Automates processes efficiently with cost-effective scaling and robust customer support

Web scraping is quite good since it offers a lot of possibilities. Another important feature for me is its compatibility with MBI, the Power that is ISEQUADO Centers. I appreciate the ability to scale and increase the number of bots or studios without additional expense. Automate's non-reliance on additional orchestrators makes it quite cost-effective.

Offers good UI but needs to improve its integration capabilities

Speaking about how the tool is useful in automating repetitive tasks in our company, I would say that my company started to collect data with the help of Datamatics while also using its GPS tracking features. The tool's UI is much better than the ones offered by other similar products in the market. I recommend the product to others who plan to use it. I suggest that others use their own method of interrogation since it will help them achieve more growth in their organizations through the use of the tool. I rate the tool a seven and a half out of ten.

Suitable for a small-scale business but not evolved enough for a large enterprise

The best thing with that Jacada is that they are a repository builder, which we use for our assessment to gauge and match screens. Jacada has evolved, but I'm not using the latest version. Technically we use our internal product more, which is iAutomate. We also use UiPath and Automation Anywhere…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."

"This product is quite easy to install, learn, and use, with our new employees being able to start using it in projects for clients after only two weeks of internal training."

"We are still in the process of rolling it to production and tweaking it (our AD groups are a mess), but the improvements are priceless. Having users ID's created the same way every time without human error is the best part. We don't need to worry about why groups were not added, user rights not set to folders or missing a private folder being created, typos or just even knowing when things are done and logged."

"I find the ease of use from a programming perspective very valuable."

"The most valuable feature is the drag-and-drop interface, which is very Windows-like."

"We have found the pricing to be very reasonable."

"I like the interface; it makes managing automation easy. We can set different schedules and templates for each task."

"The pricing is excellent. I would give them perfect marks in that regard."

More Fortra's Automate pros

"The solution is inexpensive compared to many other solutions in the market."

"Ability to calculate the ROI on the jobs that are running."

"The product's initial setup phase is straightforward and easy to use."

"The initial setup was fairly straightforward."

Cons

"The documentation is not that great."

"The product also has a limited use case in some respects."

"It's possible that they could use a stronger community for seeking guidance and help."

"There is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."

"The documentation for errors needs improvement as many of the error messages we receive are very vague."

"Error messages should be better. For error status, there should be better documentation because a lot of times, error messages that you get are quite vague. For example, you get a message saying that the workflow has run into an unknown status, which is vague. It just tells you that it failed, but you don't know how or why it failed. It makes debugging difficult."

"I find that most important features are strong, however, there is a lack of good development for artificial intelligence, such as machine learning."

"I would like the updates to be easier to deploy. Integration with Amazon S3 is somewhat lacking."

More Fortra's Automate cons

"The stability of the product has certain shortcomings, making it an area where improvements are required."

"There is a learning curve, and some training could be included to bring users up to speed."

"Would like to see more additions to the library."

"They need to create a workflow system."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Once you buy the software, you just pay for the support for backend help."

"While solutions like UiPath and Blue Prism cost around $11,000-$12,000 for each license, this product costs around $7,000 and you can keep it forever."

"It has gone up in price. The price of Fortra's Automate has increased since we first started using it. It does a lot but also costs a lot. It was a lot more affordable before Fortra owned the software."

"Compared to other products, the pricing model for this solution is much more convenient, flexible, and adaptable to the Portuguese reality."

"The cost is a bit high for a small business like ours, but we manage with Fortra's Automate."

"From a distributor's side, one of the biggest selling points is its price point. Without going into any numbers, compared to UiPath, Automation Anywhere, and Blue Prism, we're significantly cheaper. The main difference is that other competitors usually charge you per process. However, in Automate's case, it's priced per bot. So, a bot can run multiple processes at the same time, but you are only priced for a single bot."

"I believe the price falls within a reasonable range, which significantly influenced our decision regarding the product. This aspect is crucial for any technological solution, especially in our country where enterprises might be hesitant to invest heavily in something untested or uncertain about its practicality and potential returns."

"It comes with a package that costs approximately $20,000 USD per year."

While assisted service aptly describes the human-touch component, intelligent agent engagement more accurately describes the human-touch fueled with technology to drive improved operational efficiency. Intelligent agent engagement is about transforming complex agent desktops, a variety of channels (voice, chat, email, etc) and complex processes (troubleshooting, complicated products, regulatory) into an operationally efficient customer service experience.
