Associate Manager - Retail Banking Operation at IDFCFIRST

An RPA tool to automate functions, tasks, and processes that also allows users to do coding from the scratch

The initial setup of AutomationEdge was satisfactory for our company. For deployment for a large process, it will take around two months to develop the process. Else, it can be done in fifteen days. My organization gets to automate the banking processes using the solution. There are different requirements for different departments. Finance departments need something to automate their processes, and the requirements may vary for the information management department. There is a different type of automation requirement if there are some secretive documents that we have to keep on triggering mail.

SAP BTP Developer at Wipro Limited

Offers integration of the document extraction service into SAP ALC, enabling the direct upload and extraction of details

I found that SAP Intelligent RPA can be somewhat unstable when using SAP GUI. When we upgraded from SAP GUI version 7.50 to version 7.70, we had to update our SAP Intelligent RPA screens even though the screens were the same. This was difficult and time-consuming. The one I would like to see is in context with the screens, if they are using the same SAP UI, and if it updates, it should not be changed. At least it should be able to identify the screen. There should be more of an error, like a proper error feature, in future releases. Sometimes, we don't understand why that automation is not learning what, like, where it is stuck, what the reason is, or what the criteria we are missing to add. A proper error message would be helpful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We can quickly adapt to our end users."

"It is a valuable tool for developing efficient solutions, especially in finance and banking."

"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."

"If we want to change your processes, we can code it from scratch, making it a beneficial feature of the product."

"The support from the vendor is very good."

"The product's most valuable feature is the executor."

"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."

"It helps us with cost optimization and easy implementation."

More AutomationEdge pros

"Most of the details are already in the help portal and SAP notes are available. It is well documented as part of the product support."

"Contextor is a good solution for a Citrix environment. It's the first with this tool. Other tools provide the same functionality, but not with the Citrix environment."

"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."

"The initial setup of SAP Contextor is easy."

"The most valuable feature of SAP Contextor is that everyone is in one place in the program that I need."

"It is remarkably easy to configure and code, and it doesn't require an extensive technical background or coding expertise."

"The standout features of SAP Intelligent RPA are its flexibility and integration capabilities."

"Scalability is fine. It is pretty nice."

Cons

"AutomationEdge's primary issue is its price point, especially compared to other products."

"In the future, they should have a similar version for the cloud and on-premises, and the installation should be flawless within few minutes."

"The installation process could improve. It was difficult to complete."

"We cannot use extra modules while working with AutomationEdge. It crashes if we have lots of data to process in Excel."

"The ease of use is the main thing on which they really have to focus. If they want to go against the giants, it should be improved in ease of use, and it should be more user-friendly. It would be helpful because everyone should be empowered irrespective of whether they know how to code or not. They should enhance its user interface and make it more intuitive."

"There are some shortcomings in the product's stability that need improvement."

"The price of the solution could be improved."

"It's not an intuitive tool."

More AutomationEdge cons

"The tool's licensing has been kind of a challenge...At the moment, the tool does not offer different licensing models to users."

"The initial setup is of medium complexity. It is neither too hard nor too simple. You need some background in SAP and an understanding of it."

"I found that the SAP scripting of a program is easier than SAP Contextor."

"For potential features or improvements, one aspect I would suggest enhancing is the flexibility of the extraction process."

"One way SAP Intelligent RPA could improve is by integrating built-in DI services for document processing."

"SAP Contextor could improve by automating some processes."

"I would like to see a better capacity for unstructured data, for example, PDF, or text within images."

"There should be more of an error, like a proper error feature, in future releases. Sometimes, we don't understand why that automation is not learning what, like, where it is stuck, or what is the reason like, or what is the criteria we are missing to add. So a proper error message would be helpful."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is expensive but its value can justify the cost."

"The licensing for this solution should have a more competitive pricing model. The price is in the top five of similar products."

"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."

"I give the price of the solution a nine out of ten."

"Price-wise, AutomationEdge is pretty affordable, making it not so expensive when you compare this with other tools in the market."

"The product is available at the lowest price."

"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 initial cost might seem higher, but over time, with continued use over five or ten years, the cost tends to decrease, making it a more economical choice."

"It all comes with a bundle right now. Having advanced features, it is competitively priced."

"The pricing is not that expensive. It is manageable."

"This is not a tool or software with a license as others are. The SaaS model is based on the usage of the tool."
