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.

Helped us identify areas where frontline staff aren't following standard procedures or using unexpected systems, giving us better insight into our end users' workflows

To analyze and make sense of the data generated by Kryon process discovery can be a lot of effort. It's not as automatic as some might think. It really depends on how many processes you have and how actively you use them. But the scalability aspect isn't necessarily about deployment or technical maintenance. It's really about how you analyze and gain insights from the data gathering. I'd rate the scalability a seven out of ten because the solution has been scaling well for a long time. It's very easy to deploy. But getting value out of it at scale can be a challenge, just like with any deployment. We use it mainly for process discovery. We actually proceed it from different teams. So, we have 15 licenses that we rotate with different people, actually through different teams. So, we do discovery for the online team; we gather the results after about two weeks to a month. We analyze those results, and then we deploy them again on the analytics team. We regularly deploy it to different teams. So, it's in constant use. It just runs on the systems through discovery mode most of the time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

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

"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."

"The most valuable features of Fortra's Automate include its FTP functionality and file manipulation capabilities."

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

"A great feature that you seldom see in these kind of systems is the ability to use a database as trigger to launch a task. This is something I asked for a few years ago and that was added."

"We use it for specific cases, mainly secure file transfers, which are vital for us. And it works for us."

"The interface is simple, user-friendly, and very intuitive."

"I actually quite liked the no-coding functionality."

More Automate pros

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

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

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

"The user-friendly environment allows for easy learning, and the end-to-end workflow management is excellent."

"The recording capability is valuable because of the amount of data it captures automatically. It's quite good. It means less development, and fewer configuration settings to fill in after you're done."

"Nintex RPA often includes security features, including encryption and user access controls, which ensure the protection of sensitive data and compliance with security standards."

"We use PowerBuilder as our application building codex. Kryon adds flexibility when we have the functionality of SQL, where we can take sets of data out of the back-end and run complex computations or do a bunch of data validations inside the wizard. It can save us sometimes dozens of steps, then if we were to try and do those same reviews using the user interface completely. The balance that we get from using Kryon RPA, alongside being able to screen scrape and frequent screen, gives us an advantage that we haven't had previously with any of our other attempts at robotic process automation."

"Kryon will allow you to automate processes fast and easy and you do not need to be a developer to automate processes."

"The most valuable features for our organization are the automatic processes which save main power in the back office."

"Attended automation has diverted 34 percent of training calls to our tech support centers."

"The task mining aspect has been the most valuable for us. That's why we actually bought it."

More Nintex RPA pros

Cons

"I currently have three bugs open with them that I don't know if they are addressed in the new release."

"They do not encrypt passwords, so this is an issue with HIPAA compliance."

"The documentation is not that great."

"The interface could be more user-friendly and easier to navigate."

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

"The vendor is currently working on a solution that allows us to automatically create a process that is based on a document that we receive via email."

"While this solution is continually improving, as it is now, the user interface could use improvement when I compare it to a product like UiPath."

"The intelligent automation feature could be improved. It's interesting because it's simple, but the automation quality isn't always good. It's easy to use, but sometimes you need to make a slight improvement to the automation, and that's not so easy."

More Automate cons

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

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

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

"We need stronger governance to know, when a transaction is done, whether it worked or failed; strong logging. That would be helpful."

"We need better training and community support in Indonesia."

"There could be some features to fix compatibility issues with firmware."

"We would like to see having a little more specific documentation, or some of the examples be easier to find. One of the big things that we get directed to now is the Kryon Community page, but a lot of that wasn't in existence or publicized when we started doing our training and education. Now, we're stumbling through using it. For the majority of the time, we have either had to try and interpret what the instructions meant or do a service desk ticket."

"The only unstable part is Studio where you build this stuff. In our version, the 5.25. It has a memory leak. If you leave it open for too long, eventually it just freezes. Saving your work, closing, and opening it just once a day is all it takes. However, this is a bug that I have noticed about the stability of the actual tool."

"Kryon could be easier to use, especially in comparison to UiPath."

"Extracting meaningful data requires significant effort. You need a dedicated business analyst who can understand the output."

"Kryon RPA need to enhance the robustness of our multi-board architecture to ensure the availability of bots on multiple machines."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

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

"I like the way this solution is priced because you can buy a license, or you can buy the software outright."

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

"The pricing is quite reasonable. We can run the process with one bot. The limitation is at the server level because they have some resources, and sometimes that is enough. It isn't too expensive, so you can get a good return off of one, and you can also have a pack of five bots that is quite competitive."

"From a distributor's perspective, one of the biggest selling points of Automate is its price point."

"I'm only involved in running the product and maintaining the systems, so I can't speak to the cost."

"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."

More Automate pricing and cost advice

"The tool is expensive."

"We're paying in the neighborhood of about $66,000 a year. The cost is fairly similar to its competitors' costs. It might have been a little bit more reasonable than the others, and that cost was with Process Discovery in addition."

"Licensing costs are about $100,000 a year without any additional costs."

"We are probably saving $6000 to $8000 a month in labor costs. It's not a ton, but we're right around $60,000 to $80,000 a year with our current deployment."

"We have a yearly license. It's about $5,000 per year."

"The product has reasonable pricing."

"They license per robot and we have 25 robots. You get so many robot licenses and can allocate those licenses to either attended, unintended, or Process Discovery bots. If you have 25 licenses, for example, you could have 20 automation bots and five process discovery. This allocation is flexible. There are also maintenance costs."

"For an unattended robot it's $6000 a month."

"The price is affordable."
