of a community."
"They are still new in the market. Or, at least, they are still a small player. They require a lot of improvement in terms of learning material as well as the community developers. If you compare Jiffy.ai to an established solution, like UiPath, you can go to YouTube and find a lot of learning material posted by UiPath, partners, and other people in the community. However, for Jiffy.ai, you won't find that available in the market. Because of this it is very hard for us to find talent in the market. Most of the developers in the market are used to the bigger players. For Jiffy.ai, if you search a resume because you are trying to find someone who has used Jiffy.ai, you won't be able to find it. So, when we onboard a new person, we want them to learn this new system, but it is a bit hard for them to pick up because there are no external learning materials on the Internet."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is expensive but its value can justify the cost."
"The product is available at the lowest price."
"I give the price of the solution a nine out of ten."
"If you are looking for a budget solution, you can consider AE. It has all the features. Scaling it is way easier because of the cost itself."
"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."
"Price-wise, AutomationEdge is pretty affordable, making it not so expensive when you compare this with other tools in the market."
"Pricing can be made better. Currently, I think the pricing is based on the market. The pricing also depends on the business partners that offer you the solution."
"Its license is yearly. There are no additional costs to the standard fee. It is a standard license."
"The licensing is not expensive; it is quite cheap. The expensive part is to support and maintain it. Understandably, we engage them to do a lot of work that could have been done by our own staff, if we had an RPA team. I wouldn't hold that against them. It is just that the cost of support is on the higher side for us."
"The pricing is quite competitive. As a small player in the market, they are quite aggressive in their pricing. With the features that they offer, it is quite worth the value."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"If cost is of concern, then start with Jiffy. If cost is not your main concern there are a few premium products out there, but they come with a huge price tag."
"The pricing and license make sense. They have a model based on the concurrency of the workforce, which is very suitable in our case. The savings are great on the licensing cost."
"I like that it is very cost-efficient."
