Featured Reviews

Anabel Marco - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Ishmael Munyai - PeerSpot reviewer
With an easy initial setup phase in place, the tool needs to provide functionalities like web scraping to users
It is a very scalable solution. In ElectroNeek, you can build your project in modular programming or with the use of sub-programs. You can have a lot of sub-programs that make up a whole project. If you don't wanna use the drag-and-drop activities, you can use JavaScript or Python instead. So it's very useful when you are working with things such as SPS. Actually, you can write scripts to support all the product functionalities with Python and manage the product's functions. You will find a company named Apollo Studios on the website of ElectroNeek. I think they are one of the best companies in South Africa that entered into a partnership with ElectroNeek.
Abdul Quadir - PeerSpot reviewer
It has a lot of functionality, whatever we use, but a few things could be improved
Extracting tables from certain documents could be improved. The next product release should include a utility that provides HyperScience JSON output. It would be related to any application, like other platforms and include Power Apps. We need to impact their REST API, but we would need a connection bridge application. And the second feature would be HyperScience providing different outputs. At present, HyperScience only provides JSON output. If a business needs a different output, we must create the utility ourselves and provide that data to XML or something similar. But if HyperScience could do that, we would no longer need third-party apps.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, the whole product is really nice and provides significant benefits."
"It gives us a central place to schedule tasks and run them distributed."
"Fortra's Automate has effectively replaced the workload of an entire employee, saving us significant time and money."
"The product effectively handles all the tasks we require."
"We use it for specific cases, mainly secure file transfers, which are vital for us. And it works for us."
"I actually quite liked the no-coding functionality."
"The solution is continuously adding more integrations to help with workflows and bot and task creation."
"It's very easy to use. That's a big selling point for it. It has got a drag-and-drop interface, so you can quickly deploy bots."
"ElectroNeek was extremely easy to use, especially its UI was easy to navigate with limited training."
"The solution is user-friendly with a really good UI and ID."
"The cost is the best thing about ElectroNeek."
"My favorite feature is that you can have unlimited bots without having to buy more licenses. That's a powerful option for scalability."
"We find the OCR feature very valuable, due to the corrector recognition that it provides; this is very useful for document processing."
"The product's setup is straightforward."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The drag and drop feature, which is no code, is very useful for me because I am not a technical person. It is very user-friendly."
"It provides the best accuracy for handwritten forms, which is a struggle in the industry. You can take processes with a lot of manual work and streamline them through this tool."
"We have seen pretty good accuracy."
"What I liked more about HyperScience was the quality of the OCR it is a lot better compared to Google."
"Valuable features include tools like IQ Bot and the ability to extract handwritten documents with 93-95 per cent accuracy."
"Has algorithms that can detect a document template even if the image has a lot of distortions."
"One of the most valuable features of HyperScience is the user-training module. Whenever the extraction takes place, based on the way we have trained HyperScience, it would give us some success status or a certain confidence level. If the solution has processed something that it determined was not extracted correctly it will queue those items for manual review."
"I like that compared to other tools, HyperScience works best with handwritten documents."
 

Cons

"The product also has a limited use case in some respects."
"I would like the updates to be easier to deploy. Integration with Amazon S3 is somewhat lacking."
"I would prefer not having to log in to update a ticket; being able to respond via email would be beneficial."
"They do not encrypt passwords, so this is an issue with HIPAA compliance."
"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."
"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."
"I believe we need to test various OCR tools that assist in evaluating, let's say, six different customer resyncs. We analyze their spending patterns and documentations, but current OCR support has limitations, requiring highly standardized documents, which isn't always the case. With a more advanced OCR system, we could improve processes related to credit risk management and legal matters. We're exploring how to integrate Fortra's Automate with our CRM platform, taking cues from instances where Salesforce seamlessly merged with Automate. However, we use a different CRM, Insight for New Enterprise, and we're seeking ways to connect the automation process within our CRM. We aim for the automation to continue smoothly, even in instances where traditional automation methods might face hurdles."
"The solution has a very weak knowledge base."
"ElectroNeek comes with three activities and we cannot add activities like we can with uiPADs."
"Its price could definitely be lower."
"I think that this solution could improve remote desktop interactions."
"The solution needs to improve its stability."
"The pricing is an area with a shortcoming, and from an improvement perspective, it needs to be made cheaper."
"It's not applicable to very large enterprises and for difficult work or more complex processes."
"The integrating capability of the product needs to be improved, to ensure that it works with all systems involved in a process."
"When I wanted to use web scraping for tables in web applications, I found through online forums that such functionality or activity is currently not working as it shows."
"HyperScience could improve the unstructured data extraction feature."
"They could work on the price and make it a bit more reasonable."
"HyperScience has less capability while working on unstructured forms. Unstructured forms are those where there is no standard structure and the information can be anywhere on the form. They need to develop this capability."
"The solution lacks support for a greater range of languages."
"No solution is perfect and there are several different scenarios that could be improved in HyperScience. One area is where there are multiple tables in the same form I have seen HyperScience struggle. There is some issue with supporting the extraction from multiple tables involved on the same form. If this could improve, it would be a big benefit."
"Extracting tables from certain documents could be improved."
"The product's usability could be better. The first pain point is that we're getting the output in a different format, and we were expecting a different timetable. The second point is that if you want better results, HyperScience says you have to configure a minimal PDF or a maximum of 400 PDFs. If you want results with 400 PDFs for what's written by these doctors, then you also configure the maximum of 400 templates for that. So, it's essentially a lack of support from HyperScience. In the next release, it would be better if failure scenarios were reduced. It would also help if they offered different formats, inputs or injections, and added different scenarios."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Once you buy the software, you just pay for the support for backend help."
"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."
"From a distributor's perspective, one of the biggest selling points of Automate is its price point."
"Compared to other products, the pricing model for this solution is much more convenient, flexible, and adaptable to the Portuguese reality."
"It comes with a package that costs approximately $20,000 USD per year."
"I like the way this solution is priced because you can buy a license, or you can buy the software outright."
"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."
"My company has made a payment towards the purchase of a license from ElectorNeek."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing a seven."
"I give the price an eight out of ten."
"It's very affordable and the licensing is billed on a yearly basis."
"I believe we had a Silver Membership or something similar annually."
"Its price could definitely be lower. Its licensing is on a yearly basis. There is no additional cost to the standard licensing fees."
"I think HyperScience is cheaper when compared to other tools. They also have a lifetime licensing option."
"I don't have any idea about the licensing costs, but I know that there was a per-page charge. They had different models of pricing. One of them was based on the minimum number of pages, and we had a fixed price. So, the price model depends on the volume that is coming through HyperScience."
