Senior Rpa Consultant at a computer software company with 51-200 employees
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.

Corporate Development Specialist at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
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

"Automation Anywhere is a very good solution if you're looking to expand all your work areas."
"The ability to drag and drop various components and the customizability are good features."
"We have automized the day-to-day work of their order management system."
"The solution is very stable. We don't have issues with bugs or glitches."
"BotFarm is an easy solution to use and the interface is better than older versions."
"From a solution standpoint, screen capture and tight integration with Outlook are valuable features."
"The solution has very good processes. It's very easy to deploy and has good reviews on it. It offers good automation and the solution has very good developers working on it."
"They recently released the newest version that has a good program flow, quality, and blueprints that are all good improvements to the automation, and they also have good integration with SAP."
"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"
"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 features of EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA that customers find most helpful include the easy understanding and good UI/UX."
"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."
"EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is more affordable than UiPath."
"The user interface is not complicated, even for new users. Two to three weeks is enough to get ahold of it."
"Good email automation and XL automation."
"The tool follows a role-based working model to create things. It helps to track what others are doing with the system."
 

Cons

"BotFarm newer version has been difficult to install, we have been in contact with the support on this matter."
"The only challenge that we have faced with BotFarm is that there is no continuous deployment."
"When somebody is just learning this product it can be difficult for them to understand, so improvements to the user interface would be helpful."
"The solution automation is incapable of interacting with our Pega software application development. It is based on the nested table concept and it is unable to read these tables."
"The implementation isn't straightforward. It's a bit complex in terms of deployment as there are a lot of settings you need to handle."
"The licensing schemes could be more competitive. They need to be much more flexible in their pricing."
"It should be easier to create an environment for bots to operate in. There should be more support for developing in environments such as Citrix and Linux."
"The OCR tool, the optical character recognition tool, could be more efficient."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"We provide them with consulting and strategy advisory services, but we have never recommended any organization to use EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA."
"Lacks integration with third party tools."
"We provide them with consulting and strategy advisory services, but we have never recommended any organization to use EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing for this solution can be better."
"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."
"The product is slightly expensive"
"The solution prices are expensive. It would be more beneficial for customers to lower the pricing."
"Automation Anywhere is more reasonable than Blue Prism and UiPath in terms of cost."
"An unattended bot license costs around $5,000, whereas an attended bot license costs roughly $1,500."
"I am very happy with the pricing."
"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."
"EdgeVerve AssistEdge RPA is cheaper compared to other RPA tools."
