Automation has streamlined client data extraction and has improved reporting for business decisions
I work as a developer, and my manager is responsible for the research and analytics for the project with the client and business users. I am satisfied with BotFarm. I would rate my experience with BotFarm an eight out of ten. I do not see any room for improvement for BotFarm. I am using AI tools such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure, and ChatGPT. I am not using AI-powered bots in BotFarm. I am a partner with Automation Anywhere.

Offers a user-friendly interface but lacks enterprise-level features
EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is not difficult to deploy and the process was fine. Concerning deployment time, it usually takes one or two days. It totally depends upon the number of use cases and the processes where we are implementing. It might take weeks as well, depending upon the process in which we are implementing.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is very stable. We don't have issues with bugs or glitches."
"The solution has very good processes, is very easy to deploy, has good reviews, offers good automation, and has very good developers working on it."
"One of the most valuable features is the solution's simple automation regarding object cloning and strings variables."
"BotFarm is an easy solution to use and the interface is better than older versions."
"Automation Anywhere provides and facilitates cloud service, which means you can access your license from anywhere, easily executing and developing your bots from anywhere in the world."
"We use this solution for automating the gathering of information from 15 disparate applications, with several bots in customer service and finance to increase efficiency and reduce manual work in different areas."
"The solution seems to offer high stability. We haven't seen any bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze."
"Automation Anywhere has good document extraction features where it can learn patterns."
"EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is more affordable than UiPath."
"AssistEdge made it so that the reps didn't need to maneuver through 10 or 20 different systems. We tied all that together in the background, so the reps had a shared UI, and everything else happened in the background without their knowledge. When they were retrieving data, it was done in the background through automation and pulling up to that generic UI layer"
"Good email automation and XL automation."
"The features of EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA that customers find most helpful include the easy understanding and good UI/UX."
"The user interface is not complicated, even for new users. Two to three weeks is enough to get ahold of it."
"The tool follows a role-based working model to create things. It helps to track what others are doing with the system."
"There are some typical features I like such as email automation, XL automation, some AI/ML capabilities that are evolving, but are not quite mature yet, and I like the website automation."
"The feature I like the most is the ability to capture elements easily, especially when automating web-based applications. Additionally, I find the SAP connectors to be quite beneficial."
 

Cons

"The discovery suite that they just acquired could be included."
"The machine learning needs to be improved so that they perform better in terms of predictive analysis and sentiment analysis."
"The image processing capabilities definitely need to be improved."
"The solution can improve the accuracy of hand-written data reading"
"The discovery suite that they just acquired could be included."
"The pricing of this product could be better."
"The stability needs to be improved."
"The deployment could be made a little bit easier."
"In my opinion, areas for improvement in this solution lie in handling documentation, especially when dealing with data from various layouts or formats like scanned PDFs. Currently, new features are emerging in other tools, like generative AI, that could enhance these aspects."
"AssistEdge isn't a simple tool like Blue Prism or other RPA solutions with configurable items that you can drag and drop. This involved a lot of hard coding, which posed two challenges. One, we did not have that skillset, so we depended on Infosys. Two, it's a beast to go back and update or make changes when things are hard coded because you can't just move those configurable items back around."
"The solution could be improved if it provided integration with third party tools like Python, native integration, which is very important."
"The tool's alternatives work on drag-and-drop functionality without creating custom code. We don't have an in-built queue system and use RabbitMQ for it. The solution also doesn't have a framework."
"We provide them with consulting and strategy advisory services, but we have never recommended any organization to use EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA."
"We provide them with consulting and strategy advisory services, but we have never recommended any organization to use EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA."
"There should be more activities like extraction for reading or converting PDFs. There are fewer activities compared to other tools. There are no custom activities."
"Lacks integration with third party tools."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"An unattended bot license costs around $5,000, whereas an attended bot license costs roughly $1,500."
"The license of this solution is on an annual basis. The price is fair. However, what we did initially was a POC, but now we are looking at moving from a POC to expanding it out further. I would appreciate some kind of discount."
"The pricing model could be simplified."
"The starter price is free."
"We pay approximately $15,000 USD per year."
"The product is slightly expensive"
"Its price is quite high as compared to other solutions, but it has a lot of features and good stability. They should reduce its price."
"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."
"EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is cheaper compared to other RPA tools."
